Why is red dot on my testicle?
You probably have a red dot that resembles a wart on your private area and is now painful. This might be due to a viral infection known as "genital warts". It is very necessary to not scratch it as this will make the infection spread. Both diagnosis and treatment should be done by a dermatologist. Warts can be removed with medicines or procedures such as freezing or laser therapy.

Why Are Boils on My Buttocks Itching and Painful?
Boils are painful and red yet soft lumps of pus and can be filled with purulent fluid. They can be caused by bacteria that enter the skin through small cuts or hair follicles. To help with this, try applying warm compresses to the affected area. Also, wear loose-fitting clothes and keep the area clean. If your boils aren't getting better or worsen, consult a dermatologist for further treatment.

Which mild product gives good results for me?
If you have mild skin breakouts, like small pimples or redness, you can try using a product with benzoyl peroxide. These breakouts often occur when dirt and oil clog your pores, leading to bacteria that cause pimples. Benzoyl peroxide helps kill this bacteria and heal the pimples. Make sure to wash your face thoroughly before applying the product as directed on the label. If you experience dryness, it might be due to benzoyl peroxide, so it's a good idea to apply a moisturizer after the treatment.

What Mouthwash or Pain Relief Product for Mouth Ulcers?
Having a painful mouth ulcer can be uncomfortable. For some, the first signs of it manifest as a burning or tingling sensation. However, ulcers can also be induced by emotional stress, or injury to the mouth, or even eating certain food types. As a sedative, a gentle mouthwash that does not contain alcohol should suffice for you to clean the area of an ulcer. Besides, it's also possible to glue a pain relief gel or to swallow a tablet for pain relief. Bloating or blistering, which can be caused by spicy or acidic foods, should also be avoided. These foods may exacerbate your ulcer.

Could a Rainy Season Insect Bite Cause Fever and Pimple?
You have had a mosquito or some other insect biting you. The white transparent layer could be your body's way of protecting from the bite. Feeling cold and feverish after an insect bite is common as your body fights off any possible infection. Ensure the area is clean and put a mild antiseptic cream on the wound. If you experience any of the alarming signs i.e. increasing pain or redness, see a dermatologist.

Why Do I Have Persistent Armpit Rash?
Under your armpits, you seem to have a persistent rash. Your description suggests intertrigo, a fungal infection. When skin rubs together and moisture gets trapped, fungi can thrive. To ease itching, try an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. Keep the area clean and dry. Avoid tight clothes. Use a gentle, unscented soap. If the rash persists, your dermatologist may prescribe an antifungal cream.

Why Do I Have a Brown Line on Toe Nail from Jogging?
A bruised toenail might explain the brown line you noticed. Repeated pressure and friction from shoes during jogging often cause this issue. Occasionally, bleeding occurs beneath the nail. Discomfort or swelling around the toe may arise. To promote healing, ensure proper shoe fit and provide rest for your toe. Over time, this condition should resolve itself. If not, visit a dermatologist.
