I've had this thing for more than a year now, and today when I pressed it, some dust came out. It doesn't hurt or anything, but I'm confused. I've shown it to a doctor before, and they mentioned it might be due to sweat gland dysfunction. But why is dust coming out of it? What's going on here?

I'm dealing with some painful wounds in the genital area, and it seems like they always show up during the rainy season. Could you recommend any medications for pain relief, wound healing, and effective antibiotics that I should consider? I'm really looking for some guidance here.

I'm on holiday in Egypt and I've been feeling like there are bugs or ants crawling on my back, but when I check, there's nothing there. It's really weird and kind of freaking me out. On top of that, I'm also dealing with constipation in the lower abdomen. What could be causing these symptoms together?

I've got this pimple on my bum, and it's the third one already. The first two were really painful, and no tablets seemed to work on them, but they eventually went away. Now, this one's back, and the pain is awful. It's swelling more and more every day, and I can barely walk. Plus, my anus is hurting too. I've had bleeding twice, and it's painful when I'm sitting or using the bathroom. What should I do?
