I've noticed some purple dots on the head of my penis and the skin is also really dry. The foreskin doesn't seem smooth at all. What could be causing this, and is there anything I should do about it? I'm getting a bit worried.

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of irritation or an infection, possibly related to dry skin or a dermatological condition. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for an examination to rule out any underlying issues such as balanitis or other skin conditions. In the meantime, keeping the area clean and moisturized may help, but it's best to get a professional evaluation.

View allI've been dealing with a wax burn on my face, and my doctor prescribed Momatef cream for the ripped skin. I've heard about Silverex Ionic, and I'm wondering if it would work the same way as the cream I got. Can they both be used for something like this, or do they serve different purposes?
No they both are different,use Momet F cream for your concern

I've been using Tretinoin cream for about a month now to tackle my hyperpigmentation, but instead of seeing improvements, my face and neck are getting darker. I'm really concerned and wondering if this increased darkness is normal and will eventually go away on its own. Could you share some insights on what might be happening?
Yes,Continue same treatment.
