I'm really worried about my mom. She's had some Harpic on her right hand for about 4 days now, and I'm not sure what medicine or ointment she should be using. Could you please help me out with this?

I've been dealing with some dark patches on my inner thighs from a previous fungal infection. The infection itself seems to have cleared up, but these patches haven't faded. I'm a bit worried about why they're still there and if they'll eventually go away on their own. Should I be doing something to help them fade, or do you think this is just part of the healing process? I'm really just looking for some guidance on what to do next.

I'm really concerned about my face looking thin and elongated even though I'm gaining weight on my body. It kind of makes me look older, and Id really love to have chubby cheeks that make my face look healthier and fuller. Could you give me some advice on what kind of diet I should be following to achieve this? And would taking protein supplements like Protex help with making my face look healthier?
