Avatar m tn When you look more closely there are tiny white vein like things under the skin of the glan especially over the ridge. Those veins are more noticeable when I have an erection and the glan has expanded fully, and after a couple of minutes having the penis erect, the white vein will turn into the same color as the rest of the glan, like blood finally got to it or something.
1638239 tn?1300404202 My DR has prescribed fentanyl patches for me to keep on for 72 hours. I'm having trouble keeping them on and I've read through and it appears most ppl recommend taping the outside 4 corners of the patch. I've done that however the middle of the patch (where the medicine is at) is not sticking to my skin. Does that mean I am not getting my full dosage because it's not sticking to my skin like it should be?
Avatar n tn I've had warts passed through my family, from my son to my wife to me, and am finally getting rid of the one on my left thumb by a mix of 40% salacilic acid pads for a day then filing with a new nailfile until it bleeds and hurts, then putting on a new pad. Its very close to gone. However, to more have appeared on my right hand, index and middle finger but they're under the skin so I can't do much. Should I try freezing? A wartabater?
Avatar f tn Hello! Hopefully there will be someone out there that can help! After going through hell a number of times, and nearly loosing my father every time, he received an ileostomy. He's finally able to eat and pass food again, which is a blessing! and the surgery has actually stuck to a certain degree (he keeps getting hernias even though he uses a hernia belt and they keep having to put him through surgery to fix it, but otherwise the surgeries are successes).
Avatar n tn the bandage on her neck is clear, and I can see the skin is red under the bandage. The redness has not spread out from the bandage. She has not had a fever that I know of. she has been on motron to releive the pain from the surgery. I think that it is just the bandage itself irrtating the skin. Should I be concerned, or is this just normal? I have told my daughter not to itch it, but she says it is itchy.
Avatar m tn My 8 year old mix underwent surgery two weeks ago to remove a mast cell tumor on her leg. The wound was sutured and stapled, but because a large chunk of skin was removed, a lot of stress was put on the incision, the staples and many stitches popped out leaving an area of exposed muscle about 3 x 3 inches. It is raw, bloody and gross looking.
15740368 tn?1442665097 I took meds for pain, inflammation and antibiotics, now I only take Vit D, Zinc and Calcium.I had bandage for one week, but now I have orthosis because my nail might fall off. I have dark blue-purple-black hematoma under and around the nail and it's really solid on touch. The nail started to change the color from dark blue to purple and it's still growing. I'm not really sure now what to do with the hematoma, should I put something or keep it dry ?
Avatar m tn I left a bandage on the warts all day and would apply a new bandage with acv 2-3 times a day. The warts turned white after the first day then black by the third day. On the fourth day there was fresh raw skin. At that time, I discontinued acv treatment and applied tea tree oil for one day. After that, I made sure to keep the area clean. I have been applying neosporin to help it heal and prevent and infection. In about a week your warts should clear.
Avatar f tn hi lora, wel sometimes these bruises takes longer than 2-3 months to go off completely. Especially if your skin is too much white coulor, coz it's visible easily. Don;t worry for that. Regarding pain, the ankle joint is a complicated joint and small ligament injury, which is impossible to be seen on x-ray, takes a long time to heal up. So give it rest. you can use up elastocrape bandage to ease up your joint. Hope i am clear. Feel free to ask more.
Avatar m tn hello i have a white line under the skin of my finger its kinda bumpy but not itcheydid i pull a musle in my finger?
Avatar m tn which is apparently an adhesive that can be applied to the skin prior to applying a bandage... Has anyone heard of this stuff?
Avatar m tn So I have a few questions regarding GW. 1 - My partner recently found out that she has GW. We've been sexually active for about 3 weeks. After finding this out, I looked into treatment and found out about using Apple Cider Vinegar. I noticed a small bump on my shaft, so I went ahead and wrapped half a paper towel soaked in ACV around my shaft and let it sit for a few hours.
Avatar n tn Just an update. I was actually able to take the white covering off (I believe it was dead skin). I dipped the tip of my penis into warm water and let it sit for a little while. A piece of the white sin started to hang loose and I was able to pull it off. Problem now is I think it is coming back and the trouble and pain of urinating isn't going away. When is it alright to take the bandage off? Its been 48 hours for me.
Avatar n tn When it does break keep it clean with soap and water and bandage if bleeding. CHange dressing daily until skin is heeled with no more drainage.
Avatar f tn my dogs leash got wrapped around my leg and pulled the skin off and made it like rope burn now it is starting to get green in the corner of my wound under the skin what do I do
Avatar f tn About 5 days later I removed the bandage because it hurt every time my finger touched anything. My skin was white and there was a pus filled blister 2-3mm in size, about 3 mm away from that cut. I pricked and drained it and cleaned it with alcohol and put Neosporin and fresh bandaid on. It seemed better but the next morning it was swollen and stiff again! When I uncovered it I found another "pimple" starting on the exact opposite side of the same finger.
Avatar n tn Hi, I'm concerned about what was a hard purple bump under the skin on my daughter's upper arm. I took her to the docter who thought it was a sebaceus gland but wasn't sure. I asked to have her referred to a dermatologist but he just laughed at me and squeezed the area with great force. Her arm was welted up and all that came out was a little blood. There was no appearance of an enlarged pore, whitehead or blackhead. It was hard and looked like a vein prior to this.
Avatar f tn They did go away a bit ago but now they came back and are worse. He is constantly licking and hair loss. Now he has licked the skin bare and the sores are getting really red. He had these about a month ago and he ate/drank fine. Then they seemed to go away for a bit but now came back worse. I noticed he hasn't been eating much this week and barely moving around, just laying around licking.
Avatar m tn Do they seem like blisters? If they break, keep the skin clean with a bandage or covering, because open skin can get infected. Maybe it is an allergic reaction to something? Did you recently walk on something with bare feet? It might be "contact dermatitis." If it itches, it could be an allergy to something you walked on barefoot...
Avatar m tn Last week I got a piece of skin cut off for a biopsy. It is about 1 inch below the head of the penis (I am circumsized) kind of half where the old foreskin is folded over and half just on the regular shaft of the penis. I have been keeping the wound covered from Monday until Saturday with neosporin in the beginning and then vaseline on it (plus a bandage) but I noticed literally zero change other than it stopped bleeding. The wound looks exactly like it did the day I received it.
Avatar n tn d give you a shot at it! On one of my fingers I have a bunch of tiny white bubble looking spots underneath my skin. (No lesions, no itching). However when I run my finger over the area it feels hard. The skin is only slightly raised over the area where the "bubbles" are. The little spots are also slightly discolored (white).
Avatar m tn I have a bump under my skin on my left arm, about a centimeter large. It feels like a pebble. Also Have them in these locations. Right arm on the palm side, smaller then the one on my left arm, Something kind of like a pebble under my chin bone My right temple, theres a pebble feeling bump that moves around. the one on my right arm used to ache. not anymore. Should I be worried? is a dermatologist the right person to go to?
