Asked for Female, 22

I am a 22 year old sexually inactive lady. I get brownish discharge from my vagina, sometimes non-foul thick whitish discharge as well. My recent problem however is the appearance of bumps on my mons pubis. I initial thought it was shaving bumps but more painful ones are developing. I started using aloe Vera and vitamin c oil to moisturize, the appearance has gotten better, but the bumps are still there. What can I do?

Answered on 13th Nov '24

There is a possibility that you had mid-pubic hair ingrown or folliculitis. These could arise from shaving or continuous rubbing against the garment. The brownish, and whitish discharge is probably the result of a different condition. To treat the bumps, you can use warm compresses and stop shaving until they improve. You should see a dermatologist if they last for a long time or if they become worse.

Hi i am facing hair fall problem can i take keraboots tablet

Answered on 12th Nov '24

Hair loss is a big problem for many people and the causes can be different like stress, bad nutrition, or hormonal imbalance. Keraboots tablets potentially can mitigate your hair fall issue as they are filled with the vitamins you are missing out on.

If the problem still does not go away, it is wise to talk to a dermatologist for more guidance.

Asked for Male, 18

I am a 18 year old male. I used my friends derma roller . And now I am anxious if I can get hiv from it although he doesn't have hiv. The roller was disinfected before I used it with spray alcohol.

Answered on 11th Nov '24

It is safe to use a friend's derma roller after disinfection if it has been sprayed with alcohol. HIV is a sexual infection; sharing needles is one of the transmitter. A sterilized roller is thus no cause of fear or stress if someone else has got HIV. Such sterilized tools do not risk transmitting HIV.

This could be due to contact with an allergen like a chemical or plant. Using Clobenate GM might not be the only solution. It’s a good idea to stop using Boroline and consult your dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan. Avoid scratching to prevent the condition from worsening.

Hi there, my partner and I had a lot of rough sex in a small period of time. I now have a small split below my vulva and a lot of small friction burns around it. I now have a lot of small bumps around my vulva and inside of the flaps that sting and are white on top. I also shaved the area on the same day. Are the bumps from the friction burns?

Answered on 23rd Sept '24

The small bumps and stinging could be due to the friction burns from rough sex in a short time. It is the fact that the skin gets too much rubbing causing such burns. Shaving may have also contributed to it getting worse on the same day. Try applying a mild, fragrance-free cream or ointment to the sore area to calm it down. Do not rub or irritate it more. It will also heal better if you wear loose-fitting clothes. You may see a dermatologist if it doesn’t get better or worsens.

Also if I pull the skin on the side of the ingrown toe part away, pus will kinda leak out a bit. And as of today, its hurting to walk. If i even bump the top of my toe, i get searing pain in my toe. And as of right now, my foot and calf have this kind of ache-y pain.

Answered on 11th Sept '24

The swelling, redness, and pus leakage plus pain are the symptoms of infected. The infection might get worse if no treatment is done. The pain and the ache in your foot and calf might be caused by the spreading of the infection. You have to see a dermatologist. They could recommend antibiotics or surgery to take away the ingrown toenail.

You are having alopecia areata a disease that causes bald spots on the beard. The situation is not life-threatening but it can be quite annoying. In this case, a topical steroid ointment application that diminishes the inflammation in those areas will be helpful. Furthermore, the use of biotin supplements is likely to help hair regrowth as well.

If a dog happens to cut your skin, it can be the start of an infection. The wound should be washed with soap and water to clean it thoroughly.

Answered on 3rd Sept '24

You may be experiencing a viral fever with a skin rash, a condition known as viral exanthem. The leg pain, swelling, and difficulty walking could indicate inflammation in your joints, which is referred to as viral arthritis. These symptoms are often associated with viral infections like dengue or chikungunya. I recommend getting plenty of rest, staying hydrated, and using over-the-counter pain relievers for relief. If your symptoms worsen or persist for an extended period, it's important to consult a dermatologist.

Answered on 3rd Sept '24

Answered on 3rd Sept '24

You might have a condition called balanitis. Balanitis is when the head of the penis gets itchy and irritated. Small red spots can appear and will then go away on their own. One reason this might happen is improper washing, which can lead to irritation from certain soaps, laundry detergents, or a yeast infection. You should keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting underwear, and avoid using harsh products. If the symptoms do not improve, talk to a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Pimple marks are small bumps that can be red, swollen, or have pus, the pinky-gray of the skin. These things are generated when the pores become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Pimple marks are dark or red spots left behind after a pimple goes away.

