👀 Keeping an eye on your skin can help you spot changes early.

✅ Here are the ABCDEs to watch for during your mole check:

A – Asymmetry
One half of the mole doesn’t match the other.
B – Borders
Look for edges that are irregular, jagged, or blurred.
C – Color
Multiple colors or shades (brown, black, red, white, or blue) can be a red flag.
D – Diameter
Moles larger than a pencil eraser (about 6mm) should be watched more closely.
E – Evolving
The mole is changing in size, shape, color, or elevation, or has new symptoms like itching or bleeding

🩺 “The ABCDEs are a simple way to catch early changes in your moles,” says Kenne Ogunmakin, MD, dermatologist at Kelsey-Seybold. “If something looks different, it’s always worth getting checked.”

☀️ Protect your skin. Know the signs. Stay sun-safe this season.

📲 Virtual visits are making men’s health easier than ever - quick, confidential care without the waiting room or scheduling hassle. During a Virtual Visit, your provider can review symptoms, order labs, adjust treatment, and help manage long‑term health from wherever you are.

A vasectomy is one of the quickest and most reliable forms of long‑term birth control. The procedure is an office-based short procedure — usually 10–20 minutes — and most patients are back to normal within a couple of days.

🩺 “Patients are often amazed at how quick the vasectomy is,” says Dr. Huang. After the procedure, take it easy for the first couple of days, and use backup contraception until a follow‑up semen analysis confirms success. A small procedure can make a big impact when you have the right information and care.

Stress doesn’t just mess with your mood - your gut feels it too.

When life gets intense, your digestive system often gets the memo first. Stress hormones like cortisol can slow everything down, ramp up stomach acid, and throw off the balance of your gut bacteria.

Translation? Bloating, nausea, constipation, or flare‑ups of conditions you already deal with.

🩺 “When patients realize how tightly stress and digestion are connected, it’s a lightbulb moment. Managing stress can make a huge difference,” says David Nguyen, DO, Family Medicine, Kelsey-Seybold Clinic - Tanglewood.

✅ Here are a few easy ways to calm your gut when life gets chaotic:
▫️Take a quick walk or do a minute of deep breathing after meals
▫️Go easy on caffeine and heavy, high‑fat foods when you’re stressed
▫️Pay attention to what sets off symptoms - food triggers and emotional ones

Your gut listens to your stress levels - the more you dial down the pressure, the better your digestion plays along.

📲 And if your symptoms don't resolve as stressors are relieved, or if the symptoms are affecting your daily life, schedule an appointment with your primary care provider: https://www.kelsey-seybold.com/make-an-appointment

Stress affects your whole body, not just your mood. And for many people, the digestive system feels the impact first.
