View allI've noticed a lump on the skin of my penis shaft that just appeared out of nowhere. It's not painful or itchy, which is a relief, but I'm a bit worried about what it could mean. I haven't done anything that might have caused it, except maybe I masturbated about 23 days ago. Any idea what this could be? Should I be concerned?
Thats unusual,visit General Physician for appropriate approach.and maintain balanced diet and healthy lifestyle

I've been dealing with a fungus patch on my skin. I saw a doctor and they gave me TERBITOTAL 500 and Funzi NM cream. These seemed to help but only temporarily. I really want to completely get rid of it. Can you please advise on what I should do?
You have to use the medications as a course as advised by your doctor, usually after starting the medications the infection fades but to eliminate it you have to continue the medicines for specific time period.and hygiene practices is more important.

I've got this burn on my right hand from spilling hot water a while back. I've been using silverkind ointment as the doctor suggested, but now I'm seeing these red pigments pop up and there's this constant itching. Is this normal, or should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing an allergic reaction to the silver sulfadiazine in the Silverkind ointment. I recommend stopping the ointment immediately and washing the affected area with mild soap and water. You can apply a topical corticosteroid cream like Hydrocortisone 1% cream to reduce inflammation and itching. Additionally, taking an oral antihistamine like Cetirizine 10mg once daily can help with the itching. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and management.
