My shoulder has been like this for months, I’m starting to worry.
I’ll try to be as specific as I can here. I’ve let it be for months because I thought it was just acne but it isn’t healing, some of them used to be pus filled but aren’t anymore because (and yes I know it’s bad) I popped them. Also, idk if this matters but the pus itself isn’t like normal acne pus, it’s strangely congealed in ways I can’t exactly describe. Sometimes they’ll scab over but the scabs will always just fall off when I shower so idk. (Picture taken right after shower) The skin underneath is thin and soft, similar to a fluid filled blister from a burn, and it doesn’t actively bleed or anything as much as ooze to the point where any shirt I wear for more than six hours literally crusts with blood and fluids, I’ve started bandaging it recently because of this and to see if it will help. The shoulder both hurts on the outside because the skin is sensitive and internally if too much pressure is applied, that makes me think there’s more fluid buildup. I know I have bad acne- bad enough that I’m on Accutane but idk if this is acne anymore. I have an appointment with my dermatologist this week but I wanted to also consult the people of the internet for some varying opinions. Thank you all in advance and for even reading all that.

Dad diagnosed rare skin cancer, a couple of questions.
My dad was diagnosed with skin lymphoma today. Around Christmas he got a biopsy, my dad told me the derm said its skin cancer before the biopsy but I wasn't at the appointment but I think he may have been confused, she may have just implied it. Anyway, the biopsy results came back negative, but the derm said she doesn't trust this result and apparently a relatively new nurse did it, so she said she will do it herself this time. I'm grateful she did as long story short today we got the news today it's skin lymphoma. The tissue has been sent to pathology to determine the type and stage of it. I know I shouldn't be posting and just wait until the results but my heads all over the place. Info online on this type of cancer seems much more scarce than the usual types (squamous, basil, melanoma etc.) A MDT is being set up as the derm said even this is a bit out of her expertise. She's also ordered bloods and full body CT scan. My dad 1st noticed in October, 2st pic is at end of December, 2nd is today. Does anyone have any idea what type of skin lymphoma is this and potentially how treatable it is? I know 2 photos no one can make a diagnosis, but if any professionals here could give anymore information on this, I'd appreciate it. My mind's up the wall. Thankyou.

Does this look like normal healing? We have been treating our 4 year olds plantars wart.
My 4 year old daughter is using compound w bandaids to treat a planters wart. It’s been about 3 weeks but it looks gnarly to me. We have tried to file down some of the dead skin but not it just looks like this.

Feeling helpless.
I’m so sick and tired of this mental game, psoriasis has taken over my life and I’m TIRED. I’ve had it for 15 years, my family doctor is “out of options” after prescribing some creams, sent me to a dermatologist who paid zero attention to my concerns, tried upselling her dermatology/cosmetic procedures and after declining them I was dismissed with hearing nothing further. I don’t want to go on biologics.
Has anyone dealt with psoriasis from a more natural “get to the root of the issue”?

I not only have it on my scalp, it’s in my fingernails, spots on my body, and in my belly button which HURTS like hell.
Any help?!

My husband came home from work like this, what could it be?
What could this possibly be? I really don’t want to think it’s anything he got from somewhere or someone. We have a 4 month old too so I want to make sure it’s not contagious.

sudden clusters of whiteheads around mouth. any advice?
i've been getting these whiteheads since the start of 2025 and it happens every time I wear sunscreen and sweat. it only appears around my mouth and nose. my forehead and cheek always stays clear, maybe a hormonal break out every then and there. It is a bit annoying because all my friends and family can wear sunscreen and enjoy the sun.

I went to the general practitioner a few months ago and they put me on doxycycline, an antibacterial medication and up until then, I thought it was a bacterial infection but now I think it may be something a bit more complex because every time I wear sunscreen, doesn't matter which brand, always happens. In my past cases, it wouldn't be as itchy but this time it's super itchy and it's also prickly. I can feel them on my face.

These whiteheads appeared in the matter of 12 hours. My skin was fine last night, I woke up pretty early and suddenly it's everywhere around my nose and mouth.

The sunscreens I've used are -La Roche Posay Anthelios Invisible Fluid Facial Sunscreen -Sun Bum -Neutrogena SPF 50 Ultra Sheer Body Lotion Sunscreen

i'm terrified to test out new sunscreens because it feels like I'm putting my face on the line every time.

any guesses on what this may be will help a lot so I can do some more research on my own time, any advice on how to treat this efficiently or reducing the risk of acne scars will help me so much!

Thanks!!!

Infected wound on lower left left - and starting to feel sick?
I’m notorious for picking at my skin due to anxiety. I thought this was just a simple dry patch or bug bite but it has progressed into this. I started getting a sore throat and a cough yesterday and I’ve been applying neosporin to it but I feel like it hasn’t gotten better or worse. I’m scared of anything worsening and I’m debating whether I need to go to an urgent care or emergency room.
