I've noticed black spots on my ankles and I'm kinda worried. I don't see any other symptoms or problems, but some friends mentioned I should maybe see a doctor about it. Could you explain why these black spots might be appearing? And is there anything I can do to get rid of them?

I've been dealing with some white patches near my anus, and occasionally they get quite itchy. It's really frustrating, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you suggest any medicine or treatment that might help with this issue? I'm eager to find a solution soon.

The white color near your anus could be due to a fungal infection, such as candidiasis. Here's a possible solution: *Over-the-Counter (OTC) Medications* 1. *Clotrimazole cream*: An antifungal cream that can help clear up the infection. 2. *Miconazole cream*: Another antifungal cream that can be effective. *Home Remedies* 1. *Keep the area clean*: Wash with mild soap and lukewarm water. 2. *Dry the area*: Pat dry with a clean towel. 3. *Wear loose clothing*: Avoid tight clothing that can irritate the area.

I don't know what's going on, but for the past two years, my dad keeps getting these sudden scratches on his skin. We've consulted a few doctors, but nothing seems to work. Can you help us figure out what's causing this?

That looks like keratosis pilaris? if it is so take bath twice daily and use good moisturizer two times a day that will work , if it still persists visit dermatologist topical lotions.

I'm noticing a small spot on my hand that's kind of a light pink or white color, definitely lighter than my skin. It's about 12mm and it's the only one I have on my whole body. I'm really curious if this could be vitiligo. Could that be possible?

Yes you can have it no problem
