I recently got bitten by something called a Nairobi fly, and now I've got these awful blisters that hurt a lot. I've been taking cetrazin antihistamines for the past three days, but they haven't helped at all. The blisters seem to be spreading, and I'm really worried because I don't know how to treat this. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I sprained my neck about three days ago and I'm still on medication for it. Now I'm noticing these watery blisters popping up behind my ears in the same area. I'm wondering if it's because I've been using Volini on my neck. Could this be causing it? Should I be worried about these blisters or is this a normal reaction?

I've been dealing with a boil just below my waistline and have been using a warm compress three times a day. It popped yesterday and when I took the bandage off this morning, I noticed there's a white scab with some blood. Is it normal for the scab to be white, maybe because of moisture or something?

Yes, it is normal for the scab to appear white, especially after it has been covered with a bandage and exposed to moisture from the warm compress. The white color is due to the accumulation of pus and dead white blood cells at the site of the boil. To help with the healing process, you can continue applying warm compresses to the area and keep it clean. Additionally, you may consider using an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection.
