I've noticed the skin around my fingernails has turned black and there's also some darkness on my thumbnails. I'm really worried about it and I'm not sure how to make them lighter. What do you suggest I do?

The skin around your nails and the black discoloration on your thumb nails could be due to a fungal infection or trauma. I recommend using an antifungal cream for the skin around your nails and applying a topical antifungal solution on your thumb nails. Keep your hands clean and dry, and avoid any further trauma to the nails. If the condition persists, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been masturbating daily since I was 15, and I've noticed something odd that's got me a bit worried. When I masturbate, my penis tends to soften within about 10 seconds without me even touching it. The thing is, I can easily achieve a full erection, and I also get morning erections every two or three days. I haven't had intercourse in 12 years, so I'm not really sure how things would go when I'm with a partner. Could this be something I should be concerned about?
This could be a sign of erectile dysfunction. It is important to consult with a doctor before starting any medication to ensure it is safe for you.

I'm really worried about a fungal infection I've had for the past year. I've tried medications from different doctors, but it's just spreading all over my body, causing itching and irritation. It's tough to get any mental relief from this infection. Can you help me find a permanent solution? I'm looking for a complete cure, not just a temporary fix. It's been going on for so long, and it's really affecting my life. Also, my wife is dealing with the same issue and she's pregnant. Could this infection impact our newborn? If so, what precautions should we take to protect the baby? I've already consulted 4 doctors and tried everything from English medicine to homeopathy, but nothing is working. We desperately need the best advice and treatment for fungal infections. Can you guide us on what to do next?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment. Follow the prescribed antifungal regimen, including oral and topical treatments. Ensure proper hygiene, especially in moist areas prone to infection. Take steps to improve immunity by maintaining a healthy diet and managing stress.

I've got these really small blade cut marks on my leg. They're not super noticeable, but I can't stop thinking about getting rid of them for good. Any ideas on how I can permanently remove them?
