An abscess is a pocket of pus that can occur in different body parts. If you also have a continuous headache and a swelling of the throat on the same side, the abscess is probably causing more problems. Treatment by a dermatologist is the only road to get proper treatment. Procrastination of this could be a cause of more serious problems.

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.

Hello My name is simran actually my outer part of vulva area is infected and now it's itching alot

Female | 23

You may have a yeast infection. It can be responsible for such problems as itching, redness, and sometimes a thick discharge. Antibiotics, tight clothing, or a weakened immune system can be blamed for yeast infections. You can buy antifungal creams over-the-counter can ease the itching and help you get rid of the infection. You should be wearing only cotton underwear and avoiding those products with scents to ensure you are not further irritating the area.

Can i get hpv from touching doors,keyboards, cups, clothes or shaking hands ? Thank you so much.

Male | 32

HPV means human papillomavirus. You can’t get it from things like cups, clothes, doors, and keyboards. This virus is often spread through skin-to-skin contact. It can cause warts or even cancer in some cases. The best way to keep yourself safe from this virus is to get the HPV vaccine.

How to heal a areola biten mark

Female | 23

It depends on the extent of the damage. If the wound is mild, cleaning it with a mild soap and water will promote healing. For serious cases, you should head to a dermatologist or a plastic surgeon with expertise in breast reconstruction. It is also wise to seek medical assistance to avoid possible complications.

I am Himanshi, a 20 years old student. From last 2 years I am having acne on my face, which occurs suddenly in a bunch and are itchy as well. These are small and similar to each other and painless. I am having these on my forehead chin and cheeks. In summer these become worse. These not look like as pimple. From my pov, these are fungal acne (not sure that's why asking).... I hadn't took any medication before.. Using no lotion but a simple Himalaya neem facewash from past many years.

Female | 20

You seem to be going through a skin condition called fungal acne. This type of acne can start suddenly, itch, and can form small painless bumps that look similar. The summer heat tends to make it worse. Using just a neem facewash may not be the only thing you need. Switching to an anti-fungal face wash and adding an anti-fungal cream can be the next step. It is also important to clean and dry your skin properly to get rid of the problem.
