I noticed some peeling skin on the side of my penis a couple of days ago, which now has turned into a dry spot with some irritation. I had a recent encounter with a girl involving foreplay but no intercourse. Could this be a yeast infection, and if so, can I use Lotrimin (which I used for athlete's foot before)? Could it be something else, and what are the symptoms of male yeast infections?

I haven't had a check-up with a doctor since I was a teen and I'm unsure if I should be searching for a PCP, family doctor, or generalist for a routine check-up. Which one should I search for?

My mom has little blood in her stool and feels some pressure in the rectal area. She passed stool 3 times yesterday, with only 2 instances of blood. Her stool is thin but normal in color, and she does not have any other symptoms or illnesses. She does not have blood on the toilet paper and feels pressure on the anus after using the bathroom. She is over 50 and does not feel pain when passing stool. Should she get a colonoscopy?
