Question

I've been dealing with these fordyce spots on my penile shaft and they just won't go away. My doctor suggested using Elocon cream, but it feels like it's just a temporary fix. The spots keep coming back and my skin gets all scaly and reddish, with some sensitivity. There's no discharge or pain, which is good, but it's still frustrating. What do you think I should do? Is there a better treatment or something I'm missing?

Question

I've been dealing with these itchy and painful bumps on my butt cheeks for over a decade now, and it's pretty frustrating. They come and go, but they're mostly always there. I used to be able to squeeze out the pus, and it would help, but recently, it's like everything's hardened and I can't get any pus out anymore. Sometimes I notice the bumps showing up on my inner thighs and the sides of my waist, too. Do you have any advice or insight on what's going on and how I might manage this?

Question

I've been noticing this red and black spot on my right breast for a couple of days now, and there's like this light redness around it. It's really hurting whenever I touch it, and it feels kinda uncomfortable around my right underarm. I'm worried about what it might be. Any idea what could be going on?

Question

I'm currently using the mx 10 topical solution for my hair, and I'm wondering which hair oil would be best to use alongside it. Could you please guide me on what might work well together or if there are any oils I should avoid? I'm a bit concerned about making the right choice.
