I'm dealing with a situation where I had corns on my toes because of my footwear, and I used salactin paint to try and fix it. While the corns have settled down a bit, I accidentally put some of the salactin on my normal skin, and now it's more damaged than the corns were. I've been trying to rub off the affected skin but haven't had any luck, and it's been almost a month now. What should I do?

I'm really struggling with growing my beard and moustache, and it's starting to worry me a bit. Could you give me some advice on what might help them grow in better? I'm just looking for something simple that could make a difference.

If you are looking to promote beard and mustache growth, you can consider using minoxidil solution 5%. Apply 1ml of minoxidil solution twice daily directly on the affected areas of the face. It may take several weeks to months to see visible results, so consistency is key. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet rich in vitamins and minerals can also support hair growth.
