I've noticed this red pore on my nose that's been around for almost a year now. I'm kind of worried about what it could be and how to get rid of it. I regularly squeeze blackheads on my nose, so I wonder if maybe it's an infected pore? What do you think?

So I've been dealing with this fungal infection on my mouth, forehead, belly, and thighs, and it's just so frustrating. Ive tried all sorts of creams like terbinafine, pendrum, and lulifine, but it just keeps coming back. I'm really worried about this and not sure what to do next. Any advice on how I can get rid of it for good?

Fungal infections can be stubborn and may require a different approach for effective treatment. I recommend trying a combination of oral antifungal medication along with topical creams for better results. You can take tablet Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4-6 weeks along with applying clotrimazole cream on the affected areas twice daily. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I've been having this issue with my right nipple where it keeps getting dry and itchy off and on for a few weeks now. There's also this dry patch on the areola area, like dry skin. I try using moisturizer, and it helps a bit, but it goes back to being dry and itchy pretty quickly, especially after showering. There's no pain or bleeding, or anything else weird going on. Should I be worried about this? Does it sound serious?

I'm experiencing a lot of itching and redness along with some slight pain on the inner skin of my penis, the part that becomes visible after I pull back the foreskin. Can you advise on what I should do about it? I'm wondering if using skin ointments like RingGuard or Betnovate is safe for such a sensitive area.

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.
