All of them need surgery. The first picture is an out-pouching of the subcutaneous tissue ( underlying tissue below the skin which determines the smoothness of our skin or the wrinkles of it) caused by deep scratching or injury on that area. The second one is a severe cellulitis causing vesicle formation caused by a skin infection. And the third one is an abscess formation caused by a deep infection.
Knowing the etiology of the disease determines the treatment. The first one's surgery needs a deeper cut to find the artery supplying it. The second only needs a puncture. And the third one needs the removal of the underlying tumor ( sebaceous cyst).
Now, who would ever think that a person who never went to medical school would know that? Everybody who is not a doctor. Hahahahahahahaha. Self medication all over the world has risen more than 90%. People treat themselves before they go to a doctor with herbal medicines; over the counter antibiotics; potions and salves and whatever their neighbors' expert opinion because they have done it themselves.
Practically speaking, we are going back to the middle ages unless you go to a doctor.
You live and practice in the Middle Ages. The mindset of Filipino's is not likely to change either. Not in your life time.
ReplyDeleteI can still clearly remember the lady who once called you over the station and invited you join their team's community reach out as said but am pretty sure that all the listeners those time knew the real score for that call...a week training...they called themselves a doctor treating and promising to cure the sick with 100% assurance.LOL!
