I'm a 24-year-old guy and I've noticed this small white patch on both sides of my scrotum, right between my legs. It's kind of dry and sometimes it really itches. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?

Is it okay to use dermocalm lotion for pimples? I got viral fever a couple of days ago, and now I have a lot of pimples on my back because of the heat. Could you let me know if applying dermocalm would help with this?

It's not effective towards acne but your complaint is clear stating post fever rashes for such this cream would work,if not visit Dermatologist for appropriate treatment.

I've noticed some white patches on the skin of my penis. They don't really hurt, but they just seem odd to me. Could you guide me on where I should go for treatment and what type of doctor I should consult to address this issue?

I've noticed that the skin around the outside of my right toenail has gotten really soft and there's this watery liquid forming. Is this something I should be worried about, like an infection, and what steps should I take to treat it?

This sounds like you may have a paronychia, which is an infection of the skin around the toenail. You can try soaking your foot in warm water with Epsom salts a few times a day to help reduce the infection. You can also apply an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to the affected area. If the infection is severe or does not improve, you may need to see a doctor for further treatment.
