Ive been having these boil-like pimples in my suprapubic area again. I had the same issue about a year ago and it hung around for two years before disappearing on its own. Now, after about 9 months of being clear, theyve come back in the same spot. Im seeing about 10 of them now, and a couple have started growing on my penis too. Last year, I had a skin biopsy and the doctor said it wasnt cancerous, but Im worried since theyre popping up again. Im sexually active and I do drink whisky or beer pretty often. Can you tell me what this might be, what causes it, and if theres a permanent treatment for it?

I've been dealing with this annoying itch on my right butt cheek. It's kind of embarrassing to see a doctor in person about it. Could you suggest an ointment or gel that might help me get rid of it?

I recommend using hydrocortisone cream 1% for the itching on your right butt cheek. Apply a thin layer of the cream to the affected area twice a day for up to 7 days. Make sure to wash your hands before and after applying the cream.

I'm a 30-year-old guy and my hair's been thinning out with some mild bald spots showing up. My dermatologist recommended I take Finax 1 Tablet once every day, but I've heard it could have sexual side effects. Could you tell me if these side effects are common or if they might cause problems with family planning in the future? I'm a bit concerned about how it could impact me sexually as time goes on. Would love to hear your thoughts.

I'm struggling with acne and dark spots on my face. Over the years, I've tried many medicines, but they only seem to help as long as I'm taking them. Once I finish the course, after a month or so, the same issues pop back up. Back in 2012, my doctor prescribed some medicines, and then again in 2013, I was recommended Zeethrom 500 mg, Saslic face wash, Resoten 20 mg, and Calene gel. By 2014, the prescription included Resoten 20 mg and Nioclean gel. I've been using these treatments for about three years, but I stopped taking any medicine over the past two years. Could you suggest what I should do next? Should I consider continuing with medicine or try another treatment option?
