I'm really concerned about these pearly penile papules I've got they're white spots on the glans of my penis. I've never been sexually active and I'm still a virgin, so I'm not sure where they came from. What can I do to get rid of them, aside from using castor oil and tea tree oil?

View allI'm prescribed Trichodixil tablets, but they're pretty expensive compared to New Follihair tablets, which seem to have a similar or even better composition. Can I switch to Follihair instead? And about this Minokem F 5 topical solution I'm using - it's quite pricey too! Is Brintop F 5 a good alternative?
Yes ,continue all the medications. as advised.

I've been dealing with this persistent skin allergy that causes swelling all over my body. My doctor mentioned it might be due to seafood, but the allergy hasn't stopped. I've been on Allegra 120mg for the last four months, but the moment I miss even a single dose, the allergy flares up again. I'm worried about the long-term side effects of taking this medication. Is there any advice or a different solution you can suggest?
It seems like you are experiencing a persistent allergic reaction despite taking Allegra (Fexofenadine) 120mg daily. In such cases, you may benefit from a different class of antihistamines such as Cetirizine (Zyrtec) 10mg once daily or Loratadine (Claritin) 10mg once daily. Additionally, you can consider adding a mast cell stabilizer like Cromolyn sodium (Nasalcrom) to prevent the release of histamine in your body. It is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen.

I'm really embarrassed to talk about this, but I've noticed something called Trichomycosis Pubis that appeared around 4 months ago. It's really grossing me out and makes me feel unclean. I haven't told my parents and I really want to get rid of it as soon as possible. Any advice on what I should do?
topical antibiotic cream like clindamycin or mupirocin, which can effectively treat the infection. Antiseptic washes like chlorhexidine or benzoyl peroxide can also be used to clean the affected area. Proper Hygiene: Keep the area clean and dry. Regular washing with mild soap and water is important to avoid excessive sweating or moisture, as bacteria thrive in these environments. Avoid using harsh soaps or scrubbing, as it may irritate the skin.
