I've noticed these pink bumps or genital warts on the glans of my penis for about 16 years now. I suspect it might be HPV, but Ive never had any tests or diagnosis done. They dont cause any health problems and haven't really changed in number, maybe just a tiny increase over the years. I haven't had any treatment yet. What do you think I should do about this?

I'm dealing with a fungal infection, and I'm really unsure about whether it's safe to use soap in the affected areas, specifically around the groin and anal ring. What should I do?

Yes, you can use antifungal soap in the affected areas like the groin and anal ring surrounding area. You can use a soap containing ketoconazole or terbinafine. Make sure to lather the soap and leave it on the skin for a few minutes before rinsing off. Use it twice daily for best results.

I have an abscess that's not coming to a head and keeps getting bigger each day. I'm on antibiotics but it's still itchy, hard around the edges, and soft and swollen in the middle. Will the antibiotics be enough to treat this or will I need surgery?

Large abscess that’s not draining usually needs incision & drainage.Incision helps antibiotics work;waiting may worsen infection.

I'm dealing with this really annoying pain right at my tailbone and on the skin around it, exactly where the upper part of the butt cheeks meet. It usually flares up when I'm lying on my back and puts pressure on that area. Honestly, it's been so painful that it's making sleep tough. I've had a bed sore just above that spot for years, but it sorta dried up. This new pain started about a week ago. I'm really confused about whether this is a skin thing or more of a bone issue. Who should I talk to? Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
