I'm noticing these kind of spots on my foreskin and glans area, and I'm a bit worried. They don't itch or bother me, but I can't help but wonder if they're something serious. I've seen a dermatologist who mentioned they might be fordyce spots. Could these spots appear on the glans as well? Just trying to figure out if it's normal or if I should be more concerned.

My husband has been dealing with some really itchy, red bumps on his inner thighs for about 34 weeks now. He's tried using OTC creams like Monosol GM, but they just keep coming back and are starting to spread to nearby areas. It's super itchy and the red rashes are not going away. Im not sure what to do next, do you have any suggestions?

I'm really curious about hair fibres and if they can damage my hair. Is there a risk of them causing more hair loss?

Hair fibers, when used properly, are generally safe and don't cause significant damage or hair loss; however, excessive use, improper application, or using low-quality fibers can lead to tangling, breakage, or exacerbate existing hair loss conditions, such as alopecia or thinning hair.
