I'm really worried because I keep getting these ringworms and pustules only on my face, especially in the summer. I've had ringworm three different times in the last six years, but always just on my face and not elsewhere on my body. I'm not sure why this keeps happening. Could it be something specific to facial skin, or maybe it's related to something else I'm not aware of? Any advice on how to deal with this would be really appreciated.

Question

I've noticed that the roots of my frontal hair seem really short and thin, almost like there's no root at all, but the rest of my hair has strong, long roots. I'm really worried about this difference. What could be causing it, and how can I improve the condition of the roots in the front?

Question

I started feeling an itch on my testicles a couple of days ago and ended up rubbing the area quite a bit. Now there's a wound from the rubbing and it's pretty painful, especially when I move. What should I do about this? Is it something to be worried about or will it heal by itself?

Question

I'm really worried about this painful bump I have. A friend of mine went to a doctor who tried to squeeze a similar boil-like thing but nothing came out and it was really painful. That doctor prescribed antibiotics and told them to use cold compresses, but I think hot compresses might be more effective. Honestly, I wasn't too impressed with the doctor's approach. Can you help me figure out what this painful, swollen bump might be?
