I noticed a long, flat boil/lump about 4 cm in size on my pubic area around 10 days ago. At the same time, I had lower abdominal pain on the same side for about 3 days, which resolved on its own. I used warm compresses for a few minutes over 2 days, after which the lump drained spontaneously and reduced significantly in size. It is now much smaller than it was initially.
The area where the lump has reduced has left a dark mark, which is slightly itchy only when touched. I currently have no pain, redness, warmth, swelling, or fever, and I have not felt unwell at any point.
Should I have the remaining lump examined by a doctor, or is it reasonable to leave it alone and allow it to resolve on its own?

Hi Doctor,
I have open pores on my cheeks and nose, tiny bumps on my forehead, and mild perioral pigmentation. My skin currently looks dull and I am also looking to improve overall skin brightness and glow.
My current skincare products:
Derma Co 1% Salicylic Acid gel Face Wash with salicyclic acid and witch haze for active acne
Ponds super light gel oil free moisturizer with the hyaluronic acid and vitamin e hydrate skin non sticky
Dr. Sheth's Ceramide & Vitamin C Sunscreen SPF 50+ PA++++, Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB Protection, In-Vivo tested, Lightweight, No White Cast, Reduces tan
Please guide me on a daily routine and suitable ingredients (like Vitamin C, Niacinamide, or Alpha Arbutin) for skin brightening and refining pores.
Hello, I am having boils on the upper thighs.
Three years back, I had shingal infections. Presently, I am having treatment for Rosacea. Yesterday, I applied HHSONE.
I have suddenly developed multiple small pimples/bumps on both cheeks. I normally don't get acne. They appeared recently and some are slightly inflamed. Could you please tell me whether this looks like acne, clogged pores, irritation or folliculitis, and what treatment/routine I should follow?
