I've noticed these small white bumps appearing on the bottom part of my penis shaft for a while now, and recently there seem to be more. They're now covering most of the base and the underside of my shaft. Can anyone tell me what these might be and suggest any possible treatments? I'm really curious and a bit worried about it.

You may be experiencing Fordyce spots, which are small, harmless spots that can appear on the penis. These spots are usually sebaceous glands and are considered a normal variation. There is no need for treatment as they are benign. However, if you are concerned or experiencing any discomfort, you can consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and reassurance.

I've been dealing with white, dry patches around my groin area, including on the scrotum and penis. I was diagnosed with a fungal infection a few months ago and took medication which cleared up the infection, but the dryness and skin flaking haven't gone away. Any ideas on what might be causing this or how I can treat it? I'm kind of worried about it.

I've been having some trouble with itching and dryness around the pubic area for the last few days. I tried washing with Dettol and used Vaseline petroleum jelly and coconut oil, which helped a bit, but the sides where the panties sit still hurt like they would if they were too tight. The pain has gone down now, but the dryness and a little bit of itching are still there. What should I do to get rid of this?
For relief from itching, dryness, and discomfort in the pubic area, continue maintaining good hygiene, and consider applying a fragrance-free, hypoallergenic moisturizer or a cream containing urea or hyaluronic acid to soothe and lock in moisture; additionally, wear breathable, loose-fitting clothing, avoid tight-fitting panties, and refrain from using harsh soaps or douching, as these can exacerbate dryness and irritation.
