I've been dealing with some really slow-healing wounds from a minor bike accident recently. I hurt my fingers, palm, and knee trying to save a dog on the road. I've already taken a tetanus shot and completed a 5-day course of amoxicillin. I've also been dressing my wounds with betadine solution and now switched to using soframycin under the bandages. But it seems like the wounds arent healing as quickly as I'd hoped. Any advice on what I might be doing wrong or any suggestions to speed up the healing process?

Question

I'm struggling with dandruff all year round, no matter the weather. I've tried using lemon juice, hair oils, anti-dandruff shampoos, even henna, but nothing seems to work. It's super itchy all the time, and washing my hair every other day hasn't helped at all. I generally have dry skin, but this dandruff issue has really worsened in the past year. Could you please give me some advice on what I might try next?

Question

I'm really concerned because my ears have been itching for the past week and they feel hot to the touch. The skin is getting rough on the outside, and I've noticed a bluish tint and constant swelling around them. What could be causing this and should I be worried?

Question

I've been dealing with some raised bumps near my vagina and on my butt cheeks. At first, they were in a smaller ring with low-raised acnes, but it's been a week, and now they've grown into bigger, more pronounced areas with the circle spreading. Touching them causes a burning sensation, even though they seem to be drying out. Plus, I'm noticing more vaginal discharge than usual, though it's clear. I'm not sure whats going on, but I'm pretty worried. Any ideas on what this could be?
