I'm experiencing some itchy spots developing on my scrotum that aren't really painful, but they're releasing this non-smelly, kinda sticky fluid. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm dealing with an infection in my private area since last July. I've tried different treatments, but there's always a small patch that never fully heals, and then another one appears. I've used plenty of medicines and creams, but the issue just won't go away. Any advice on what I should do next?
When scheduled for a thyroid function test (TFT), it's recommended to withhold Thyronorm (levothyroxine) for 24-48 hours before the blood test. Taking Thyronorm on the day of the test may affect the accuracy of the results, particularly the TSH levels. Stop Thyronorm 24-48 hours prior to the test. Consult your doctor or endocrinologist for personalized advice. Follow instructions to ensure accurate test results. Reschedule the test if you've taken Thyronorm on the same day
