Question 10

shaved my testacles for the first time, and now have 2 tiny dark spots on the scrotum, could this be small scabs? should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

Watch and wait: Contrary to current customs, shaving your genitals is unhygienic. You may wait to see if the wounds you inflicted on yourself are healing on their own.  If the spots are scabs, those will fall off in a few days.
For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. 
Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
