I'm really worried because I've been recently diagnosed with DPN and even though my doctor said it's common, these raised moles are spreading everywhere and it's freaking me out. Is there any way to prevent them from spreading even more? It's really affecting my confidence and morale, and I just want to know how to stop them. Any advice would be really appreciated.

I was in an accident recently and ended up with 3 stitches just above my lips, right below my nose. The stitches are healing well, but I'm really concerned about the scar that's forming. Could you recommend an ointment or cream that would help with scar removal? I'm just a bit anxious about this and would love some advice.
You can use Mederma ointment for scar removal. Apply a thin layer of Mederma ointment on the scar area 3 times a day for at least 8 weeks to see improvement in the appearance of the scar.

I'm dealing with recurring eye styes and some random skin sores, plus I've noticed there's pus behind my left ear. I read online that these could be related to HIV. Can you provide some advice or insights on what might be causing these issues?
Since the iron rod pierced your foot, it's essential to consider tetanus prevention. Tetanus is a serious bacterial infection that can enter your body through cuts or wounds, especially those exposed to dirt or soil . Given that your injury isn't deep, you'll still need to assess your tetanus vaccination status. If you've had a tetanus shot within the last 10 years, you're likely covered. However, if it's been more than 10 years or you're unsure, it's best to get a booster shot within 48 to 72 hours after the injury . To further minimize the risk of tetanus infection: - *Clean the wound*: Wash the injured area with soap and water, and dry it with a clean towel. - *Apply antibiotic ointment*: Put a thin layer of antibiotic ointment on the affected area to help prevent infection. - *Cover the wound*: Cover the injured area with a bandage or dressing to keep it clean and protect it from further irritation.
