I've been wondering if using Flutivate cream on my face could help with growing facial hair. Is it actually safe to apply it for that purpose, or could there be any side effects I should know about?

I'm noticing that the skin on my penis has been feeling rough lately, and I've developed quite a few Fordyce spots. They aren't painful, but it's definitely uncomfortable for me. What can I do to soften the rough penile foreskin? Any advice or suggestions would be really helpful.

Candid cream for local application is advised for 3 weeks, along with tab flucanozole 150 mg once a week for 2 weeks is advised to the patient.

I've had a naturally thick lower lip since childhood but now at 19 it seems to be getting even thicker while my upper lip stays small. Are there any natural ways to reduce the size of my lower lip without surgery

Non-surgical lip reduction options are limited. Lip exercises have minimal effect. Surgery is the most effective option for size reduction.
