I've recently discovered a lump under the skin on my mons pubis. It's not really painful at all, but it does hurt a bit when I touch it. Should I be concerned about this? What could it possibly be?

The lump you are describing could be a swollen lymph node, an ingrown hair, or a cyst. To help reduce any inflammation or pain, you can try using over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen. If the lump persists or becomes more painful, it is important to have it evaluated by a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I've got these lesions all over my body and they're really itchy. Plus, I've developed some thick blisters on my hands and palms. I tried using permethrin cream and taking ivermectin 12, but nothing seems to be helping. What could this be, and what should I do next?

I've been experiencing a lot of hair loss over the past two months and started using Mintop 2 about 20 days ago. However, it feels like the hair loss has actually increased since I began using it. I remember last time I tried it for a month, and it seemed to help stop the hair loss. I'm 23 and female. What do you think could be happening? Could it just take more time to work, or should I be concerned?

Question

I've been dealing with some lingering issues after a bike accident about six months ago. The left side of my face was injured and it has been swollen ever since. The swelling hasn't gone down and there are still some light marks, plus the skin feels really thin around that area. I'm getting a bit worried and am wondering how I might treat this. Any advice on what steps I should take might be helpful.
