I'm a bit unsure about which to use for my woundshould I go with soframycin or cipladine powder? I usually clean the wound with hot water and Dettol, then let it dry before applying the powder. But when I clean it again the next day, it's kind of tricky. The wound is still wet, and there's some fluid coming out. Would using soframycin be a better option in this case?

It sounds like you're dealing with a wound that's still in the healing process and is somewhat moist, which is quite common in the initial stages of healing.Both can be effective, but Soframycin is usually recommended for burns, surgical wounds, or where moisture needs to be controlled, as it helps with tissue regeneration without drying the wound too much.

View allI'm dealing with this really annoying pain right at my tailbone and on the skin around it, exactly where the upper part of the butt cheeks meet. It usually flares up when I'm lying on my back and puts pressure on that area. Honestly, it's been so painful that it's making sleep tough. I've had a bed sore just above that spot for years, but it sorta dried up. This new pain started about a week ago. I'm really confused about whether this is a skin thing or more of a bone issue. Who should I talk to? Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

I've been dealing with some itching and redness on my penis and the surrounding areas lately. It's been bothering me so much that I decided to apply an antibacterial and antifungal cream for about 4-5 days now, but I'm not really seeing much improvement. I'm starting to get a bit worried about what could be causing this and whether there's something else I should be doing. Is there a point where I should be concerned enough to see a doctor, or maybe there's a different treatment I should try?
Allergy on the penis and surrounding areas with itching and redness can be due to a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice daily for 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing.
