I've been noticing that small cuts on the top of my penis are getting bigger. How can I get rid of them?

It sounds like you might be experiencing a skin condition or infection, which could be causing the cuts to worsen. I recommend seeing a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment, which may include topical treatments or antibiotics depending on the cause.

I'm dealing with a persistent fungal infection that's been bothering me for about 4 years now and I'm also overweight. I've heard about a medication called Itaspor that might help with antifungal infections. Do you think it could be effective for my situation?

Itaspor (Itraconazole) is a well-established antifungal medication, effective against various fungal infections, including: 1. Dermatophyte infections (e.g., ringworm, athlete's foot) 2. Candidiasis (e.g., thrush, vaginal yeast infections) 3. Aspergillosis However, considering your 4-year history of fungal infections and being overweight, it's essential to consult a doctor to determine the best course of treatment. Factors to Consider 1. Type and severity of infection: Your doctor will assess the type of fungal infection and its severity to determine the most effective treatment. 2. Underlying health conditions: Being overweight can increase the risk of developing certain health conditions, such as diabetes, which can affect the immune system and fungal infection treatment. 3. Potential interactions with other medications: Your doctor will review your medication list to ensure that Itaspor doesn't interact with other medications you're taking. 4. Liver function: Itraconazole can affect liver function, so your doctor may monitor your liver enzymes during treatment.

I've got a skin tag on the shaft of my penis, and I'm not sure how to get rid of it. I tried cutting it off once, but it bled and just came back a few days later. I'm curious about what might be causing it and if there's a more effective way to remove it. Any advice?

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
