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

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 suggest visiting a reputed dermatologist for your problem. Based on the severity of your acne scars and pores and other factors, the doctor may recommend the best treatment option for you which can include a combination of chemical peels, micro needling, laser treatments, or topical skincare products.

Pigmentations are due to various reasons, Have to find out the underlying cause and treating the cause would be the primary approach Along , will start with depigmenting cream and sunscreens. Would suggest - Peels ,hydrafacial MD to see faster results. You can also visit the dermatologist near your place or have a video consultation with best dermatologist in Jodhpur Lake, Kolkata.

Hello dear doctor, I had an accident like 10 days ago, my leg got burnt because it touched the silencer, the burnt area turned completely white, and day after day, it released blood, yellow liquid, and its fresh everyday, its not even healing, im applying ointment called Quench, but it just dries over it and nothing is helping, I can't even walk, I really need help on what to do, should I apply any other ointment? 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.

I am 20 years old female. I have got open pores on cheeks for past 2 months. I am using Aloe vera gel and rose water on my face but can't see visible results. What should I do now and i have oily skin. When I go out in the sunlight my skin turns black after using sunscreen as well.

Female | 20

you can start with skincare routine for pores but treatments like microneedling will help better

Psoriasis can be a bit challenging to treat but various treatments like medications, laser treatments, alternative treatments like homeopathy etc., avoiding triggers that worsen your psoriasis symptoms can prove useful. I suggest talking to your doctor for proper examination of your condition which will help in deciding which is the best treatment for your condition.

I'm having big stretch marks on body.

Female | 20

Stretch marks are common and appear when the skin is stretched significantly. They can be purple, red, or silver, depending on how long they’ve been there. Causes include rapid growth, weight changes, and pregnancy. Solutions include using moisturizers, and creams, and maintaining a healthy weight. While they usually fade over time, they may not completely disappear.
