I'm currently treating my acne and my doctor told me to take Azithromycin 500mg three times a week before meals, but I've been having really bad loose motions on the days I take it, like up to four times. It's making me feel like all my energy is drained. Is this a normal side effect? Should I just keep taking it or is it better to stop?

View allI'm getting married soon and I'm worried about some nail cut marks on my face that I got from a small kid. Can you suggest ways to heal or lessen these marks before the wedding?
To remove nail cut marks on your face, try these remedies: apply topical creams like hydroquinone, kojic acid, or vitamin E oil; use natural ingredients like aloe vera, turmeric, or cucumber; gently exfoliate with a facial scrub; and consider professional treatments like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, or laser therapy, but consult a dermatologist for personalized advice and to ensure the marks fade before your wedding.

I've got this sudden blister on my waistline that showed up this afternoon, but there's no rash that I can see. I usually sweat a lot. Yesterday I was out in the sun for over eight hours. I'm curious about what's causing this blister. Could it be related to the sun exposure or maybe something else?
That could be folliculitis or pemphigous,visit dermatologist as soon as possible for evaluation and appropriate management.

I've got a skin burn from a bike silencer that happened about a month ago, and it's still not healing. I've seen a doctor and completed an antibiotics course, but the situation hasn't improved. Now, for the past 23 days, I've noticed small bumps around the burn with liquid inside them. The liquid keeps leaking out, and there's a lot of itching. What do you think is going on, and what can I do to help it heal?
It sounds like you may have developed an infection in the burn wound. I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to help prevent further infection. Additionally, you can take an oral antibiotic like Augmentin to treat the infection from within. For the itching, you can take an antihistamine such as Levocet.
