Question

I've recently noticed some white patches near my anus. There's itching, but no pain associated with it. This has never happened to me before, and it started appearing about a month ago. I'm a bit worried about what it might be and what I should do. Could you provide some insight or advice on this?

I'm considering using Dr. Reddy's Minoxidil topical solution USP 2 for hair regrowth, but I'm not sure if I need to see a doctor for a prescription first.
