It may not always be painful, though it causes occasional mild pain. Such a thing can happen when there is a small sac under the skin or it is a harmless tumor. Sometimes these bumps are caused by blocked oil ducts or inflamed hair follicles. Make sure you have a dermatologist take a look at it so they can tell you for sure what it is and how to fix it.

Sir/mam I had itchy red bumps on scrotum and buttocks and thighs. Previously I had scabies then doctor prescribed scabest lotion then for a 1 month I was totally fine but after that i had bumps on scrotum, buttocks and thighs without fluid(pus) in them. they are really discomfort. Please tell me what should I do now. Thanks ❤
Male | 20
It sounds like you may be experiencing a recurrence of scabies, or it could be another skin condition. I advise you to see a dermatologist or a specialist in sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to get a proper diagnosis. They may recommend a different medication or treatment plan based on the underlying cause of your symptoms.

My son is 3 years old he got hurt by beds corner on his forehead very badly on November which left very bad mark on his face i am applying scardin cream but is not that effective pls suggest what should I do
Male | 3
If the marks are just pigmentation-like, they will be corrected in due course of time with the combination of steroids and antibiotics in tropical form, and if it is a depression or scar that has to be addressed with lasers.

Female | 26
You've noticed chin hair and swelling in the morning, plus weight gain for 2 months. These could signal hormone changes, thyroid issues or fluid buildup. Seeing a dermatologist is crucial - they'll check symptoms, order tests if needed, and advise treatment so you feel better soon.

i am 32 year old female i have black heads problem in last 3 months and some black ots on hand and legs
Female | 32
Blackheads are small bumps that form when hair follicles get blocked by dead skin cells and excess oil. This can happen due to excess sebum, hormonal changes, or improper skin care. To reduce blackheads, use a gentle exfoliating scrub and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Always clean your skin well to avoid irritation and prevent the urge to squeeze blackheads.

Can I use benzoyl peroxide ointment for acne
Male | 13
Acne is a frequent skin problem that affects a person's skin by pimples and redness. Acne can be managed by using benzoyl peroxide ointment. It operates by eradicating bacteria from the skin. You might notice dryness or peeling at first, but it usually gets better with time. It is important to use only a small amount and keep away from sensitive parts.

I got rashes(may be fungal) on neck(with itchning), leg(no itching rarely itches) and on butt( red bumbs, black and white spots rarely itches) and somewhere in leg and lower back near hair growth it appearance are like black bumps.
Female | 22
The red bumps and itchiness can a fungal infection, particularly when they have various shapes and colors. Fungal infections are quite common in warm, and moist areas, which are the places where they often occur. The use of antifungal creams or powders is an effective way of clearing up these rashes. In addition, keeping the affected areas clean and dry will help to stop the fungus from spreading. If the rashes do not go away or worsen, see a dermatologist for the correct diagnosis and treatment plan.

I am suffering from a postpartum hair fall issue. What should I do?
Female | 30
Up to 50% of new moms suffer from normal postpartum hair loss due to such hormonal shifts. It typically spikes around 4-5 months and subsides in a period between six to twelve months. Pay attention to general health, softer hair washing and scalp massage. If hair loss is heavy, prolonged, or associated with scalp problems then it’s advised to see a dermatologist. You are not the only one, and your hair will likely be back to normal!

I am a 22 year old female, my breasts have become more pale and sensitive as of late, and am unsure why.
Female | 22
Breasts changing color and feeling more sensitive is common. This could happen due to hormones, irritated skin, or blood flow changes. Look for other issues like pain or lumps too. If changes last or worry you, talk to a doctor for a checkup.

Hello, I have redness on my nose, I would like to get rid of it, as its not the same colour and it looks ugly. I kinda know why its red. I had erythema multiforme, after someone drank from my water bottle and i got herpes simplex, i had red dots on my hand, knees, elbows, and one on my nosebridge now its gone, but ever since i have a discolored nose. The top where it connects to the forehead is white and below its a red colour, what can I do to get back the original colour of my nose, is there any medication that can help?
Male | 21
That redness on your nose might be leftover swelling. Don't worry though, with some gentle TLC, it should fade. Be sure to moisturize and use mild products. Staying out of harsh sunlight (and SPF!) will also keep discoloration away. It may take time, but your skin will heal.

I face chicken pox disease from last 3 days and now I feel hot after taking fever medicine
Female | 17
After taking fever medicine, it usually happens that a person feels to be hot. Chickenpox is a virus that causes the manifestation of itchiness all around the body with red spots that turn into blisters. Fever, headache, and tiredness are the most common symptoms. Always remember to drink plenty of fluids to keep your body hydrated. Calamine lotion is useful in alleviating itching. Plenty of rest is essential.

i am 17 year male and i am suffering from moderate phimosis suggest some steriod cream or tropical create to get rid of it
Male | 17
It seems like you're going through an issue of moderate phimosis which indicates that the foreskin is too tight and cannot be retracted. This can lead to discomfort or pain during activities such as biting water and cleaning. Use of a steroid cream like Betamethasone is likely to be helpful in loosening the skin. A dermatologist will guide you on the right amount of cream to use and where to apply it.

I noticed a growth around my private part but not my penis but within the layers below the penis region , and I visited a pharmacist and I was told I had genital wart . Also told to use a cream called podophyllin cream , I will like to know how long the wart stays in the body and also if it doesn’t cause cancer or diseases like hiv or aids
Male | 34
Small flesh bumps down there are caused by a virus called HPV. The virus can stay in your body for a long time. But medicine like podophyllin cream can treat the bumps. Your pharmacist will guide you on using the cream. The bumps do not cause cancer, HIV, or AIDS. But you may see small, flesh-colored bumps in your private parts. Be sure to follow the cream use instructions carefully. Keep using the cream until the bumps go away. If you have more worries or questions, talk to a dermatologist.

I just want to ask can i go to solarium today if i have a magnetic resonance in 2 days? i mean because of radiation, is it related or not allowed
Female | 21
It is not recommended to go to a solarium before your MRI scan, which is a tanning bed that is more powerful than a normal one. The rays from the solarium can affect how clear the scan will be sometimes. It’s like taking a picture with a dirty lens – things might not turn out sharp. If you are worried about anything, you should avoid the solarium and speak to your doctor about any further concerns.

Balanitis is what you are probably suffering from. Balanitis refers to a situation when the foreskin of the penis or its tip becomes red, inflamed, and sensitive. The reasons could be not cleaning the foreskin, irritation due to soaps, or even infections. To assist, guarantee that the area is kept clean and dry, avoid using harsh soaps, and you may need a dermatologist to prescribe medication.
