I'm using Acnil soap for acne, but my face is drying out and starting to peel. I'm 25 and really worried about these side effects. Could you recommend another option for dealing with acne that won't dry out my skin?

Since Acnil soap is causing dryness and peeling of your skin, you can try using Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser. It is a mild and non-irritating cleanser that is suitable for sensitive skin. Use it twice a day, in the morning and evening, to cleanse your face. Make sure to follow up with a non-comedogenic moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated.

I've noticed some white spots around the circumference of the head of my penis. They don't itch, but I've been having itchy areas on my thighs, groin, and testicles. I saw a dermatologist, and they prescribed Keto B cream and Incid MD tablets. It's been two weeks, and the itchy areas have improved, but the white spots on the glans haven't changed. What could this be? Should I be worried?
The white area on the glans of the penis may be due to a fungal infection, such as candidiasis. To treat this, you can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole cream twice a day on the affected area for about 2-4 weeks. In addition, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole to help clear up the infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any potential irritants. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
