I'm really worried about my husband's skin issues. He's been experiencing a lot of dryness and cracking in his groin area and under the scrotum. We've tried using Vaseline and coconut oil, but nothing seems to be helping. Could you please advise us on what to do next?

I'm really worried about the moles on my face and body. I tried homeopathic treatment, but I couldn't keep up with it, and now my moles have increased and I'm getting warts too. I'm scared that if I don't find a solution soon, my face will be covered in moles. Initially, I had 1213 moles but now it's up to 2324. I don't want any scars from treatment and want my face to look smooth. How much would it cost if I chose laser treatment for my whole face? Also, would homeopathy be a good option for me? How long would it take to completely get rid of these moles from my face?

I'm dealing with red spots on my penis again after having them a year ago and getting treated. Now, every time I masturbate, they come back. Plus, if I keep the area dry, it just gets super dry and shiny. I usually masturbate about three times a week. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
