I've got a couple of self-harm scars on my forearm and I'm wondering if there's any scar treatment that could help get rid of them. They've caused me a lot of trouble with people being suspicious and asking questions, and I'd really love to have them gone. What options might be available to me?

I'm really struggling with a lice issue and it's becoming overwhelming. What's the best shampoo or lotion to deal with this? I'm desperate for a solution that actually works and would love some guidance.

For treating a lice infestation, I recommend using **Nix** (Permethrin) shampoo or **Rid** (Piperonyl butoxide and Pyrethrum extract) shampoo. Follow the instructions on the packaging for proper application. Additionally, make sure to comb out the dead lice and nits from the hair using a fine-toothed comb.

I'm having a really uncomfortable skin reaction after eating mangoes. My whole body is covered in red marks, and it gets worse if I miss a dose of the medications the doctors gave me: ommacortil, patadin, levosiz, and ranitidine. Is there anything specific I should avoid eating in this situation? And is it possible to find a permanent solution to stop this?

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I've noticed some wrinkles on my penis foreskin, and it has tears all around. Whenever I try to open it, it just closes back up, plus it feels pretty dry. It all started with just one tear. What's going on, and should I be worried?
