Is treatment needed for sensitive glans and tight foreskin?
It sounds like you might have a condition called phimosis, where the foreskin is too tight to pull back over the head of the penis. This can lead to difficulty with hygiene and discomfort. It's important to have this evaluated by a urologist to rule out any underlying issues like infection or inflammation. Treatment options may include topical steroids, gentle stretching exercises, or in some cases, a minor surgical procedure called a circumcision. I recommend scheduling an appointment with a urologist for a proper assessment and to discuss the best course of action for you.

Why do I have white coating under foreskin?
White coating under the foreskin is quite common and can be caused by a few things. One possibility is a buildup of smegma, which is a mixture of dead skin cells and oils. This can happen if the area isn't cleaned regularly. Another reason could be a yeast infection, especially if there's also redness, itching, or a yeasty smell. To address this, it's important to gently clean the area daily with warm water and mild soap. If there are any other symptoms present, it's best to see a dermatologist for further evaluation and appropriate treatment.

Why is my face black after using Medisalic ointment?
You might be experiencing a condition called hyperpigmentation, which is when some of the skin is darker. Medisalic ointment might not be the right move since it has powerful steroids that may have adverse effects on your skin. I suggest quitting the ointment and soothing your skin with a gentle moisturizer. Additional tip - sun protection - you can cover your skin with a hat or sunscreen. If the issue persists, it's best to seek advice from a dermatologist.

Solution for stubborn scalp rash after using Selsun Shampoo
This could be seborrheic dermatitis, a condition causing red, flaky patches. Regular dandruff shampoos may not cut it here. Try using a medicated shampoo with ketoconazole or coal tar instead. If that pesky rash sticks around, it's smart to chat with a dermatologist. They can properly check it out and suggest treatments to make that rash hit the road.

Why do I have itchy watery pimples on my penis?
You have a condition called genital herpes. This harmless infection can result in the formation of watery pimples on the penis and also cause itchiness. Genital herpes is most commonly transmitted through sexual contact. For its treatment, you can take antiviral medications prescribed by a dermatologist. It's best to refrain from sexual contact until the pimples have healed to prevent the virus from spreading.

How can I stop using steroids cream after long term use at 20 years old?
Long-term use of this steroid cream should be undergone with caution because it may result in some negative effects e.g. skin thinning and/or infections. The use of the cream should be halted gradually. Cutting the dose of the cream immediately may lead to the onset of the withdrawal symptoms. This calls for consulting a dermatologist.

Can I use glutathione tablets safely and side effects?
Glutathione happens to be a natural antioxidant. Glutathione tablets are being used by some to make their skin light, though these are not approved for this. Using glutathione tablets can lead to gastrointestinal problems such as tummy discomfort like cramps or bloating. On the other hand, a large amount could lead to kidney troubles. As far as the chances of withdrawal are concerned, it is better to discuss this matter with a dermatologist first to minimize the adverse effects resulting from the withdrawal.
