I'm currently taking Evion 400 orally every day and I'm wondering if it's safe to continue this for three months or if there's a recommended duration. Should I maybe take it for 21 days, pause for 10 days, and then start another 21-day cycle? I'm looking for some guidance on this.

I've had this sore for about three months now and it's not healing. It started as just a pimple between my butt cheeks, close to the anus, and now it won't dry up. Every time I take a bath or go to the bathroom, it just seems to stay unhealed. I've tried using a band-aid, but it's hard to apply in that area, and I've been putting neosporin gel and powder on it, but it hasn't improved. It's not a big wound, just about a 3mm radius, but it's really bothering me. Do you have any advice on what I can do to finally heal it?

Could be a pilonidal sinus which needs to be evaluated. consult general surgeon

I've noticed a discolored spot on my lower lip where my teeth usually bite it. Do you think this could be vitiligo, or is it just because of the biting? I'm a bit worried and not sure what to make of it.
