I've noticed these white lines on the skin of my inner thighs. They seem a bit like stretch marks, but the skin feels thinner there. They don't hurt or itch, but they've been appearing more over the past three months and are getting longer. What's going on with my skin, and what should I do about it?

View allI've been dealing with constant dandruff and a really itchy scalp for quite a while now. Over the past two years, my hair's been thinning a lot. A couple of doctors mentioned it might be seborrheic dermatitis. I've got this white to yellowish grainy dandruff that sticks to my hair strands and roots. My scalp gets super oily and greasy really fast, like it's greasy the day after I wash it. There's also acne building up on my scalp, and the itchiness is through the roof. Currently, I'm using Hair4u serum daily, taking Vitamin 12, applying Noskarf lotion every other day, and shampooing regularly. I haven't been oiling my hair either. I've also tried natural remedies like apple cider vinegar and curd. But with the Hair4u 5% minoxidil, the itchiness seems to have gotten worse. I've experimented with so many things but haven't seen any improvement. Any advice on what I should do to tackle this and maybe help my hair grow back?
This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm reaching out because my skin doctor diagnosed me with ringworm and suggested I use Funginil soap and cream. It's been about a month now, but the ringworm hasn't gone away. Am I on the right track with this treatment?
Ringworm can sometimes be stubborn to treat. In addition to using funginil soap and cream, I recommend adding an antifungal medication like Terbinafine (brand name Lamisil) cream to your treatment regimen. Apply the Terbinafine cream twice daily for at least 2 weeks. If the ringworm persists, consult your doctor for further evaluation and possible oral antifungal medication.

I'm really looking to improve my skin's brightness and have a more radiant glow. Could you recommend any tablets or creams that could help me achieve a pure skin tone? I'm feeling a bit concerned and would love some advice on this.
I recommend using a combination of topical creams and oral tablets. You can start by using a skin brightening cream containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, and glycolic acid. Apply this cream once daily in the evening after cleansing your face. In addition, taking Vitamin C tablets can help improve skin brightness and promote a healthy glow. I recommend taking 500mg of Vitamin C daily. Remember to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further darkening. Consistency is key, so be patient and give these treatments time to show results.
