Question

I'm really worried about my wife. She's had this pimple-like bump on her breast for almost two years now. It doesn't hurt her, but today the white layer on top came off, and it started bleeding a little. I'm not sure what we should do to treat it. Could you please give us some advice?

Question

I'm noticing a small spot on my hand that's kind of a light pink or white color, definitely lighter than my skin. It's about 12mm and it's the only one I have on my whole body. I'm really curious if this could be vitiligo. Could that be possible?

Question

I've been noticing this white powder under my nails whenever I scrape my scalp. It's not itchy, and I don't see flakes or dandruff. I shower daily, so I'm quite clean. The powder is a bit waxy. Is this just sebum, or could it be something unusual? Is this normal for scalp skin and only becomes visible after scraping?
