I've noticed this small hole in my skin, kind of looks like a needle prick. It's not red, but it feels tender to touch, and there's a bump under the skin. When I first saw it, the area was warm. There's no pus, but the bump feels pretty hard. It's not really painful, but it does hurt if I press on it. I'm a bit worried. Do you think this is something I should check out?

View allI'm a 25-year-old woman dealing with sunburns, and I was prescribed kojivit cream, but it's causing some skin irritation. Could you recommend any other options for treating sunburns?
For sunburns, you can try using aloe vera gel which has soothing properties and can help with skin irritation. You can apply a thin layer of aloe vera gel on the affected area multiple times a day to help with sunburn relief.

I've had this mole on my foreskin for the past couple of years, and just recently, it's been freaking me out because it seems to be growing. I saw a dermatologist who said it's nothing serious, but I can't stop worrying. I keep thinking that it's itchy or that there's some pain around my penis, and it's freaking me out more because I can't tell if I'm just imagining these symptoms. What should I do? Should I be concerned, or am I overthinking it?
I understand your concern and anxiety about the mole on your foreskin. It's natural to feel apprehensive when it comes to changes in our bodies, especially in sensitive areas. Firstly, Reassurance from a Dermatologist The fact that you consulted a dermatologist and they reassured you that the mole is benign is a positive sign. Dermatologists are trained to diagnose and treat skin conditions, including moles. Anxiety and Hypervigilance It's common for people to experience anxiety and hypervigilance when they're concerned about a particular health issue. This can lead to: Heightened sensitivity,anxiety

I've noticed something growing on my right bass, and it's really painful whenever I touch it. What could this be, and should I be worried?
Loose skin on the labia majora can be a concern. _Natural methods to tighten loose skin:_ 1. *Kegel exercises*: Strengthen your pelvic floor muscles with Kegel exercises, which can help tighten the skin. 2. *Squats and lunges*: Regular squats and lunges can help tone the muscles around the labia majora. 3. *Yoga and Pilates*: Certain yoga and Pilates exercises, such as pelvic tilts and bridges, can help strengthen the pelvic floor muscles. 4. *Vaginal tightening creams*: Some natural creams, such as those containing aloe vera, vitamin E, or tea tree oil, may help tighten the skin. 5. *Estrogen-boosting foods*: Include estrogen-boosting foods like soybeans, flaxseeds, and sesame seeds in your diet. _Why looseness occurs at 24:_ 1. *Hormonal changes*: Fluctuations in estrogen levels can cause skin laxity. 2. *Childbirth*: Although you're 24, if you've had a child, childbirth can cause stretching of the skin. 3. *Genetics*: Genetic factors can influence skin elasticity. 4. *Aging*: Skin naturally loses elasticity with age. 5. *Lack of exercise*: Sedentary lifestyle can contribute to weak pelvic floor muscles.
