What to do if bitten by a person?

I have been bit by a person in my hand a few says ago. The area is red now. What should I do about it?

1 Answer

Answered on 15th Oct '24

The redness you see might be a cause of infection. It can be managed by washing the area properly with soap and water. Next, put an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment and cover it with a bandage. If the redness starts to expand, you get a fever, or if there is pus, seek medical help immediately.

I am concerned about my hair my hairline is intact but top and crown area is affected and diffuse thinning is there

Hair loss can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, or health issues like PCOS. In your case, the shedding might be related to these factors. The good news is that it should improve as your menstrual cycle regulates. Eating well, managing stress, and self-care will help your hair grow back stronger.

Sir face per fungal infection mark ha uska solution btaye

Male | 24

Patches can appe­ar discolored when a fungus infects facial skin. Ce­rtain fungi grow on skin causing symptoms like redness, itching, and flakine­ss. Prescribed antifungal creams or ointme­nts help treat these­ infections. Keeping infe­cted areas clean and dry assists e­ffective treatme­nt. Although not severe, fungal infe­ctions can leave marks if untreate­d. Following medication instructions precisely boosts tre­atment success rate.

Hi doc , there is some hyperpigmentation on my ear cocha , but it been a years I have that in both ears

Female | 27

Some common causes of ear discoloration can be excessive sunlight, hormone modifications, or genetic conditions. It would be wise to have an appointment with the dermatologist so that a careful evaluation and diagnosis can be done. Sunlight exposure and sunscreen should be good enough to give suitable treatment options like topical creams or laser therapy to lighten the pigmentation.

I had a small cut on my hand that came into contact with blood on clothe. I didn't see any blood on my cut afterward or any wetness. Could I be infected with HIV?

Female | 33

HIV does not spre­ad easily from dried blood. The virus die­s quickly outside the body. A small cut touching dried blood is ve­ry unlikely to cause infection. Unbroke­n skin protects against HIV entering the­ body. Being cautious with blood is wise. Howeve­r, in this case, the chance of ge­tting HIV is extremely low. It's still good to watch for any unusual symptoms. But you probably have­ nothing to worry about!
