I've got this boil on my scrotum, kind of like it's filled with pus and a bit of blood at the bottom. It doesn't really hurt, but when my thighs rub against it, I get this slight burning sensation. Should I be worried or get it checked out?

View allI've always had dry lips, even though I try to stay hydrated. My skin keeps peeling off, and now my lips have turned dark. I'm really looking for a way to fix this permanently. What can I do?
It sounds like you may be experiencing chronic dryness and peeling of your lips. To help improve the condition of your lips, I recommend using a lip balm containing ingredients like beeswax, shea butter, and vitamin E. You can try using Burt's Bees Lip Balm regularly throughout the day to keep your lips moisturized. Additionally, you can apply a thin layer of Aquaphor Healing Ointment before bedtime to help repair and hydrate your lips overnight. Remember to drink plenty of water throughout the day to maintain hydration from within.

I got my nose pierced at the beginning of February. About two weeks later, I switched to a diamond stud and noticed there was still a bit of pain. Then a week after that, I noticed a bump forming where the piercing is, and it hasn't gone away since. I've tried all kinds of home remedies like saltwater soaks and applying various oils, which seem to reduce the bump sometimes, but it always comes back. Could you give me some advice on what might be causing this and what I can do about it?

I'm dealing with androgenic alopecia and was told to take finpecia 1mg along with minoxidil. I was advised to use finpecia for just 3 months, but I'm not sure about what happens to my hair growth if I stop after that time. I'm really confused because I've come across different opinions online. Do I need to be on this medication for life? And isn't there a risk of becoming impotent if I use it continuously?
