I've noticed some pimples or bumps on my penis for the past month. They're not painful, but I'm really worried about what might be causing them. Is this something serious, or should I be doing something to treat it?

Without a physical examination, it is difficult to provide a definitive diagnosis. However, if these bumps are due to a non-infectious cause such as Fordyce spots or pearly penile papules, no treatment may be necessary. If they are due to a skin condition or infection, topical antibiotics like Bacitracin or Neosporin may be recommended. It is important to keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation.

I've been dealing with itching and rashes in my private area for about a month now, and it's getting really bothersome. Because of the lockdown, I haven't been able to see a doctor. Is there anything I can do to help with this at home, or should I be worried about something more serious?
Itchiness and rashes in the private area for a month can be due to a fungal infection. You can try using an over-the-counter antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream. Apply it twice a day for 2 weeks. Keep the area clean and dry. If there is no improvement or if it worsens, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and management.
