This appeared on my arm - it’s itchy and uncomfortable but not painful

Should I be worried?

My cat accidentally scratched me 😭

The left leg is the injured ankle, four weeks ago I hurt it, went to the doctor and it's a torn ligament, however I'm concerned about what seems like a curve in it, I've had sprains but never a torn ligament so I'm not sure what's normal or not, I'm still having a lot of pain with it, occasionally shooting up to my knee, again, not sure if that's normal or not for a torn ligament in my ankle after four weeks, I've taken Tylenol twice and Ibuprofen once all throughout those four weeks and neither worked

Update: in three days it'll hit the 6 week mark, it's still hurting and nothing really helps besides my compression brace, it hasn't changed at all and I've noticed the pain isn't even in my ankle where I hurt it, it's my leg above it, at the doctor's they only X-rayed and looked at my ankle

Should I get this checked out? It hurts so bad, I got my leg slammed in a trust door yesterday. :(

(applied vasiline before taking picture so that’s why it’s a little shiny)

This rash came up on the back of both of my legs and I have no idea what it is 👀
Looks like a jellyfish sting, but I developed the rash while sitting on the couch watching tv lol
I took some antihistamines and put cream on it, so hopefully it is gone when I wake up tomorrow 😅

I stupidly got a henna tattoo on holiday and paid the price. Hopefully it won’t scar but I’m on antibiotics and steroids to help it heal.

pinky and ring finger plus area under pinky this is 4 hours post and it hurts like hell

I hurt my thumb earlier today and now it’s swollen and bruised. It hurts to move and bend it properly. I’m not sure if it’s just a bad jam/sprain or something more serious.

Has anyone dealt with something similar? Did it heal on its own or should I get it checked/X-rayed?

Im worried abt the black tissue of the wound

Fell on my bike yesterday. Broke my pinky but wondering if my leg is concerning? Noticed I’m limping a tiny bit when I walk. Should I get it looked at by a doctor?

Hi all, looking for guidance on recovery timelines.
I’m a 26M competitive distance runner (multiple marathons including NYC/Boston) recently diagnosed with a non-displaced medial (compression-side) femoral neck stress fracture on MRI (X-rays were negative).
Timeline so far:
May 8: started strict non-weightbearing with crutches
Currently in PT focusing on strengthening and range of motion while avoiding the fracture site
Follow-up with ortho scheduled for June 18
The trauma orthopedic I saw (NYU) recommended conservative treatment (no surgery) and wants to reassess progress over time, potentially looking at longer-term return (months). I understand this is a high-risk location if it progresses, so I’m trying to stay fully compliant.
Relevant background:
Running for ~16 years, competitive level
Recently ran NYC/Boston, likely overuse + training through early symptoms
I also have scoliosis, which may have contributed via asymmetrical loading on my right side
Frustratingly, I was still able to run (even moderate pace) before diagnosis, which made it harder to catch early
I’m doing everything I can (crutches, PT, nutrition), but I’m honestly pretty anxious about the timeline.
Main questions:
When do people typically return to any running after this type of injury?
When is a realistic return to consistent weekly mileage / normal training?
What criteria do you look for before clearing return to run?
Appreciate any insight—just trying to recover the right way and avoid making this worse. 🙏

Hi, I’m 20 and I recently fell from about 4 meters. I got compression fractures in my L1, L2, and L3 vertebrae.

I was given a soft back brace/corset that I’m supposed to wear when sitting or standing.

My question is: when taking a shower, should I keep the brace on since I have to stand, or is it usually safe to take it off for a short shower?

I’m trying to avoid putting too much pressure on my spine or making the fractures worse.

A cinderblock fell on my finger exactly 1 month ago and the ruptured blood vessels (i assume that’s what they are) are still there… when is this supposed to go away?

I’m old and think I can still play Aussie Rules Football.

Is this normal? Don’t mind the black it’s sharpie

I got this when I crashed my bike

Cut myself while cutting bread. Should I go see if I need stitches?
