My ear lobe hole has stretched out and is too big now. Is there any way to shrink it back to normal size without surgery or invasive treatments? I'm worried about how it looks and want a natural fix if possible. What options do I have?

While it's difficult to shrink a stretched ear lobe hole completely without surgery, there are a few non-surgical options that can help improve its appearance. These include earlobe support patches, dermal filler injections, and potentially, slowly downsizing your gauge size

I've been dealing with some itching around my scrotum and penis area, and a urologist said its mild folliculitis baaltod. He suggested using a moisturizer and prescribed me Zocef 500, which I took for three days, then repeated for another three. I've also been applying Fourderm. It's been three weeks now, and while the itching is better, it's not completely gone. What should I do next?

Can I use Candid B cream for my 4-and-a-half-year-old daughter's small ringworm on her back and face? Is it safe, or should I try using fusidic cream instead? I'm just worried and want to make sure it's okay.

Don't use Candid B cream or Fusidic cream without consulting a pediatrician. For ringworm, a pediatrician may recommend antifungal creams like clotrimazole or miconazole. Consult a pediatrician to confirm the diagnosis and determine the best treatment option for your child.