A wart is growing on your finger. Warts are produced by a virus that can be transmitted from person to person. They can be uncomfortable and have a skin-like look. Although colloidal silver gel might be helpful, it may not be sufficient for complete healing. I suggest consulting a dermatologist who will prescribe you the appropriate treatment. The removal of warts can be done by different methods such as freezing or applying special creams.

It has healed but there are small dots around it like on the right arm.I did not take any medicine for this. I used a powder for sweat rashes on my neck. It seems to me that this has something to do with it.

Answered on 28th Aug '24

The black spot with the tiny dots around it you are describing may be a mole or a freckle. The dots that are near the cut that is healed might be either scars or pigmentation changes. The powder that you use for your sweat rashes on your neck may not be the main cause of these spots. However, it is still important to keep the area clean and moisturized. It is better to see a dermatologist if the problem worsens or you are noticing more changes.

Any mild product's recommendation that gives good results?

Answered on 25th Sept '24

If you have mild skin breakouts, like small pimples or redness, you can try using a product with benzoyl peroxide. These breakouts often occur when dirt and oil clog your pores, leading to bacteria that cause pimples. Benzoyl peroxide helps kill this bacteria and heal the pimples. Make sure to wash your face thoroughly before applying the product as directed on the label. If you experience dryness, it might be due to benzoyl peroxide, so it's a good idea to apply a moisturizer after the treatment.

If it is true that you have external hemorrhoids, then it means those swollen blood vessels around your back passage are the ones to blame. They may be harmless, but you feel that a bulging mass. This could be the case as well due to straining when having a bowel movement, pregnancy, or sitting in one position for a long time. To make your pain less severe, you can use the medication for hemorrhoids which you can buy without a prescription, or use ointments such as Preparation H.

40 year old female shaved and used a cucumber baby wipe been itching every since 2 weeks now

Answered on 8th June '24

The cucumber baby wipe might have reacted with your skin causing the itch. This means the itch can be as a result of irritation or an allergy. To calm the itch down, try using a mild moisturizer that does not contain perfume. Stop using any more products on the affected area for now. If the itchiness continues or becomes worse, it would be best to see a dermatologist.

My hair is very thin and less volume how to increase my hair volume and thickness

Answered on 10th June '24

If a person’s hair is too light and flat, maybe that’s how they’re born or they age, they have bad diet or style it too much. When hair becomes thin it could fall off in some areas leading to baldness. Eat a variety of foods with proteins, vitamins minerals in order to make hair thicker and increase its volume. Don’t use heat tools or strong chemicals on your hair, apply softening shampoos and conditioners then dry gently. Seek advice from a dermatologist who can give you specific instructions.

Excessive persistent itching throughout your body can become very irritating. It may worsen due to dry skin especially after a drug like Oratane. Sometimes the cause of itching could be allergies or skin conditions. Make sure to use mild creams that will keep your skin moist and avoid taking hot showers. You may have to see a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

Asked for Female, 18

I am an 18 year old iam female I got pimples on right and left side of face up to jaw line why it is? Can I send you picture

Answered on 10th June '24

You’re having breakouts on both sides of your face down to your jawline. This is called acne, and it’s very common for people your age. If a person gets acne, it is because their hair follicles are plugged with oil and dead skin cells. When a person reaches puberty, their body releases hormones that can cause this to happen. To improve your condition, you can wash your face with a mild soap and try not to touch it too often. If it bothers you a lot, you should go see a dermatologist who might suggest using some ointments or drugs that are put on the skin (topical).

This happens when your body fights infection. Inflammation is indicated by the tenderness and pain. The pain moving to the collarbone could mean that the infection is spreading. It is important to get checked by a dermatologist so that they can find out what exactly is causing it. They might prescribe antibiotics if it’s because of an infection.

Hi ,iam Harshith Reddy J Iam suffering from pimples I have consulted a doctor near me and he said me to use the BETNOVATE-N skin cream iam using it but no use of it so please tell the solution for this pimples

Answered on 5th July '24

Pimples are often caused by clogged pores, excess oil production, bacteria and hormones. Using Betnovate-N cream may not be the best option for treating pimples because it contains steroids that can worsen acne in the long run. Instead, you can try gentle cleansers, non-comedogenic moisturizers, and benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Remember, consistency is key when treating pimples. If your pimples persist, it’s best to consult a dermatologist for tailored advice.

