Avatar f tn How sturdy is the flap after 3 weeks? Have you seen anything in your practice similar just looking for some opinion thanks!
Avatar m tn My 11 year old daughter has 1 hair-like growth on her scalp that is about 5 mm long and about 10 times thicker than her normal hair. It is hard and hurts if pushed or tugged on. It seems to point the same direction as the hair as it emerges from the scalp. She just noticed it today. I'd like to identify it and find out what to do about it. I have found terms like hardened hair, sclerothrix, sclero trichosis. I have searched things like huge hair shaft and gigantic hair shaft to no avail.
Avatar f tn I've had a growth on my right index finger, in the middle of the finger on the knuckle, started out as a blind pimple and has slowly grown to the size of my fingernail. Is quite soft but has a very dry cap and sometime small amounts of pus will be noticeable from the surface. Been to two different doctors, second Doctor did a biopsy which came back with the conclusion: "A granulomatous inflammatory process is seen at one end of the biopsy.
Avatar f tn About the size of a small fingernail, a small part of skin has grown inside. My belly button is sore.
Avatar m tn Around three years ago, I mashed my left thumb at work. This caused the fingernail to bruise and eventually come off. However, it has never grown back right. It has yellowing underneath the nail, like a fungus which the dermatologist tested for and was negative, and whiteness on top where the nail looks dead, and you can see the new nail underneath. The doctor didn't think I had damaged the nail bed because it was growing out straight, but is funny looking.
Avatar m tn I have severe irritation in and under my belly button. Iside is a cut that I admittedly think I caused with my fingernail, but I've done that before and it's gone away on its own. This has been with me for at least 10 days now and theirs a growth that's formed directly below my b.b. The growth isn't a zit, I can feel it's mass underneath the skin. It's small but irritated badly. Hurts if I touch it. ---Please tell me what this sounds like to you.
Avatar n tn t have it on any other part and my wife has never contracted it. Fingernail and cuticle are normal but the growth remains. I should mention I have had Type I Diabetes for 35 yrs now and is well controlled. There could be an auto-immune element at work here.
Avatar m tn s been going on for over a month peryoticly I try to dig out what feels to be a hard(like a fingernail) mass out off the wound. Tonight I had my son dig it out what we found was a hair deep(maybe a centimeter) under the skin on the edge of the wound and then fished out a piece of skin that looked like a worm almost. After dining the skin and hair out its stopped itching completely. My doctor says that it's eczema but I'm not so sure about that.
Avatar f tn For about 6 weeks I've had a lump on my labia majora about half the size of a fingernail. It's itchy and sometimes painful like a pimple. It is completely smooth and the tissue around it isn't red or anything. Doesn't look like a wart or a sore at all. It hasn't changed I'm thinking it's just an ingrown hair that is out of control. I have only one partner with no STD history and I have no history of STDs.

Avatar f tn Hi, I am a recently divorced mother and in a moment of stupidity I had what I BELIEVED was protected sex with a one night stand almost 5 months ago. When I didn't call him back, he began to harass me and stalk me. Finally, when I told him that I was getting the police involved he told me something very eerie and scary, he said "the joke is on you (me) and just wait I will see." This scared the **** out of me. I started wondering if he had taking the condom off during sex.
Avatar n tn About a week ago, I was cut inside my vagina via my boyfriend's fingernail. Throughout the sex that day (2-3 times after) I did not feel any sharp pain, just a normal, slight soreness from repeated intercourse. The next day, I felt extremely sharp pain when we attempted penetration, and I figured this was due to an internal cut (due to a fingernail) because I experienced a similar feeling a couple of years ago.
Avatar n tn Hi all I recently found a dark red circle on the tip of my tongue. Its about half to 2/3 of a fingernail in size. It doesn't hurt, though it feels tender some times.

Avatar f tn My fingernail/finger is showing no visable signs but where the fingernail meets the skin it is throbbing. I had no cuts on the hand is it possible to get fluids underneath the nail and trap it forcing it into the nerve endings? I fingered her hot and heavy for about 20 mins. Now my finger hurts near the nail weeks later.

Avatar n tn Can HIV be transmitted if semen got underneath a fingernail? In otherwords, is the tissue underneath the fingernail vulnerable to passing HIV into the blood stream?
Avatar n tn soooo, i went to my midwives app this morning. I'm currently 30weeks+6days. im only 5ft1 & weighed 7 stone when i got pregnant, but she said my bump is tiny and that its not grown since last time I went. she's booked me in for a growth scan tomorrow but now I'm just worried to death!
Avatar m tn Do you think the virus will transfer from my hand to zipper to then underneath my fingernail? Is it possible to get underneath the fingernail from a small metal zipper?
Avatar m tn I have read a lot of the answers regarding hand to genital contact, but none regarding fresh cuts under a fingernail. I feel like this might be a different situations since the cut is under my fingernail and therefore more "inside" of my body than a regular cut on my hand. So assuming that my partner lied about his status and I did touch the blood on the dildo, what are the chances of contracting HIV or other diseases?
