I'm just wondering how accurate the herpes HSV IgG test is after three months since I was exposed. I got a negative result, but I've noticed a blister under the foreskin. Should I consider getting retested in a few months?

View allI've been dealing with some pretty bad acne, and it got worse when I accidentally rubbed it too hard, turning into an infected pus. My doctor suggested I use T bact for it, but I'm really worried about the scars it might leave behind. What can I do to help with the scarring?

I've been dealing with some itching and redness on my penis and the surrounding areas lately. It's been bothering me so much that I decided to apply an antibacterial and antifungal cream for about 4-5 days now, but I'm not really seeing much improvement. I'm starting to get a bit worried about what could be causing this and whether there's something else I should be doing. Is there a point where I should be concerned enough to see a doctor, or maybe there's a different treatment I should try?
Allergy on the penis and surrounding areas with itching and redness can be due to a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice daily for 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to promote healing.

You can use Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, you can take Fluconazole tablets 150mg once a week for 2-4 weeks to treat the infection effectively. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further fungal growth.
