I've got this green spot on my right arm that's been there for like 4 years now. When I squeeze it, pus comes out, and honestly, it smells pretty bad. I'm not in any pain, but it's just really unpleasant. Do you have any advice on what I should do about it?

Question

I've noticed a ring-shaped bruise on my back, and it's a bit painful when I press on it. When I touch it, the skin feels smooth. I'm curious and a bit concerned about what this could be. What might be causing this bruise, and should I be worried about the pain?

Question

I've been noticing tiny pin pricks on my hand nails for the past month and I'm getting worried. Last December, I had a preventive blood test done and it showed I have a folic acid deficiency. Could this be causing the pricks? I'm also on Telsar 40 for my high blood pressure. I spend most of my time working in a corporate office, usually in an air-conditioned room. I'm really curious about what exactly might be causing this. Do you think it's something serious or just related to my deficiency?
