I'm wondering if there's a tablet that can help with skin whitening. Are there any side effects I should worry about while using it or even after? Could you give me some advice on this?

Certain tablets like Glutathione, Vitamin C, and Meladerm claim to promote skin whitening, but their effectiveness and safety vary, and potential side effects may include digestive issues, allergic reactions, and skin sensitivity, so consult a dermatologist before using any skin whitening tablets, as they can recommend safer and more effective alternatives, such as topical creams or professional treatments.

I'm trying to find a qualified surgeon to remove a mole located close to my right eye. It's been bothering me for a while, and I'm a bit worried about the procedure, especially since it's so near to my eye. Can you recommend someone who specializes in this kind of surgery, or should I be asking for a specific type of specialist? Any advice on what I should consider before going through with this would be really helpful.

For mole removal near the eye, consider consulting a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon specializing in eyelid surgery, who has expertise in removing moles from sensitive areas with minimal scarring. They will assess the mole and recommend the best removal method, which may include surgical excision, shaving, or laser treatment. Be sure to discuss your concerns, the procedure, and post-operative care with your chosen surgeon.

I'm dealing with some sores on my penis and scrotum that started about a week ago, and there's a lot of itchiness too. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

You may be experiencing symptoms of a fungal infection. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin) twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication such as Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help with healing.
