I've been struggling with lots of lice and lice eggs in my hair, and even with using Medikar and oils, nothing seems to work. My 10-year-old son is dealing with the same issue. Can you suggest some remedies for us?

I've got these small holes and some redness on my skin because of pimples. They aren't really noticeable unless you're pretty close, like 5 feet away or less. I'm currently using a cream with hq 2 vv. Do you think I should reach out to a doctor for this, or will it just get better on its own over time? Can you take a look at my skin in the pictures and maybe suggest something?

I've got an abrasion on my left wrist and I put some antiseptic ointment on it. I'm a bit unsure if I should cover it up with a bandage or just leave it open. Also, there's a little bit of liquid coming out of the wound. What should I do?

For an abrasion wound like yours, it is recommended to cover it with a bandage to protect it from dirt and bacteria, which can help prevent infection. You can use a sterile gauze pad and secure it with medical tape. Make sure to change the bandage regularly, at least once a day or whenever it gets wet or dirty. As for the liquid coming out of the wound, it is likely serous fluid, which is a normal part of the healing process. It helps keep the wound moist and aids in the formation of new tissue. However, if the fluid is excessive, discolored, or has a foul odor, it may indicate infection, and you should seek medical attention. To help with healing, you can also consider using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the wound before covering it with a bandage.
