I'm dealing with these small itchy bumps just inside my butt, near the anus. It's really uncomfortable because they itch a lot, and even when I try not to scratch, bits of my skin come off. I've got a picture if that would help explain it better. What do you think it could be?

I'm wondering if Soframycin skin cream is safe to use for cuts on the glans of the penis. If it's not the best option, can you suggest another cream that's more suitable for healing glan cuts? Really looking for the best recommendation.

I would recommend using an antibiotic cream like Neosporin or Bactroban. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected area twice a day for optimal healing. Remember to keep the area clean and dry to prevent infection.

I'm noticing some redness on the forehead of my penis; it kind of looks like ringworm. It doesn't hurt or itch, but it's a round red spot. What could this be, and what should I do about it?

use ointment clotrimazole at night, keep the area dry as much as possible
