I've got these burns from hot oil splashing on me in the kitchen a couple of days ago. The blisters have started to open up, and I'm not sure what to do about them. A friend gave me some clobetasol propionate cream 0.05%. Will that actually help with my burns? Most of them are small on my right arm and chest, but there are a few as big as 12 inches. Im kind of unsure about using this cream on the burns. Could you advise?

I have a skin tag near my anus and I think I might also have a fissure. Is there any way to treat this without surgery? Are there medicines or home remedies that can help with the pain and healing?

Topical creams, sitz baths, and stool softeners may help anal fissures and skin tags. If conservative treatment fails, minor procedures may be needed.
