View allI've been dealing with this annoying issue for a couple of years now. I had a motorcycle silencer burn on my right calf, and while it healed, I keep getting these weird allergic reactions at the same spot. Even when I don't mess with it, I see pus-filled pores popping up there occasionally. I've tried consulting several skin specialists, but nothing seems to work long-term. What could be the reason behind this persistent problem, and do you have any advice or treatment suggestions?
That usually heals slowly,avoid scratching and consume more protiene so that it heal ssoon

I'm wondering how I can get rid of the blade cut marks on my arm. Is plastic surgery the only option, and if so, what might this treatment cost approximately?
To get rid of blade cut marks on your arm, you can consider using topical silicone gel sheets such as Strataderm. Apply a thin layer over the scar twice daily for at least 60-90 days for best results. Additionally, you can use Mederma cream which contains onion extract and allantoin to help improve the appearance of scars. It is important to apply these products consistently for several months to see noticeable improvement. If the scars are deep and extensive, you may consider consulting a dermatologist for other treatment options such as laser therapy or steroid injections. However, the cost of plastic surgery or other treatments can vary depending on the severity of the scars, the type of procedure needed, and the location of the clinic.

I'm 16 and I'm noticing that I have a mustache and a bit of hair on my chin, but nothing on my cheeks, and my sideburns are pretty small. I'm feeling a bit self-conscious because everyone in my family seems to have a good beard except for one of my uncles. Someone mentioned that shaving every day for 20 days might help me grow a beard. Is that true? I'm really curious if there's anything I can do to help the hair come in, especially on my cheeks.
thats patchy beard and there are many successful treatment modalities avaialable,visit Dermatologist for appropriate management
