I've noticed some white patches on the skin of my penis. They don't really hurt, but they just seem odd to me. Could you guide me on where I should go for treatment and what type of doctor I should consult to address this issue?

I've got these small itchy bumps in my pubic area that keep spreading and look really bad. They don't cause major issues besides the itching, but I'm worried about how they're multiplying. Could you recommend any creams or meds to make them fade or go away? I'd prefer not to do surgery right now.

Itchy, spreading bumps in the pubic area could be due to various reasons, ranging from simple skin irritations to infections. While you can try some over-the-counter treatments, it's best to consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan, especially if the bumps are spreading or cause significant discomfort.

I've been struggling with jock itch for a couple of years now, and it's been getting worse. The affected area keeps growing and now it's all over my butt. I've tried using antifungal soap and cream, but it never seems to go away for good. It just keeps coming back. What can I do to completely get rid of this? What's the best treatment to finally cure it?

Jock itch, also known as tinea cruris, is a fungal infection that affects the skin in the groin area. For persistent cases like yours, oral antifungal medications may be necessary for complete eradication. I recommend taking Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4 weeks along with applying Clotrimazole cream twice daily to the affected areas. Additionally, keeping the affected area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing personal items can help prevent recurrence.

My palms and feet sweat excessively and it's really bothering me. Is there any permanent treatment or surgery that can stop this? I've tried everything but nothing seems to work long-term.

Excessive sweating (palms/feet) may respond to iontophoresis or Botox; thoracic sympathectomy is a surgical cure but has risks like compensatory sweating.
