I'm kinda worried about something and hoping you could help me out. I've been experiencing a lot of knee pain and backaches lately, and I'm noticing that my joints seem to get numb. It's also kind of hard to get up after sitting down for a while. Do you think this could have something to do with excessive masturbation? I'm really curious if there's a connection here.

I'm dealing with chronic folliculitis and it's really frustrating. I've seen a dermatologist and tried ampicillin and cloxacillin tablets, which help while I'm on them. But as soon as I stop taking the medication, the infection just comes right back. Is there anything I can do to keep it from returning?

You did not mention what body part is getting affected repeatedly. Chronic folliculitis is a stubborn infection of hair follicle and takes longer time for cure. You may need longer course of an antibiotic after pus culture. Visit a dermatologist again for same.

I've had this lump filled with pus on one of my butt cheeks for about a month now, and it was really painful. I pressed on it to get the pus out, and while it's not inflamed or painful anymore, the skin's still hard. Do you know how I can get rid of the scar and get my skin back to normal? Also, I'm wondering why this happened in the first place and how I can prevent it from happening again.

I've been dealing with really dry skin on my face and some pretty intense dark circles. There's also this dark line across my nose and a patch near it that just won't go away. I'm already on a six-month treatment for pimples that my doctor assured would help with the dark spots too, but I'm not actually seeing any change. What should I do?
