I'm dealing with this painful boil or skin inflammation right on my hip line. It's not filled with pus, but it's really hard and hurts a lot, making it tough for me to walk properly. I've tried putting tbact on it overnight and I'm taking roxid, but nothing seems to help. What should I do?

I've been dealing with chickenpox and noticed now that my entire body is itching, even in places where there are no rashes. It's been 12 days since I first noticed the symptoms. Is this normal or could it be something else?

It is normal to experience itching even in areas where there are no chickenpox rashes during the recovery phase. To help alleviate the itching, you can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can apply Calamine lotion to the affected areas for relief.

I've noticed these red dot bumps on the head of my penis and a few on my scrotum, and they're really itchy. I looked it up and it seems like it might be scabies. What would be the best medication or cream to use for this, and how long should I continue treatment?

For scabies, you can use a topical medication called Permethrin cream. Apply the cream all over your body from the neck down and leave it on for 8-14 hours before washing it off. You should repeat this process in 1 week. Additionally, you can take an oral medication called Ivermectin to help treat the scabies. It is important to wash all clothes, bedding, and towels in hot water to prevent re-infestation.
