I've been having some serious issues with irritation on my penis head, and it's been peeling since a few days ago. It's really uncomfortable, especially when I pee because it's painful. Just yesterday, the skin on the edge of the penis sheath started peeling as well, and I'm seeing this white sticky discharge. Plus, the left tip of my lips seems to be showing a similar kind of problem. I'm really worried about what's going on. Can you help figure out what's happening or suggest what I should do next?

You may be experiencing a fungal infection. I would recommend using an antifungal cream such as Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected areas twice a day for about 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg once a day for 7 days. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any irritants like scented soaps or lotions.

My lips have become really dark and I'm not sure why, especially since I rarely smoke. I've tried using various oil creams but nothing seems to help. Could you suggest the best treatment to help lighten them?
Darkening of the lips can be caused by various factors, including smoking and sun exposure. To help lighten your lips, you can try using a lip lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. One option is "Melalite Cream" which contains hydroquinone. Apply a thin layer on your lips once daily in the evening. Additionally, using a lip balm with SPF during the day can help protect your lips from further darkening due to sun exposure. Make sure to stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet rich in vitamins and antioxidants to support overall skin health, including your lips.

I'm using melamet cream and my skin has become fairer and whiter, which is great. But now I'm thinking about stopping the cream. Can you suggest another cream that can help me maintain this skin tone without causing any side effects?
You can consider using a cream containing Kojic acid, Vitamin C, and Arbutin for maintaining skin tone without side effects. One such cream is "Kozilite-H Cream." Apply a thin layer of this cream on the affected areas. Don't forget to use sunscreen.
