I'm experiencing some dryness on the tip of my penis and I can't figure out why it's happening. Do you have any advice or specific treatments I should consider to help solve this problem?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
This can happen due to various reasons such as lack of moisture, friction, skin conditions, or infections. To treat this problem, you can use a moisturizing cream like Eucerin Aquaphor Healing Ointment. Apply a thin layer of the ointment on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can also use an antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra Antifungal Cream if there is any suspicion of a fungal infection. Apply the antifungal cream as directed on the packaging. Remember to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing.

View allI'm a bit worried because I've been using peroclin 5 for a year now, and the results have been good, but lately, I've noticed that the cream is really watery and doesn't dry up like it used to. I'm not sure if this is because they're making it differently or if it's just the hot weather. If it doesn't dry, I'm concerned it might not be as effective for my acne. Do you know of any alternatives to peroclin that could help me out?
Peroclin 5% is a benzoyl peroxide-based cream. The watery consistency might be due to the manufacturer's formulation change or storage conditions. Alternatives to Peroclin 5%: 1. *Benzoyl peroxide gels* (2.5% or 5%): Neutrogena, Clearasil, or generic versions. 2. *Adapalene gel* (0.1%): Differin, Adaferin, or generic versions. 3. *Salicylic acid products* (0.5% or 2%): Clean & Clear, Stridex, or generic versions.

I've been using ELOSONE HT Cream for over three months and saw a real improvement in my skin color. But then I began to get pimples, and they left black marks that started spreading, so I stopped using the cream. Now, my face seems to be darkening really quickly. I'm worried and wondering if I should start using the cream again or try something else. What do you think?
-It's best to avoid using ELOSONE HT Cream without a doctor's guidance, as it can cause side effects like skin darkening and pimples. I recommend consulting a dermatologist to assess your skin and recommend the best treatment for your concerns.

I've been really struggling with severe discoloration and dryness on my skin for the past five years. I'm curious about skin whitening treatments or skin polishing. Can you explain the procedures and what kind of results I might expect? Also, how much does it typically cost?
