I'm having a bit of a freak-out right now. I've always had a few breakouts after getting my back waxed, but this time it's way worse. My back and even my upper chest are completely covered in these tiny red breakouts. It's really worrying me. Do you have any idea why this might be happening or what I should do about it?

It is not unusual to experience breakouts or irritation after waxing. The widespread nature of your breakouts this time may be caused due to folliculitis or allergic rash. It may also be contact dermatitis to the type of wax used on this occassion. It is best to consult a dermatologist for further intervention.

View allI've had this small bump on my nose for as long as I can remember, over 56 years now. It's not painful or irritating, but it popped up after I had a really bad pimple there years ago, and the scar just turned into this bump. I've tried all sorts of ointments and creams, but nothing seems to work. It's pretty noticeable, and honestly, I just want a smooth nose again. My skin is on the oily side, so I was wondering if there's a permanent treatment you'd recommend that doesn't have side effects?

I accidentally burned my middle finger with hot oil about a week ago. I've been taking cefpodoxime 200mg twice daily, using megaheal cream for the dressing, and taking diclo p tablets for the pain. But it still hurts when I'm changing the dressing. Is there anything else I can do to help it heal faster?
