Infected wound: What should I do?

Patient's Query

Hey, I'm 21 I have a wound and it feels bad. It's infected maybe. What can I do?

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

You may have a cut that has bacteria in it. Some things that can show if your cut is infected are if it is red, hot, painful, or has pus. Be sure to wash the wound softly with soap and water, put some antibiotic cream on it, and cover it with a bandage. Keep an eye on it and go to a doctor if it gets worse.

I am 21 years old and I have severe dandruff and itchy scalp . I used many anti dandruff shampoos but no use.

Male | 21

A common cause of dandruff is yeast which lives on everybody’s skin. Sometimes, if you’re using certain shampoos and they’re not working it’s possibly because your scalp needs something else. Try shampoo with an ingredient such as ketoconazole or salicylic acid in it and be sure to massage this into your head. Doing so should help decrease both the amount of flakes produced by the dandruff and also provide relief from irritation caused by dryness.

Mere chest me dard ho raha hai or eyes me dard ho raha hai or chicks me dard hai

Male | 18

You're feeling the blood in your chest, your eyes are aching, and tenderness in your cheek area. In some instances, chest pain can be caused by heart problems. The reason behind the eye pain can be either the strain or infection. The cause of cheek pain may be a sinus problem. Ensure that you take breaks, consume water, and do not rub your eyes. If the pain persists, medical assistance should be sought to determine the exact cause and receive the appropriate treatment.

Sir mujhe fungal infection hai or raat ko itching bahutvhoti hai or dark patches hai mai 1.5 years se medicine kha Raha hu plz help me??

Male | 19

Sounds more like a case of chronic fungal infection, but itching and the patches are common symptoms. Better visit the dermatologist, who will be able to tell for sure what kind of treatment is proper for this case. They will recommend you a course of special antifungal creams and oral medicine

Female | 20

There are many reasons why your skin may appear older than you’d like. Some of the most common include excessive sun exposure, smoking, and dehydration. Additionally, stress and genetics can also contribute to this issue. To improve the condition of your skin, it is advisable to apply sunscreen every day, drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and quit smoking. Using mild cleansers along with moisturizers can help maintain a healthy complexion.

Face problem sir please Mera skin bahut kharab hai

Male | 16

It's important to see a dermatologist. Skin type sensitive or oily? Acne or rosacea? These details are required for treatment. Avoid harsh products and over-washing. Use gentle cleansers and moisturizers. Sunscreen is a must. Avoid touching face. Treat underlying health issues. Eat healthy, stay hydrated.
