Could be caused by dryness and hair of the skin surrounding my anus,causing tiny bleeds which dry up quickly.Otherwise,I am okay.

I had a boil (i'm pretty sure) for about a week and a half and it popped two days ago. it left a hole (about as wide as a q-tip)and a rather large cavity under the hole. is this normal? and would it be safe to put astringent on/in it? i need to dry it out somehow.

I have a sore on my groin which i believe was caused by shaving the area.

I normally use cheap old razors and i went and bought a really expensive gilette one and ta daaa! Just my luck. Never had one before...

I have heard of people getting ingrowing hairs from waxing but not shaving, but i don't know what else it can be.

It is like a hard lump under the skin about 1cm in diameter which went squishy on top like a blister and when i pierced it it oozed yellow liquid... enough to fill a teaspoon i imagine. Yummy.

Then i covered it in anti-septic cream and it seemed to go smaller.

However its still there and oozed some more goo yesterday, although much less, and then more anti-septic cream.

Now its just a hard red lump.

I've had it about 4 weeks.

Any suggestions?

I always get bruises that I have no idea where they come from. Sometimes they are small and really dark colored(usually deep purple and blue) and other times i just get a light yellowish green bruise that is a little bigger. Many of them last a really long time.
does this have anything to do with poor circulation or even anemia?

A friend has asked me to source a really good cream to stop her heels from cracking from the dry skin she suffers from. I have researched a lot of creams but a lot of them seem to have 'Urea' in them (And we all know what that is!).

Is there a cream out there that people have tried and tested and can recommend - I don't want to insult her by getting a cream with pee in it....

Only sensible answers please - appreciate it!

I have moderate acne on my face and really want to go to the dermatologist to get a prescription because over-the-counter stuff hasn't had any effect. How should I approach the situation in asking my mom? Thanks guys for any help.

This may sound trivial but my finger nails are peeling. Badly. Nothing that people have recommended that I have tried is helping. I am using a nail product to glue the peeling down but the old nail is still peeling off and it is continuing to start "new" peels. Some of the nails have peeled half way down and are very sensitive. What is causing this and is there a medical treatment (not an OTC nail product) that can help me get it to stop? In other words I don't want to treat the symptoms, I want to stop it from happening!
