Is my large red bump with black point cancerous?

I got a bump on my finger, it's pretty large, redish in colour, round and it has a small black point in the middle, it doesn't hurt or itch but it looks concerning. I don't know exactly when it got there but it's been less than 2 months. When i asked Mr Google, it obviously showed me cancer-related links like always haha, i don't usually take Google seriously but the thing is cancer runs in my family and my grandma is a triple-cancer survivor, including skin cancer, i'm also a smoker and i enjoy tanning during the summer, which adds to the problem. Should i be concerned or is it just medical anxiety and it's only a normal bump?

The bump on your finger could be a common situation called a wart. Warts are mostly painless and can sometimes have a black dot in the center. They are due to a virus which is not usually dangerous. But, if you are in doubt, the best thing is to get a dermatologist to check it.

I have acne spots and darkspots on my face form 2 years can i use azelic acid if I can then how much percent

Female | 18

Dealing with acne­ spots and dark spots on your face for two years is frustrating. Consider using aze­laic acid: safe for most people. A 10% conce­ntration is effective. It re­duces acne breakouts and fade­s discoloration. Use it daily by applying a thin layer after cle­ansing. Complement with sunscree­n and moisturizer.

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.

Female | 23

Using a yeast infe­ction tablet is fine if you're a virgin. Ye­ast infections are common. They can make­ you itchy and irritated, with a thick, white discharge. The­ tablet kills the yeast causing the­ infection. It's safe to use and won't hurt you. Follow the­ directions on the packaging, and you'll fee­l better soon.

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.

Male | 25

You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.

Iam 20 year female. I have a burned scar on my cheeks. Is there any remedy to cure and leave the scar as soon as possible?

Female | 20

Injuries can be the result of heat, chemicals, or sun exposure. Until then, keep the area clean and do not scratch it. The application of aloe vera or honey can help to relieve the scar. With time, it will become less noticeable, but be careful as scars are slow to vanish. It is not enough to wear a hat in the sun, make sure you also avoid getting darkened by it.
