Question 4

Ive noticed that the skin near my tailbone has torn in the upper middle portion, and its been cracking. Its really painful, and Im not sure whats causing it. What could it be?

Accepted Answer

Could be due to a condition called a pilonidal cyst. This can cause pain and discomfort in the area. I recommend keeping the area clean and dry to prevent infection. You can apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day to help with healing. Additionally, taking a pain reliever like ibuprofen can help with the pain. If the pain persists or if there are signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or drainage of pus, please consult a doctor for further evaluation and treatment.

Question 5

Last night I had sex and was doing it in between my partners legs. Afterward, I felt a burn on my penis and this morning noticed two burns on the head. I applied aloe vera gel to it. What should I do to heal this?

Accepted Answer

You may have experienced some irritation or friction burns during intercourse. To help with the healing process and reduce discomfort, you can continue using aloe vera gel. Additionally, you can also consider using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any further irritation until the burns have healed. If the burns worsen or do not improve, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
