I've been bitten by an insect and the area is really itchy and red. There's no swelling, but the skin looks reddish and a bit blackish. I've been using T Bact ointment, but I'm wondering if there's anything else I should be applying. Any advice on what ointments might help?

View allI've just gotten over a bout of chickenpox and it seems like I'm all cured now after about 15 days. I'm wondering how long I should wait before it's safe to have sex with my wife. What do you think?
yes you can do because Chickenpox is contagious for one to two days before the appearance of the rash and until the blisters have dried and become scabs.

I've been noticing some white scaling on the forehead of my penis that keeps coming back, even though I wash it regularly with soap. It's also looking redder than usual, but there's not much itching. I'm having a hard time finding doctors who recognize these symptoms. Could you help me understand what's going on?
A Candida infection, also known as genital thrush, is a common yeast infection that can affect both males and females. In men, thrush affects the head of the penis and the foreskin.A healthcare provider may use a scalpel or tongue depressor to gently scrape some of the skin from the infected area. The sample is then examined under a microscope by a pathologist to identify the fungus.
