I'm masturbating daily and I'm a bit worried about whether this frequency might affect my sperm count. Plus, I've noticed I've got quite a few pimples on my face. I'm wondering if there might be a connection between masturbation and acne. Could you give me some advice on this?

Masturbating once a day is considered a normal and healthy frequency; research suggests that frequent ejaculation, including masturbation, may not significantly impact sperm count or fertility in healthy males; however, excessive masturbation (multiple times a day) may lead to temporary decreased sperm count, but this effect is reversible; regarding pimples, there is no direct scientific link between masturbation and acne

I'm dealing with some sores on my penis and scrotum that started about a week ago, and there's a lot of itchiness too. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication such as Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help with healing.

I'm noticing some white patches on my fingers and I've had them for a couple of months now. They don't seem to be spreading, which is a bit of a relief, but its still worrying me. After visiting a doctor, he told me it's vitiligo, but I'm not completely convinced. He prescribed some medications like Viterma capsules, Dermadew cream, Tacmod forte, Melanocyl ointment, Placentrex gel, and HHSONE cream. I've attached a few pictures for reference. Does this sound like vitiligo to you, and do you think these meds can actually help with it?

Viterma and dermadew cream is advised for 2-4 weeks for local application ,once daily.If any side-effects like itching,burning,or allergic reactions kindly consult dermatologist.
