I've noticed some white patches popping up around my hairline and over my left eyebrow, and they seem to be multiplying. There's no pain, irritation, or itching, but I've been dealing with a dry scalp. I'm getting a bit worried about it. Could it be something serious? What should I do about it?

The white patches near your hairline and left eyebrow, accompanied by a dry scalp, could be indicative of pityriasis versicolor, a fungal infection, or possibly vitiligo, a condition causing skin pigmentation loss; consult a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment,

View allI've been struggling with this annoying itch around my groin and inside of my buttocks for about three weeks now. I started taking canditral, which seemed to help, but it made me really sleepy. I also tried sebifin 250, but I'm still not sure if it's working. What could be causing this itch, and should I continue with the same medication or try something else? I'm a bit worried about the side effects too.
Possible Causes_: Fungal infections, skin irritation, eczema, or dermatitis. _Next Steps_: 1. Re-evaluate Canditral usage. 2. Consider topical treatments like clotrimazole or hydrocortisone. 3. Maintain good hygiene.

I've been noticing a lot of people using Vaseline on their skin as some sort of moisture barrier, and I'm really not sure if that's safe or even right for me. I have combination skin that's also pretty acne-prone, and I'm worried about whether Vaseline could potentially mess things up. Do you think it's safe for me to try it, or should I steer clear?
