Is a small whitehead on foreskin normal?

I have discovered a small lump on my foreskin. It looks like a small whitehead and doesn't hurt unless it's poked about, similar to a spot. Just want to know if this is normal?

You described a whitehead as a clogged sebaceous gland or harmless zit. These occur from time to time when sweat and oil get trapped. Unless it hurts or grows larger there is likely nothing to worry about. Keep it clean and don’t pick at it. Talking to a dermatologist is always a good idea if it changes or you are uneasy.

Hey doctor im sami and I'm feeling discomfort to touch my penis gland corona there is a sharp pain no any visble rashes and redness and i have fungal infection on jock and stomach near by private area

Male | 27

The feeling of unease, and the excruciating pain in the glans of your penis, however, might be attributed to this too. Moreover, fungi drive them to the irritation and pain path. Beware of the cleanliness of the area and drying, wear only airy clothes, and use the antifungal creams prescribed by doctor as these ways are also extremely effective. It is essential to cure it to be healthy and happy again!

I have an irritation on my inner thighs. Need to consult with doctor

Male | 31

This can happen due to friction from clothes, sweating, or reactions to certain products. Symptoms may include redness, irritation, or a burning sensation. To help, wear loose, comfortable pajamas, wash the affected area, and apply a gentle, unscented moisturizer if the skin is dry. If irritation continues or worsens, hydrotherapy—use water for wellness and relaxation.

I have dark spots on my face and it seems like Lichen Planus and how can I verify it?

Male | 23

Seeing a dermatologist for dark spots on your face is recommended to know what causes them. Lupus perchance is a skin disease with dark spots which no one can tell accurately unless a doctor does

I have a 14 year old daughter who has a had a itchy raised red puffy bump on her left shoulder the last two days. It happened in the middle of her basketball game. It has gotten worse from her bra strap and shirt rubbing against it. I want to know what it is and how to fix this mystery.

Female | 14

Looks like your daughter has a skin irritation that is contact dermatitis. One common type is contact dermatitis, which is caused by something rubbing against the skin and triggering redness, itching, and swelling. This thing might be her bra strap or shirt, which is the cause of the rash on her skin when it rubs against it while she is playing basketball, To make her feel better, try to use a soothing lotion or cream and let her put on clothes that are not tight enough to prevent rubbing as much as possible.

I have a rash on my armpits and on both but it mainly itches on my left armpit and I’ve tried putting on antibiotics cream and Benadryl cream and it still itches and not getting better I haven’t been putting on deodorant either because of it

Female | 33

It seems to be a fungal infection in your left armpit. I suggest you see a dermatologist to look into the rash, and get a medication accordingly. Deodorant should also be avoided as it might make the situation worse.
