Live vaccine for dengue fever
My son lives in Bali. He is in the middle of a very severe bout of dengue fever. I am going to visit him for 3 weeks in July. He has suggested I should have a vaccine before I go. I can find that it is called a " live attenuated dengue tetravalent vaccine". Even the vaccine side effects can be pretty

Vulva skin lesions
I have been having what a general practitioner called "vulvar dermatitis" since 2016. I'm not convinced of the treatment or the diagnosis. Let me explain. I have a history of autoimmune disease (Hashimoto, Rheumatoid Arthritis). I didn't find out until recently that Bechet's disease also runs in my

14 year old son with tight foreskin, will he need surgery
My son recently told his dad that his foreskin doesn't retract. I think he was to embarrassed to talk to me. Took him to the doctors and was told to apply steroid cream and was told try gentle stretching. Went back a month later, and although the foreskin is less tight and now retracting it's not fully

Sore perineum and vulvar
I have a pudendal nerve entrapment diagnosis of 8 years now but recently the pain from the anal area has now moved to my vaginal area causing really bad pain in vagina, vulva and perineum. I was given hormone cream to insert by gp as she thought it was menopausal symptoms. This didn't work. I revisited

Are Toe sores part of Bechets?
Hi there, Does anyone else get little sores between toes and belive them to be part of Bechets? I saw a new Dr Rheumatologist today who thinks it more likely a fungal thing. She admitted to not having many or any other Bechets patients on her book. The sores sometimes look like a spot other times

Has anyone developed Lichen Sclerosus after pelvic radiotherapy?
I was recently diagnosed with Lichen Sclerosus in the genital area. I had chemoradiotherapy 14 years ago for SCC rectum. The cause of LS is not known though trauma to the skin is thought to be one contributory factor. I am extremely worried about this recent development as LS is associated with the development

Phimosis
Hi all, I’ve had phimosis since I was a teenager due to a scar on my penis. I’m able to retract it completely normally with no problems when flaccid. I can also fully retract it when erect, although it takes a fair bit of resistance and is uncomfortable when retracting, making sex uncomfortable. I’

rash for 5 months now
hi I’ve had an all over body rash the past 5 months and dermatologist is convinced is because of a virus. No signs of it improving. I’m so worn out with it now. Antihistamines are doing nothing and neither is the steroid cream. Please give some advice what else this could be. They are flat pink spots
