I've been smoking for the past five years, and about a year ago, I noticed a white spot on my lips but didn't think much of it. Now I see another spot on the other side. I've quit smoking recently, but I'm worried about these spots. How can I get rid of them?

I've been dealing with an infection for quite some time now and I've tried several creams like Dermikem OC and Clocip but nothing seems to be working. Could you please suggest the right treatment for this? I'm really worried and could use some guidance.

It seems like you have a fungal infection. I would recommend using a combination of Terbinafine cream (brand name Lamisil) and Clotrimazole cream (brand name Lotrimin). Apply Terbinafine cream twice a day and Clotrimazole cream once a day on the affected area for 2-4 weeks. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry to help the medication work effectively.

I'm a 36-year-old man with pearly penile papules on my glans, and I don't remember how long they've been there. What's the estimated cost for PPP removal, and what's the most affordable surgical option? How long does full recovery usually take, and where can I get this treated?

Pearly Penile Papules (PPPs) are generally harmless and don't require treatment, but can be removed for cosmetic reasons. The most affordable surgical options are typically cryotherapy (freezing) or excision with a scalpel, though laser treatments are also available. Costs vary, but can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars depending on the method and provider. Recovery usually takes a few weeks, and you can seek treatment from dermatologists or urologists
