I'm dealing with this skin thing that's kinda like a fungal infection, where I get these red rings. Sometimes it clears up on its own but then comes back. I'm trying to figure out which cream is better for it, Panderm Plus or Zoderm E? Any advice would be awesome!

Based on your description of a recurring fungal infection with red ring-like lesions, both Panderm Plus (clotrimazole + beclomethasone) and Zoderm-E (clotrimazole) can be effective; however, Panderm Plus might be a better option as it combines an antifungal (clotrimazole) with a mild steroid (beclomethasone) to reduce inflammation and itching

I've been masturbating daily since I was 15, and I've noticed something odd that's got me a bit worried. When I masturbate, my penis tends to soften within about 10 seconds without me even touching it. The thing is, I can easily achieve a full erection, and I also get morning erections every two or three days. I haven't had intercourse in 12 years, so I'm not really sure how things would go when I'm with a partner. Could this be something I should be concerned about?

This could be a sign of erectile dysfunction. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting any medication to ensure it is safe for you.

I've noticed that my armpits have turned dark and patchy, and there's a bit of swelling too. It gets itchy, especially when I sweat. I don't put deodorant directly on my skin. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

Melacure cream for local application for atleast 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient, as it is economical.

Ive noticed this dark to brown patch right next to the meatus for around three months, and I can't help but worry. I have this maniac disorder that makes me check my penis a lot, like 8 to 10 times a day, because I'm paranoid about any unusual reactions. Doing this before once caused me to get balanitis. Now, Im freaking out that this brown patch might be related to those habits. Initially, I thought it might be a vein left behind, but now it doesn't seem like that. An online doctor mentioned it could be melanosis. Could this possibly be skin cancer, like melanoma, or am I overthinking this? Can checking and friction really turn that areas skin color to brown or tan?
