I've been dealing with some intense skin itching at night ever since I recovered from dengue fever a week ago. It's mostly on my hands and legs and feels more like bump skin rather than a red rash. Could this itching be related to my recent dengue, or should I be worried about another skin issue? I'm really concerned and could use some guidance.

The itching you're experiencing, particularly at night, with bump-like skin on hands and legs, could be a post-dengue complication, but it's essential to consult a dermatologist to rule out other skin conditions, such as urticaria, pruritus, or allergic reactions, and seek guidance on appropriate treatment.

I've noticed these small white bumps appearing on the bottom part of my penis shaft for a while now, and recently there seem to be more. They're now covering most of the base and the underside of my shaft. Can anyone tell me what these might be and suggest any possible treatments? I'm really curious and a bit worried about it.
You may be experiencing Fordyce spots, which are small, harmless spots that can appear on the penis. These spots are usually sebaceous glands and are considered a normal variation. There is no need for treatment as they are benign. However, if you are concerned or experiencing any discomfort, you can consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and reassurance.

I'm struggling with a persistent fungal infection on my skin. I'm using NuforceGM cream but the itching just won't go away. It looks like a ring with red spots. I've been dealing with this for quite a while. What do you think would help?
It seems like the fungal infection is not responding well to the current treatment. I recommend trying a combination antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra cream. Apply it twice a day on the affected area for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks to treat the infection from within. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing to help with the healing process. Listen
