I'm a little puzzled about how to take Limcee, the vitamin C chewable my dermatologist suggested. Should I be chewing it or is it better if I suck on it? What's the best way to actually get the most benefit from it?

For Limcee, a vitamin C chewable tablet, chewing it is recommended over sucking, as chewing helps to break down the tablet and release the vitamin C, allowing for better absorption in the digestive system, whereas sucking may lead to swallowing the tablet whole, potentially reducing its effectiveness.

I've been getting these reddish spots on the head of my penis and under the foreskin for the last couple of months. They're not really itchy, but they do feel uncomfortable. I've tried cleaning with lukewarm water and Savlon, and even used Quadriderm RF cream, but nothing seems to help. What could this be, and can you suggest some medication or treatment that might work better?
