Brief Answer:
Please give details and post actual photographs > see Dermatologist

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, albeit short and specific.

Read the history and understood your concerns.
To recapitulate: Female/56 - splits in abdominal skin - multiple sores - not healing - skin is very thin and bleeds a lot - tried Hydrogen peroxide , hibiclens, opsites. Keflex - wants to know what type of Doctor to see.

You need to see a Dermatologist for clinical evaluation, examination, investigations as would be asked to get a probable diagnosis and proper management.

Please post clear and focused photos as they help for on-the-spot diagnosis in some cases. You can upload/attach them at the reports section

And also give some details:

Since when has this problem started?
Do you have similar lesions on any other parts of body- particularly in mouth?
Any medial disease or disorder like diabetes, colitis/intestinal problems?

Awaiting.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
