I'm really worried about my hand. The back of my palm has turned black, and it's super dry. I've been using olive oil for the past four days, hoping it'll help, but I'm not sure if it's working. I've also been using hand sanitizer and Dettol hand wash a lot. Could that be affecting my skin? Is this why my hand looks like this? I've got some photos of it too.

I've been experiencing this sharp pain right at the tip of my penis for about three days now, and it's really concerning me. Does this sound like something serious, or could it be something that will go away on its own? I'm a bit worried and would love some advice on what might be causing this pain.

-It sounds like you may have a localized issue, possibly an irritation or infection. I'd recommend seeing a doctor for a proper exam to rule out any serious conditions and to get appropriate treatment. In the meantime, avoid any harsh soaps or irritants.
