First Aid

I Don't Want To Ask My Doctor...Just Yet....Not To Be Gross & Please Take Me Seriously...There Like This..Idk What To Call It...It Feels Like A Bubble Or Just An Extra Piece Of Skin Or Something And Its Right There Around The Hole And I Don't Even Know How To Describe It...But When I Use The Restroom It Hurts...It Doesn't Always Hurt. But Sometimes....And I Think It Even Bleeds Sometimes...But When You Touch It...Its Really Painful. & i Have No Clue What It Is Or From. By The Way It Feels..Its Like As Big As The Tip Of A Qtip..And Its Skin...
What Could It Be? Help!

I got a cut on my arm, and used a disinfectant right away...well, now, it's all swollen and raw, with white edges. What do you think I should do?

BTW, It came in a white bottle, name brand "Industrial". Thanks!

Could someone please kindly tell me how to possibly treat my minor burn.
I burnt myself on the oven rack. The temp was at 400F and I had to stir the the potatos I was baking and accidently hit the top bottom part of my fings on the rack and it's pretty red and stings. Nothing I need to go to the ER over or anything. Its just a nice line going accross my pointer, middle and ring finger. Any solution I can use at home?
Thanks for all your kind answers in advance!! I am grateful for all of them!

Hi folks.

I'm trying to help some friends at the beach. Despite the fact they didn't invite me on their road trip, they decided to call me to help them. One of them got stung by a jellyfish, and they need a remedy. They've already tried rinsing it with vinegar, but it hasn't really healed. I've gone to different websites and they contradict one another. One says to apply ice, one says not to. Can anyone here help?

Oh, and they want to avoid putting urine onto the wound if possible

Thanks!

Okay, so over a month ago the side of a clothing iron fell on my arm. It was very on, and very hot. So, of course it burned me pretty bad. As of two weeks ago, I got a large blood blister on it. That blood blister ended up getting popped(by a door closing on my arm), and then a few days later I got two more little blood blisters, that eventually formed into one larger blood blister. And then a few days after that I got another one! Three days ago one of the blood blisters has healed(but left a little mark of a small amount of blood stuck where it was) and I received ANOTHER blood blister yesterday. And throughout the night it has spread into a larger one! I'm kinda worried about it, because I heard if things like that keep happening you might have a blood infection. My friends are all telling me to get it checked out, but my parents are very persistant on the fact that "it's okay." Who's right in this situation? Should I get it checked out? Thanks so much! <3!

Yesterday I was walking & accidently stepped into a fire ant nest. I have about 15-25 bites on my right foot. Once I looked down & saw the ants crawling on my foot, I ditched my shoe & ran dragging my foot through the grass. There was a lot of burning. About 30 -60 min later I got home & washed my foot with cold water & soap. I didnt think it was a big deal & didnt look into it more, but I put Lanabiotic (bacitracin, neomycin sulfate, polymyxin B sulfate, pramoxine HCl, aloe, benzoic acid, mineral oil, petrolatum, silica, tocopheryl acetate) on the bites the same day i got them.

Its been 1 day & I can confirm i dont have a serious allergy to fire ant bites but the swelling hasnt gone down and I havent gotten the pustules yet... all articles i read said that pustules formed about 30-60 minutes after the bite? I put bleach and water on my foot (perhaps too late to work now) and more Lanabiotic. I'm putting baking soda + water on my foot after the bleach settles in. What else can i do?

I'm not talking about the rabies shot but the Tetanus one. Would someone who gets a good dog bite in the face normally get it as standard procedure in an emergency room ?

I just recently got my ear pierced up towards the top and a few weeks ago was my 6 weeks deadline when i could take it out. Today i took out this one earring(not the same one i got it pierced with) and put a different one in. Then I took it out cuz it started to hurt really bad. Someone said it was kind of a purpleish blue around the hole. It's really red now and hurts like it did the 3rd day I got it when my friend accidentally bumped it with his shoulder while we were hugging. When I went to put alcohol on it tonight i felt the back of my ear and when i put little pressure on my ear this white stuff covered the hole and then started comming out of the whole! is my ear infected? or did i just mess with it too much? it really hurts and i plan to go to the doctor tomorrow...so it would be really helpful if i knew if it were infected before i make my appointment!

I'm 6 feet tall, 160 lbs or so. I work out 3 times a week and eat healthy. I don't drink anything except water. There are days when I wake up and my face looks puffy and fat almost swollen. I look nothing like myself. This lasts for a few days then I go back to normal. Then 1 week later it will happen again. It's not allergies. I've had a blood test. I'm thinking fluid retention, maybe? Are there pills for this. Sometimes I pop a Motrin and it helps, but Motrin isn't good for the stomach. Has anyone else experienced anything similar....greatly appreciate any answers...

I cut my leg by my ankle 5 days ago and there is still blood comming out. I change the bandages 2 times a day and put neosporin on it. When I take the bandages off there is blood on them. Should I just leave the bangages off? Should I put rubbing alcohol? What should I do for the cut to heal?

I got a thin shard of glass in my finger. It went in through the tip straight up and down, like a needle for example. There is still a peice of glass in my finger. It's really thin but maybe half a cm long. Theres nothing sticking out to get ahold of like a splinter. It broke off down in. My question is will it work it"s way out on it's own? I have insurance but I hate to go to the doctor and have the co pay for a "splinter" but what if the skin heals over it and it doesn't work it's way out? I can feel it in there when I touch my finger or bump it on something. Anyone ever have this happen? Will my body eventually eject it somehow?

yesterday i was walking in a store and then got a stabbing pain in my upper arm and then it started itching and burning and still does. i went to the after hours clinic and paid $80 damn dollars cause my insurance didnt cover it since it wasnt my doctor but my dr was closed well they said it was an insect bite and treat it as spider bite. My grandma thought it was a wasp or bee sting. Well they gave me a steriod shot and said the swelling should go down and it'd stop burning and itching and hasn't it's been almost 4 hours and to me it looks like it spreading but i cant do anything. Does anyone know what would do this to someone? shouldn't it stop burning after the shot like she said? even though she gave me a shot and pills to fill i have to get tomorrow if it spreads and still hurts should i call my doctor even though she treated it? i put ice pack and a damp rag on it and anti itch cream but it burns n still itches. its hard to sleep iono what to do.
