I've got this boil on my right testicle that showed up a couple of days ago. Yesterday, pus started coming out of it, and the area around it is really hard and constantly hurts. I'm not sure what to do. Can you help me figure this out?

I've been dealing with an allergy for about 56 days. I've noticed these red, itchy dots on my hands and legs. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I might be able to do about it?

Allergic contact dermatitis (e.g., soap, detergent, or metal) 2. Atopic dermatitis (eczema) 3. Insect bites or stings 4.
