I've been dealing with dry and cracked skin on my right palm for quite some time now, but it doesn't really hurt. It's just a bit concerning since my left hand seems totally fine and normal. What could be causing this difference, and should I be worried or seeing someone about this?

May be due to a variety of reasons such as excessive hand washing, exposure to harsh chemicals, or environmental factors. I recommend using a moisturizing cream containing urea and lactic acid, such as Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream, twice a day on the affected hand. Additionally, wearing gloves while doing household chores or using hand sanitizers can help protect the skin.

View allI've been dealing with genital warts for about a year now and have tried various treatments including seeing a doctor and using home remedies like garlic and ginger. I keep removing them, but they come back after a few weeks or months. Is this something Ill have to deal with permanently? Could the warts spread to other parts of my body?
Genital warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can be persistent. While there is no permanent cure for HPV, there are treatments available to manage the symptoms. One effective medication for genital warts is "Aldara cream," which contains imiquimod. You can apply a thin layer of Aldara cream on the warts before bedtime, three times a week for up to 16 weeks. This can help reduce the size and spread of the warts. It is important to note that genital warts can spread to other parts of the body through skin-to-skin contact, so it is essential to take precautions to prevent transmission. Additionally, practicing safe sex and maintaining good hygiene can help reduce the risk of spreading the virus. If you have concerns about the spread of warts on your body, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm curious about Finax 1mg Tablet for hair loss. I'm worried about the side effects like decreased libido, decreased semen volume, and impotence. Also, if you stop taking the medicine, you might lose the hair you gained. So, what's the point of taking it if you lose your hair when you stop? Does this mean you'd have to keep taking it forever if you don't want to lose hair again?
