View allI've been using Cosmolite cream for the past three years, but I've noticed that since I've stopped, the skin around my mouth and eyes has turned darker. I'm pretty worried about this change. Could you give me some advice on how to get my natural skin tone back in those areas? Any suggestions or treatments you could recommend would be really appreciated.
The darkening of skin around your mouth and eyes after stopping Cosmolite cream suggests rebound hyperpigmentation or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH); to recover, try: applying sunscreen with SPF 30+ daily, using topical creams containing niacinamide, vitamin C, or kojic acid, and exfoliating gently with alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs); consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance and potential prescription-strength treatments.

I'm experiencing some itchy spots developing on my scrotum that aren't really painful, but they're releasing this non-smelly, kinda sticky fluid. I'm a bit worried about what this could mean. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really worried because I've had these white bumps on my penis head for like 7 or 8 months now. They tingle when I touch them, and it's freaking me out a bit. I've never had sex, so I know it's not an STD. I used to do dry masturbation by rubbing against the bed, but I've already seen a GP who checked me for STDs and UTIs and said everything's negative. He gave me some Clotrimazole cream to try for a week, but it hasn't helpedactually, it seems like its getting worse. Should I be seeing a dermatologist or a urologist for this? Any advice would be really appreciated.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition called pearly penile papules (PPP), which are small, dome-shaped to filiform skin-colored papules that typically appear around the corona of the glans penis. PPP is a benign anatomical variant and is not considered a sexually transmitted infection. Since the Clotrimazole cream did not improve your symptoms, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for further evaluation and management. You can ask your dermatologist about using topical treatments such as Podophyllotoxin cream or Tretinoin cream to help reduce the appearance of the bumps. In some cases, laser therapy may also be considered for more severe or persistent cases of PPP. It's important to follow up with a dermatologist for personalized treatment recommendations and to address any concerns you may have.
