Question 1

I've recently noticed some changes around the head of my penis. Last month, I had a shiny rash that went away on its own, but the head stayed red. There are also these pink papules on the penis ring, and my foreskin has been really sticky with some white stuff inside. I wash with soap every day, but now the skin on the head has become erosive and starts peeling. Im also using coconut oil, but now even the tip is peeling. What's strange is that it doesn't itch or hurt, and theres no sore or lesion. What could be going on?

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms, it's possible that you experienced a self-limiting condition, such as:

1. Irritant contact dermatitis (reaction to soap)
2. Balanitis (inflammation of the penis head)
3. Posthitis (inflammation of the foreskin)

To promote healing and prevent future occurrences:

1. Discontinue using harsh soaps; switch to gentle, fragrance-free cleansers.
2. Apply coconut oil or a topical emollient to soothe the skin.
3. Avoid excessive washing or rubbing.
4. Consider consulting a dermatologist or urologist for proper evaluation and guidance.

In the meantime, maintain good genital hygiene:

1. Clean the area with lukewarm water and a mild cleanser.
2. Pat dry; avoid rubbing.
3. Apply coconut oil or a topical emollient to keep the skin moisturized.

Question 2

Can I take Perfectil vitamins if I mostly just get the occasional pimple but have really dark eyelids and circles under my eyes? My hair has been thinning as well, and I'm 25. I'm worried because it has 10 mg of biotin. Is that okay to take?

Accepted Answer

No use. The treatment of acne differs according to the grade of involvement. Some people have more oilyness on the face which results in breakouts. After completing treatment for controlling the active breakouts, tablets can be stopped and creams need to be continued to prevent recurrence. Diet and lifestyle modifications are also important. Please don't do any self treatment such as over the counter Steroid creams. Don't burst the pimples with your fingers as it can result in ugly scars. The marks and pores left behind after the pimples heal can also be treated.

Question 3

I've just started using Minokem F solution 5 and I'm a bit confused about how it works. Does it only help with hair growth on the crown area, or can it also be effective for the front of the scalp? My main issue is a receding hairline, not balding on the crown. Is this treatment going to help with that?
