I've been having a really hard time sleeping at night because of this super itchy problem. It's getting worse when I scratch, and now it seems to be spreading. Could you recommend a good medicine that might help cure it? I'm really concerned and looking for some guidance.

I can recommend you to take Benadryl (diphenhydramine) 25mg before bedtime to help with your itchy problem and improve your sleep. Additionally, you can apply hydrocortisone cream on the itchy areas to reduce the itching and prevent further spreading.

I'm dealing with red spots on my penis again after having them a year ago and getting treated. Now, every time I masturbate, they come back. Plus, if I keep the area dry, it just gets super dry and shiny. I usually masturbate about three times a week. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've noticed a pretty big red pimple under my left breast. It's turned dark now, and I've got a few smaller red pimples nearby. I'm really scared this might be something serious like breast cancer. I started exercising almost every day, but I'm not wearing a sports bra, just a regular tight one. Could the sweat and friction from that be causing these to show up under just one breast?

Don't worry, I'm here to help you figure out what might be going on. The symptoms you're describing - a red pimple under your left breast that's turned dark, with other small red pimples nearby - are unlikely to be breast cancer. Breast cancer typically presents as a lump or thickening in the breast tissue, not as pimples or skin lesions [1). That being said, it's always a good idea to get any new or changing skin symptoms checked out by a doctor. They can take a closer look and provide a proper diagnosis. As for the possible causes, sweat and friction from exercising and wearing a tight bra could definitely contribute to skin irritation and pimples in that area. This is especially likely if you're not wearing a sports bra that fits well and allows for good airflow

I'm really struggling with a fungal infection and it's just getting worse. I've tried using ebernet and nadibact plus, among other things, but nothing seems to work. It keeps spreading. Could you advise which specific medicine might actually help me? I'm genuinely worried about this.
