I'm having some trouble with rashes or a fungal infection in my inner thighs, and even though I've been using creams like Candid Total and Clobetta GM, its just not getting better. Its actually spreading to my buttocks too. Could you suggest what I should do to get some relief?

Sharp pains from kidney stones can be excruciating. Since Mefatal Spas isn't providing sufficient relief, consider the following options:

Consult your doctor about alternative pain management options, such as:

NSAIDs like Ibuprofen (Brufen) or Diclofenac (Voveran)

Muscle relaxants like Baclofen

Opioid analgesics (if prescribed by your doctor)

In addition to medication:

Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water (at least 8-10 glasses a day)

Apply heat: Use a warm compress or heating pad on the affected area

Rest: Get plenty of rest to help your body cope with the pain

If the pain persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm really concerned about some changes I've noticed on the skin of my penis head. It's been about 1.5 years and I've developed wrinkles in that area ever since I got married. Before marriage, I had this one encounter at a spa involving dry humping and a hand jobno actual intercourse. Since getting married, I've completely stopped any such activities. Could these changes in the skin be an STD, or are they possibly a result of having intercourse with my wife? There's no burning or redness, but I'm worried and would appreciate some advice. I've also taken some pictures to help explain my situation.

I'm noticing something that looks like perioral dermatitis around my mouth and chin. The only change in my life recently is that I moved to a new place with really hard water. Could the water be causing this? Also, I tried using lotion but it just made things flakier and scalier. I even used a prescription steroid cream and that didnt seem to work either. What do you think might be happening?

yes
