Could a Black Dot on Metal Wound Indicate Tetanus?

My little brother got a wound from metal the wound was so minor that it formed new skin in 2 days there was a black dot on the wound it was from the beginning is it a sign to tetanus infection

1 Answer

Answered on 12th Dec '24

The black dot mentioned may be debris or a tiny piece of metal that would not essentially suggest an infection. Symptoms of infection may involve more severe redness, swelling, or pus. Typically, tetanus happens in wounds that are deeper, mainly due to rusty metal, though he may have already been immunized. It is best to consult a dermatologist.

I want to know the best skincare for a 27 year old lady with dry skin type. I am ready to use sunscreen, oil, peptides, supplements etc. I have been noticing fine lines around my eyes and blackheads near nose.

Female | 27

For fine lines around eyes: We first need to ascertain whether it is a static or a dynamic wrinkle. For static wrinkle, retinol-based creams or serums and polyhydroxy acids creams will do the job. And for Dynamic wrinkle, the only treatment option is Botulinum Toxin(BOTOX) Injections. Black heads, above creams will take care of the problem, if not then lasers might be required.

Hey doctor im sami and I'm feeling discomfort to touch my penis gland corona there is a sharp pain no any visble rashes and redness and i have fungal infection on jock and stomach near by private area

Male | 27

The feeling of unease, and the excruciating pain in the glans of your penis, however, might be attributed to this too. Moreover, fungi drive them to the irritation and pain path. Beware of the cleanliness of the area and drying, wear only airy clothes, and use the antifungal creams prescribed by doctor as these ways are also extremely effective. It is essential to cure it to be healthy and happy again!

I have a thin hair it cause more hair loss what I do

Female | 21

It is a common thing to be worried about baldness. Minimum amounts of hair may be a symptom of it. The main causes are genetic and some health problems. Symptoms include more hair left on brushes or in the shower to the extent of brushing. Along with these, eat a balanced diet, treat your hair with care, and stress management to help. Also, treatments such as minoxidil can be beneficial.

Few small bumps on penis

Male | 29

It can be due to a range of conditions such as Fordyce spots, pimples, or genital warts. It is advisable to visit a dermatologist or a urologist for basic check-op to make sure there is no serious condition. Do not self-diagnose or treat yourself at home, because it can only result in your aggravation of the situation.
