I'm dealing with this spider pee rash that came back on my upper thigh. The first time I got it, my doctor friend told me to use Clobeng a few times a day, and luckily there wasn't any itching then, so I just went with that treatment. But now it's showing up again and causing irritation. I've started using Clobeng once more, but I'm concerned it might not go away entirely this time. How can I get rid of it for good?

I'm dealing with this really annoying jock itch and I've already tried using Fourderm by Cipla, but it doesn't seem to be making a difference. Should I try a different medication, or is it better to just visit a doctor now? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I've noticed some bumps on the shaft of my penis and I think I've got an ingrown hair too. I'm really not sure what's going on. What do you think I should do about this?

For bumps on the penis shaft and ingrown hairs, try gentle exfoliation with a warm washcloth, avoid tight clothing, and use a gentle shaving cream or trimmer to reduce hair ingrowth; apply topical creams like hydrocortisone or tea tree oil to soothe inflammation, and consider consulting a dermatologist or urologist to rule out underlying conditions like folliculitis, keratosis pilaris, or genital warts.
