I'm a guy who sleeps with guys and I've been pretty active when it comes to oral and anal sex, sometimes without protection. I noticed I've got these round red rashes on my palms and feet that don't itch, and they've been around for like six months. I tried allergy meds, but they're not going away. Plus, I've started getting these molluscum contagiosum warts on my chest, elbow, and even my anal area. My serology test came back as weakly reactive for the RPRVDRL test. Could these be early signs of an STD? I'm thinking about trying Benzathine penicillin injections. Do you think it's safe, and are there any side effects I should worry about?

I've been using Neutrogena sunscreen for quite some time, but after running out and not using it for about a week, I noticed it started causing breakouts when I applied it again. I have acne-prone and combination skin, so I'm really concerned. What sunscreen would work best for me?

It is important to choose a sunscreen that is non-comedogenic and oil-free to prevent further breakouts. I recommend trying "La Roche-Posay Anthelios Clear Skin Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF 60". Apply a generous amount to your face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure, and reapply every 2 hours or immediately after swimming or sweating. This sunscreen is specifically designed for acne-prone skin and provides high protection against both UVA and UVB rays.
