I've had my piercing for about 5 months now, and a week after getting it, this bump showed up that hasn't gone away. It kind of looks like a pimple. Ive been trying to get rid of it by using a neem stick, but each time I put in a new stick, the bump seems to get aggravated again. Whats going on with that? Why isn't it healing? What should I do to help it improve?

I'm curious to know if doing yoga poses like handstands or headstands could actually help in regrowing hair. If they do, which one would be more effective for promoting hair growth: the headstand or the handstand? I'm really looking for something that might make a difference.

I'm experiencing some itching inside my penis, right from where it begins. It's really uncomfortable and makes me want to masturbate just to get some relief, but the itch doesn't go away. There's no burning when I pee, just this persistent itch. What could be causing this, and how can I make it stop?

This itching sensation inside the penis could be due to a fungal infection. You can try using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for about 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole 150mg as a single dose. Make sure to maintain good hygiene and avoid any irritants that may worsen the itching. If the symptoms persist, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I've been dealing with a ringworm infection for a few days now, and I've been using Quadriderm RF cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping. The infection is spreading, mainly below the waistline, and I'm really worried. Do you have any advice or alternative treatments? What else can I try to get rid of this?

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
