Stitches on web of hand have opened and now there is pus and earlier a large red mass on stiches

You may have an infection in the stitches on your hand. When pus comes out, it indicates that there is probably bacteria which is causing the infection. This might have occurred if the wound was not kept clean. If there was a large red lump previously, it could have been an abscess. It’s crucial to have this seen by medical professional because, without proper care, things like these can worsen.

my hair fall day by day increase why any thing wrong?

Male | 30

Hair fall is a common issue but it becomes a point of concern every day with the amount of hair shed as a result of stress, poor diet, or health problems. A balanced diet, stress management, and the treatment of underlying health issues are the best ways to take care of your health. The use of mild hair care products and avoiding high heat can also be beneficial.

Female | 22

Hair fall can often occur due­ to changing shampoos or using harsh products. This indicates your scalp might be sensitive­ now. To combat this, try a gentle shampoo without harsh chemicals. Stre­ngthening your scalp and reducing hair fall require­s patience. Eating a vitamin-rich, healthy die­t supporting hair health is crucial.

I am a 28 year female, with oily skin, having complaints regarding acne, acne scars, tanning, uneven skin tone and dullness. Can I get treatment options for my concerns as well as the cost so as to proceed further. Thank you!

Female | 28

There are many treatment options available to help address your concerns. You can choose from a basic skincare routine to more involved treatments such as laser treatments, chemical peels, light therapy, micro-needling, and laser treatments for acne scarring. These will work by stimulating new collagen in your skin, which can help reduce the appearance of scars. You can look into chemical peels, laser treatments, and light therapies for hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone. These treatments can help to break down pigmented cells and stimulate new cell growth, which in turn can help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation. For dullness, you can look into facial treatments such as microdermabrasion, which can help to exfoliate your skin and reduce dullness. Cost of these treatments can vary widely, depending on the type of treatment you choose. It is best to consult with a dermatologist to get better treatment options.

I am having problem with my piercing the hole on the top of the skin is closed but the earing is stuck from behind what to do

Female | 20

Your piercing might cause some trouble. Sometimes, the hole on top of your skin may close up while the earring remains stuck from behind. This can happen when the skin wraps around the back of the earring. You might experience pain, redness, or swelling. To solve this, you can gently try pushing the earring out from the back or seek help from a professional piercer. Never force it out, as that can cause more harm.
