Why Do I Have Skin Patches Around My Testicles?

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.

You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.

Does Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim cure Chlamydia?

Male | 19

Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim also recognized as Bactrim is not usually used in treating chlamydia. This is because it is a bacteria that spreads through intimate contact. This may lead to painful urination, unusual discharge, and sometimes no signs at all. Normally, antibiotics such as azithromycin or doxycycline are used to cure chlamydia. If you suspect that you have the disease, it is important to get tested and treated so as to avoid any further complications.

I've been using Clobeta Gm for my face and it works great for my skin. I've used others Creams and serums suggested by doctors and some serums by watching online suggestions but this which I brought for some fungal infection works great for my skin on my face. I've used this before about 2 years back it worked before also but I've stopped using because of fear that this might cause any problems in my future but I'm these 2 years my acne got worse I've tried all possible sources but nothing did work for my skin. After losing hope i remembered this and now I started using this and again it gave me results. I don't if something is wrong with my skin or what works for it. I just need a approval that this doesn't cause any future permanent damage in future and i also wanna know about this cream whether it is safe or not - it's clobeta GM cream ( clobetasol propionate,neomycin sulphate,miconaxole, zinc oxide and borax cream 20g) it's composition: clobeta propionate I.P 0.05% w/w ,Neomycin Sulphate I.P 0.5% w/w , Miconazole Nitrate I.P. 2.0 % w/w,Zinc Oxide I.P 2.5% w/w,Borax B.P. 0.05% w/w,Chlorocresol(as preservative) I.P. 0.1% w/w,Cream base.

Can I take glutathione for skin whitening

Male | 15

Glutathione isn't FDA approved for skin lightening.. Limited research available.. Possible side effects.. Discuss with doctor.. it is IMPORTANT to note that the use of glutathione for skin lightening comes with SERIOUS risks.. While it is MARKETED as a "natural" alternative to traditional skin lightening treatments, there is NO conclusive evidence to support its effectiveness.. The FDA HAS NOT approved glutathione for skin lightening purposes, which means that its safety and effectiveness have NOT been thoroughly tested

I have Fordyce spots or pimples or penile papules on bottom of my penis since 3 years I don't have any pain or rashes but they are spreading. Can you help me for my problem.

Male | 24

Fordyce spots are the glands which are present in everybody. These are normal and atomical structures that are more visible in few people and it is completely normal to have them. First it is advised to avoid treatment for the same. If somebody desires for cosmetic treatment then it can be taken care with radiofrequency ablation or carbon dioxide laser which will remove the glands.

I am a 21 year old female. I have a painless neck cyst of in the left size below ear of about pea size for 4-5 years. What should I do?

Female | 21

Such cysts can grow on your neck due to the blockage in the glands. It has been there for an elapsed time and no significant pain has occurred. That is probably nothing to worry about given the duration of its time there and the fact it is asymptomatic. Still, I strongly believe that expert attention from a doctor is needed.

A couple days ago i noticed a large lump underneath one of my armpits. a few weeks prior my armpit had been feeling very sore and painful but i just recently looked and saw a large lump and there was some sort of discharge leaking from it.. a few days later it’s gotten somewhat smaller but now there is a nasty raw scab growing around it and it hurts and itches. also the center of the lump is red and sticking outward and looks like it’s bleeding.

This could be a clue to some infection. See a dermatologist immediately for an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment. Immediate medical treatment is vital in such situations.

i am 32 year old female i have black heads problem in last 3 months and some black ots on hand and legs

Female | 32

Blackheads are small bumps that form when hair follicles get blocked by dead skin cells and excess oil. This can happen due to excess sebum, hormonal changes, or improper skin care. To reduce blackheads, use a gentle exfoliating scrub and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Always clean your skin well to avoid irritation and prevent the urge to squeeze blackheads.

My doctor prescribed me 100 mg of fluconazole but I accidentally bought 200 mg, should i still take it?

Taking more medicine­ than prescribed can be risky. Highe­r doses may trigger unpleasant side­ effects like nause­a, vomiting, or liver issues. Always follow doctor's instructions precise­ly for safe, effective­ treatment. If unsure, promptly consult your doctor before­ proceeding.

For hair loss. Already seen the doctor in the past for skin allergies and black heads etc

Female | 29

There are many causes for hair loss to occur. The usual reasons are stress, a poor diet, and hormonal imbalances. Signs of hair loss are noticing more hair falls than usual or a thinning of the strands. To alleviate hair loss, it is essential to control stress, eat a healthy diet rich in nutrients, and use gentle hair care products.
