My bandage with dressing is stuck to my burn and I can't get it off. I tried soaking it in cool water, but it won't come off and it hurts too much to peel it. What should I do?

If I have no pain, can eat and drink normally, and have normal stools, do I still have acute pancreatitis? Additionally, if I had recurrent acute pancreatitis treated with a stent, is it possible to only have pancreatitis once in a lifetime? Will I always need to worry about it coming back, and will this affect me for my whole life? Can I lead a normal life, eat normally, and drink a minimal amount of alcohol, or should alcohol still be avoided? If a stent opened my pancreatic duct, is it still considered damaged or healthy now that it has returned to normal size and is no longer enlarged?

I have white lines on both of my big toenails. Could these be signs of systemic diseases like liver or kidney disease, or are they just from trauma or fungal infection? Additionally, are the ridges on my toenails indicative of something serious like Beau's lines, or are they just a result of aging?

I closed my finger in a door and want to know if I should get it drained. The finger is very sensitive to the touch, throbbing, and swollen under the nail. It hurts when stretched out.
