View allI recently got bitten by an insect they call the Nairobi fly, and now there's this blister on my skin that's turned into scabby scales. Does the whole blistering thing and scabbiness mean it's healing, or should I be worried about it? Also, after seeing my doctor, they mentioned something about an injection. Do you think this will help with the healing process, or is there something else I should be doing?
Nairobi flies don't bite, but their body releases a toxin when in contact with the skin. Secondary infection by scratching is to be avoided. See a skin specialist if needed.

I'm about to start taking isotroin 20mg and I'm feeling really anxious about it. Is this medication actually going to help me, or should I be worried about any dangers?
Isotroin 20mg is a brand name for isotretinoin, which is commonly used to treat severe acne. It is considered helpful in improving acne by reducing oil production and preventing clogged pores. It should be safe for you unless you are known to be allergic to it or experience concerning side effects.

I'm 21 and have been dealing with scabies for like 8 months now. I've tried a bunch of creams like permethrin and lindane, but nothing works anymore. The red bumps just keep coming back on my scrotum and penis after a few days of any treatment. Can you suggest something that could really fix this for good so it doesnt return again?
dermat opinion.
