My relative had a hot oil spill accident and burned 25% of her legs. It's been 15 days since she's been in the hospital, and we're really worried about how long it'll take for her to recover. Can you give us some idea of the recovery time? We're feeling pretty panicked about this.

It takes really long time to heal and depends on the depth of the burns,no need to worry follow your doctor advice and give her high protein diet for a better result.

Question

I woke up this morning with a rash that kind of looks like a rat bite. I've noticed a rat in my room before and I've been using rat poison to try to deal with it. I didn't wake up last night and the wound hasn't bled or anything. Should I be worried or do anything about it?

Question

I've been dealing with these really itchy red circles on my skin, and it's kind of freaking me out. The edges of these circles have these little boil-like bumps, and when they dry out, there's this white flaky stuff. Does this sound familiar to you, and what do you think it might be? I'm really hoping for some advice on what could be causing this and what I should do next.

Question
