Sinus: If you mean that there is a depression in the skin near the skin, and that the pit keeps getting infected, you can have the abnormality excised. Have a healthy diet, exercise, drink plenty of water, have safe sex, and get HPV vaccine. Wish you good health! Nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.
