I've got these small itchy bumps in my pubic area that keep spreading and look really bad. They don't cause major issues besides the itching, but I'm worried about how they're multiplying. Could you recommend any creams or meds to make them fade or go away? I'd prefer not to do surgery right now.

While you can try some over-the-counter treatments, it's best to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, especially if the bumps are spreading or cause significant discomfort.

I recently had protected sex and gave unprotected oral sex to my friend. Afterwards, I developed angular cheilitis, but thankfully it cleared up within five days with treatment. I'm concerned though, could licking the vagina be the reason I got angular cheilitis?

.based on history that you are telling, most probably it was herpes labialis that you suffered from not angular cheilitis..
