I'm a 17-year-old guy and I'm really concerned because my left nipple is totally normal, but my right one is really big, like even bigger than some women's. I'm not sure what to do about it. Can you give me some advice?

I'm concerned about my blood sugar levels. My fasting blood sugar is 155, and my postprandial is 167, but my HbA1c is 6.4. I'm currently taking Glycomate GP 1 gm daily, but it doesn't seem to be controlling my sugar levels effectively. Can you suggest any other medications or adjustments I should consider? Also, when would be the best time for me to take them?

I'm feeling a bit worried because a few weeks ago, I started experiencing this tingling pins-and-needles sensation in my feet and hands. It seems to happen in my feet mostly when I'm sitting cross-legged. I went to my doctor, did some tests for vitamin B12, vitamin D, and thyroid, and it turned out my vitamin D was really low, at 29 nmolL. I've been taking vitamin D tablets, but the tingling is still there when I sit a certain way. Plus, my hands get super dry at night. Could all these be related to the vitamin D deficiency?
The tingling sensation in your feet and hands, especially when sitting with legs crossed, and dry hands at night, may be partially related to Vitamin D deficiency, but other factors like poor circulation, nerve compression, or peripheral neuropathy might also contribute; continue taking Vitamin D supplements and consult your doctor to rule out other underlying causes and consider additional tests or referrals to a specialist if necessary.
