I'm dealing with chickenpox; it's been about two days and the blisters are getting pretty uncomfortable. A friend mentioned that his doctor recommended Fucidin cream when he had chickenpox. Do you think it would be okay for me to use Fucidin on these infected areas too, or should I stick to something else?

View allI've got a bruise with a yellow center on my left leg, and it's kind of weird because it was itchy at first and then got a little swollen before turning more yellow in the middle. I'm pretty sure I didn't bump into anything. Could an insect have bitten me even though I don't see any bite or puncture marks? It's painful when I press on it, and I'm getting worried it might be some kind of infection. What do you think this could be?
You may have a bruise with some inflammation and possible infection. To help with the pain and inflammation, you can take ibuprofen 400mg every 6 hours as needed. Additionally, you can apply a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin on the affected area twice a day. Make sure to keep the area clean and avoid scratching it. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I applied lime on a mole on my face on August 1st, 2017, and it led to a burn. The burned skin came off on August 7th, but now the area is red. I'm currently using Fucidin ointment as advised by my doctor, but it's still red. My engagement is on August 25th, 2017. Can you suggest how I can heal it or make it better?
Given the burn injury and prolonged redness, consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice; in addition to Fucidin ointment, apply topical treatments like aloe vera gel, silicone sheets, or vitamin E oil to promote healing and reduce redness; also, try cool compresses, avoid direct sun exposure, and use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 to minimize scarring and hyperpigmentation, and hopefully, your skin will improve by your engagement date.
