I'm having trouble fully retracting the skin on my penis because it seems attached to the frenulum. What can I do to address this, and is there an easy way to deal with it?

You cant remove it.if it is painful or unable to retract the foreskin,then that could be phymosis for which you have to visit your surgeon for appropriate management.

I'm dealing with this stubborn ringworm issue for about 6 months now. It seems like whenever it fades a bit, it just flares back up again. I've tried ointments and tablets but haven't seen any real improvement. What else should I be doing? Any advice would be appreciated because I'm really getting frustrated with this.

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.

I've noticed that my lips have been super dry lately, even though I've been taking riboflavin supplements and using seacod. I've also been applying Betnovate N ointment, but nothing seems to help. Should I be worried, or is there something else I should be doing to fix this?

stop ointment and just moisturise

I've been dealing with scalp psoriasis and psoriasis on other parts of my body, and I've tried all sorts of medications, but it seems like they only provide temporary relief. Is there anything out there that might work as a permanent treatment? I'd love some advice on this as it's really been bothering me.

For scalp psoriasis and psoriasis, there is no permanent cure, but there are treatments that can help manage the symptoms effectively. Topical treatments such as clobetasol propionate (0.05%) solution can be applied directly to the scalp to reduce inflammation and itching. In addition, systemic medications like methotrexate or biologics such as adalimumab can be prescribed by a dermatologist to help control psoriasis flare-ups. It is important to follow up regularly with your healthcare provider to adjust the treatment plan as needed.
