What should I do if I've put Dettol liquid directly on my pennies? I did this last night, applying it on both the outside and inside skin, and now I've got a burning sensation. Can you help me with how to deal with this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Applying Dettol liquid directly on the penis can cause irritation and a burning sensation on the skin. It is important to wash off the Dettol immediately with plenty of water to minimize further irritation. You can apply a soothing cream containing aloe vera or calamine lotion to help calm the skin and reduce the burning sensation. Additionally, taking an over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen can help with any discomfort. If the burning sensation persists or worsens, it is advisable to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management.

View allI've got a bruise with a yellow center on my left leg, and it's kind of weird because it was itchy at first and then got a little swollen before turning more yellow in the middle. I'm pretty sure I didn't bump into anything. Could an insect have bitten me even though I don't see any bite or puncture marks? It's painful when I press on it, and I'm getting worried it might be some kind of infection. What do you think this could be?
You may have a bruise with some inflammation and possible infection. To help with the pain and inflammation, you can take ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed. Additionally, you can apply a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the affected area twice a day. Make sure to keep the area clean and avoid scratching it. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection on my penis and FourDerm cream helped clear it up in just a few days, but now I have about 23 spots left. One of them is a noticeably bigger red spot. Are these spots part of the healing process, or should I be worried? How long might it take for my skin to look normal again?
Atleast 4-6 weeks..

I'm a 22-year-old guy and I'm experiencing some hair fall issues that's creating gaps in my hair. I've been advised to try Indulekha oil to help regrow my hair, fill those gaps, and stop the hair fall. I'm wondering about the best way to apply it. Is it okay to put the oil on at night and wash it off later? Can I use the oil every night before bed, or is that too frequent? How long should I keep up with this routine to see some results? Would love some guidance!
Yes continue all the medications.
