Question

I've been really anxious since my circumcision surgery 44 days ago because the stitches are still there. How much longer do these typically take to dissolve? Also, I'm curious when the sensitivity might start to decrease. Is there anything I should be doing in the meantime?

No need to worry they dissolve in 120-180 days depending upon the type of material used, sensitivity will become less with time.

Question

I'm dealing with psoriasis for the past two years, and it just doesn't seem to get better. I've tried different treatments, but nothing seems to work. I'm also losing a lot of hair, and my scalp has red patches. It's even affecting my nails now. Does it ever fully go away, or will I always have to manage it? Should I be watchful about my diet? What precautions should I be taking in my daily life to help manage these symptoms?

Question

I'm 16 and I've noticed my lips have become really dark, like almost black. I don't smoke or anything. They used to be a nice rosy color when I was a kid, and I'm not sure how or when they changed. It's kind of worrying now because I think it looks unhealthy. How can I get my lips back to their rosy shade?
