Does masturbation lead to getting HIV or AIDS? Also, I've had pimples on my face, should I be worried about having AIDS because of that? And there was this one time when I felt some pain in my pelvic area, is that something related to AIDS too?

View allI'm 25 and I've been using Cloben G for a couple of months, but now that I've stopped, my face has turned red and it's super itchy with these rashes. I'm really not sure what to do next. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
This could be due to withdrawal effects or rebound effects from the steroid in the cream. To help with the redness and itching, you can try using a mild topical corticosteroid like hydrocortisone cream twice a day on the affected areas. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like cetirizine once daily to help with the itching. Make sure to keep your skin moisturized and avoid any harsh skincare products. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

My younger sister is 23, and she has been dealing with these black spots all over her body for the past two years. She's seen a bunch of doctors, but there hasn't been any improvement. We're really concerned about what to do next. Any suggestions or possible solutions?
To address this issue, I recommend she try using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream. She can apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected areas once daily in the evening. Additionally, she should use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to protect her skin from further darkening. If there is no improvement after a few weeks of consistent use, she should consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with some dry skin and cracks on my scrotum, and there's a sticky fluid coming out. This has been happening for the past two days. I've also been having issues with a fungal infection that caused red rashes on my thighs, which I'm already getting treatment for. I'm kind of worried about why this new symptom has come up. Could it be related to the fungal infection treatment, or is it something entirely different? Any advice on what I should do next would be really helpful.
Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.
