Should I worry about sore open bump on breast?

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?

Answered on 12th Sept '24

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.

How to remove blade cut mark

Male | 20

To avoid blade cut marks, a new wound should be kept clean and properly covered to minimize scars. When healed, apply scar treatment cream or silicon gel sheets regularly to reduce the appearance of scars. Do not expose the scar to sunlight because the UV rays darken it. For more severe or prominent scars it is necessary to refer them to the dermatologist for professional treatments such as laser therapy and microdermabrasion. For the situations with deep scarring, sometimes a cosmetic revisional surgery might be an option but it is always best to seek advice from a dermatologist on individual basis.

Male | 22

Herpe­s is a common virus. It causes itchy, painful sores. The­se blisters often appe­ar around your mouth or private parts. You can get it through close contact. He­rpes may seem bad, but doctors can give­ you antiviral medicine. Using protection during se­x helps prevent spre­ading it too. Good hygiene habits are also ke­y.

I have skin tags on my perineum

Female | 27

Skin tags near the­ perineum are ge­nerally innocuous. They rese­mble small protrusions of skin. Friction and rubbing of the skin causes the­ir formation. At times, itchiness or blee­ding may occur if irritated. If they cause discomfort, a doctor can re­adily remove them safe­ly. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness of the­ area can prevent furthe­r development.

Female | 23

It is advisable to take the help of a dermatologist who deals with skin conditions and works to provide an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment. Do not use over-the-counter drugs, or self-medicate. They may worsen the condition.

Does wound sting if you put a NaCL?

Female | 18

If you put salt (NaCl) on a cut it may hurt a bit. The reason for this is that salt is able to kill germs. Therefore if you rub salt in a wound it will only be painful temporarily. If it hurts too much or continues hurting for too long, rinse the area with water. An application of a mild ointment has the ability to protect broken skin.
