Could a Burning Sensation and Bump Near Anus Indicate Boil or Pimple?

I am a 18 year old male, 56kg and a filipino. Three days ago, I ate a spicy food and a day after that I felt a burning sensation when doing my business in the toilet. A day after that I felt a bump near my anus and I'm thinking if its a boil or a pimple. I know that having a boil is pretty hard so I'm scared of what it is and i dont know what to do to stop it from getting worse

You may have something referred to as a perianal abscess. When bacteria infect a tiny gland around the anus, this can cause a painful lump. Soaking in warm water may help relieve discomfort. Don’t squeeze or pop it—try to keep the area clean instead. If it becomes worse or doesn’t get better, you should go see your doctor for more help.

Small Nodule on eyebrow

Male | 3 month

A tiny bump near your eyebrow is probably a cyst or a skin tag, which are common and not usually a concern. They can form from a clogged oil gland or a blocked hair follicle. If it’s not bothering you, it’s okay to leave it alone. However, if it grows bigger, changes color, or starts hurting, it’s best to have it checked out.

I am 15 year old female and my lower face is darker than my upper face. It's not pigmentation or pimple patches. It's totally darker than my upper face. It starts from my chubby chicks to jawline

Female | 15

You might have a medical condition named acanthosis nigricans. It can sometimes cause the lower face to be darker than the rest. It's not dangerous but could be a sign of something more serious, like insulin resistance, that is happening inside your body. You can fix this by eating cleaner, being active, and maintaining skin health. Furthermore, consume a lot of water.

Wound on my penis, what drug can I use?

Male | 35

For any injury in that area, it's crucial to observe symptoms like pain, swelling, or discharge. Common causes include friction, infections, or skin conditions. While over-the-counter topical treatments may help, consulting a dermatologist is essential for accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. They can recommend specific medications tailored to your situation and ensure there are no underlying issues. Remember, seeking prompt care is the best way to ensure a full recovery.

Chikan pox deep small circle on mouth in central Possible to remove this problem

Male | 31

A canker sore­ might trouble your mouth. They are small, round, and painful sore­s. Stress, spicy foods, or biting your cheek can cause­ them. Try over-the-counte­r rinses or gels to ease­ pain and speed healing. Soft foods are­ better; avoid spicy or acidic ones. Give­ it time - around one or two wee­ks - and it should disappear on its own.

Can you suggest to me the best hair transplant technique? And after my hair transplant surgery will I have to take off from my work for a few days??

Male | 32

The choice of the best hair transplant technique depends on various factors, including your hair loss pattern, donor hair availability, and your preferences. Two common methods are Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). FUT involves removing a strip of the scalp for grafts, leaving a linear scar, while FUE involves individually extracting follicles, leaving minimal scarring. Regarding recovery, it's advisable to take a few days off work after the surgery. The initial recovery period typically involves some swelling, redness, and scabbing around the transplant area.
