Love Bite on Breast and Back: Normal or Concern?

Hi, I am a girl of 19 years old. My boyfriend has given me a love bite on my breast and on back. I wanted to ask if this is normal? As I am feeling a bit sick and feverish. I want to know if this is okay to feel such way? For more information, earlier when i got a love bite, it was on neck and i faced neck infection. I had neck swelling. It got okay after medications though. But I want to know if there are chances for swelling this time too? Something like this? Or will it be okay with time and nothing will happen? Please clear. Thanks

A love bite­ can cause fever and sickne­ss, it's normal. Your boyfriend's bite on the breast and back may have­ let bacteria ente­r broken skin. This causes infection - swe­lling and tenderness. Cle­an the area, use warm compre­ss, take pain meds if nee­ded. But if pus appears or symptoms worsen, ge­t medical help right away.

I found a bump on the side of my left breast. When I looked it was an open sore. This is not the first one to appear - but this one is worse, as it is sore to touch. I am planning on seeing a doctor this week. But what do I do?

Female | 19

Bumps and open sores can be caused by various conditions, from skin infections and cysts to breast cancer. I'm glad you have a doctor's appointment this week. In the meantime, keep the area clean and dry, avoid squeezing or picking at it, and wear loose-fitting clothes. Early detection and treatment save lives, so don’t miss your appointment.

I am 18 years old and I have dark circle under in my eyes

Male | 18

The dark circles under your eyes can be annoying. The reasons might be lack of sleep, stress, or even allergies. However, rubbing your eyes a lot can also be the reason. Try sleep management, stress management, and not rubbing your eyes for a while. You can use cold compresses or eye cream as well.

Hii iam girl of 25 yr age suffering acne from 11 yrs from 3 yr suffering from cystic acne Iam planning to take Accutane for 6 months I want advice from dr should I take it or not my weight is 45

Female | 25

You should consult with a dermatologist regarding Accutane for cystic acne. Given your prolonged struggle with acne and its severity, Accutane may be a viable option. However, it's crucial to consider potential side effects and weigh them against the benefits. Your dermatologist can provide personalized guidance based on your medical history and current health status.

You probably deve­loped athlete's foot. This fungal infe­ction grows between toe­s, warm and moist spots. Peeling skin signifies it. Cuts are­ another symptom. To heal it, kee­p your feet dry, use cle­an socks daily, and apply antifungal cream. Clearing it take­s time. Be patient. Stick with the­ treatment regime­n.

Male | 27

Hair loss can occur due to several reasons like stress, bad diet, or genetic factors. The signs of it are thinning hair or bald patches. To help your hair grow back, try eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, reduce stress, and use gentle hair care products. It can be a slow process, but hair may recover with careful treatment and perseverance!

The red and circular patches that have spread all over your body might be ringworm. This is a fungal infection that requires specific antifungal drugs like Terbinafine or Clotrimazole in many cases. The affected areas should be kept tidy and dry; loose clothes may also be worn.

Male | 18

It is crucial if you have a rash on your penis to consult a dermatologist or a doctor who specializes in the urinary tract as soon as possible. It might turn out to be an ingrown hair but you might be prone to a sexually transmitted disease.
