I've noticed a white patch on the skin of my penis, just under the head, and there are some small bumps that sometimes turn red. It's worrying me a bit because I'm not sure what's causing it. Could you give me some insight into what might be going on? Is this something I should be concerned about?

The symptoms you've described, including a white patch and small bumps on the penis skin that become red, may indicate a condition such as balanitis, a fungal or bacterial infection,to determine the cause and receive proper treatment, consult a urologist or a dermatologist, who may perform a physical examination, take a swab or biopsy, and prescribe topical or oral medications to address the underlying condition.

I've been dealing with some issues for the past 10 months involving my penis. I'm experiencing symptoms like khaijal, danesu, jankhujli, and a burning sensation after I pee. It's really uncomfortable and I'm not sure what's causing all of this. Could you help me understand what's going on and what I might do about it?

I strongly advise you to consult a dermatologist or a urologist as soon as possible for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

I've just gotten over Covid last Sunday, but now I'm dealing with these really uncomfortable skin rashes on my neck, armpits, and under my breasts. I've tried using prickly heat powder and coconut oil, but things seem to be getting worse and now I've got these red patches under my breasts. Theyve become really sensitive too, and I'm getting pretty scared because I'm not sure what's happening. The rashes are painful and making me really uncomfortable. Could this be related to my recent illness, or is it something else? What should I do?

I've been using Melamet cream for dark spot removal, and I saw it contains Hydroquinone, Tretinoin, and Mometasone Furoate. I'm a bit concerned about whether it's safe to use this regularly on my face. Could you share some advice on this?
