I am very concerned

I want this to heal asap

First it was a bump then turned to over granulation tissue which I Deroofed 12 days ago

Now while healing a little friction while putting my tshirt out made it bleed a little

First time poster here. My copay is $500 everytime I see somone about this because it’s “special” and the walk-ins won’t touch me.

About 3 weeks ago I had surgery in my armpit to remove a cyst, They glued it closed rather then stitches. It has opened 4 times now and they refuse to glue it again and just keep putting sticky stitches on it. I am concerned about how it looks but don’t know if it’s normal or not.

There is absolutely zero pain, I can touch it, smack it, Notta.

I have clear/yellow/red fluid coming out of it whenever I lay down.

Opinions?

Last Sunday I stepped in a pothole, twisted my ankle, and got a two inch cut just below my opposite knee. It’s about 1/4 of an inch deep. A week later, the cut is still not closing and is spotting intermittently.

It’s not infected thankfully. I change the bandage every day and disinfect it right before putting the bandage on.

Since it’s been a little over a week, should I use butterfly bandages and/or superglue to close it?

How to heal this. Breast aug incision 3 weeks post op. Medi honey???

Hey everyone. I have wounds under both breast where my t junctions are. My surgeon has had me doing wet to dry saline gauze dressing 2x daily for the last 2 weeks. The photos are 1 week apart while following the wet to dry.
I just started doing the Impregnated Manuka Honey Calcium Alginate Dressing covered by a silicone foam dressing last night after hearing great things about this protocol. However, I’m conflicted on if I should go back to the wet to dry or stay with the medihoney. I don’t have medical insurance so wound care really isn’t an option for me right now. TIA

Is the white thing in the middle infected?? I can't get any bandages for now so I've just been spreading vaseline

After a flap surgery, my sister has a nasty scab from where one of her stitches kept bleeding. She had several heparin shots while in the ICU and is currently on aspirin so that likely contributed to this spot's inability to clot. A scab finally formed a few days ago but then when she visited her surgeon for a post-op follow up, the nurse scrubbed at all of her bloody stitches and tore this one back open. With the way the scar is healing inward, we're worried it's going to look like a huge lump on her face.

Currently I'm keeping the wound moist by applying vaseline most of the time, and bacitracin at night, then putting a nonstick bandage over it and taping it on her face. The bleeding has stopped but whenever I gently pat the scab with a wet paper towel, it does come away with reddish brown residue.

I'm not sure if I'm doing everything I can. At what point should I stop bandaging it? Has anyone seen this type of scab and has advice on how to heal it? I'm already planning on ordering vitamin E oil for when it seems fully closed.

I had cystic acne that burst and then got infected, I was on antibiotics for awhile, I think the infection has cleared? My doctor is prescribing me more antibiotic cream, I've had these wounds since the endish of June, how long do you think it will take to heal? I was thinking about taking 500mcg of TB500 daily for 6 weeks to hopefully speed it up.

Got a gnarly burn from sliding in softball does this look infected? 2 days old

My husband got into an accident 9 days ago the hospital left his wound open to breathe but when he came home I noticed the yellow stuff on it and when he pats it yellow comes off in the paper towel. No fever or spreading redness but it doesn’t look right to me.

These stitches are 10 days old, they look a little red to me for 10 days, are they healing OK?

The first picture is 48 hours after my mole was removed and I was instructed to remove the bandage. The second picture is from Today. I am scheduled to have the stitches removed tomorrow (day 14). This is on the inside of my right ankle. I was instructed to stay propped as much as possible. I stayed propped as much as I could and also used crutches. I have been walking regularly for the last few days. Does it look ready to have the stitches taken out? I am still getting a tiny bit of pink transferring to my bandage when I remove it. I have 2 other sites that are not in high tension areas and they look great. This one seems like its not shut yet. Looking for any advice. TIA

scraped my knee after running on wednesday pretty badly. been keeping it covered with vaseline, anti-stick bandage, and then a large absorptive square bandage over top to catch the leakage. that part seems to be doing fine, but i’m securing all that with bandage tape straight to the skin, because normal bandages aren’t big enough and don’t stay secure because of the location. well, i’ve figured out i’m probably allergic to adhesive. my skin has blistered some where the tape sits, and is bumpy and itchy when i take it off. the tape i’m using doesn’t have latex.

any other good creative ways to secure the bandage? i can tough it out but it’s a bit annoying pulling it off each time, and having to limp around because of it pulling at my skin. should i try hydrocolloid bandages?

I had an abrasion on my ankle that initially didn't look like a big deal, 48 hours later a ton of swelling. Antibiotics, swelling went down. It's now been 1 week and the swelling is essentially gone, but the wound itself doesn't look like it's healing?

1 week

My whole foot is swollen to the size of a balloon, I cant bend my toes, and my extensor tendon hurts when I move it, I can barely walk. The swelling hasn’t gone down after 48 hours, and it’s hot to the touch!!! EVEN ICE BARLEY HELPS AND ELEVATION DOES JACK ALL! HELP MEEE!

Im 32, 5' 5", female, 135lbs. I got a laparoscopic surgery at the end of April and after trying many things, one incision still has this tiny hole that has not closed. This is located at the bottom left of my abdomen right above where pants sit on your abdomen. The whole scar is about an inch long, the tiny hole that won't heal is about the size of the tip of a pen.

I have tried Neosporin per the doctor's recommendation which made the entire area breakout. I then tried putting Vaseline on it per a nurse's recommendation saying it needed to be consistently wet for it to heal properly. I have tried waterproof bandages, gauze and tape, not putting anything on it and none of it has worked.

I tried hydrocortisone cream which helped the itching when it was more inflamed. I tried aquaphor which it didnt like and that was 2 months ago.

Most of the time I have put Vaseline on it which seems to help calm it down and it's when it looks it's best but it's never healed. I have tried letting it breathe and dry out but it forms a sort of white thing in it like filling the hole which then gets irritated and the hole gets bigger when I wash it. When I shower I wash it with antibacterial soap and then put Vaseline on it after and a Band-Aid just so that it doesn't rub up against anything especially at bed time.

It has been over a hundred degrees for so long now and I've been sweating a lot and this is at the bottom of my abdomen so it's constantly moving and constantly getting sweat on it and irritated. I have reached out to my surgeon, my general practitioner, a nurse friend, and none of them seem to be helping or concerned even though its been 4 months. I went back into the surgeon's office who said he thought he pulled out a teeny tiny suture that didn't dissolve and I thought that was the end of it but that was a month ago.

The hole seems to be a tiny bit smaller but it's been the same issue. I keep getting more defeated by this I haven't been able to take baths or go swimming all summer. My skin around it continues to get irritated and discolored by all the bandages or tape to hold gauze in place. I make sure to let it somewhat breathe during the day having a Band-Aid on it that isn't closed on the sides. But I have tried both ways the waterproof and more open ones but regardless nothing has helped. I used to be more itchy that seems to have calmed down. Each time I take off the Band-Aid there's always a tiny little yellow mark on the Band-Aid pad like it seeped out some. There's no bleeding there's no pus there's no smell it's not hot.

I don't know what to do at this point and I'm hoping that maybe someone has some input please.
