I'm really worried because since last night the glans of my penis has become swollen, and now the foreskin can't cover it. It's like the swollen part is sticking out past the foreskin. The sensitivity is intense and it's painful whenever I touch it. How long should I expect this swelling to last?

View allI had a hair transplant done a while ago but now the areas of my scalp that were fine before are starting to thin out. What non-surgical options do I have to address this new hair loss? I'm worried it might keep spreading.
If areas of your scalp that were previously healthy are now thinning after a hair transplant, there are several non-surgical options to address this. These include hair growth medications like minoxidil or finasteride, laser therapy, nutritional supplements, and addressing any underlying scalp conditions. You could also consider a second hair transplant or Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy.

I'm really worried about this recurring fungal infection I've had for the last 10 years. It mostly flares up on my thighs, and it's really frustrating. Do you have any suggestions on how to manage or prevent it?
This type of fungal infection in the thighs can be treated with antifungal medications. I recommend using **Clotrimazole cream** twice daily on the affected areas for at least 2-4 weeks. Additionally, taking **Fluconazole** tablets once a week for 4-6 weeks can also help in treating the infection. It is important to maintain good hygiene and keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent recurrence.

I'm dealing with this issue where my palm is getting darker, and a dermatologist mentioned it's hyperpigmentation. I've already tried medications from two different specialists, but it hasnt helped at all. I used to stay up really late for about 6-7 years, around 12 years ago. Im also a vegan. Could any of these be related to whats going on with my skin? I'm really curious about what else I can do to sort this out.
Hyperpigmentation of palms occur because of various causes like deficiency of vitamin B12, Addison's disease , malabsorption syndrome etc. So you need some investigation to exclude these conditions. Meet a dermatologist. Start vitaminB12 supplements.
