I've noticed I have a lot of thin vertical lines on my nails, and there's always one or two thick, noticeable ones on each fingernail. Its kind of worrying me because I have had tests done, like thyroid, x-ray, sugar, blood and urine tests, and everything has come back normal. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?

I've got this pretty big lump, even bigger than a quarter, right in my butt crack, about three inches from my anus. I think it might have pus in it. I've had smaller lumps like this before, but they've never been this big or painful. What could be going on, and should I be worried about it?

I have a tiny skin tag near my eyes, and it's really bothering me because it's giving me a bit of an inferiority complex. It upsets me every time I see it. I'm really curious if there's a way to remove it, especially since it's so small and in such a sensitive spot.
