I've been getting a lot of skin warts on my face, hands, and other parts of my body, and now my wife and kids are getting them too. Could this be contagious from me? What are some good home remedies to try, and if it gets worse, would surgery be an option?

View allI've got some small white patches on my neck and chest. I've been using TBIS 0.1 and trimop forte, and it's helped stop them from spreading. But now I'm wondering what I should use for the depigmentation. Any advice on this would be great!
For depigmentation of the white patches on your neck and chest, you can try using a topical corticosteroid cream like Clobetasol Propionate 0.05%. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected areas once daily for a few weeks. Additionally, you can also consider using a skin lightening cream containing Hydroquinone 4% to help even out the skin tone. Make sure to use a broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day to protect your skin from further pigmentation changes.

Does burnt hair grow back?
It entirely depends on level the burn took place. For mild burns hair regrowth usually takes places once the scalp gets healed.

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.
