So, I'm dealing with jock itch on my inner thighs and I'm wondering if it's still okay to keep up with my exercise routine. Is there any chance that working out could make it spread even more? I'm kind of worried about making it worse.

I'm African American and I've noticed my skin used to be much lighter, but over the past six years, it's gotten so dark that I can barely see myself at night. I spend most of my time indoors and rarely go out. I've tried skin bleaching products before, and they worked, but once I stop using them, my skin becomes darker again. Do you have any suggestions for lotions or treatments I could try to help with this?

I'm really worried about the dark, thick skin on my knees caused by Acanthosis nigricans. Are there any effective home remedies or natural ways to lighten this darkness and reduce the thickness of the skin? I'm a bit self-conscious about it and hoping for some guidance on what I can do at home.

For Acanthosis nigricans, it is important to address the underlying cause, such as obesity or insulin resistance. In addition to medical treatment, you can try using over-the-counter creams containing ingredients like retinoids or alpha hydroxy acids to help lighten the darkened skin. Moisturizing regularly can also help improve the appearance of the affected areas.
