Age-41yrs. From last 3 years suffering from a black patch all around my lips, specially below the lips on both sides. I had visited a doctor there who detected the problem to be Perical pig / Melasma Pg as written in the prescription. Treated me with the following medicines For the 1st month- Cetaphil gentle cleanser, Flutivate E cream alternate night and Kojic cream once in a day. Next visit I was advised to use Kojiglo cream once daily, Eukroma+Flutivate E cream on the patches twice a week. But I did not find any difference. I had informed the doctor that I cannot afford a very costly treatment, but on her assurance during my third visit I was applied Glycocil pack but yet felt no difference. Then was asked to use Dermadew Caloe lotion every day and Azideenz 10% gel once a day, this gel made my skin rough, when complained she advised me to use only Dermadew lotion day and night daily. My face is 2 to 3 shades darker than my body color. What to do now to get rid of this patch

Without a proper evaluation and diagnosis, I can't say. But normally, suggested treatments for perical pigmentation include topical medications and laser treatments and I do not recommend flutivate cream for pigmentation. However, based on your individual condition, the doctor will recommend the best treatment for you.

My dad has a white patch near chest. Is it worrisome
Male | 62
A white patch on the neck could be a condition called pityriasis versicolor, caused by yeast growth on the skin. It usually leads to white patches without other symptoms. Anti-fungal creams or shampoos prescribed by a dermatologist can help treat it. Keeping the area clean and dry is also important.

The head of my penis is itchy, and there are red spots on it. I havent had sex with multiple people at least 2 years, and my girlfriend is also faithful. Basicly it is not something too serios i guess. But still it is enoying and hurting a little bit also. So i need help figuring out what to do?
Male | 18
You might have balanitis, which is capable of causing itching, red spots, and also discomfort on the head of the penis. Balanitis can occur due to the lack of proper hygiene, irritants, or infections. To assist with this, clean the area with mild soap and water, keep it dry, and avoid irritants like scented soaps or tight clothes. If the symptoms remain, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist for a more detailed diagnosis and treatment.

What to do to get rid of blackheads on the face. And to brighten the face
Male | 25
Blackheads are minuscule black spots on your skin. They are a result of oil and dead skin blocking the pores on the skin. To clarify them, gently wash the pores once daily, never neglect the exfoliation part, and the third thing is to apply a non-come-genic moisturizer. Besides you can try using salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide products. Don't forget to wash your face thoroughly and moisturize it.

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.
Male | 25
You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.

I don't have achne but the when I get pimples it leaves a dark spots and also makes my skin dull What would be the Best vitamin c serum?
Female | 28
You need to use a vitamin C serum that can contain up to 10% L-ascorbic acid so that it can help to lighten the spots on the skin and improve its complexion. Regular acne and scarring should be taken by the dermatologist. I suggest obtaining a dermatologist’s opinion.

I am having dull and dehydrated skin and dark spots.. Since 3 years I have pimple on nose later I poped it and it turned out to be a dark spot on my nose ???? ..
Female | 14
It seems like your skin is dry and lacks brightness; besides the pimple scars on your nose. Skin becomes dull due to lack of water in it. Spots get darker as a result of spots. Drink water and wash your face regularly using mild soap then apply lotion too. In addition, you can wear sunscreen to prevent the darkening of these patches further.

Hi I have been on my period for a month, swallow feet,little sores that are in the skin and painful humps on my legs
Female | 35
Your period lasting an entire month is abnormal. Swollen feet, painful sores on the skin, and lumps on legs are worrisome signs. These symptoms may indicate hormonal imbalance or infection. It is crucial to consult a gynecologist promptly for examination and treatment. Neglecting these issues could lead to complications. An accurate diagnosis is essential to address the underlying cause effectively.

Male | 14
The treatment depends on the diagnosis and the cause of rashes and ring marks. Rashes and ring marks can be caused by a variety of reasons such as eczema, allergy, fungal infections etc. I advise you to take your son to a doctor for knowing the exact cause and diagnosis of rashes and ring marks. Based on that, a proper treatment plan can be recommended.

Male | 20
The appearance of sagging or wrinkle skin can be lessened by improving skin tightening and plastic surgery. Collagen regeneration is done through the use of heat or energy devices that can lift and firm the skin. If you end up choosing body skin tightening, it is very imperative that you visit a doctor who specializes in this field and discuss your concerns as well as determine a good treatment plan.

A few days ago I noticed a bump on my head and I thought I just hit my head. After a couple days it started to get a bit bigger and I noticed that it was a pimple on my scalp. I popped the pimple and removed all the pus and it started to bleed for a little bit but it shortly went away. I went to take a look at it today and I noticed a small circular bald spot about 1 cm in diameter where the pimple used to be. When touching the area with my hand I noticed that the hair in that area is really sensitive and can fall out if I rummage my hand through that area. Is this a concern or is this something normal?
Male | 21
A small circular bald spot on the scalp after popping a pimple is not uncommon, but if the area is sensitive and hair is falling out, please see a dermatologist to rule out infection or other underlying conditions.

been diagnosed with scabies and applies permethrin cream on the 3rd of april. after research i can see improvements are not quick to see but i am seeing a much larger increase of rashes on different parts of my body that weren’t there and the existing ones, like my left hand, looks like the rashes have developed bumps and look more prominent. is this a normal reaction to the cream and should i be worried that it has made it worse? should i try ignore it until my second treatment?
Male | 20
Are rashes getting worse after using permethrin cream? Relax, that's normal. The mites are dying, which can cause irritation and make the rashes appear worse briefly. Don't worry—this means the treatment is working. Keep at it steadily and follow the instructions carefully. Contact a dermatologist if symptoms escalate severely or if discomfort spikes alarmingly.

I am 24 years old , my bum skin is peeling off and I bleed when bowel comes out , my vagina is red and has a hot temperature.
Female | 24
You may have a fissure. This happens if your bowels are making too much effort when you go to the toilet. It is a kind of cut near your bum. It makes excretion painful and can lead to bleeding. On the other hand, having a hot and red vagina could mean you have an infection. To cure both butt and vagina issues, try increasing your daily water intake; include high-fiber foods in your diet as well. Lastly, visit a medical dermatologist for professional treatment.

small 19 x 4 mm focal thickened hypoechoic tissue seen in subcutaneous plane in left posterior neck what does this line means
Female | 40
You have a small area of thickened tissue which is under your skin that appears dark on the imaging scan. This could be due to several reasons such as inflammation or it could be a cyst. You might not have any symptoms but if you do experience pain or if you see it growing, it is better to go to a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.
