I've got a cut on my leg and have been using povirexm cream for about 5 days, but it doesn't seem to be getting any better. I'm just wondering what I could do to help the skin heal over the cut more effectively. Any advice?

I'm a bit worried about something. I had a 60 TCA cross done recently, and by the fifth day, I noticed that my skin started turning yellowish-white. I'm really suspecting it might be infected. I've been using terramycin skin ointment, but now I'm seeing some white stuff and pus coming out. Is this kind of reaction normal with this ointment?

I've noticed these small dark spots covering the backside of my upper arms for quite a while now, and I'm really curious if it's something that can be treated or if it's just a birth defect. Could this be something serious?

The dark spots on the back of your upper arms could be due to various reasons. Here are a few possibilities: *Possible Causes* 1. *Keratosis Pilaris (KP)*: A common skin condition causing small, dark spots due to keratin buildup. 2. *Follicular Melanosis*: A harmless condition causing dark spots due to increased melanin in hair follicles. 3. *Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)*: Dark spots resulting from inflammation or injury. *Treatment Options* 1. *Topical Creams*: Hydroquinone, retinoids, or vitamin C creams can help reduce dark spots. 2. *Chemical Peels*: A dermatologist can perform chemical peels to exfoliate the skin and reduce dark spots. 3. *Microdermabrasion*: A non-invasive exfoliating treatment that can help reduce dark spots. *Next Steps* 1. *Consult a Dermatologist*: Get a professional diagnosis to determine the cause of the dark spots. 2. *Discuss Treatment Options*: Work with your dermatologist to find the best treatment plan for your condition.
