I'm really confused about a treatment suggestion I got. My husband's doctor recommended Propysalic nf6 ointment for his hair loss on his chin, and for me, he recommended a different ointment that starts with an "O" and has a green color. Can anyone help me figure out what that might be? I'm worried and just want to make sure I'm using the right thing.

I'm noticing that my lower lip is usually pink, or sometimes even red, but my upper lip is much darker and doesn't match the lower one at all. It's kinda annoying, and I'm wondering what might be causing this difference. Can you suggest what I could do about it?

To help lighten the color of your upper lip, you can try using a lip lightening cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid. Apply a thin layer of the cream on your upper lip once or twice a day. Additionally, using a lip balm with SPF can help protect your lips from further darkening due to sun exposure.

I've been noticing these red spots on my tongue for almost 10 months now. At first, there weren't many, so I kind of ignored it, thinking it would heal on its own. But now, it's spread all over my tongue, and I'm getting really worried. Could you please help me figure this out and what I should do next?
