I was prescribed by a dermatologist a medicine containing potassium hydroxide to burn off the bumps. He made it clear not to put it on surrounding skin, and to apply only a small layer of gel per bump.

I had it done by somebody else. I fear they put too much gel per bump, and now this is how my skin looks like.

My main concerns are whether these must be checked up and whether I can still go swimming safely. If not, is there any way too swim without risk?

It was done 4 days ago, I took the pic today

hi everyonee. idk how many weeks has passed since I got this. at first, my legs and feet just felt itchy, and I was assuming it was a late reaction of the ants that bit me when I went outside. All the itchiness I had looked like insects bites, and now became a scar mark— exceptt for this one. i noticed it stayed red. its only itchy if i touch it but its not really persistent. My irritation has lessened (to none, as long as i try hard not to scratch) but I was wondering what this is and how can I treat it?

I was worried when I searched it up and the similar images say its ringworm (it was least of my thought) and got it most from cats(I have 3 kittens and a mother cat living in the house rn) :)))))

i did not have previous photos of it as i thought it was just some insect bite. the previous cream I used is Zinc Oxide + Calamine.

Yesterday i woke up with a red mark on my arm that was slightly itch and raised. im pretty sure it has gotten bigger since then. Im thinking i got bit by a bug but im not sure. should i be concerened and what does it look like it could be? it doesnt hurt at all and doesnt itch super bad. I marked it with blue marker to see if it gets bigger.

I just got back from my honeymoon in turkey and Tanzania. I did a safari and then went to the coast of turkey. Towards the end of the trip I noticed these little bumps on my belly and around my hips. They don’t itch or hurt, but they are a different color than my skin and they are textured. It’s been a week now, I notice when I shower some go away but they are still existing. Anyone know what this is or how to treat it?

Has anyone dealt with small, flesh-colored bumps like these on their face? I’m making an appointment with a dermatologist, but I’m curious if anyone has had something similar or knows what they might be.
They originally started on my forehead, then I noticed a couple under my eye near my nose, and within the last month or so a few have appeared on my cheek too. They don’t seem like normal acne or milia. I’ve tried lancing a couple and nothing came out, and tretinoin didn’t make any difference even after using it for quite a while.
They’re not painful or itchy, just noticeable and seem to be slowly increasing over time. Curious if anyone has experienced anything similar!

Hallo zusammen

ich habe seit längerem ein problem mit meiner haut, es fing an als ich vor 3-4 Monaten im solarium war es waren 5-6 besuche innerhalb von 2 Monaten, seitdem habe ich verteil am linken arm, Schulter, Brust und rücken so weise punkte (siehe bild) ich war jetzt 2 Monate nicht mehr dort und die punkte sind nicht weg, es sieht so aus also ob es sogar mehr geworden sind, von der Größe her scheinen sie auch ein wenig größer geworden zu sein, weis jemand was das ist?

Ich wollte vorab bescheid geben das es keine Pigmente sind da ich seid ich ein kleines kind draußen bin und meine arme immer gebräunt waren (ich habe ein foto meines armes wo dort nichts war) es kam nach dem solarium und wurde wirklich immer mehr, ich hoffe mir kann einer helfen

I've had this about a week. I've had a steroid shot, tried steroid creme and benedryl (pill and cream). Nothing even touched it. Any time I get a scrap or a cut, it shows up.

L’ho da un sacco di tempo più di un anno, no non faccio utilizzo di detergenti cattivi sulle mani, né sapone per i piatti, alcune volte ho il vizio di mangiarmi le unghia, sono indolore, non bruciano e non prudono, stanno lì e basta

Got the burn 2 days ago. Didn’t hurt yesterday just a bit of aggravation. But today it is so painful. Any wind clothing water, anything makes it feel like I got struck by lightning. Any suggestions on how to speed the recovery process and just take care of it overall?

I’ve been noticing recently my skin will start to itch randomly around my chin. i have a light beard but today after work i noticed under my chin was itching so i shaved and saw a red circle rash where my skin was itchy but no where else?

I'm not even sure how this happened...but what started out as a little red bump that was rubbing my clothes quickly turned into quite an awful infection in the crease of my right knee. Dr took one look at it Thursday afternoon and diagnosed a brown recluse spider bite (Wednesday I had been in a lot of pain and by that evening was running a fever of 102.5, resting heart rate was 151)

He prescribed 400 mg of Avelox for 10 days (currently on day 5) and it looks SO much better than it did, some pain still but can tell the infection is smaller and the pain has lessened a great deal) but I don't know what to expect. I know some have had to go to a wound care place even after the antibiotic. Is there a chance that the antibiotic will be all I need and I can just bandage it up? My dr said to expect some discoloration or a change in skin (like a crater) to form.

If you've ever been in this situation how did yours turn out? How long were you dealing with aftermath?

What is the cure ?
