My corn is a couple months old but I'm a bit confused whether it's actually a corn or a wart. If it is a corn, what can I do to get rid of it? Would I need surgery for this?

Corn can often be treated with padding and salicylic acid; surgery only if pain persists or diagnosis unclear.

I had an accident about 15 days ago and got hit near my eye. Now that the wound has healed, I've noticed dark marks forming there, and they seem to be getting even darker. I'm really worried about it. I'm currently using MemopiHC cream, and I'm wondering if I should continue with it or if there's a better option out there. If you think this is something serious, should I see a doctor right away?

no need to worry,such scars would take time to heal ,you can continue the cream that your using now and donot scratch the affected area.
