See your doctor: This problem can only be solved by seeing your doctor and being evaluated face-to-face.  After a thorough examination, your doctor should be able to tell you what's wrong and what to do about it.

Question 3

i have a red splotch with a red bump in the middle on my thigh, and some smaller red splotches on my lower stomach. what are they?

Accepted Answer

See your doctor.: It is very difficult to diagnose rashes or skin changes without being able to see them. That leaves this format (texting) not a very good method for diagnosis. Your doctor would likely be able to diagnose the problem. Good luck.

Question 4

i notic a large red bump on my lower stomach. it is about the size of a quarter and it is about 1/2 centimeters high. it stings when i touch it. ?

Accepted Answer

Skin infection : Description matches a localized infection. It could be an early abscess. In any case you have to see a medical practitioner to get it tested with a swab culture, and  treated with incision and drainage, and/or antibiotics. In the meantime put warm soaks or compress to help it get to a head. It can spontaneously drain.

Question 6

how do you know if you got a spider bite vs. something else like an ingrown hair or other irritation? my husband got a red bump on his stomach with redness surrounding it.  after a few days it is barely starting to look better. if it was/is a spider bite

Accepted Answer

Hello. : Hello. Many spider bites cause no significant health problems.  I don't know if he had a spider bite. Some spider bites have a black eschar (scab) in the middle and the skin around it is lighter colored (necrotic tissue). I am answering this six days after it was written, so hopefully it has healed by now. If it is red, hot, tender, swollen or purulent  this many days out, then he may have an infection that would benefit from evaluation.

Question 7

experiencing  skin rash (quality: itchiness) on my stomach, chest, back, and my forearms have an odd patch of bumps like a rash. there are some round red circles that have a little dry look. i don't have this on my legs just upper body?

Accepted Answer

Rash: This will need to be visualized and history needs to be taken to assess this. Verbal descriptions just don't do the trick.

Question 8

did blood test almost 3 months ago my veins are inflamed and itchy still all this time on an off taking aleve till it caused stomach upset tried tylenol. today i noticed very small red bump where injection site was. my arms are still hurting a little?

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. The site of blood draw should not be causing issues at 3 months.  It would be prudent to see your doctor. 
Wish you good health!

Question 9

hello. i have a hard red bump and redness around it, slightly painful on my hard palate. i did eat something hot on saturday. what coukd it be?

Accepted Answer

Palate burn: It sounds like you burned the roof of your mouth, and now it is blistered and inflamed. Ibuprofen and a cool icey beverage may help with symptoms. Most burns or mouth ulcers take 7-14 days to heal and can be quite painful. Sometimes doctors write a "magic mouthwash" with topical viscous lidocaine, prednisolone, etc to help with symptoms. See an ENT or primary doctor if symptoms persist.
