I've noticed a dry patch and peeling on my left scrotum, kind of like a dandruff scalp. It got worse for a bit and then stopped. Now the skin feels a bit harder, looks lighter, and has these small boils. Any idea what could be causing this?

Consult a healthcare provider or a dermatologist to get an accurate diagnosis, especially since you've noticed a change in the skin texture and color. Avoid scratching or irritating the area further as it can worsen the condition. Proper hygiene: Keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection. If it is a fungal or bacterial infection, your doctor may recommend appropriate medications.

I've got multiple lipomas all over my body and I'm wondering if there's a way to remove them without major surgery or if there are any other treatment options that might work better for me
For lipomas, several treatment options beyond major surgery exist, including steroid injections, liposuction, and minimal excision. Steroid injections can help shrink lipomas, especially smaller ones, by breaking down fat cells. Liposuction can remove lipomas, particularly in areas where scarring is undesirable. Minimal excision is a surgical technique that can reduce scarring.
