Can I heal a shallow cut after recent tetanus shot?

I have a cut which is not that deep I had tetanus shot in last 6 months how do I heal it

1 Answer

Answered on 12th Nov '24

There can be many causes of a cut. For instance, it can be you holding a sharp object. It's good that your cut isn't very deep, but being careful is crucial to prevent infection. Cleaning with mild soap and water is the key. An antiseptic cream is another option that could be employed along with the cleaning procedure. Wrap it with a clean bandage as a precaution. Be alert if you notice redness, swelling, or pain that might indicate an infection. Visit a dermatologist if you notice the above signs and symptoms.

I am a 13½ year old male, My date of birth is September 30th 2010 and I was born in Sligo and from Garrison Co. FERMANAGH'S border and I would like to ask if anything is wrong with me I have a lot of white spots on my dick all around the testicles and I have had these for a long, Do I have a hernia?

Male | 13½

It should be known that these things are quite usual and mostly innocent. They could be what is referred to as the Fordyce spots which simply put are oil glands. However, if there is any form of pain or itching accompanying them then it would be wise to see a medical practitioner who will advise accordingly. Hernias usually show themselves as bulges or swellings around the groin so there’s little chance they could be connected with the description of the said spots. To be sure, though, having them checked out by a healthcare provider would still do no harm!

I have an itchy scalp . I use shampoos to clean my scalp and also tried all home remedies as I could do but not getting cured. Kindly give me a solution.

Female | 19

Your scalp problem could be a medical issue that requires medical treatment. I recommend you should pay a visit to a dermatologist, who is a skin expert. They can detect the condition and recommend the medications or treatment option that should be taken. Avoid using any harsh chemicals on your scalp until you have been to a doctor.

I am using minoxidil since 2 month. After using this my hair line is more visible what can I do ?

Male | 25

This might happen sometimes as a side effect. Minoxidil could cause increased hair fall before new hair starts to grow. The most important thing is to wait because this shedding usually is temporary. If you are worried, it’s better to continue using the medicine as directed and consult your doctor for more advice.

I am facing the issue of itching on cheeks, hands and back

Male | 30

Itching on cheeks, hands, and back could be due to: 
- Dry skin
- Allergic reaction 
- Eczema or psoriasis 
- Bug bites or hives 
- Medication side effect. 

Try moisturizing, avoiding irritants, and OTC antihistamines. If symptoms persist, see a dermatologist.

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 28 year female.i have ithyosis vulgaris which is very itchy and dry skin is present.what can I do?

Female | 28

You might have a condition called ichthyosis vulgaris, where the skin becomes dry and itchy because it doesn't shed properly. To manage this, it's important to keep your skin moisturized with non-irritating, fragrance-free lotions. Taking warm, not hot, showers with mild soap can also help. Don’t forget to drink plenty of water, as it helps nourish your skin from the inside.

I am 18 years old and I have dark circle under in my eyes

Male | 18

The dark circles under your eyes can be annoying. The reasons might be lack of sleep, stress, or even allergies. However, rubbing your eyes a lot can also be the reason. Try sleep management, stress management, and not rubbing your eyes for a while. You can use cold compresses or eye cream as well.