Asked for Male, 14

Iam getting pimples on my face iam using BETAMETHASONE VALERATE AND NEOMUCIN SKIN CREAM. BETNOVATE-N

Answered on 30th Oct '24

You should think twice about using BETAMETHASONE VALERATE AND NEOMUCIN SKIN CREAM (BETNOVATE-N) for this. Although these ointments contain corticosteroids, which are known for reducing inflammation, they can exacerbate your acne in the long run because of steroid-induced rosacea or any other reason. Pores get blocked with oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells, forming pimples. To bring your skin back to normal, it would be wise to use a mild cleanser and an oil-free moisturizer. More importantly, avoid touching them at all costs.

You’re dealing with might be penile bruises. These are essentially red marks that appear on the tip of your penis after you get an erection and then fade away within a few days. This kind of thing is pretty common and usually not something to worry about. Sometimes they can be caused by rough handling or friction during certain activities. I’d suggest being a bit more careful and seeing if that helps at all. If they keep happening or you’re concerned, it might be a good idea to bring it up with a dermatologist.

Stress is a common cause of these types of sores, but they can also be brought on by accidentally biting your mouth or eating certain foods. To keep them from forming, it is important to try and reduce stress as much as possible while staying away from anything spicy or acidic that may irritate the area more. Good oral hygiene will help prevent future outbreaks. Over-the-counter gels are available at most stores, which will numb the pain temporarily and speed up healing times. If none of this works or if they won’t seem to go away then please see a dermatologist/dentist for further assistance.

Itching all over the body with rashes, dark patches, and pigmentation could be due to several reasons including allergies, skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis, and hormonal imbalances. I see you have used drugs but sometimes it is necessary for one to get a clear understanding for effective treatment. Therefore, I would advise that she gets referred to an expert such as an allergist or dermatologist who will conduct more tests maybe even skin biopsies or blood works so that they can be able to identify the cause exactly. After which they can then give her specific treatments meant for that condition which will help reduce the signs.

It seems that what you are going through may likely be hyperpigmentation from inflammation.

Small mark on tip of penis. Almost like a pimple, becomes inflamed sometimes and turns red.

It seems you might have an issue such as balanitis, a common and naturally occurring thing among men. It can be seen in a small mole-like structure on the tip of the penis that is occasionally pus-filled, and it could get inflamed and red. It could also be connected with the frequency of penis washing, or it could even be traced back to some personal hygiene habits or yet another significant thing like any irritability that might be caused by soap or disinfectant. Frequent washing and drying of the area are key to a better outcome. The application of mild soaps and the avoidance of harsh chemicals are also helpful strategies. Wearing comfortable, breathable clothes and underwear made of cotton is also good. Wear only loose-fitting clothing and wear underwear made of soft, comfy cotton. When all else fails after a week or two and the results don't get better, it is a good time to see a dermatologist, possibly for further evaluation or to control the underlying issue.

I am a 17 year old girl, recently I noticed some white small point sized or slightly bigger patches on my hips. I don't know what to do, but I'm afraid this might be some big disease.

Answered on 23rd May '24

It might be a common skin condition called pityriasis alba. This isn't something to worry about. Pityriasis alba can lead to pale patches on the skin, mainly on the face, neck, and arms. You can see them better in summer when your skin is darker. Dryness is what makes the skin turn lighter than it’s supposed to be, the reason for this happening is mostly because of dryness. You might also want to consider moisturizing your skin more often with lotion, or drinking plenty of water helps too. If there is no change after doing all these things then go to a dermatologist who will advise on treatment methods for this condition.

Gently wash your face twice daily with a mild cleanser, avoiding squeezing pimples. Try over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid acne treatments. Drink lots of water. Eat a balanced diet for healthy skin. If acne persists, consult a dermatologist for guidance.

Answered on 26th Sept '24

Pimples often appear on the chin area when skin pores get blocked. Obstructed pores trap excess oil and dead cells. Red bumps, whiteheads, and blackheads form. Hormones, stress, and certain foods contribute. Gently wash your face twice daily. Don't squeeze pimples. Use benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid products. Eat nutritious foods, and drink adequate water. These steps can improve acne on your chin.

