I've been noticing this red and black spot on my right breast for a couple of days now, and there's like this light redness around it. It's really hurting whenever I touch it, and it feels kinda uncomfortable around my right underarm. I'm worried about what it might be. Any idea what could be going on?

I was admitted to the hospital for a bedsore about 10 days ago and was given antibiotics. The heel is healing slowly but some parts still don't seem fully healed. The doctors initially mentioned plastic surgery but later said it should get better on its own. Should I keep taking the antibiotics or switch to betadine ointment now? The wound looks better but not completely closed.

Kindly consult plastic surgeon Sacral bed sore It will take time to heal May require surgery antibiotic and regular dressings Kindly keep the area clean Use air mattress Keep changing the posture of patient

Can melalumin lightening cream be used on lips to decrease melanin, or do I need to get the specific melalumin lip lightener? The chemist said it would work, but I'm not sure.

I would advise against using Melalumin lightening cream on your lips, even if the chemist says it will work. Here's why: 1. Formulation differences: Melalumin lightening cream is formulated for skin use, whereas lip skin is more delicate and requires specialized care. Using a skin cream on lips may cause irritation, dryness, or other adverse reactions. 2. Lip safety: Lips lack the protective barrier of skin, making them more susceptible to irritation and damage. Using a skin lightening cream on lips may increase the risk of adverse effects. 3. Specific lip concerns: Lip lightening products, like Melalumin lip lightener, are specifically designed to address lip concerns, such as dryness, pigmentation, and fine lines. They may contain ingredients that are more suitable for lip care. To ensure safety and effectiveness, I recommend using a product specifically designed for lip care, such as Melalumin lip lightener.
