Question

I recently burned my leg with a bike silencer about three days ago. The skin in that area has turned black, and while there's no pain, there's this clear liquid on a popped blister that keeps coming back after I clean it with a cotton. Should I be worried about this? Do you think it's necessary for me to see a doctor?

Question

I've had this dark horizontal line across my nose for the past two years, and nothing seems to help. It's embarrassing, and I've tried so many things, including a Q-Switch laser treatment that only slightly lightened it. Retino gel hasn't worked either, and I'm worried because I'm running out of options and can't afford expensive treatments. Could you suggest anything else I might try to get rid of this?

I'm dealing with acne and my doctor originally prescribed me Azax 500 mg, but it was out of stock at the pharmacy, so they gave me Azicip 500 mg instead. Is this an appropriate substitute for what the doctor recommended?
