I've got this lump on my butt cheek, maybe about an inch or so in diameter. Sometimes it swells up, I think because of the heat or something. It's really hard not to try to pop it a bit because it sort of tears when I sit, then it releases some pus and eventually calms down. My English isn't great, but I hope you get what I'm saying. Could you help me understand what's going on here?

I'm still dealing with a pretty bad infection on my inner thigh, and even after taking and applying Terbest like my doctor suggested, it hasn't gotten any better. It's been over a month now, and I'm not sure what to do next. Can you give me some advice on what might be going on or what steps I should take?

I'm really worried because my wife took the i-pill about 20 hours ago and now she's got these small blisters on her back and buttocks. Should I be seeing a dermatologist about it or will they just go away on their own eventually? Also, any tips on what we can do in the meantime to help with the itching?
