Cysts can make the area swell, feel tender, and look red. They may occur due to blocked oil glands or hair follicles. Don't touch or squeeze it. Using warm compresses helps ease swelling. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist.

Could I have contracted herpes from a recent rave?
Herpes on the lips are called cold sores. They're caused by the herpes simplex virus. This virus spreads through close contact or shared objects like cups and straws. Getting it from the rave is unlikely since the virus doesn't live long outside the body. Taking Aciclovir tablets and using the cream is a great approach! These medications help make the outbreak less severe and shorter. Don't touch or pick at the sores to prevent spreading the virus more. Visit a dermatologist or general physician for further consultation.

Why does my son have a thick red line after nap?
Your son may have a skin issue called "dermatographia," meaning, "skin writing." When pressure touches the skin, red lines appear. It's not severe and commonly disappears by itself. Perhaps he laid on something leaving a mark. If it disturbs him, or worsens, consulting a dermatologist would be wise.

Why is my hair works after waxing?
You might have ingrown hairs from waxing. Ingrown hairs grow into the skin, not out. They can make skin red, swollen, and sore. To help, wear loose clothes. Use warm washcloths on the area. Gently scrub off dead skin cells. Don't pick up ingrown hairs. It could cause infection. If it doesn't get better or gets worse, talk to a dermatologist.

Why Do I Have Large Air Blisters on Toes?
Foot blisters often happen when shoes rub against the skin. Big air blisters on your big toes can be particularly uncomfortable. To help them heal, try cushioned bandages and well-fitting shoes. Don't pop them yourself, that risks infection. Visit a dermatologist if you need to.

Why is my leg ulcer not healing fast?
The ulcer on your leg has an open wound without a new skin layer. Poor circulation or infection may cause this issue. An uncovered ulcer risks infection and slower healing. Keep the area clean by following a dermatologist's orders for ointments and bandages.

Can I Treat Syringoma with Cream or Oral?
Syringomas can form tiny bumps around eyes. They normally don't cause trouble. Certain face creams with retinoids might fix them a bit. Medicine like isotretinoin can help too. However, these don't always remove syringomas fully. For better removal, procedures like lasers or minor surgery could work instead. You can contact a dermatologist for that.
