How Can I Get Medical Attention For A Worsening Skin Issue That I Suspect May Be A Subcutaneous Infection?

I am hoping to speak with a microbiologist today and share a description, ideally, some videos of what has been going on with my skin lately. It s actually been my period about 2 years where certain things of progressed and are no longer ignorable. I ve sought help at the hospital here but when I tried to explain to the doctor what s going on his response to me was, well if it s something that is so small it s hard to see without magnification I guess we probably shouldn t worry about it . Through my own research I m assuming it s some kind of a subcutaneous infection. Regardless of what I think, being a regular citizen I m getting ignored. It s painful and getting worse and it could be infectious. I figured maybe if I have the backing of a microbiologist somebody might actually pay attention.

Hi,

You can meet a dermatologist for the skin issue you are facing. They will come to know whether it is a superficial skin issue or a deeper one below the skin. Routine blood investigations can be added.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Grace, General & Family Physician
