My friend has been dealing with an itchy sensation on his thighs near his private area for about two weeks now, where the legs meet. At first, he thought it might be a daad, so he tried using ring guard and other similar treatments, but the itching just keeps getting worse. Can you tell me what this might be and suggest what he should do?

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.

View allI'm really worried about something going on with my scrotum skin. It's gotten really dry, wrinkled, tight, and it's itching a lot, with a bit of redness too. I've tried using talcum powder and moisturizing cream, which helps for a bit, but then the itching comes back. This has been happening for the past couple of days. Could this be just from sweating, or is there a chance it could be something more serious?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a case of scrotal dermatitis, which can be caused by various factors including sweating, irritation, or fungal infection. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid using talcum powder as it can sometimes worsen the condition.

I've been using an IPL hair removal device at home and I started noticing that after a few sessions, two new moles appeared and an existing mole got darker and looked different. So I stopped using it after that. It's been almost a year since then but I'm still worried. Should I be concerned about these changes?
Thats clearly due to allergy,you are allergic to hair removal substances avoiding them is the only solution that you have and visit Dermatologist for appropriate management
