I'm worried about this piece of glass that got embedded in my left palm near my thumb about a week ago. It's not deep, I think, and there's no pain, just this annoying sensation when I press on it. I'm wondering if it'll come out on its own. Is it possible to take it out myself with a small cut using a clean razor blade? Also, does our skin naturally push out foreign objects over time as it heals from the inside? Would love some guidance on this.

I've been dealing with this scabies issue for almost 45 months now. I used permethrin and lindane lotion, and that helped a lot, but I'm frustrated because I still have these nodular bumps and persistent itching, especially in my armpits and genitals. I've tried corticosteroid ointments and even oral antiallergics, but nothing seems to fully clear it up. What else can I do to get rid of them and the itching once and for all? I'm pretty concerned about why this is just not going away.
That means there are active mites still present visit dermatologist for complete course of the treatment and councelling regarding preventive measures.

I've been dealing with these red, itchy rashes on my inner thighs and it's causing a lot of discomfort, especially when I walk. It feels unbearably itchy. What do you think could be causing this and how can I help ease the symptoms?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection such as jock itch. I recommend using an antifungal cream such as Lotrimin Ultra or Lamisil AT. Apply the cream to the affected area twice a day for 2-4 weeks. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry, wearing loose-fitting clothing, and avoiding scratching the rash can help with healing.
