I've got this pretty big lump, even bigger than a quarter, right in my butt crack, about three inches from my anus. I think it might have pus in it. I've had smaller lumps like this before, but they've never been this big or painful. What could be going on, and should I be worried about it?

Question

I had some fish earlier and then drank buttermilk about an hour later. Now, my dad mentioned that combining the two might lead to skin issues. I'm kind of worried since I already had the buttermilk. Is there something I can do to prevent any skin problems, or is there anything I should be on the lookout for?

Question

I'm a 22-year-old female and I've been dealing with thinning hair for the past 2 to 3 years. My scalp is becoming more visible, and just recently, I noticed my frontal hairline seems to be receding. I also happen to be obese and often use heat styling on my hair. I'm really concerned and curious to know if there's a way I can get my hair back to its former state. What can I do to recover my hair?

Question

I'm a 17-year-old guy and I've noticed that my scalp is becoming visible through my hair, which is really worrying me. Living in Ajman, UAE, I suspect the shower water might be affecting my hair because I've heard its not great. I started using oil, hoping it might help, but I'm not seeing much of an improvement. Are there any home treatments or remedies you could recommend for hair issues like this?
