Question

I've noticed that the skin around my penis and testicles has turned red and it's really itchy. It seems like there's some kind of sticky liquid discharge too. I've never been sexually active, so I'm unsure about what's happening. Could this be an infection or something else, and what should I do about it?

Use an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day on the affected area for 1-2 weeks. Keep the area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Question

I'm struggling with being really thin, almost underweight, and it's been tough because I really want to gain some weight. I've tried things like eating small meals and adding fruit juices, but nothing seems to work. I thought about using a mass gainer like Endura Mass, but every time I use stuff like that or even multivitamins, I get bad acne. I feel like using a mass gainer is my last option, but I'm worried about the acne coming back. Any advice on what I can do?

Question

I'm struggling with my moustache not growing in the middle, and it's been this way since I started noticing facial hair. My beard also isn't as dense as I'd like. Interestingly, my dad has a really full moustache. Could there be a genetic reason or something else at play here? What can I do to encourage more growth?

Question

I've got these pimple-like bumps on my scrotum. They don't itch or bleed, but when I saw a dermatologist, he said it's angiokeratoma. He assured me they're harmless and not sexually transmitted. He suggested laser treatment if I wanted to get them removed. I'm curious, does laser actually work to get rid of them? Also, if I go ahead with the laser treatment, will it show up in any medical tests, like when I'm applying for government jobs? Please help me understand what to expect.
