Question

Can you tell me if it's possible to get dimples without having surgery? I wasn't naturally born with them, and I'm really curious if there are exercises or anything else that might help?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to create permanent dimples without surgery. Dimples are genetic traits that are caused by a small opening in the cheek muscle. However, there are some facial exercises that may help enhance the appearance of dimples. One exercise involves smiling widely and pressing your fingers into the sides of your cheeks where dimples would naturally form. Hold this position for a few seconds and repeat several times a day. Remember, results may vary and these exercises may not create permanent dimples.

I'm really concerned about my wife. For the last 23 days, she's had this red rash with a black spot on her hand. It doesnt seem to itch until she actually starts scratching it. It's odd because it's only on one hand. I've attached a photo. Could someone help me figure out what this might be?
