I'm dealing with a weird ulcer on my scrotum that's been there for about two weeks now. At first, it was really painful, and I thought it might be something like a baltod. Plus, there was this discomfort in my groin where my thigh and abdomen meet. In the second week, the blister turned more into a lump with some yellow discharge, but now that discharge is gone, and so is the top layer of skin. What could be going on? Should I be concerned about this?

To help with the pain and promote healing, you can use an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin or Bacitracin on the ulcer. Additionally, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like ibuprofen to help with the discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.

I've been taking doxycycline and lactic acid bacillus capsules for acne, 100 mg daily for a month now. But every time I take them, I get really dizzy and feel super weak. The nausea gets pretty bad, and I often have to lie down right away. Is this the right dosage for me? It doesnt seem normal to feel like this. What should I do?

Discuss these side effects with your prescribing doctor. In the meantime, you can try taking doxycycline with food to see if it helps reduce nausea. If the symptoms persist, your doctor may consider adjusting the dosage or switching to a different medication.

I'm really worried because while frying some snacks, the pan burst and hot oil splashed all over my wife's hands. She's ended up with burn injuries, and I'm not sure what the best treatment would be for the degree of burns she has. Could you guide us on how to care for this at home or if we need to see a specialist?

- For a mild burn (first-degree), rinse with cool water for 10-15 minutes and apply a soothing lotion. For moderate burns (second-degree), cover with a clean, non-stick bandage and seek medical attention immediately. If the burn is severe (third-degree),
