Question

Can white patches on the stomach heal faster if they get proper air exposure or do they need surgery for permanent removal? I'm worried because mine aren't getting enough air and healing seems slow. Does surgery actually get rid of them for good?

White patches on the stomach can be caused by various factors, and proper air exposure may help some types heal faster, but it's not a guaranteed solution for all cases. While surgery can be an option for conditions like vitiligo, it's not a guaranteed permanent removal and may require further treatment,

Question

I'm dealing with this really annoying itching that's been going on since May. At first, it was just itching, but then the spots turned into these reddish round patches. I thought it might be something like ringworm, so I got some ring out ointment from the store, but the itching came back. Sometimes, it gets so bad that it even bleeds a bit. I've been using coconut oil and bathing with Dettol twice a day, but it's not helping much. It's really getting on my nerves. Any idea what could be causing this or how to make it stop?

Question

I've been using Mintop 10 for about a year and a half now on my dermatologist's advice, and it was working well for me. But even a short break from it seems to lead to hair loss again. My doctor recently prescribed Morr F 10 instead, but the user booklet mentions a lot of side effects stuff like sexual and cardiac issues. I'm kind of worried. Should I stick with the Morr F 10 or go back to using Mintop 10? What do you think would be best for me?

Question

I've been trying out this NoFap challenge, where guys basically stop watching porn and don't masturbate. I've noticed some great benefits but I'm curious if there are any side effects from not masturbating or ejaculating for a long time. Should I be worried about anything?
