I'm really concerned because it's been a month since the skin on my penis has gotten super dry. Now there are cuts, and it's really painful. There's also a lot of irritation around the area. I've tried using coconut oil for moisture, and it helps, but only for a little while. Can you suggest any medicine or something that might help?

View allI accidentally burned my leg with hot water and I've been using Silverex ointment, Burnosaf ointment, Lizolib, and taking Dalacin tablets. But there's still a lot of itching and pain. Do you have any advice on how to make this heal faster?
Burns can be painful and itchy, but with the right treatment, you can promote healing and reduce discomfort. Current Treatment You're already using: 1. Silverex ointment: Helps prevent infection and promotes healing. 2. Burnosaf ointment: Soothes and protects the skin. 3. Lizolib: An antibiotic ointment to prevent infection. 4. Dalacin tablet: An oral antibiotic to prevent infection. Additional Measures to Promote Healing and Reduce Discomfort 1. Keep the wound clean and dry: Gently clean the area with mild soap and lukewarm water. Pat dry with a clean towel. 2. Apply a topical anesthetic cream: Over-the-counter (OTC) creams like lidocaine or benzocaine can help numb the area, reducing pain and itching. 3. Use a cool compress: Apply a cool, wet compress to the affected area to reduce itching and discomfort. 4. Take an oral antihistamine: If the itching is severe, an OTC antihistamine like diphenhydramine (Benadryl) can help relieve itching and reduce the allergic response. 5. Keep the area moisturized: Once the wound is healed, apply a moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and promote skin elasticity.

I'm currently taking hormone tablets for my irregular periods, and I'm about to start Sotret 20 mg. Could Sotret cause any more delays in my period? I'm a bit concerned and would love your advice.

I'm dealing with these rashes in my armpits and groin area for the past 45 months or so. I've tried everything from fourderm to quadriderm creams to feel better. Just recently, I put on ring guard and an hour later, it started burning. My doctor mentioned using lulibet, but I'm not sure what to do next. Any idea what's going on or what might actually help?
You may be experiencing a fungal infection in your armpits and groin area. Lulibet cream contains the active ingredients luliconazole, which is used to treat fungal infections of the skin. You can apply a thin layer of lulibet cream on the affected areas once daily for up to 2 weeks. Make sure to wash and dry the affected areas before applying the cream. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
