I have a rash on the outside of my vagina and anus that started 1 1/2 weeks ago. It burns sometimes and feels raw. The rash comes and goes with severity, especially when it's hotter. It's sometimes itchy but mostly burns, and I also have a random sore on my lower buttock that won't go away. I ride horses for work and frequently get heat rash, but I know this is different. I had unprotected sexual intercourse 2 weeks ago, and symptoms appeared 2 days later. I was diagnosed with strep throat last week and finished my Z-pack 3 days ago. I am using store-brand A&D ointment and baby powder. What could be causing the rash, and what should I do?

I'm a 22-year-old female experiencing pain with initial insertion during intercourse. The pain is consistent every time before intercourse. I've been using vaginal dilators since March, but I'm still having pain with initial insertion. I can't insert anything without resistance or pain. It feels like something is blocking the entrance from being able to insert anything effortlessly and pain-free. What could be causing this and what can I do about it?

I believe I have Covid again. I had it in August. I had chills today and I have a fever of 100.7. Should I take aspirin now to reduce the fever, or should I wait till tomorrow when I go to the emergency room?

I am a 69-year-old male with an enlarged prostate and am currently taking Tamsulosin. My doctor has recommended a TURP procedure, but I am concerned about potential side effects such as loss of ejaculation, erectile dysfunction (ED), or incontinence. Are there safer or other options available?
