I'm concerned about my situation. I've been experiencing this intense itching sensation on my scrotum for the past three months. It's like pins and needles, and although there's no visible rash, it's really bothering me. Can you help me figure out what's causing this and how I might be able to relieve the itch?

I've noticed a dark red line and a spot on my nose over the past few days, and it's just getting darker. Honestly, it's starting to look pretty bad. Could you give me some advice on how to get rid of it?

This could be a sign of a skin condition or infection. I recommend using a topical antibiotic ointment like Bacitracin or Neosporin on the affected area twice a day. Additionally, you can apply a small amount of hydrocortisone cream to reduce inflammation. Make sure to keep the area clean and avoid picking at it. If the condition does not improve or worsens, please consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I've had white patches on my skin for about 10 years now and they're stable, not spreading. Thinking about getting surgery to treat them but worried if it'll leave scars on my face or the treated areas. Should I go for surgery or stick with medicines for better results?

I'm using permethrin cream for scabies and I've already applied it once over my body. Should I put it on again soon, or is it better to wait a few days before reapplying? Should it be applied continuously or is there a certain timeline to follow? I'm just not sure how often I should be using it.

apply for some days
