I've been dealing with these persistent pimples that start small but get pretty big and filled with pus over about 12 days. The skin underneath gets hard and it really hurts. When I try to squeeze them, a bit of pus and blood comes out. After about a week, they leave behind a black spot but then new ones keep coming up right after the old ones disappear. I'm just trying to figure out what's going on with my skin. Any idea what this could be?

Based on your description, it sounds like you are experiencing recurrent episodes of acne. To help treat this, you can use a topical treatment containing Benzoyl Peroxide or Salicylic Acid to help reduce inflammation and prevent new breakouts. You can try using a brand like "Differin Gel" or "Neutrogena Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Spot Treatment" on the affected areas once daily. Additionally, maintaining a good skincare routine and avoiding picking or squeezing the pimples can also help prevent further breakouts.

View allI've been dealing with jock itching for the past two months, and it's just not going away. I've tried using some creams, and while the itch sometimes gets a bit better, it keeps coming back. Is there anything else I can do to get rid of it for good? It's really frustrating!

Can melalumin lightening cream be used on lips to decrease melanin, or do I need to get the specific melalumin lip lightener? The chemist said it would work, but I'm not sure.
I would advise against using Melalumin lightening cream on your lips, even if the chemist says it will work. Here's why: 1. Formulation differences: Melalumin lightening cream is formulated for skin use, whereas lip skin is more delicate and requires specialized care. Using a skin cream on lips may cause irritation, dryness, or other adverse reactions. 2. Lip safety: Lips lack the protective barrier of skin, making them more susceptible to irritation and damage. Using a skin lightening cream on lips may increase the risk of adverse effects. 3. Specific lip concerns: Lip lightening products, like Melalumin lip lightener, are specifically designed to address lip concerns, such as dryness, pigmentation, and fine lines. They may contain ingredients that are more suitable for lip care. To ensure safety and effectiveness, I recommend using a product specifically designed for lip care, such as Melalumin lip lightener.

I've been dealing with this issue where about a year ago, I noticed two small dark red blisters on the glans of my penis. They weren't painful and I barely noticed them at first, but now it's turned into something like a small wound that's slightly itchy and red. Ive tried a few things, but nothing seems to help. I'm really worried about why it hasn't healed yet, so could you help me figure out whats going on?
