Why isn't my foot wound healing after injury?
I got hurt from a plastic chair and a small piece of my skin came off near my foot..It started bleeding but i didn't notice ..when i saw the wound the blood was already dried up so i cleaned it with water and didn't apply anything on it.. It's been 5 days since the injury and the wound is not healing..i applied some antiseptic cream on it later..it just hurts around that area and some kind of transparent liquid comes out occasionally.. what to do

Answered on 5th Sept '24
The transparent liquid you see coming out is likely pus, a sign of infection. Try cleaning the wound daily with mild soap and warm water, then apply an antibiotic ointment. Keep it covered with a bandage to protect it. If it doesn't improve in a couple of days or if you notice increasing redness, swelling, or warmth around the wound, it's best to seek medical help.

I am 19 year old I am suffering from scars and acne since last 4 years so how can I make my skin clear and beautiful
Male | 19
Dealing with scars and acne can be challenging, especially at your age. Both are often caused by hormonal changes, excess oil production, or bacteria. To improve your skin, consider a gentle skincare routine including a mild cleanser, non-comedogenic moisturizer, and targeted treatments like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. Regular exfoliation can also help. It’s important to avoid picking at blemishes to prevent further scarring. Maintaining a balanced diet and staying hydrated can positively impact your skin. Most importantly, I recommend consulting a dermatologist who can provide personalized advice and potential treatments.

Treatment for syringoma either cream or oral
Female | 32
Syringomas can form tiny bumps around eyes. They normally don't cause trouble. Certain face creams with retinoids might fix them a bit. Medicine like isotretinoin can help too. However, these don't always remove syringomas fully. For better removal, procedures like lasers or minor surgery could work instead. You can contact a dermatologist for that.

Theres a small red dots on my pennis and its dry..somtimes it goes away and sometimes it seens.Even its not causing any pain pr itching.
Male | 26
Small red dots appearing and disappearing on the penis without irritation or discomfort are likely penile papules. These benign growths frequently occur in males. Occasionally, they may seem dry. Their exact origin remains unclear, but they don't typically indicate serious health issues. Maintaining proper hygiene and avoiding harsh cleansers or moisturizers can help manage them. However, should any changes or discomfort arise, consulting a dermatologist is important for reassurance.

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.

I am a 26 year old female. I went on vacation to Rhode Island. On Thursday after arriving I went and sat in a porch swing outside. A couple minutes later I felt something bite me. First it looked like mosquitos. Now it does not. Now it burns/stings. It does not itch. They are red and kinda scabbed over like. I have about 9 spots in a cluster on my back right in the middle of my spine. They are really uncomfortable.
Female | 26
You may have been bitten by a spider or some other bug that causes irritation. Initially these bites may resemble mosquito bites but they change with time. A burning/stinging sensation is a frequent symptom. To ease the discomfort, you could try applying a cold compress to the area. If it does not improve or if you start to feel unwell, visit a dermatologist.

Leave it open? Or what?
Male | 16
It seems that the burn is rather extensive and does not heal well. I would suggest early consultation with a dermatologist or burn specialist. Do not use any more cream and let the wound dry. It is essential to keep the wound well cleaned, dressed and treated. Seek medical help at the earliest.

Fungal infection hua hai baat karna hai
Male | 23
Fungal infections may create symptoms such as itching, redness, as well as irritation of the skin or even mucous membranes. They are usually the result of warm and humid environments or weakened immune systems. Keeping the affected areas clean and dry is crucial to reduce the discomfort. The absence of over-the-counter antifungal creams may help, but seeing a dermatologist is a good decision for personalized advice and treatment options.

My skin is very oily and I get pimples on my face
Female | 22
Excess oil production causes oily skin. Clogged pores result in pimples - painful red bumps. Wash your face twice daily with gentle cleansers. Use oil-free products. Avoid excessive face touching. If problems persist, consult a dermatologist.

Please I have a blade cut marsk last 5 to 6years ago and I want to remove it from my body so please how can I remove it from my body or skin please help me
Male | 24
It sounds like the mark from the blade cut has been a concern for you. Over time, scars can change in appearance; they may become raised, discolored, or itchy due to natural healing processes. To address this, options include topical treatments, laser therapy, or surgical removal, depending on the scar's characteristics. I strongly encourage you to consult with a dermatologist who can assess your situation and recommend the best course of action tailored to your needs. Professional evaluation ensures safe and effective care, helping you achieve the desired results.

When am lay on bed under speed fan after hapend have to go and urien paased more times..
Female | 35
You may be experiencing high nocturia, which is frequent urination at night, you need to see a urologist. Sleeping under a running fan may cause the body to lose more water and may result in increased urine production. This is probably the reason why it is from cases such as overdrinking before going to bed or a bladder issue. Avoid drinking liquids before going to bed and observe whether it is effective or not.

Skin infection in lower waist area
Male | 56
A skin infection was likely happening in the lower waist region. These infections happen when bacteria enters tiny cuts or hair follicles. You might notice redness, warmth, pain, and sometimes pus oozing. Keeping that area clean and dry is crucial. An over-the-counter antibiotic cream can help clear the infection. However, if no improvement occurs, visit a dermatologist.

Dots on dick hurts a little

The penis may have them in the form of small, elevated points. Generally, the cause of this is a type of virus known as HPV which can be transmitted through sexual contact. The warts may not be the most painful but can also slightly hurt. It is necessary to see a dermatologist for treatment options, which could include medicines or procedures to eliminate the warts.
