I've got this persistent dry skin peeling just above my upper lip, and it's been quite annoying. I've tried using Cetaphil and some Vaseline petroleum jelly, but nothing's really working. Do you have any other suggestions or ideas on what might help? It's starting to worry me a bit.

I've got this tiny bump, about the size of a pea or smaller, on the bridge of my nose. It's been there for less than a week, and it's a bit red. It doesn't really hurt unless I press on it, but I can see a little bit of white pus under the surface. It doesn't seem like it's going to pop anytime soon. Any idea what this could be? Should I be worried about it? I can send a picture if that helps.

I'm really worried after a recent experience. I had sex with a prostitute, the condom broke, and I don't know her STD status. About a week later, I noticed genital warts. I've been using Monolox antibiotics, Flonida cream, and Supirocin ointment daily. Even though Flonida is meant to be used twice a week, I started using it daily after two weeks. Now, after three weeks, I see more swelling and redness around the opening of my penis. Could this be an STD, or maybe it's because of how the Flonida cream is affecting my skin? When I apply it, the foreskin touches the tip of my penis. I'm really anxiousis this a sign of herpes? What type of doctor should I consult?

It sounds like the swelling and redness you're experiencing could be related to the use of Flonida cream, especially if it is coming into contact with sensitive areas like the tip of your penis. However, since genital warts and other STDs can present with similar symptoms, I strongly recommend consulting a **dermatologist** or a **venereologist** (specialist in sexually transmitted diseases) for a proper diagnosis and to rule out any concerns like herpes or other infections. It's important to get a professional opinion for peace of mind.

I'm 25 and starting to notice my hair turning grey, and it's really stressing me out. I tried CB 100 and KeraBlak tablets for about 3 months, but unfortunately, I didn't see any improvement. I'm feeling a bit lost about what I should do next. Is there something else you would recommend? Are there other reasons this could be happening at my age?

Capsule evion and biotin capsulses are advised for 3 months orally.
