I'm dealing with infections in my groin area, and the doctor suggested using t bac 2 ointment. Is it safe to use this on my penis as well? The skin there has turned dark, shrunk, and the foreskin is tight and not moving back easily. I'm a bit worried about this, could you advise?

It's important to follow your doctor's advice, as the T Bac 2% ointment is typically used for skin infections. Applying it on the penis should be done cautiously, especially if you're experiencing tightness and discoloration. If the skin is shrinking or becoming overly tight, I recommend consulting your doctor for a specific evaluation and tailored treatment plan.

I've just turned 31 and recently got married, and I'm facing an issue with my skin. I've always had oily skin, but now I'm breaking out with a lot of pimples on my face. I maintain a really healthy diet, and I eat lots of fruits and veggies. Could this breakout be due to hormonal changes, maybe because my period is approaching? I'm worried and would appreciate any advice on how to reduce these pimples and deal with the spots they're leaving behind. What can I do about this?

Pimples can often flare up due to hormonal changes, especially around your period. Stress from new changes or diet can also contribute. To manage them, try using a gentle cleanser, avoid touching your face too much, and consider a spot treatment with ingredients like salicylic acid.

I'm dealing with some lumps popping up in my pubic area. They aren't too bad and seem like they've got pus in them. They come and go, but one got pretty bad and burst. I kept it clean and bandaged for a couple of weeks, and it went away. Now I've got two more, and it seems like they show up when there's pressure from my belt. I'm trying to wear my belt as little as possible, but I'm unsure how to stop these from appearing. Any advice on preventing this would be appreciated!
