Why do I have swelling, burning, and wounds behind pennis head?

Swelling and burning sensation behind pennis head area also small wounds there

1 Answer

Answered on 23rd May '24

It seems to me that you might have a condition known as balanitis. This is a term used when there is some swelling, burning and small sores on the skin behind the head of the penis (foreskin). Tight clothing or poor hygiene can lead to this. Try washing gently with warm water and mild soap. Avoid wearing tight clothes and keep the area dry. If it does not improve then see a urologist who will probably prescribe medicine for it.

My face is burn from sun please give advice

Male | 32

Sunburn can happen when your skin gets too much sunlight. It may feel red, hot, and painful. To cool the sunburn, you can try putting cool cloths and aloe vera gel on your skin. Avoid sun exposure until your skin has healed. Drink plenty of water to help your skin recover faster. Always use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun.

My left leg is wounded and have swelling by itching.

Male | 56

Looks like you got a wound in your left leg that’s swollen and itchy. Swelling and itching can occur when the body is healing a wound. It might be infected or irritated. To relieve these symptoms, ensure the wound is clean, use a mild antiseptic, and elevate your leg to reduce swelling. Change dressings frequently to prevent infection.

Just wanna know something,my upper lip is tanned whole the lower is pink which looks weird,want to know what to do in this situation!!

Male | 18

A tanned upper lip and pink lower lip might seem perplexing, but it’s pretty common. The simplest explanation would be sun exposure since our upper lips are generally more affected by the sun than our lower ones are. To tan less and protect your lips, you should always apply sunscreen before going out into the sun; if you want extra protection, use SPF lip balm as well. Eventually, the colors will even themselves out.

Suffering from molluscum contagiosum

Male | 23

You may have molluscum contagiosum, a viral skin infection that causes small bumps with a white or shiny center. These bumps can appear on your face, neck, arms, or other body parts. It spreads through direct contact. Treatment may include creams, but sometimes the bumps go away. Keep the area clean and avoid scratching to prevent spreading it to others.

My boyfriend has an infected wound in his calf which started of as a small itchy spot that later became a red spot and later an infected wound that's made his the surrounding area swollen right down to his ankles. The glands in his groin are now painful too. Please advise what type of antibiotic would be suitable for this?

Male | 41

Your boyfriend may have a severe skin infection that’s spreading. The redness, swelling, and pain—coupled with swollen glands in the groin—indicate that it might be a bacterial infection. To cure this, he may require a course of antibiotics such as penicillin or cephalosporin which can help to fight off the infection. It is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

I am Mayank who is 15 years old and at the age of 15 I have a lot of white hair and I want to cure them, please tell me some medicine or remedy

Male | 15

Finding white hair in a young person can be a surprise. It's often mainly because of genetics, stress, or unnatural deficiency of some nutrients. Don't be afraid, however, it's normal. As a preventive measure, eat a healthy balanced diet full of vitamins and minerals and manage stress. You may also opt for milder hair products and refrain from heat treatments.

I'm 17 years old and having acne and pimple on face. I want to get rid of it. I need any cream for this case

Male | 17

Dealing with pimples and acne can be frustrating, but it's normal for your age. These skin issues happen when hair follicles get clogged with sebum and dead skin cells, leading to red bumps, whiteheads, or blackheads. Try using an over-the-counter acne cream with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to help clear them up. Wash your face regularly and avoid scrubbing too hard. Also, avoid touching your face, as it can make things worse. Eating a nutritious diet and drinking plenty of water will help keep your skin healthy.
