Rashes that prescription meds aren’t helping, and it’s heavy that it’s hurting my legs when I run or walk a distance. Is it possible to have a panni with so much fat left? My weight doesn’t bother me right now - just that lower belly. But it is a nuisance and I’m tired of having to apply prescription powders and creams that don’t work.
