I've just used Veet hair removal cream, the sensitive kind, on my testicles for over 8 minutes. Now I'm feeling a burning sensation down there, and it's looking a bit red. I'm wondering, could this be a minor chemical burn? Should I go ahead and use Neosporin on it?

I've been having some skin issues, and I'm starting to get worried. I went for a medical test in Saudi Arabia, and it came back showing TPHAVDRL reactive. After that, I consulted a dermatologist in Hyderabad, and they did a biopsy to confirm the results, which were still reactive. They recommended penicillin injections, which I took, and then did a retest 8 weeks later. But, the test is still showing reactive. I'm not sure if this diagnosis is accurate or if it's something that can actually be cured. Besides this, I've had some non-itchy, painless rashes on my skin since around 2009. They appeared when I traveled to the USA. I've shown them to a doctor there, but I'm still concerned. Could there be something I'm missing or should be doing differently?
This looks like Syphilis, penicillin is the drug of choice for this condition and it's curable no need to worry follow as your Dermatologist advised you some cases need long-term treatment.

Can I use Mediker or other shampoos to treat lice in my hair while I'm breastfeeding my 2-month-old son? I'm a little worried about how it might affect him. Could using such products be harmful to my baby?
It is not recommended to use Mediker or any other lice treatment shampoos while breastfeeding. These products contain chemicals that can be harmful to your baby. Instead, you can use a fine-toothed comb to remove the lice and their eggs manually. Additionally, you can consult with your healthcare provider for safe and effective treatment options that are compatible with breastfeeding.
