I'm 19 and dealing with acne. I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take CIPRODAC 500 as an antibiotic just once a day. Would that be okay for my skin, or is there something else I should consider? Just trying to figure out the best way to handle this.

Ciprodac 500, containing ciprofloxacin, is typically prescribed for bacterial infections, and while it may help with acne caused by bacterial overgrowth, it's essential to consult a dermatologist before taking it, as antibiotics can have side effects, and acne treatment usually involves topical retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, or hormonal therapies, and not necessarily oral antibiotics like ciprofloxacin.

View allI'm a bit worried about my health because I've been shaking my penis every day. I've noticed I'm not feeling as good as I used to. Could this be causing my health issues? And if so, how can I stop this habit?
Shaking or overstimulating the penis frequently can lead to soreness, fatigue, and reduced energy, potentially affecting overall health if excessive. Try to reduce the frequency gradually and engage in other activities like exercise or hobbies to manage urges. If it's difficult to control, consider talking to a psychologist for additional support.

I've been dealing with these itchy rashes for about four months now, and they're driving me crazy! They feel like there's tiny needles pricking me, and my heart starts racing. They start out small but then get really big, and it's mostly at night. It's all over my body, even on my head, and especially bad on my legs. Sometimes I can't breathe well, and my lips and face swell up, which is really scary. My eyes get puffy too. The rashes leave these brown marks on my skin after the itchiness goes down. I'm really worried because no one seems to know what's going on. Can you help me figure out what's happening?

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
