Your friend might be the one with gynecomastia, which means swollen breast tissues in boys or men. It can be possible if the hormones are not in a proper balance during puberty. Usually, gynecomastia goes by itself, but sometimes, if it causes problems, it can be treated. Your friend should speak with a dermatologist to get more details and see if any treatment is necessary.

Black vertical line on the right thumb of 2 yrs old boy. Line is growing as nail grows. It started in sept 2020 and by Feb line covered full nail. No nail trauma or any history of such line in family.

Male | 2

It is possible that the black vertical line on the boy's thumb nail is a result of a melanonychia striata, which is a linear nail melanin pigmentation. It is relatively common in children and is generally harmless. However, it is important to have it evaluated by a doctor, especially if it is growing, to rule out any underlying medical conditions.

Female | 21

It seems as if you may be suffering from severe hair loss. It may as well have been caused by many factors like stress, hormonal changes or a disease. I would suggest visiting a dermatologist, who could examine your scalp and diagnose the reason for hair loss. They can then develop a customized treatment plan for you

idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis treatment can be done

Male | 37

Little white spots can appear on the skin, mainly on the arms and legs, due to fewer pigment cells caused by aging and sun exposure. There's no treatment, but you can prevent it from worsening by using sunscreen and avoiding too much sun.
