What is the latter?
When someone discusses or mentions or describes 2 "things" or 2 subjects, as if for comparison, you could use the terms former or latter. The former "thing" or subject would be the first one mentioned, and the latter would be the second one.
Back to the pics, They look like candida, just like mine. It look's like you may have a little blood on the ends of the strings or in them, I've had that too, I feel better. Previously I've asked if anyone has seen that, but no one has responded. I have no pain so I would guess the areas wherever that came from have been healing!
