I'm feeling really uncomfortable with this redness and burning sensation around my anus. It's also kind of soft to touch. I'm not sure what's causing this, and it's making me really anxious. Could this be something serious? What can I do to alleviate it?

To help alleviate the redness, burning sensation, and softening of the skin around the anus, you can try using over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation and itching. Additionally, sitz baths with warm water several times a day can also provide relief. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid using harsh soaps or wipes. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm 11 and I've had chicken pox, and since then I've noticed some moles on my face that just won't go away. Also, I've been dealing with acne, mostly on my forehead and chin. Could you give me some advice on how to get rid of these moles and what to do about the acne issue?
There is no relation between chicken pox and moles. Acne is a common problem in your age group. Do not pop out your acne as they will leave scars. Avoid using hair oil as this can aggravate your acne on forehead.
