If I have used steroid cream 10 months ago and use it now for a week, can it cause any harm to the skin? Additionally, I have been applying an over-the-counter hydro 1% ointment for 3 days to treat a skin condition on my penis, which my doctor suggested might help. Can I share photos to determine if it has caused any harm and if it's improving? I also experience a burn sensation when the area is warm.

I had back pain all night and woke up with burning pee. I have a history of UTI and bacterial infections. The doctor tested and found high white blood cell count but no bacteria initially. Further tests showed bacteria, indicating a kidney infection. I experienced blood in urine, night sweats, and back pain. I completed two rounds of antibiotics but still have back pain, bladder pressure, urgency to urinate, and leukocytes on dip tests. A CT scan and CBC showed normal results, and the infection is supposedly gone. Why do I still have these symptoms, and could I have developed cystitis from the kidney infection?

I have had a hard abdomen for months with no pain and normal digestion. The hardness varies, and it started around the time my mother went into assisted living, possibly stress-related. I have a sensitive prostate and had a bilateral inguinal hernia about 15 years ago. My diet doesn't seem to affect the hardness, and I'm generally trim except for my abdomen. I don't consume sugary drinks or alcohol. What can I do to resolve this issue?

I've had burning pain in my chest that shoots through to my back for a couple of years. It was originally diagnosed as hypersensitive esophagitis and treated with trazodone, which helped initially. Recently, it stopped working, and an endoscopy showed bile in my stomach. My doctor put me on colestipol, but there's been no improvement. How long does it take for colestipol to work? Will it help with my pain? Is there anything that really helps to treat pain caused by bile reflux?
