I've been dealing with wet dreams, and my doctor mentioned that I should try masturbating occasionally. But here's the thing: every time I do, I end up feeling itchy all over my body. Could the itchiness be connected to the masturbation, or am I just overthinking it?

View allI'm a bit confused about how to use the acnewar gel that my doctor prescribed. Should I wash my face with water after applying the gel and then use the face wash my doctor recommended? Or do I just use the face wash directly after putting on the acnewar gel? I'm not really sure what the correct order is.
When using Acnewar gel and a prescribed face wash, follow this order: 1. *Apply Acnewar gel*: Directly apply a thin layer of Acnewar gel to the affected areas. 2. *Wait for 15-30 minutes*: Allow the gel to absorb and work on the acne. 3. *Wash your face with the prescribed face wash*: Use lukewarm water and a small amount of face wash to cleanse your face. 4. *Rinse thoroughly*: Rinse your face with lukewarm water to remove all residue. Do not mix Acnewar gel with the face wash. Apply the gel first, wait, and then wash your face with the prescribed face wash.

My son has a mole on his head that keeps getting bigger. Is there any treatment for this other than surgery? I'm a bit worried about it growing so fast.
While surgical removal is the primary treatment for a mole that is changing or causing concern, it's not always the only option. If the mole is benign (not cancerous) and you're concerned about its appearance, a dermatologist may suggest alternative treatments, such as watchful waiting or cosmetic removal.

I've tested positive for Herpes 1, with an igg level of 18 COI, which seems really high to me. I've already done a 7-day course of Acyclovir, but my results haven't changed at all. I'm starting to worry because I've heard there's no cure for Herpes type 1. Can you help me understand why my levels are so high even after treatment, and is there anything else I can do?
A positive herpes simplex virus (HSV) IgG result with a COI of 18 indicates a past exposure to the virus, as IgG antibodies typically appear after the initial infection. While there's no cure for herpes, antiviral medications like acyclovir can help manage symptoms and reduce the frequency of outbreaks. If your symptoms persist, consider consulting your healthcare provider for further guidance.
