I'm really worried because I've noticed some redness and warts on the skin of my penis. I think it might be a staph infection, but I'm not entirely sure. Could you please guide me on what kind of doctor I should see for this?

For a staph infection and skin lesions on the penis, consult a dermatologist or a urologist, specifically one specializing in genitourinary medicine, who can assess the condition, provide a proper diagnosis, and recommend effective treatment options, such as antibiotics, antiviral medications, or topical creams, to address the infection and skin lesions

I'm dealing with really rough and frizzy hair right now and I'm thinking about getting a keratin treatment. But I've also got a lot of dandruff at the moment. Is it a bad idea to go ahead with the keratin treatment while I'm dealing with dandruff, or should I wait until it clears up? Also, does a keratin treatment lead to any hair loss? Would love some advice.
