I've been dealing with some white patches near my anus, and occasionally they get quite itchy. It's really frustrating, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you suggest any medicine or treatment that might help with this issue? I'm eager to find a solution soon.

The white color near your anus could be due to a fungal infection, such as candidiasis. Here's a possible solution:

Over-the-Counter (OTC) Medications

  1. Clotrimazole cream: An antifungal cream that can help clear up the infection.
  2. Miconazole cream: Another antifungal cream that can be effective.

Home Remedies

  1. Keep the area clean: Wash with mild soap and lukewarm water.
  2. Dry the area: Pat dry with a clean towel.
  3. Wear loose clothing: Avoid tight clothing that can irritate the area.

I've got this boil on my scrotum, and I'm not sure what to do about it. Could you recommend any medicine or treatment for this? I'm a bit worried and would appreciate some guidance.

I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent infection and promote healing. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like ibuprofen to help with any pain or discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the boil does not improve or gets worse, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
