Question

I'm curious about the long-term effects of using melanin-reducing soaps and creams. Can they make a person's skin permanently lighter? Also, what kind of side effects should one be aware of when using these products?

Question

I'm 21 and have been dealing with scabies for like 8 months now. I've tried a bunch of creams like permethrin and lindane, but nothing works anymore. The red bumps just keep coming back on my scrotum and penis after a few days of any treatment. Can you suggest something that could really fix this for good so it doesnt return again?

Question

I've been noticing something unusual after using a new towel. It left some lint on my penis, and even after drying with another towel, my skin became ashy and dry on one side. I tried using oils, but the dryness keeps coming back. Now, I've also noticed my scrotum has become dry and darker in color. What's going on here? Could the towel have caused this, or is it something else? I'm genuinely concerned and would appreciate any insight you might have.

Question

Im 35 and I've noticed I have a few grey hairs. Im really worried about this. Could my diet, especially eating junk, oily, and spicy foods, be contributing to this? What can I do to reduce or prevent more grey hair?
