I'm 23 now and have had this small lesion on one side of my scrotum since I was 14. Occasionally, I notice some black colored dead skin coming off it. I looked it up online, and it seems like it might be angiokeratoma. It's not painful, but I'm worried because it seems to be spreading slowly. Should I be concerned or get it checked out?

I'm hoping to get some advice on using erytop cream for my acne. Should I be applying it in the morning or at night? Also, I'm 22 and just a bit concerned about any side effects if I use it for a long time. What's your take on that?

For acne treatment with Erytop cream, it is usually recommended to apply it at night before bedtime. Cleanse your face before applying a thin layer of Erytop cream on the affected areas. As for long term use, Erytop cream may cause side effects such as dryness, redness, peeling, or irritation of the skin. It is important to use a good moisturizer and sunscreen during the day while using Erytop cream to minimize these side effects.
