I've got a raised mole on my upper lip and really want it gone, but I'm worried about scarring. A couple of doctors mentioned that removing it with a laser might leave a scar the size of the mole, and I'm trying to avoid that. Is there any way to get it off with little to no scarring? I'm sharing a picture with this. Any advice would be appreciated.

One option to consider is a surgical excision where the mole is cut out with a scalpel. This method can minimize scarring if done carefully by a skilled dermatologist or plastic surgeon. Another option is cryotherapy, where the mole is frozen off using liquid nitrogen. This method may also result in minimal scarring. I recommend consulting with a dermatologist to discuss these options and determine the best course of action for your specific case.

View allI've been struggling with this itching that turned into rashes, especially on my inner thighs and under my breast, for over a year now. It seems like ringworm because it itches so badly. Even after seeing a doctor and completing the treatment, the issue just keeps coming back. What could be causing this persistent problem and what should I do to finally get rid of it?

I've been struggling with jock itch for a really long time now and I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you give me some advice or suggest a solution? It's really frustrating and I'd love some guidance to finally get rid of it.
Jock itch, also known as tinea cruris, is a fungal infection that affects the skin in the groin area. The most effective treatment for jock itch is an antifungal cream. You can use over-the-counter antifungal creams such as Lotrimin Ultra or Lamisil AT. Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for at least 2 weeks. It's also important to keep the affected area clean and dry. If the jock itch does not improve after using the antifungal cream, you may need to see a doctor for further evaluation and prescription-strength antifungal medication.

I'm 20 years old and have been masturbating daily for the past four years. Is it healthy to do this every day? I've heard that ejaculating sperm daily might affect future fertility and that it could be risky for married life. My girlfriend is also concerned and insists I quit the habit urgently. Is there any truth to these worries, especially about affecting my ability to ovulate, even though I know ovulation is related to females? I'm anxious about whether this will complicate things when I'm married. Looking for some guidance.
yes you can have it
