I've been dealing with these pimples right under my butt crack, and they're really irritating and painful, especially when I move. I'm not sure what kind of medical facility I should go to for this. Any advice?

View allI've got this rash that's developed on my chest and shoulder. It started on Thursday as just a small itchy spot, but now it's a raised area that's hot and irritated to the touch. I've tried taking allergy pills, but they haven't made any difference. Could you let me know what this might be and what I should do about it?
This sounds like a case of contact dermatitis. I recommend using a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream applied to the affected area twice a day for 1 week. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching and inflammation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with an issue where I keep getting red rashes and occasionally white shiny patches on my penis. The skin sometimes gets moist, and I notice a thick white substance under the foreskin. Along with this, there's itching and a burning sensation. I've been using candid b cream, and it works for a while, but the problem comes back after about a month. I even tried taking some antibacterial tablets for a week, but nothing seems to make it go away for good. This has been going on for like 5 or 6 years now, and I'm really not sure what to do next. Any advice?
Recurring genital candidiasis (thrush) for 5-6 years indicates a chronic condition. Candid B cream provides temporary relief, but the infection persists. _Consider the Following_ 1. _Antifungal resistance_: The fungus might be resistant to Candid B cream. 2. _Underlying health conditions_: Diabetes, weakened immune system, or other health issues might contribute to the recurring infection. 3. _Poor hygiene or moisture_: Trapped moisture under the foreskin or other skin folds can exacerbate the infection. _Recommended Next Steps_ 1. _Consult a urologist or dermatologist_: Get a proper diagnosis and guidance on treatment. 2. _Culture test_: A culture test can help identify the underlying cause of the infection. 3. _Prescription medication_: Your doctor might prescribe stronger antifungal medication or a combination of medications. 4. _Improve hygiene and moisture management_: Keep the genital area clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal care items.

I've been having this weird swelling on my forehead, almost like I bumped it or got bitten by an insect. It doesn't happen too often, maybe 2 or 3 times over the last couple of months, but it's been going on for about six months now. Can anyone help me figure out what it might be?
