I've had this mole on my foreskin for the past couple of years, and just recently, it's been freaking me out because it seems to be growing. I saw a dermatologist who said it's nothing serious, but I can't stop worrying. I keep thinking that it's itchy or that there's some pain around my penis, and it's freaking me out more because I can't tell if I'm just imagining these symptoms. What should I do? Should I be concerned, or am I overthinking it?

I understand your concern and anxiety about the mole on your foreskin. It's natural to feel apprehensive when it comes to changes in our bodies, especially in sensitive areas.
Firstly, Reassurance from a Dermatologist
The fact that you consulted a dermatologist and they reassured you that the mole is benign is a positive sign. Dermatologists are trained to diagnose and treat skin conditions, including moles.
Anxiety and Hypervigilance

View allI'm dealing with infections in my groin area, and the doctor suggested using t bac 2 ointment. Is it safe to use this on my penis as well? The skin there has turned dark, shrunk, and the foreskin is tight and not moving back easily. I'm a bit worried about this, could you advise?
It's important to follow your doctor's advice, as the T Bac 2% ointment is typically used for skin infections. Applying it on the penis should be done cautiously, especially if you're experiencing tightness and discoloration. If the skin is shrinking or becoming overly tight, I recommend consulting your doctor for a specific evaluation and tailored treatment plan.
