I've had this really itchy circular ring on my foot for about a month now. It started out as just a patch with blisters, but now it's turned into this ring shape that's driving me crazy. I've been using antiseptic cream, but it doesn't seem to be helping at all. What could this be, and how should I treat it?

I've got a mark on my face from some stitches and I'm really hoping it can be removed. Could you please let me know if that's possible and what the options might be? I'm quite concerned about it.

Stitch marks on the face can be challenging to completely remove, but various treatments can help minimize their appearance; consider consulting a dermatologist or plastic surgeon for options like: topical silicone gel or sheeting, steroid injections, laser therapy, microneedling, or chemical peels to help flatten and fade the scars.
