I'm supposed to use candid LA ointment on my penis, but the tube I have doesnt mention LA, nor does it say Candid B. Are these two different creams? Also, what's the right way to apply it? Should I retract the foreskin, apply the cream, and then put the foreskin back, or apply the cream, wash it off, and then restore the foreskin?

No, it's not recommended to consume food infected by rodents, even after cooking. Rodents can contaminate food with:

Bacteria (Salmonella, E. coli, Leptospira)

Viruses (Hantavirus, Lymphocytic choriomeningitis)

Parasites (tapeworms, fleas)

Urine and feces Cooking Does Not Guarantee Safety:_

Heat may not kill all bacteria and viruses.

Toxins produced by bacteria can remain active.

Contamination can occur through packaging damage.

I've been using Rejuglow vitamin C serum for the last couple of months and it gave me such a nice glow, but just recently, like in the past week, my skin seems to be getting darker. Any idea what might be causing this change?
