I have a lot of moles on my neck and throat, and they don't look great. Is there any way to remove them without surgery? I'm a bit worried about how they look and want to explore other options first.

Yes, it's possible to remove moles without surgery, but it's crucial to have them evaluated by a doctor first to rule out any potential concerns, especially if you're worried about their appearance or a possible link to skin cancer. Several non-surgical methods can be used, such as laser removal, cryotherapy (freezing), electrocautery (burning), and chemical peels.

I've been dealing with a boil on my buttock, and after finishing a 5-day course of antibiotics yesterday, it developed a white head today. When I did a warm compression, it released some pus and then blood. I cleaned it up and covered it with cotton, but an hour later, I noticed blood on the cotton. I washed it again, but the bleeding didn't stop. What should I do?

The boil on your buttock has likely come to a head, released pus and blood, and is now in the process of healing; however, given the continued bleeding, it's essential to monitor the wound closely, keep it clean, and apply antibiotic ointment to promote healing and prevent infection; if the bleeding persists, increases, or is accompanied by increased pain, redness, or swelling, seek medical attention from a healthcare professional or a dermatologist for further evaluation and guidance.

I'm supposed to use candid LA ointment on my penis, but the tube I have doesnt mention LA, nor does it say Candid B. Are these two different creams? Also, what's the right way to apply it? Should I retract the foreskin, apply the cream, and then put the foreskin back, or apply the cream, wash it off, and then restore the foreskin?
