Could red dots on my arm indicate 2nd degree burns?

I am almost 14,I burned myself with hot oil,now there are red dots on my arm.maybe 2nd degree burns

The spots on your arm that turn red indicate inflammation caused by the hot oil and can be a sign of a burn. Second-degree burns are usually characterized by red skin, swelling, and blistering. It’s best to start off doing this by cooling the area down with lukewarm water for a good 10-15 minutes then wash it gently with a mild soap. Use a clean dressing to protect the skin. Be sure to watch for a rise in redness or the appearance of pus, which are indicators of infection. If you are enduring acute pain or the symptoms worsen, then be sure to visit a dermatologist for comprehensive care and treatment.

My daughter is 14 years old and was having a corn on her toe. We initially left it and did nothing , later we got a corn tape and changed it every 3-4 days within 2 weeks. Now the area has become white so we have not put any corn tape and left it open.

Female | 14

Corns, which are caused by the skin undergoing pressure or friction continuously, are the result of this. The white area may be a sign of skin healing. Try not to use the corn tape for the time being. Keep the area clean and dry. Wearing shoes that are a lot more comfortable should help to ease the pressure. If it doesn't improve, visit a foot specialist for further advice.

I am have white discharge from my penis and itchy anus

Male | 25

You might have a yeast infection. This can bring about a white discharge from your penis and an itchy anus. Yeast infections can occur when there is a moist and warm environment, such as the groin area. One of the best solutions to maintaining a healthy area is staying dry, wearing only clean underwear, and not wearing tight clothes. Antifungal creams which are sold without a prescription can be used.

Hard spot rashes on male sex organ and pubic area

Male | 20

It is necessary to see a dermatologist for the rashes. These rashes could be an indication that you have sexually transmitted infections like genital warts or herpes. Do not self-diagnosing or treating at home because it could aggravate the condition.

Hello! I'd like to consult on a medication called Doxycycline I took 2 doses wrongly by accident (2 pills 2 times a day instead of 1 pill 2 times a day) Should I wait 24 hours and take the next dose in the morning? or should I take my next dose now? also, could I check the effectiveness of doxycycline? (I have taken doxycycline before and I'm concerned it might not be effective) Thank you!

Male | 24

It's important to use medicines the right way if you want them to work well. Too much doxycycline might give you a stomach ache, make you feel sick, or throw up. If you have taken 2 doses at once, just skip that particular time and take your next dose when it is due. Even after this drug may still be effective but not in the correct manner as before; so always consult with your doctor if doubtful about its efficacy.

Can i supplement fish oil being a vegetarian without any issues

Male | 18

As a vegetarian, if you want to include Omega-3 fatty acids in your diet, you should not use fish oil. What is in fish oil mainly comes from fish, and many people may find this unappealing. Instead, consider using flaxseed oil or algae oil which are obtained from plants. The two oils have similar benefits as fish oil but do not contradict with the vegetarian lifestyle.
