Re: skin problems
Thank you for posting this! It's really helpful. One of the clubs I am attending in school actually did an introduction to skincare for males specifically. However, the suggested treatment is not as holistic as yours. I really like how you included diet and exercise, as they do play an important role in skin condition and overall bodily health. Looking forward for more of your post 🤗

Viral load is the amount of HIV in the blood of a patient who has HIV. Viral load is highest during the acute phase of HIV. Taking HIV medicines can...
