Wound

Hello!!! I took this antibiotics for a wound that was stitched of which it opened again basically they didn't stitched me professionally at the hospital,is it possible to stitched it again cz some doctors told me its not possible to do it again. ## Whether or not it is impossible depends on the wound itself, some can be, unless the edges have torn, or they are seriously infected. What antibiotic did you take and did you finish all of it? The U.S. FDA lists the typical antibiotic side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash, and diarrhea.

Hi? My name is Madie. I have burn marks in my both forearms since 5 yrs ago. I've been treating it ever since. It has healed but on my right forearm I still have an open cut n its oozing puss n time to time it hurts me n it gets swollen. I assume it could be infected. Could this medicine work for me n for how many hours I should take it? Every six hours or every eight hours. I have taken Keflex before for other things. ## Madie, please consult your doctor, if you have an open wound that is causing issues that long after it happened, then you may need some special treatments for it, which could include IV antibiotics. They should do a tissue culture. to discover the type of bacteria, so they can prescribe that appropriate antibiotics to eradicate it. Ref: Infection Information It is ...

Can I use ibunate to help with pain and swelling after circumcision? I also have an infection. Will it be effective when used in conjunction with amoxicillin? Thanks. ## Yes, there is a chance it could help, but you should only take it, if your doctor approves. The NIH lists the typical side effects for these medications as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach irritation, diarrhea, and increased risk of bleeding. How are you doing, now? Has there been any change?

Are Terrasil Capsules available to heal wounds ## Are there Terrasil Capsules To Heal warts from the inside out, if so can you let me know? Thank you... ## Terrasil is an over the counter product containing a silver and oxygen complex.

My hand has been cut by a mirror and the doctor told me that this antibiotic would be helpful. I have taken the medicine for 5 days but it didn't work. Kindly tell me which medicine I should take to recover from my pain and a gap of skin in the hand? ## What were you expecting this medication to do? It is an antibiotic that is used to treat, or prevent bacterial infections. The NIH lists its typical side effects as possibly including diarrhea, nausea, dizziness, headache, and non-allergic skin rash. However, it is not going to help the cut heal any faster than usual. Are you on any other medications?

My wound is on my forearm & is about a 1 1/2” square. The skin is eroded and indented. Was told to use Neosphorin, keep covered & change bandages twice daily. Does this sound like good advice? ## This procedure is often advised for some types of wounds, but it depends on the severity, cause of the wound, and etc. Neosporin has been known to cause some skin reddening, rash, and itching, as side effects, in some people that use it. What has your doctor advised you to do?

I suffered 4 puncture wounds to my middle finger from being bitten by a Pit Bull a couple days ago. Since the pit was going after my beagle puppy and I knew the pit would kill him, I slipped my hand under the pit bull's collar. He pulled me onto my back and bit my hand. I was screaming, but still holding onto his collar My black lab, Lucy has never fought but she is very loyal and protective of me. Prior to this incident, the only thing she attacked because she perceived it as a threat to me, was the weed eater. But she jumped the Pit Bull and wasn't about to give up the fight till she knew I was okay. I was at the bottom of this dog pile and had no idea what kind of injuries Lucy was sustaining. Long story short, my left hand has 4 punctures and is very swollen, purplish in col...

looking for the name of an old-fashioned sulfur-based liquid for treating wounds. It is BRIGHT yellow, thick and oily. It separates into the oil and yellow part if left standing and has to be shaken well before use. Used to use it extensively for animals although it is not specifically a veterinary medicine. I bought some in a pharmacy a few years ago. It is used on any difficult to heal or infected wounds either under a dressing or just on and in the wound. It is not Betadine or any other similar modern product. This is an old product that is still available. It is a proper medical product produced by a medical company i.e. not a herbal, quack or traditional remedy. It is just an older product that isn't much used any more but still available. I'm trying to suggest it to a wildlif

i was woundering if the suboxen withh 155 on one side and half moon on other are any stronger than the origanal suboxen ## Hello, Bryan! How are you? I'm not sure exactly what you mean, since you didn't mention a dosage or anything. Can you please post back and clarify? Thank you! The one with the marking you mentioned contains 8mgs of Buprenorphine and 2mgs of Naloxone. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Learn more Suboxone details here.

Nonhealing wound.. Dr has prescribed Clavam 625 for 5 days 3 capsules per day along with Omez 1 capsule per day. The wound is there for last several months. it is at awkward place at seat of the body near rectum. Pls confirm if the medication prescribed is OK and What precautions need to be taken to avoid any side effects? Patient paraplegic confined to wheelchair ## There is really no way to avoid side effects, if they're going to happen, they're going to happen. Sometimes taking something with food can help prevent some nausea, but that's about it. This is an antibiotic that's used to treat infections and many times that's what has caused these types of sores. Its normal side effects may include nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Learn more Cla...

Woundering lve been taking ampicilina to treat eye infefection. What is best thing l should be taking ? ## No one but you and your doctor are going to know what's best for YOU, even if that something works well for other people. Ampicilina (Ampicillin) however, is readily used for the treatment of eye infections. You'd just have to ask your doctor about the right dosage and form of ingestion (eye drops vs oral tablets) for this treatment. It can help the eye infection heal quicker than without it. It can also keep an infection away that keeps coming back. If you develop an infection in your eye or your eyes, you may also be prescribed Amoxicillin antibiotics for eyes (as a first line of treatment). It comes in the form of eye drops. I personally don't know if Amoxicillin wor...

debridement ointment ## I have a large wound on my left ankle. It started out as pressure ulcer and I was using hydrocortizone for the itching. I did not know that the cortizone would make my skin there very tender and at one point when I was washing a large patch of skin came off, so now I have a small patch of a wound. I am using Staphaseptic for the wound and a natural cream for the itching. It is healing slowly and there is some dead skin that needs to be removed. Is there an over the counter debraidment ointment to help get rid of the dead skin?? Thank, Bob ## I am 75 yrs old. I have Sakram troma. I have had 3 surgaries so far because of recurrence.

Big wound after surgary: Sakram troma surgary for the 3rd time ## There really is no honest way to determine what drug is best for you. Doctors themselves don't even know how a specific medication is going to effect you until after you've taken it for some time and can make a proper judgement call based on how you feel or whatever side effects present themselves. Personally, I would suggest opting for whatever medication your doctor or surgeon recommends and then you can give them feedback on how it may be working for you. Often times, you can switch medications or seek out natural alternatives online if it doesn't appear to be working in your favor. I hope this advice helps!
