I'm noticing these vertical brown lines on my toenails, especially on the first two toes, and I can't remember when they first showed up. I don't usually do regular pedicures, so I'm a bit concerned now. When I looked it up online, I found out it could be related to pigmentation. I also have pigmentation around my lower mouth and chin area. My skin is wheatish, and I'm 25, married, with a 19-month-old baby. Should I be worried about these toenail lines? What might be causing them, and how can I treat it?

For sensitive glans of the penis, you can try using a topical numbing cream containing Lidocaine. Apply a thin layer of numbing agent in the form of a cream or spray on the sensitive area of the glans before intercourse.
