I have a few pits on my nose around 3cm in size along with many smaller ones that seem to produce oil and a white creamy substance. Can this be treated without plastic surgery or would I need it? I'd also like to improve the shape of my nose what options do I have for that?

The bumps and pits on your nose, along with the oily and white substance, likely indicate sebaceous hyperplasia and sebaceous filaments. These are benign skin conditions that can be managed with skincare routines and treatments. For nose reshaping, rhinoplasty (either surgical or non-surgical) is an option.

View allI've been dealing with molluscum for about three months now, and it's been really frustrating. I've been visiting a dermatologist every week, and they keep removing around 45 pimples on my face each time using needling. My doctor suggested I use a spray called Glizigen four times a day and also take some tablets to boost my immunity. But honestly, I'm not really seeing much improvement. Is there something more I should be doing, or does this treatment just take more time to show results?
it takes time have patience,it will heal with time follow your doctors advise and maintain healthy lifestyle

I've had issues before with redness and sores on my penis, and during the lockdown, one dermatologist said it was genital herpes. He prescribed Acyclovir, but it didn't work, so I saw another dermatologist in person. She diagnosed it as a secondary bacterial infection and balanoposthitis, which cleared up after treatment. Out of curiosity, I got IgM and IgG blood tests for HSV 1 and 2, plus other STD tests, and everything came back negative. I repeated the tests after three months and they were still negative. Now, this year, I've noticed redness and a sore again. Should I be worried that it's herpes, or is it likely to be something else?
Given your previous history and negative blood test results for HSV 1 and 2, it is less likely that the current symptoms are due to herpes. It is important to consider other possible causes such as a fungal infection, contact dermatitis, or another type of bacterial infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 2 weeks to see if there is any improvement. If there is no improvement or if the symptoms worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
