I had a bandaid on my finger for a couple of days because of a cut, which seemed to have healed. When I took the bandaid off today though, my finger looked kinda weird. What could be going on? Should I be worried or do something about it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
it's likely that the skin under the band-aid has experienced skin irritation or contact dermatitis, possibly due to adhesive or friction; apply a topical antibiotic ointment and cover with a breathable dressing to promote healing, and consider switching to hypoallergenic band-aids or alternative wound dressings in the future.

View allI've been dealing with an itchy butt for nearly 2 months now. There are a few spots that look like bug bites and they hurt and feel like pimples. I also noticed in the inner corner of my anal area, there's something that resembles psoriasisit's scaly, itches, and peels sometimes. The scarring is pretty bad, and I'm feeling self-conscious about wearing a bathing suit since the scars are visible all over my butt. My sister seems to have a similar issue but without the bug bites. We initially thought it might be the vaginal wash we were using, but even after stopping, these issues persist. I have a dog that sleeps with me under the covers, but she's on flea medicine. She also sleeps with my brother, who doesn't have any of these symptoms. Could this be something like scabies, spider bites, flea bites, or even mange? What can I do to soothe the itching and help with the scarring? Are there any over-the-counter meds or natural remedies you'd recommend?
it may b scabies use permithrin lotion and levocetrzine tab at night times

I've been noticing these black dots on my chest and stomach for the past couple of months. They're not painful or itchy, but I'm curious and a bit worried about what they might be. I usually sleep without a shirt, so I'm wondering if that might be related. Could you help me understand what these might be and why they've appeared?
That could be keratosis pilaris ,maintain personal hygiene,apply moisturizer twice a day,it takes time to hela but will be cured no need to worry.
