I fell and scraped the palm of my left hand, about the size of a quarter, three days ago. I cleaned it well, wore a bandage and a glove for showering, and later did dishes with a bandage and glove. After removing the glove, I noticed a gooey substance and cleaned it with iodine. Now, I'm worried about a possible red line starting down my arm, wide redness at my wrist, and warmth. I marked it. Are there any pictures to compare?

I broke my right tibia in 2004 and chose not to have surgery; now my knee hurts and seems like my ACL locks up every now and then, very painful when it pops; also the side of my upper thigh hurts, throbbing pain, at bedtime. My ankle feels crooked since it healed. Could improper healing in my tibia be the cause of me having the pain in my thigh and knee?

Is there any hospital or healthcare provider that provides free medical help to someone who cannot work due to medical problems, especially when Medicaid and other resources have been exhausted?

I have a rash-like, itchy area above my ankle that is very irritating and will bleed if I scratch hard. The skin is very dry. I have been to a dermatologist who did a biopsy and said it is from poor circulation and he could not do anything. What type of doctor should I consult with next?
