I'm dealing with a burn from hot water and I'm not sure who I should see for this - a physician or a dermatologist. I've attached a picture of the burn for reference. Also, I'm currently using Silverex Ionic ointment. Any advice on what to do next?

View allI've been dealing with this really uncomfortable situation after a bout of scabies a few months ago, mostly around the genital area. Even though the scabies is gone, I developed 20 bumps on my testicles that are super itchy. Now, I can't seem to stop scratching them because it brings on this intense orgasmic feeling, leading me to masturbate more. It's become quite a habit, and I'm worried because the itching is getting worse. In fact, I scratched so hard that I started to bleed a bit, but even after healing, I can't resist scratching again. What should I do to stop this cycle and get rid of the intense itching?

I've been dealing with these itchy and painful bumps on my butt cheeks for over a decade now, and it's pretty frustrating. They come and go, but they're mostly always there. I used to be able to squeeze out the pus, and it would help, but recently, it's like everything's hardened and I can't get any pus out anymore. Sometimes I notice the bumps showing up on my inner thighs and the sides of my waist, too. Do you have any advice or insight on what's going on and how I might manage this?
Based on your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing recurrent episodes of boils or abscesses. These are usually caused by bacterial infections of the hair follicles. To help treat and prevent these bumps, I recommend practicing good hygiene by keeping the affected areas clean and dry. You can also apply warm compresses to the bumps to help them come to a head and drain. Additionally, you may benefit from using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent infection.

I'm experiencing these small cracks on the skin of my penis every few months, which makes it painful and difficult to get an erection or have sex. I've tried using Nizral and Nadoxin creams but haven't seen any improvement. Can you help me understand why this is happening and how I can prevent it?
