I'm noticing some small pimples on my penis and I'm a bit worried about what they could be. I'm wondering if they might be Fordyce spots, but I'm not entirely sure. Should I consult a doctor about this, and if so, which type of doctor should I see?

Fordyce spots are a common condition that can appear as small, pale, red, or white bumps on the skin. If you suspect you have Fordyce spots, you can consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and confirmation. In some cases, no treatment is necessary, but if you are experiencing any discomfort or want them removed for cosmetic reasons, your dermatologist may recommend topical treatments or procedures like laser therapy.

I'm dealing with a skin disease that just came up suddenly, and it's all over my body. It's really red and almost looks like little mountains popping up. The itching is so intense that I'm up all night because I have to keep rubbing it, and it's burning like crazy. I've seen a lot of doctors over the past 18 months, but no one seems to have a solution. What's going on with my skin, and why isn't anything helping?

I've been told to use Antoxid HC for my dark circles, and I'm wondering if there are any side effects I should know about. Also, do you think products like Faceguard and Radiant I creams are effective for treating dark circles too? I want to double-check on my prescribed meds and what's best to use.

My wife has this scar on her faceit's right above her left eyebrow. Sometimes she experiences this sharp pain like a needle prick, and there's even a small wound under the eyebrow. We were told by a doctor to use Tbact Ointment cream to help with the scar, but we're curious if there's any other treatment out there that could reduce the scar besides opting for plastic surgery.
