I've been dealing with a skin issue and tried using candid b lotion and absorb powder. I even took zimig tablets, but nothing seems to be helping. The problem just keeps getting worse and spreading more. I'm really worried about how to get this treated effectively. Any advice?

As Candid B lotion, absorb powder, and Zimig tablets haven't been effective, consult a dermatologist for further guidance, as the spreading fungal infection may require prescription

I've got these pimple-like bumps on my scrotum. They don't itch or bleed, but when I saw a dermatologist, he said it's angiokeratoma. He assured me they're harmless and not sexually transmitted. He suggested laser treatment if I wanted to get them removed. I'm curious, does laser actually work to get rid of them? Also, if I go ahead with the laser treatment, will it show up in any medical tests, like when I'm applying for government jobs? Please help me understand what to expect.

Its safe to get laser treatment dne and is not detectable in any tests unless you say the history of such event
