I got bitten by an acid fly and now I have these big red patches on my neck and face. The doctor I saw mentioned that the marks might not go away. Is there anything I can do to help remove these marks? I'm pretty worried about it.

I'm really worried about this painful bump I have. A friend of mine went to a doctor who tried to squeeze a similar boil-like thing but nothing came out and it was really painful. That doctor prescribed antibiotics and told them to use cold compresses, but I think hot compresses might be more effective. Honestly, I wasn't too impressed with the doctor's approach. Can you help me figure out what this painful, swollen bump might be?

I'm worried about a burn scar I've had for about a month. There was a fire accident at my house, and I ended up with a superficial burn. It seems like only the first layer of my skin was affected. Is there anything specific I should do to help it heal better or reduce scarring?
