I've noticed a small white bump on my upper lip that popped up about 23 days ago. It's not painful, but it's kinda near the center of my lips. Should I be worried that this might be something serious?

I'm really concerned about my wife's handsthey're turning purple, especially on the knuckles. They look like they're dirty, but there's actually no dirt on them. She mentioned that they feel really dry, probably because of the cold winter air. Is this just dry skin, or could it be something more serious?

The purple discoloration on your wife's knuckles, despite appearing clean, could be due to Raynaud's phenomenon, a condition causing blood vessel constriction in response to cold temperatures, or it might be a sign of poor circulation, dry skin, or a nutritional deficiency; to rule out any underlying conditions, consult a dermatologist

I've been using Klosh F and Tugain 10 along with Renocia solution, plus Fluence hair. My doctor said it's fine, and I've been on them for about two months. Do these treatments really help with androgenic alopecia? I don't have dandruff, so I'm just wondering if I'm on the right track here.
