I'm 18 and feeling worried about my nipples. They're brown and seem cracked, and I'm scared the cracks might mean something's wrong or that they could fall off. I've never been pregnant or had kids, so I don't know if this is normal. Any idea what might be going on?

You may be experiencing a condition called nipple fissures, which can be caused by various factors such as dry skin, friction, or certain skin conditions. To help with the cracked and brown appearance of your nipples, you can try using a lanolin-based nipple cream like Lansinoh Lanolin Nipple Cream. Apply a small amount after showering and before bedtime to help moisturize and protect the skin.

View allI'm really curious about how I can tell if my lipoma has completely stopped forming after I've been on homeopathic treatment. Are there specific signs I should look for, or is it something that only a doctor can confirm? I'm kinda worried because I want to make sure the treatment has actually worked and that no new growth is happening. Can you give me some guidance on what to expect or how I might notice if it's all settled down?
To confirm that your lipoma has stopped growing or forming new ones after homeopathic treatment, monitor the following: 1. Size: Measure and track the lipoma's size regularly. 2. Growth rate: Observe if the growth rate has slowed or halted. 3. New lesions: Watch for any new lipoma formations. 4. Consistency: Check if the lipoma's texture or consistency has changed. 5. Symptoms: Note any changes in symptoms like pain, tenderness, or inflammation.

I'm a 25-year-old guy, and I've noticed that around 10 or 15 of my underarm hairs on one side have turned white all of a sudden. Is this something I should be worried about? It seems really strange to me. Why did only a few hairs change color, and why on just one side? Could there be an underlying reason for this?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
