I've got a skin tag on the shaft of my penis, and I'm not sure how to get rid of it. I tried cutting it off once, but it bled and just came back a few days later. I'm curious about what might be causing it and if there's a more effective way to remove it. Any advice?

I've been dealing with a pretty serious skin allergy lately, and it's been driving me crazy with all the itching. Got these small red pimples popping up on my hands and all over my body. It's like never-ending itching and rashes, and it sucks. I've already tried taking Avil 50, like about six tablets, one each day, hoping it might be some kind of allergy thing, but nothing's really changed. Could you suggest something that might actually help?

Sounds like you are experiencing a severe allergic reaction. I recommend you take a combination of Cetirizine (brand name Zyrtec) 10mg once daily and Hydrocortisone cream for topical application on the affected areas twice a day. Additionally, you can take Ranitidine (brand name Zantac) 150mg twice daily to help reduce the allergic response. Make sure to avoid any known triggers and keep the affected areas clean and moisturized.

I'm recovering from COVID, and I've noticed that my fingers wrinkle up quickly, like when I wash my hands or have soups. They go back to normal after a while, but it's kind of strange. Is this something related to my recovery? How can I deal with it? Would love to hear your thoughts.
