I've recently recovered from a jock itch infection in my groin area, but it's left the skin there really dark and blackened. The infection itself is gone and Im not having any symptoms now, but the skin hasn't gone back to normal. Is there anything I can do to help it heal or lighten back to its usual color?

I'm only 18, and I'm really worried because I'm facing pattern baldness at such a young age. I'm the only one among my peers with this V-shaped hairline; everyone else my age has a straight hairline. I feel like I'm odd one out and really don't know how to cope with this. Honestly, it makes me feel very self-conscious and upset. I'm aware that the usual treatments are things like propecia and rogaine, or finasteride and minoxidil, but I'm thinking about taking Dutasteride avodart instead. Could that be a good option for me? I'm just wondering if this will help or if there's something else I should consider. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I've been on Perfectil for a couple of months now as part of my PRP treatment for thinning hair. I think it's helping, but I've suddenly gotten a lot of acne, which I've never had before. Could Perfectil be causing this, and should I keep taking it? What would you advise?

Continue same treatment.

Hey, so I've noticed a weird lump on my buttocks that popped up last month. At first, I thought it was just a heat boil, so I used a pain relief patch and eventually thought it healed. But now it's come back, and I'm not sure what's going on. Do you have any idea what this could be or what I should do about it?

I'm not capable of viewing images, but based on your description, I strongly recommend consulting a doctor or dermatologist to examine the lump and determine the cause, as it could be a sign of an underlying condition, such as a cyst, abscess, or skin infection.
