I've noticed some tiny red dots, kind of like pimples, on the head of my penis. They itch a little bit. I'm 23 and have never been sexually active, so I'm pretty worried about what this could be. Any idea what's going on?

View allI'm really struggling with hair fall, and my hair has gotten so thin because of it. Are there any shampoos or oils you could recommend that might help? I've noticed that the hair on my forehead is getting sparser on both sides. I've even tried treatments from doctors, but they only seem to work while I'm taking the tablets. For hair regrowth, they suggested Himalaya Hairzone Hairfall solution, but I haven't seen any results. What can I do to stop the hair fall and help my hair grow back thicker?

I got bitten by a rat on my finger last night. It feels like a needle pinch at that spot. The doctor gave me abhayrab and a tt shot. Do I need something else?
Rabies Immunoglobulin (IMG) is typically administered in addition to the rabies vaccine if the exposure is considered high risk (e.g., deep bite wounds, exposure to wild animals, or if the animal cannot be observed or tested for rabies). If the bite was relatively minor (such as a small puncture wound), and the rat was not acting abnormally, you might not need IMG. If the doctor did not recommend IMG, they may have assessed the risk as low based on the circumstances of the bite.Monitor for symptoms: After a rat bite, be vigilant for any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, pain, or discharge from the wound. If you notice any unusual symptoms, seek medical attention. Observe the animal: If you can, try to observe the rat or determine whether it was showing any signs of illness (though this is often difficult). If the rat was acting unusually (e.g., aggressive or showing signs of rabies), this could increase the risk of rabies

My hand got burned by a firecracker a couple of years ago. It's healed now, but I've noticed these white and pink spots where the burn was. Should I be worried about these spots, or are they normal? Is there anything I can do to make them less noticeable?
The white and pink spots on your hand are likely a result of post-burn pigmentation changes, which can occur after the skin heals. This is common and may take time to fade or even out, but if the spots persist or cause concern, a dermatologist can offer treatments to improve the appearance.
