Why do I have itchy bumps on my scrotum and penis?
There is a chance you are experiencing folliculitis which is a common condition. Folliculitis is a term used to describe a situation when hair follicles become inflamed and infected. Symptoms can consist of red spots, itching, and in some cases pus formation. Friction, sweat, or bacteria are the possible culprits for this. If it doesn't improve, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further assistance.

How can I treat pimples and blackheads effectively?
Pimples can occur due to excess oil production in the skin and impurities clogging the pores with dirt or dead skin cells. Sometimes, the cream you used before may no longer work because your skin can develop a tolerance to it. I suggest you try a different cream or face wash containing either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, which can help unclog pores and treat your pimples and blackheads. Remember to wash your face gently twice a day and avoid touching your face too much. If the problem persists or worsens, don’t hesitate to consult a dermatologist for a thorough examination and personalized treatment.

The peeling skin could be caused by irritation, dryness, or an allergic reaction. Perhaps, the soreness comes from the skin being a bit burned. Keep your hands moisturized with lotion and don't pick at the skin. If it's not getting any better or if it's getting worse, visit a dermatologist.

Why is my labia swollen, itchy, and flaking?
You may have suffered trauma to your labia. The scratches and bleeding can make the situation worse by causing dryness and irritation which will result in swelling and itching. The white discharge having a metallic smell might suggest that you have an infection. It's vital to refrain from using creams if you don't know the cause. Gently washing with water and wearing loose clothes can help. Proper diagnosis and treatment should be the first step you consider seeing a gynecologist for.
