View allI've been dealing with an issue where I keep getting red rashes and occasionally white shiny patches on my penis. The skin sometimes gets moist, and I notice a thick white substance under the foreskin. Along with this, there's itching and a burning sensation. I've been using candid b cream, and it works for a while, but the problem comes back after about a month. I even tried taking some antibacterial tablets for a week, but nothing seems to make it go away for good. This has been going on for like 5 or 6 years now, and I'm really not sure what to do next. Any advice?
Recurring genital candidiasis (thrush) for 5-6 years indicates a chronic condition. Candid B cream provides temporary relief, but the infection persists. _Consider the Following_ 1. _Antifungal resistance_: The fungus might be resistant to Candid B cream. 2. _Underlying health conditions_: Diabetes, weakened immune system, or other health issues might contribute to the recurring infection. 3. _Poor hygiene or moisture_: Trapped moisture under the foreskin or other skin folds can exacerbate the infection. _Recommended Next Steps_ 1. _Consult a urologist or dermatologist_: Get a proper diagnosis and guidance on treatment. 2. _Culture test_: A culture test can help identify the underlying cause of the infection. 3. _Prescription medication_: Your doctor might prescribe stronger antifungal medication or a combination of medications. 4. _Improve hygiene and moisture management_: Keep the genital area clean and dry, and avoid sharing personal care items.

I'm experiencing a strange, random stinging sensation on my skin all over my body. I'm not exactly sure what kind of tests I need. Should I be looking at seeing a neurologist, or would a dermatologist be a better option for this kind of issue? Any guidance would be appreciated.
Neurologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've developed this dark and rough skin on the sides of my nose, and while it doesn't itch much, it's been bothering me for about 3-4 months now. I scratched it once out of irritation, and that only made it worse. Though it's reduced a bit since then, I'm still not seeing much improvement. I tried using lemon juice, but it burned, so I've switched to aloe gel, but it doesn't seem to be helping either. Any idea what might be causing this and what I could do to make it better?
Consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized guidance, and in the meantime, try using a gentle exfoliating scrub, a topical cream containing niacinamide or kojic acid, and a broad-spectrum sunscreen to help improve the dark, rough skin on the sides of your nose.