Excessive hair shedding for an extended period can understandably cause distress. Having ruled out deficiencies through blood tests is a positive step. However, your Vitamin D deficiency may contribute to hair loss. Utilizing minoxidil topically could help, but oral minoxidil carries potential risks like low blood pressure and heart palpitations. Before initiating any new medication, I advise discussing the possibility of oral minoxidil with a dermatologist to carefully evaluate the pros and cons. Making an informed decision after considering all factors is crucial.

You seem to have eczema, a common skin issue. It causes itchy red rashes resembling pimples everywhere. Things like allergies, dry skin, or stress can trigger eczema's flare-ups. Gently cleansing with fragrance-free products and moisturizing regularly may soothe these rashes. However, scratching affected areas risks infection, so avoid that.

You're experiencing a combination of symptoms that could be related to an underlying health issue. Persistent fever, cold, weakness, and significant hair loss over several months can sometimes point to problems like nutritional deficiencies, thyroid issues, or even an infection. It's important to consult a general physician or an endocrinologist who can evaluate your symptoms properly and suggest the right treatment.

I have too many blemishes on my face

Answered on 1st Aug '24

Blemishes can be frustrating, yet they're normal and treatable. Spots or tiny bumps on the skin are classified as blemishes. Clogged pores, bacteria, or hormone fluctuations might cause these. Gently cleansing your face regularly helps. Applying benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid products could improve things. However, avoid popping or squeezing blemishes to prevent scars. If the issue persists, consult a dermatologist for guidance.

I applied a lotion in my chest and also in upper legs but unfortunately it also get applied on my scrotum after my scrotum started itching, buring and next day it started peeling

The lotion triggered an irritation in your scrotum area, it seems. Itching, burning sensation, and peeling skin often indicate skin irritation. That delicate region's skin may have reacted adversely to the lotion's ingredients. As a treatment, use lukewarm water and mild soap to gently cleanse the affected area. Avoid applying that lotion there again. However, if symptoms linger, consult a dermatologist promptly.

Apart from that micro-needling or micro-needling radiofrequency, CO2 Laser are better options than just dermabrasion though microdermabrasion might have little effect on open pores.

I have oily skin and acne problem. The problem is that scars are not removed completely. Some are getting light but not removed completely. I recently heard about microdermabrasion for acne scars from one of my friends. Does it really work? I am 23 now. Does it have any side effects?

Answered on 23rd May '24

If you have oily skin and acne problem, sometimes if acne is severe they might burst or get infected or if you pick your acne too much they might result into scars. As per Dermatologist there are 5 types of scars which are commonly encountered.
1. Ice Picks Scars: Very small in surface but deep and narrow below.
2. Roll-Over Scars: Wide but borders are difficult to appreciate
3. Box-car Scars: wide and borders can be easily appreciated.
4. Open pores like Scars: Small Ice Pick Scars
5. Hyper-trophic Scars:
so the treatment for the scars depends upon the type of scars. Commonly treatment which are effective are TCA cross, subsition treatment, microneedling, microneedling radiofrequency, PRP treatment, CO2 Laser, RBM Glass laser and even dermal fillers.
As you are 23 and you are asking about microdermabrasion, it removes superficial skin layers and it is effective only for superficial scars which are not very deep. This might require you multiple sessions like 8-10 sessions for it to work. Instead of Microdermabrasion you can go for microneedling, microneedling radiofrequency which will require less number of sessions and on top of it you can add PRP to it.

I am 25-year-old man I am at level 2 baldness now. I am facing severe hair loss since the age of 23. I have already tried medication and other treatments, none of them has really helped me. I am thinking of doing hair transplant, would it help me and what which type of treatment should I go for?

Answered on 23rd May '24

Hair transplant is not permanent cure for hair loss. Once the hair loss is started, it will progress gradually from front to back or from center to sides. So even if you are getting your hair transplant done that is basically getting hair or grafts from back of your scalp towards the front part because they don't thin. Your existing hair need to be maintained with continuous medications otherwise in 3-4 years your transplanted hair will be there and existing hair will fall and gradually you will notice the gap again. Yes, Hair transplant is nice option but need to do along with medication prescribed by hair transplant surgeon.
