What if I just rinsed my hands with a good amount of water after getting sperm on them but forgot to use soap? Do I need to be worried about cleanliness or any risks?

View allI'm really struggling with acne right now and I'm curious about what actually causes it and how I can treat it. Also, I've heard mixed things about whether masturbation can cause acne and would love some clarity on that. Can you help me understand this better?
Acne is caused by a combination of factors including excess oil production, clogged hair follicles, bacteria, and inflammation. To treat acne, you can use topical treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. In more severe cases, oral medications like isotretinoin may be prescribed. It is important to maintain a good skincare routine and avoid picking or squeezing acne lesions. There is no scientific evidence to suggest that masturbation causes acne.

I've been dealing with some really intense itching around my groin area, and it's starting to worry me. There are these small dark pink patches and nothing seems to really help. I've tried using Neosporin powder and cream, but they only provide some relief for a short while. I'm starting to think it might be a fungal issue. What could be causing this and what should I do to get lasting relief?
Severe itching in the groin area with dark pink small patches is likely indicative of a fungal infection, such as jock itch (tinea cruris). In addition to Neosporin, which is an antibiotic and may not be effective against fungi, you should consider using an antifungal medication. I recommend using Lotrimin Ultra cream twice daily for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding sharing towels or clothing can help prevent the spread of the infection.
