I've been dealing with this condition for the past two to three weeks now and thought it might just go away on its own. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what this could be. Can you help me figure out what it is and how to treat it?

View allI've been having this issue for the past six months where I notice some white patches on the glans of my penis, which come off easily after washing. Theres also a small red spot inside the foreskin with some light itching. I got a VDRL test done and it came back negative. I've been using zoster ointment, but I'm a bit worried. Whenever I have physical relations, sometimes the glans gets a bit red, and the foreskin seems to shrink and tighten. Should I be concerned about this, and is there anything else I should be doing or looking into?
Probable diagnosis is fungal infection. Candid cream for local application is advised for 2 weeks, along with tab levocetrizine 10 mg orally,daily for 5 days is advised to the patient.

I'm dealing with moderate acne and hyperpigmentation, and my skin type is combination and acne-prone. I'm wondering if an azelaic acid suspension would be more effective for me as a gel or cream. I've tried tretinoin before, but it always causes breakouts. Right now, I'm using a 10% niacinamide serum from Minimalist, followed by aloe vera gel and tea tree oil as a moisturizer. Can you recommend something that might work better for me, other than tretinoin and isotretinoin?

I'm dealing with some redness on the glans of my penis and have been applying Fucibet. Is this the right treatment for my situation? If not, can you suggest something else or offer any advice?
Redness on the glans of the penis can be a sign of inflammation or infection. It is important to keep the area clean and dry. You can apply an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% twice a day for 1-2 weeks. If the redness persists or is accompanied by other symptoms such as pain, discharge, or fever, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
