Question

I've noticed that my fingernails used to have lunula, but now it seems like only my thumbs still have them, and even those are shrinking. I've heard that lunula is a sign of good health. What can I do to get them back? I'm a bit worried about what this means for my health.

Question

I'm dealing with these really itchy rashes on my thighs and groin area, but thankfully my penis isn't affected. It's really uncomfortable because it chafes, bleeds, and itches so badly that I'm scratching constantly, both day and night. I can't even sleep since I can't resist the urge to scratch. What's worrying me is that it's starting to spread to my buttocks too. Could you help me figure out what's going on and what I can do about it?

I'm a 32-year-old woman trying to find a good anti-aging night cream. Could you give me some recommendations?
