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.

View allI'm dealing with these keloid scars on my chest and shoulders, and they're really itchy and quite large. I'm looking for a treatment that doesn't involve surgery or steroid injections because my uncle had some unexpected results with those. It seems to run in the family since my grandfather, father, and uncle all have them too. Any advice on other treatment options that might work for me?
Keloid scars can be challenging to treat, especially if surgery or steroid injections have not been effective in the past. One option to consider is using silicone gel sheets, which have been shown to help flatten and soften keloid scars. You can try using Mepiform silicone gel sheets, applying them to the affected areas for at least 12 hours a day for several months to see improvement. Additionally, using pressure therapy with products like Jobskin pressure garments can also help reduce the size and thickness of keloid scars. It's important to be consistent with these treatments and be patient, as results may take time to show.

I've noticed some small blisters on the head of my penis. They're really tiny and they showed up about a week after I had a viral fever. They don't itch or hurt, but I'm kind of worried about what they could be. Could this be something serious or is it just a part of recovering from the fever? Would really like some advice on this.

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.
