I'm really worried about my skin. I've been using face bleach for the past year, and whenever I stop, it seems like my skin gets even darker. Is there any medication or treatment you'd recommend to lighten my skin safely? Also, I've noticed my skin is getting pretty loose lately. What can I do to tighten it back up?

long-term usage of bleach would make your skin sensitive and thin ,this might be the cause of your condition,don't resume bleach anymore and moisturize your face often,it heals with time don't worry.

I've been using kz lotion for dandruff, and lately, I've noticed my hair is falling out more than usual. Could this be a side effect? I don't have thyroid issues, I take vitamin supplements, and I usually get about 8 hours of sleep each night. I'm 26 and just really worried about this hair fall. Is it normal to experience this after using the lotion?

A couple of days ago I had unprotected oral sex with a prostitute and also had regular condom-protected sex, fingering, and kissing on her breasts and mouth. Since then, the tip of my penis has been itchy. It was more noticeable on the first day and got a bit better on the second day. Today, it's not so much itchy but I just have this kind of sensation. Afterward, about 15 minutes later, I used Betadine surgical scrub multiple times that day and once yesterday on that area and even some inside the tip, along with soap and water. Should I be worried and see a healthcare professional? Am I at risk for anything?

Given your situation, it's recommended that you visit a healthcare provider or a sexually transmitted infection (STI) clinic as soon as possible. They will assess your symptoms, provide guidance on potential STIs, and recommend testing and treatment options. Some possible concerns include: 1. STIs: Such as gonorrhea, chlamydia, or herpes. 2. Skin irritation: Allergic reactions or irritation from the Betadine scrub or soap. 3. Other infections: Like yeast infections or bacterial vaginosis. Don't hesitate to reach out to a healthcare provider. They will help you address any potential issues and provide peace of mind.
