I'm 52 and pretty short compared to the rest of my tall family, except for my dad's mom. I'm wondering if there are natural ways to increase my height without resorting to unnecessary medicines, or if it's just in my genes. Any advice?

For fungal infections, Candid B cream is usually preferred over dusting powder for its moisturizing and soothing properties. However, Candid dusting powder can be used in certain situations: When to use Candid dusting powder: 1. Excessive sweating: Powder can help keep the area dry. 2. Intertrigo: Powder can help reduce friction and moisture. Alternatives: 1. Clotrimazole cream: An antifungal cream that can be used as an alternative. 2. Miconazole powder: Another antifungal powder option. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before switching or using alternative treatments.
