I have this 12 inch bump on my nose that just won't go away. I usually don't have acne-prone skin, but my nose pores tend to get clogged and form these flesh-tone bumps. Normally they're not a big deal, but one of them turned into this huge red bump that's really painful. It started with a lot of pain and now it's just a bump with blood and some clear fluid, but no pus. I've tried everything I can think of and it's still there. Any ideas on what this could be or how I can make it go away?

Sounds like you may be dealing with a stubborn cyst or abscess on your nose. In such cases, a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin can help prevent infection and promote healing. You can apply it to the affected area twice a day. Additionally, warm compresses can help reduce inflammation and promote drainage. If the bump does not improve or if you develop fever or worsening pain, it's important to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation and possible drainage.

Question

I'm a 20-year-old and I've been wondering if frequently masturbating has any impact on my testosterone levels or beard growth. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I'm really worried about this itchy groin I've had for the past couple of years. I tried using clobenategm last month for about ten days, and it seemed to clear up, but then the itch came back worse and started burning too! Now, I'm trying candidb clotrimazole gel but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. Do you have any advice on what I should do next? I'm really desperate for a solution.

Question

I'm really worried about this issue I've been having for the past 4 years. It's not hereditary; I'm pretty sure it's because of my allergies, like the running nose and watery eyes. I know sticking to a healthy diet might help over time, but right now, I need something more immediate. I've heard about treatments like Chemical Peeling and Laser Treatments, but Im not sure which one would be best for me. And I've come across different creams, but dont know which ones to try. Can you help me figure this out?
