My fianc's been dealing with this red, kinda dry, super itchy scrotum, especially where his leg creases and on the scrotum itself. It's not something we can just ignore because its pretty annoying for him. Do you have any idea what could be going on or how we might help him feel better? Is there anything specific we should try or avoid?

I recommend using an antifungal cream like Lotrimin Ultra twice a day on the affected areas for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting underwear, and avoiding scratching will help with the healing process.

I'm trying to find a qualified surgeon to remove a mole located close to my right eye. It's been bothering me for a while, and I'm a bit worried about the procedure, especially since it's so near to my eye. Can you recommend someone who specializes in this kind of surgery, or should I be asking for a specific type of specialist? Any advice on what I should consider before going through with this would be really helpful.

For mole removal near the eye, consider consulting a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon specializing in eyelid surgery, who has expertise in removing moles from sensitive areas with minimal scarring. They will assess the mole and recommend the best removal method, which may include surgical excision, shaving, or laser treatment. Be sure to discuss your concerns, the procedure, and post-operative care with your chosen surgeon.
