It seems like you are going through mastitis which is an infection in the breast tissue. The pus-like discharge is a sign of infection. Mastitis can result from bacteria entering the breast via a cracked nipple or blocked milk duct. It is important to keep on taking any prescribed antibiotics and not to squeeze the breast because it can make the infection worse. Ensure you feed and pump frequently in order to clear the infection. With proper treatment and rest, mastitis can generally be cured within a week.

Am I OK to Let Self-Trimmed Pubic Cut Heal?
Cut self trimming pubic hair Hi Im 25 and was trying to trim my testicles with scissors and knicked a bit of skin and they were proper scissors. It bled a decent bit at first but I was in the shower so I was able to get a bit of toilet roll and hold it to stop the bleeding. It made me very dizzy to the point where I was struggling to stand I'm not sure if it was just because I was panicking or pain. But It stopped for a bit and I tried to stand and it started bleeding a tiny bit like a drop because I think it was a proper cut. I stood up again but I don't thinks it's bleeding any more and just looks like a knick. But is it something I should get checked out or should it be fine to let it heal. Sorry if this is the wrong thing to do I don't really know who to ask and phoning the doctors at my bit is really bad just now cause there so busy and if I'm just overreacting.

If the bleeding has stopped and the cut is small, it should heal on its own. Keep the area clean and apply an antiseptic. However, because you felt dizzy and it was a proper cut, it's a good idea to see a doctor, specifically a dermatologist or a urologist, to ensure there's no risk of infection or other complications.

It’s normal for your 1.8-year-old daughter to have fine hair in those areas. It could be because her dad is hairy – sometimes it runs in the family. These hairs are not a problem and do not require any treatment. As she gets older these hairs may become thicker, but that is fine too.

If you’re dealing with hair problems like losing hair or having it thin, one possible factor could be stress, poor diet, or it running in your family. Hormonal imbalances, allergies, and not washing your face enough could cause acne or eczema. Don’t scrub too hard when cleaning, and stop picking at blemishes. You can also visit a dermatologist for your issues.

Why do I have black lines on my fingernail?
I have very light black horizontal line on my fingernail
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Typically it's nothing to worry about. These lines are usually due to small traumas to the nail or sometimes nutritional deficiencies. If the line is new and you can’t remember any injury, it’s best to keep an eye on it. Eating well-rounded meals and being gentle with your nails can help prevent these lines. If you notice any changes or other symptoms, seek advice from a dermatologist.

How can I prevent and reverse premature graying?

It is natural for our hair to change color as we grow older. However, if you see many grey hairs appearing before time, it can be annoying. This may occur because of different factors like genetics, stress, or lack of some vitamins. To avoid getting more grey hair, try managing stress levels, eating well-balanced meals rich in essential nutrients, and using mild hair care products. If you feel concerned about this issue, consult a dermatologist.

Have a Spot on My Face, Need Help?
Spot on my face please help me
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
A spot on your face can occur when your oil glands or sweat glands become blocked. Using a mild soap and water, cleanse your face gently twice a day. To avoid an infection, refrain from touching or squeezing the blemish. If it does not disappear or the size increases, make an appointment with a dermatologist as soon as possible. To clear it up, they might recommend lotions or other types of treatments.
