I'm really worried about my sister. She's got these small warts on her neck and face, and they seem to be spreading to her chest and armpits. Sometimes they itch, but not always. She's tried using pure turmeric mixed with neem and potato juice, but nothing's really worked. Now she's been using Dettol and says that the burning feeling she had at first isn't there anymore. Do you think it's okay for her to keep using Dettol to get rid of the warts? If you have any other home remedy ideas, that would be great because she's not into the idea of laser treatment and it's really causing her some pain. Any advice?

I'm seeing these black lines on both sides of my index fingernail and I just noticed them two days ago. Its worrying me a bit. I've been taking Amlopres AT 25 mg for my blood pressure for the past 6 years. Could this medication be related to what's happening with my nail? Or is there something else I should be concerned about?

The black lines on your nails could be due to a condition called splinter hemorrhages, which are tiny areas of bleeding under the nails. In your case, it may be related to the long-term use of Amlopres At (Amlodipine) for your blood pressure. I recommend consulting with a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and discuss appropriate treatment options. In the meantime, you can continue taking your Amlopres At as prescribed.

I've used sebifin plus before to treat a fungal skin infection around my penis, and it worked well. But now, the infection's back, and I think it's because I sweat a lot when I exercise. I treated it again with sebifin and it cleared up, but now I'm worried about exercising and the infection coming back again. What should I do?
