My skin's been really dry and it's causing quite a bit of pain. Someone suggested I try using Venusia cream, but I'm worried it might have steroids in it. Can you help me figure out if this cream is safe to use, or if I should look for something else?

if you want to ensure that the cream you are using does not contain steroids, you can use Venusia Max Cream. It is a steroid-free moisturizing cream that can help with dry and painful skin. Apply a thin layer of Venusia Max Cream on the affected area twice a day for best results.

I'm dealing with something really weird for almost a year now, the skin on my penis has been super dry. Every time I take a shower and try to clean it, the skin cracks open, which is really painful. I constantly have to put on Vaseline to stop it from drying out even more. Even the inside of the skin feels pretty dry. Any idea what's going on or what I should do?

This could be fungal infection u need to evaluate with your Dermatologist and get appropriate treatment with oral antifungal medications and topical lotions,once the infection is resolved your hair fall would come down,I suggest you not to use minoxidil with active fungal infection,above this your personal hygiene care is more important.

I'm dealing with a recurring corn in the same spot even after having it surgically removed. I'm considering going the ayurvedic route, maybe even something like agnikarma. My big worry is, will the skin grow back normally there? And if so, how long does that usually take? Also, I'm curious about how laser removal works for this. How does the skin heal afterward?

To address your concerns, skin regrowth after surgical removal of a corn can take several weeks to months, Agnikarma is a traditional Ayurvedic treatment that can be effective in removing corns, and laser removal uses high-intensity light to target and remove affected skin tissue, with skin recovery typically taking a few days to a week.
