I'm dealing with a really painful boil on my buttocks, and it's been bothering me a lot. I was wondering if taking Sporidex 500 mg would help clear it up?

I'm a bit concerned about this hard lump that's been on my left cheek for about two years now. It's about the size of half a small potato, and while it's not painful, I'm worried about what it could be. Any thoughts on what might be going on?

Surgeon opinion.

Hey, I've been diagnosed with hypothyroidism recently, and my TSH levels are pretty high, but my T3 and T4 are normal. I'm thinking about trying PRP treatment for my hair loss. Do you think my high TSH could make PRP a bad idea?

Dermatologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I've never had bruises like this from a blood draw before, and it's been 4 days now. They started out black and have turned dark brown, with a lot of pain and tenderness, and it seems to be getting worse. I'm even more concerned because I'm 7 weeks pregnant. Should I be worried about these huge bruises and the pain? Is this normal or should I get it checked out?

Miracle plus cream for local application, for atleast 4-6 weeks is advised.
