I'm really curious, is aloe vera gel actually good for anal use? I've been dealing with rashes down there, and after applying aloe vera, the problem seems to have improved. Can I use it regularly on my anus? I sometimes get anal chafing and rashes from dryness and was wondering if aloe vera is okay to use for that. Or maybe theres a specific gel or ointment youd recommend for dealing with these kinds of rashes and chafing?

I've got this nose piercing I did last month, and now there's this annoying bump with some redness around it that's just not going away. I'm really worried because my wedding is in February, and I want it to heal before then. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?
-For the bump and redness, it's important to keep the piercing clean with saline solution and avoid touching it with dirty hands. If it persists or worsens, consider consulting your piercer or a dermatologist to ensure proper healing before your marriage
