As you get older, you tend to lose some of the facial fat. This loss makes your face appear thinner and bonier. Medical conditions such as cancer, anorexia nervosa, bullimia nervosa, celiac disease, crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and depression may cause unintentional weight loss and skinny face.

I'm really concerned because I was just scratching my balls and out of nowhere I felt this sharp pain. When I checked, I noticed that the skin on my left testicle looked really dry and it seemed like it was cracking or cutting up. This isn't the first time it's happened either, and I just can't figure out why this keeps coming back. Could you help me understand what's going on?

That could be fungal infection which needs both oral and topical antifungal medications and personal hygiene is more important for such condition.

I'm 20 years old and have been masturbating daily for the past four years. Is it healthy to do this every day? I've heard that ejaculating sperm daily might affect future fertility and that it could be risky for married life. My girlfriend is also concerned and insists I quit the habit urgently. Is there any truth to these worries, especially about affecting my ability to ovulate, even though I know ovulation is related to females? I'm anxious about whether this will complicate things when I'm married. Looking for some guidance.

yes you can have it
