I noticed that the redness has come back on my penis foreskin after using Candid B, which helped at first. The redness is mainly at the bottom of the foreskin near the penis head, but there are no ulcers and it doesn't itch. Should I be concerned about this recurring redness, or is it normal? What should I do next?

I've noticed some brown spots and patches appearing in my armpits. This has happened before and went away on its own, but now they've come back and are starting to spread to my other armpit. I'm really worried about it. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm considering using Dr. Reddy's Minoxidil topical solution USP 2 for hair regrowth, but I'm not sure if I need to see a doctor for a prescription first. Is it safe to start using it on my own, or do I really need to check with a healthcare professional? I've read a bit about it but want to be certain about any risks or side effects I should be aware of. Would really appreciate your advice!
