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.

Tangan bengkak selepas vaksin COVID dah CT scan Masih bengkak

Female | 21

Pembengkakan pada tangan selepas pengambilan vaksin COVID-19 boleh terjadi akibat reaksi normal sistem imun. Ini biasanya termasuk kesakitan, kemerahan, atau bengkak di kawasan suntikan. Jika simptom berlanjutan walaupun selepas CT scan, penting untuk memastikan tiada jangkitan atau komplikasi lain. Anda boleh meredakan bengkak dengan kompres sejuk dan mengangkat tangan yang terjejas. Namun, jika keadaan tidak bertambah baik atau paling teruk, adalah bijak untuk berjumpa doktor bagi mendapatkan penilaian lanjut. Kesihatan anda adalah keutamaan, dan mendapatkan nasihat profesional adalah langkah terbaik.

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.
