I'm experiencing dry, shiny, wrinkled skin on the left side of my scrotum. It is non-itchy, no redness, and no discomfort. The appearance is causing anxiety. Should I just moisturize and continue to monitor the symptoms?

I am dehydrated after playing tennis for 3 hours today. I have had some cramping and diarrhea from drinking so much salt water. I am drinking Gatorade and electrolyte drinks. I have had a little dizziness too. Do I need to go to the ER?

I just found out that I have genital warts. Is it possible that I contracted it years ago? Is there a cure for HPV genital warts, or do I have to suffer for the rest of my life? Can HPV be cured by the immune system? Is it possible that my HPV and my girlfriend's HPV are different types of infection? Can I spread HPV if I don't have warts? Are plantar warts the same as genital warts? Can a person get the vaccine even if they have been exposed to an HPV strain? Can I still get the vaccine at 33 years old? Will the warts go away or come back? Will they recur forever? Can my girlfriend retake the vaccine while pregnant? Will the baby be ok?

I have had low platelet counts around 56-69 thousand for many years. I experience frequent black and blue marks on my body, red dots on my stomach, and nose bleeds. My oncologist says not to worry unless the count drops below 50,000. I am concerned due to family history of liver issues and a sister who had a liver transplant. What should I do?
