Will NaCl make my wound sting?
If you put salt (NaCl) on a cut it may hurt a bit. The reason for this is that salt is able to kill germs. Therefore if you rub salt in a wound it will only be painful temporarily. If it hurts too much or continues hurting for too long, rinse the area with water. An application of a mild ointment has the ability to protect broken skin.

Why do I have red spots on my feet?
Usually, they’re a sign of a common skin condition called eczema. Itchy red spots on the skin are the most common symptoms. Clothing that is too tight and sitting for long periods can make it worse. Ways to help include wearing loose clothing, keeping your skin moisturized, and not scratching it. If the itchiness doesn’t improve, it’s a good idea to talk to a dermatologist.

Why do I have bumps and cuts in pubic area?
You might have something called folliculitis, which is a pretty common condition. This is when the hair follicles get infected and it causes bumps with sometimes open cuts. Wearing tight clothes or shaving can both cause this by a rubbing or friction though. Treatment involves keeping the area clean, not wearing tight-fitting clothing and applying warm compresses. If these things don’t work then definitely see a dermatologist.

Why White Spots on Face & New Ones on Hands?
It sounds like you may have a skin condition called vitiligo. Vitiligo causes white patches to appear on the skin because the pigment cells stop working. It is not contagious or harmful, but it can cause worry or self-consciousness. There is no cure for vitiligo, but treatments like corticosteroid creams or light therapy may help. It's best to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and management.

Are red rashes and white lines on my penis normal?
The red rashes accompanied by intense itching can be a sign of fungal infection or irritation. Fordyce spots, which are harmless, could be what the white pimple-like lines on the lower part of your penis are. Use OTC antifungal cream on the rash and ensure the area remains dry and clean. If your symptoms persist, visit a dermatologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

How to treat dull skin, dehydrated skin, and dark spots?
It seems like your skin is dry and lacks brightness; besides the pimple scars on your nose. Skin becomes dull due to lack of water in it. Spots get darker as a result of spots. Drink water and wash your face regularly using mild soap then apply lotion too. In addition, you can wear sunscreen to prevent the darkening of these patches further.

Why are red round spots reappearing despite medication?
The red and circular patches that have spread all over your body might be ringworm. This is a fungal infection that requires specific antifungal drugs like Terbinafine or Clotrimazole in many cases. The affected areas should be kept tidy and dry; loose clothes may also be worn.

Could white bumps down there be razor bumps or pimples?
I think you may have ingrown hairs there these are both two small white spots. This occurs following shaving when the hair grows back into the skin. The area may be tender when touched. Until they clear up, don’t shave over them, and try gently exfoliating your skin. If this doesn’t work or if you’re worried about anything else then please see a dermatologist.

Do I need rabies vaccine after cat bite today?
Your rabies vaccine was completed last May, so you’re protected from getting infected by it. However, if a cat bit you today, watch out for any fever, headache or weakness that is abnormal. Seek medical attention immediately should you see any of these symptoms.
