I noticed a red bump on my penis with some white liquid coming out but it doesn't hurt could this be an ingrown hair is it something serious or do I need surgery to fix it

A red bump on the penis with a white liquid discharge, if painless, could be an ingrown hair. Ingrown hairs are usually harmless and will resolve on their own, but if they become infected, they may require medical attention. In most cases, they do not require surgery

I've been using HH Zole cream on my face for a couple of years now, like every week on the 7th day, just as a regular face cream. Initially, I got it to treat an itching problem, which cleared up, but I kept using it. Could this be harmful if I continue this way? Is there something I should be worried about?

I'm really worried about my penis; there's this redness on the forehead of the skin and some small red bumps on the side. There's no itching or fluid, but it burns and irritates. I've been using Candida B, Onbet, and T Bact ointments and have tried various creams, but nothing seems to help. My skin is scratching and there's a red rash. What should I do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm 24 and have small xanthelasma under both eyes should I get them removed by a dermatologist or an ophthalmologist? Will they come back after surgery, and is there a risk of scarring?

Xanthelasma can be removed by dermatologist using laser or cautery; ophthalmologist is needed only if it's near eyelid margin—recurrence and mild scarring are possible.
