View allI've been noticing some hair loss around my sideburns, near my ears, and on my forehead, which is already pretty high, and even at the edges. I can feel some inflammation on my scalp in certain spots, although theres nothing visible. Its a bit uncomfortable, especially when I touch those areas. Should I be worried, or is there something I can do about it?
If the inflammation is related to seborrheic dermatitis or dandruff, a medicated shampoo with ketoconazole or salicylic acid may help reduce inflammation. For male pattern baldness, treatments like minoxidil (Rogaine) or finasteride (Propecia) can help slow down hair loss and promote regrowth. If its a condition like alopecia areata or psoriasis, your doctor may recommend topical steroids or immune-modulating creams.consult your demat

I'm dealing with some pigmentation or maybe a fungal infection on my bum cheeks, and it's super itchy all the time. Is it normal for these spots to make my skin turn darker, almost black? How can I treat this?
It sounds like you might have a fungal infection or pigmentation causing the itching and darkening on your bum cheeks. Its important to keep the area clean and dry. You should consider consulting a doctor for appropriate antifungal treatment and to check if there's any underlying issue.
