I'm really worried about this pimple near the left side of my face that's been there for the past few days. I tried to pop it today, and now there's swelling near my left eye. I'm attaching a picture of the area, can you help me figure out whats going on?

I recently got into a road accident and ended up with some pretty serious scratches on my left leg and hand. I'm wondering if it's okay to use Betnovat C cream on these wounds. Is it safe, or should I be considering something else? I'm a bit worried about using the wrong thing.

use it after cleaning the wound

I've been dealing with a fungal issue from a couple of years ago that cleared up with treatment. Now, the skin on my inner thigh is darkened, and when I rub it, black dirt seems to come off. I'm also a bit overweight. Is this discoloration a leftover from the infection, or is it possibly from my weight? What can I do to lighten the skin again?

The dark skin in the inner thigh area is likely due to a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which is often associated with obesity. To help improve the dark skin in the inner thigh area, you can try the following: 1. Maintain a healthy weight through diet and exercise. 2. Keep the area clean and dry to prevent further irritation. 3. Use a medicated cream containing hydroquinone or kojic acid to lighten the dark skin. Apply it as directed by your doctor. 4. Consider using an exfoliating scrub to help remove dead skin cells and lighten the area. 5. Consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options, such as laser therapy or chemical peels, if needed. Remember to continue practicing good hygiene and maintaining a healthy lifestyle to prevent further skin issues.

I've noticed a lump near my butt, and it really hurts when I touch it, and sometimes even when I don't. It's been there for a year, and now it feels like it's spreading from one lump to two. Should I be worried about this? What could it be?

IT MAY BE EXTERNAL PILLS. TABLET SIGMOFLAM TWO-TIMES A DAY AFTER LUNCH AND DINNER FOR FIVE TO SEVEN DAYS. LOCALLY APPLY XYLOCAIN GEL NEAR ANAL OPINING THAN INSIDE ANUS PROPERLY ALL AROUND BEFORE PASSING STOOL. AFTER DEFICATION AND WASH APPLY OINTMENT PROCTOCEDIL AS MENTIONED ABOVE PROPERLY. TILL SYMPTOMS DECREASE. CONSULT A GENERAL SURGEON.
