View allHey, I'm kind of worried because the skin on the head of my penis is peeling and it's getting red. I'm not sure what to do about it. If anyone has any advice or suggestions, it'd be really helpful.
You may be experiencing symptoms of balanitis, which is inflammation of the head of the penis. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (Canesten) twice a day on the affected area after gently cleaning it with warm water. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, avoiding irritants such as harsh soaps, and wearing loose-fitting underwear can help with the healing process. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with a fungal infection for the past two years and have been using sulfur 30 and tellurium 30, along with bc20 tablets for about a month now. Things seemed to be improving, but the itching has started up again recently. Could you offer some guidance on what might be causing this or suggest a way to get the itching under control?

I had an accident about 15 days ago and got hit near my eye. Now that the wound has healed, I've noticed dark marks forming there, and they seem to be getting even darker. I'm really worried about it. I'm currently using MemopiHC cream, and I'm wondering if I should continue with it or if there's a better option out there. If you think this is something serious, should I see a doctor right away?
no need to worry,such scars would take time to heal ,you can continue the cream that your using now and donot scratch the affected area.
