I'm really concerned about how long it usually takes for an ear piercing to heal completely. My daughter had hers done, and it doesn't seem to be healing like it should. We're still noticing a bit of blood when we take out the earring. Is there any gel or remedy that could help speed up the healing process after a piercing?

I've been dealing with a lot of itching on my testicles and the surrounding areas for the last few days. I've also noticed about 8 to 10 pimples have appeared on the skin of my testicles. The itching seems to get worse at night. I've tried using coconut oil, but it hasn't helped. What could this be, and should I be worried?

The itching and pimples on your testicle skin can be uncomfortable and concerning. Possible Causes 1. Folliculitis: An inflammation of the hair follicles, which can cause itching, redness, and pimples. 2. Jock itch (Tinea cruris): A fungal infection that can cause itching, redness, and a rash in the groin area. 3. Contact dermatitis: An allergic reaction or irritation caused by exposure to certain substances, such as soaps, detergents, or fabrics. 4. Scabies: A parasitic infection caused by mites that can lead to intense itching, especially at night.Precautions and Self-Care 1. Maintain good hygiene: Keep the genital area clean and dry to prevent bacterial and fungal growth. 2. Avoid scratching: Scratching can further irritate the skin, leading to more severe symptoms. 3. Wear loose, breathable clothing: Tight clothing can irritate the skin and exacerbate symptoms. 4. Avoid sharing personal items: Refrain from sharing towels, clothing, or personal items to prevent the spread of infections.

Which face wash is best for pimples?

Face wash with either salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide may help in removing dead skin cells which clogs the pores leading to acne. Either of them may help only in mild grade of acne. You can choose face wash with salicylic acid if you have blackheads, whiteheads and comedones and face wash with benzoyl peroxide if you have pus filled pimples.
