Question

I've been dealing with some itching around my penis for the past couple of months, and it's turned into these mild red patches around there and on my lower thighs. I've tried using BETNOVATE GM cream, and it helps for a bit, but then the problem comes right back. Its really embarrassing, especially when I'm out in public. Could you suggest a cream or any other treatment that might help with this?

Question

I'm dealing with some serious pain and I got my CBC report back yesterday showing increased TLC or ESR levels. The local doctor mentioned it's causing these boils (funsi foda), but the stuff I got from them isnt helping, and the pain is just too much to handle. Can you please guide me on how to tackle this issue?

Question

I've got a healthy weight, but my cheeks are super thin, and it just doesn't look great. I'm sticking to a nutritious diet, doing pranayama, and keeping up with exercise, but my cheeks still look really thin. How can I get fuller cheeks and glowing skin? I'm not dealing with any diseases or anything. Any advice?
