Is this heat rash?

I was diagnosed with Ocular Rosacea about two months ago. The ophthalmologist put me on a treatment plan that included Restasis, serum tear drops, Aveeno spray to clean my lashes, and Lotemax with an antibiotic. I stopped using the Lotemax and antibiotic due to concerns about potential glaucoma from the steroids. My lower eyelids are swollen and have been for several weeks, though they improved while on Lotemax. The ophthalmologist suggested I might have a thyroid issue. My thyroid blood work showed TSH at 2.68 and Thyroid Free at 0.57 (US results). I am worried about having Graves Disease or dermamyositis. My face has a reddened appearance on my cheeks and the sides of my face, but it's not very bright red like typical Rosacea. Can you share your thoughts on this matter?

I have two firm bumps on my scrotum, one on each side, that feel like cysts. They don't hurt unless I mess with them and feel slightly more swollen. I'm 25 years old and have had no known exposure to sexually transmitted diseases. Could these bumps be related to ingrown hairs from shaving, and should I be worried?

Hi Doctor Subbanna, I had a problem with my wrist vein. After receiving a Myers cocktail and glutathione IV push, I felt an electric-like sensation moving from my wrist to my thumb and pointer finger. Now, every time I move or hold my wrist, I feel an electric sensation in the vein. What could be causing this and how can it be treated?
