Question

I'm worried because I think a fire ant might have bitten my testicle sacks. They're swollen now, and at first, it was really itchy, but that part has stopped. Should I be concerned about the swelling? What should I do next?

I've been using mintop for the past 30 days and haven't noticed any side effects so far. I'm thinking about continuing it for another 3 months, but I'm a bit worried about any long-term effects. Is there anything I should be aware of when using mintop 10 foam for an extended period?

Question

I'm dealing with some persistent itching on my scrotum, and it's been going on for over a month now. It looks like my skin is really dry, and when I scratch, the skin on the scrotum peels off and sometimes even starts bleeding. Are there any medications that might help with the itching and dryness?

Question

I've been dealing with some itching around my scrotum and penis area, and a urologist said its mild folliculitis baaltod. He suggested using a moisturizer and prescribed me Zocef 500, which I took for three days, then repeated for another three. I've also been applying Fourderm. It's been three weeks now, and while the itching is better, it's not completely gone. What should I do next?
