Soframycin Ointment for Nose Piercing Care
Can I use soframycin ointment on my nose piercing
Trichologist
Answered on 16th Aug '24
Nose piercings sometimes get infected. Redness, swelling, pus appear when germs enter. Soframycin ointment doesn't treat piercing infections. Saline solution (saltwater) gently cleans the area. Rinse piercing multiple times daily. If symptoms persist beyond several days, consult a doctor. Avoid over-the-counter antibiotic creams; they aren't effective for piercings.

While cutting pubic hairs down there, I have cut myself from scissors. Can this cause tatnus. What should I do?
Female | 27
Tetanus disease comes with some toxic dirty cuts that make swallowing very hard as well as stiffness of muscles generally. Such people should ensure the scratch is germs-free by washing it with water and soap and then applying any antiseptic. One should also note that if you have not had any tetanus vaccination within the last ten years, make sure it is done as soon as possible to prevent further infections.

Hello doctor I have 2 marks on my nose earlier it was small and light but Now they are dark and big , and I really want to remove them. So kindly give me advice they look really very bad.
Female | 37
We need to see picture of the marks and we need to know the reason behind marks if it's previous chicken pox or accident or any infection. Based on location sometimes we might remove them or sometimes we might give some sufficient filling part or we have TCA peel so we need to decide based on depth location and reason behind marks. Please share the pictures. You can also visit plastic surgeon near your area.

Small black burn marks from estim device under glans
Male | 20
Small burn marks under one's private parts can happen from using electronic devices. These marks may be black and caused by too much rubbing or heat. You'll likely feel tender, red, and sore there. Stop using the device right away. Gently wash the area with a mild soap and water. Apply a soothing cream like aloe vera to help it heal. If the burn marks stay or worsens, see a doctor to get checked out and treated properly.

I applied cortimycin on my face few days ago and it has refused to get off my face, how do i get it off?
Male | 19
Cortimycin can sometimes hang around if you’ve been using it for a while. You may notice dryness, redness, or irritation. To help ease it off, try washing your face gently with a mild cleanser and warm water. After that, don’t forget to put on moisturizer to calm your skin down. If this continues to be a problem, you should see a dermatologist.

I am an 39 year old lady I am having dark acne , my chin is so black I am having black heads and white heads my skin is getting to dull . How these all problems believe my face? Hope you can help me
Female | 39
This could be because you have blackheads and whiteheads. They can be the ones that dull your skin. Acne is caused by the build-up of clogged pores, too much oil, and bacteria. Washing your face with a gentle cleanser, not squeezing the pimples, and using non-comedogenic skincare products that won't clog pores are some ways to help. Visit a dermatologist for more tips.

Lupus can lead to redness, rashes, and sensitivity to light. Safeguard your skin from the sun, as sunlight can bring on lupus flare-ups. Use light skincare products and moisturizing cream to replenish your skin frequently. If the symptoms continue, talk to a dermatologist. They could suggest particular treatments to aid in the management of your skin disorder.

I am 17 year old boy. I am suffering from heavy hair fall. please help me I have long hair
Male | 17
Hair loss is a normal part of aging, but it might need attention if you notice an excessive amount for your age. Significant hair fall can be due to stress, poor nutrition, or an untreated wound. To address this, focus on your diet, manage stress, and choose gentle hair products. Avoid tight hairstyles that pull on your hair. If the condition doesn't improve, consider consulting a dermatologist.

Is small white spots on whole face a sign of deficiency in some nutrients
Female | 46
Spots on the face could be a sign of a disease, called vitiligo, associated with white color. This occurs when melanocytes, the cells which produce pigmentation in the skin, are destroyed by the immune system. The best option is to go to a dermatologist who has a lot of experience in the management of patients with vitiligo.

Female | 22
Skin redness and irritation have been linked to the use of Clindamycin Phosphate Gel 3%. You may be having an allergic reaction to the gel. It is advised that you should discontinue the use of gel and seek consultation with a dermatologist for appropriate assessment and treatment.

I have a small black spot on the top of my right wrist. I don't know how to say it. It has a structure like tiny dots around it. But it doesn't hurt.It's normal as always. It's been coming for two months now Also on my left hand, I had a small cut about a month ago. 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.
Male | 22
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.

Male | 20
A subcutaneous cyst is one possible cause of a painless and colorless sad in the groin area. The reason is that when the sac, which is under the skin, is filled with liquid. It is usually not dangerous. Groin cysts can be the clotting of the sebaceous glands or hair follicles. Visit a dermatologist, and they will decide to remove it by cutting or draining it depending on the severity of the problem.

I have alots of pimple and dark spots over the face
Female | 24
Pimples sprout when oil and dead cells clog pores. Red bumps might ooze sometimes. After pimples heal, dark marks linger. For help, wash your face twice daily with gentle cleanser. Don't pick pimples. Non-comedogenic lotions and products deter breakouts. A dermatologist offer creams or procedures to tame acne and dark spots.

I am 23 years old male i have pimples on my forehead for last 1 months and also blackhead, I had used some cream which was useful in past , but now it's not showing results
Male | 23
Pimples can occur due to excess oil production in the skin and impurities clogging the pores with dirt or dead skin cells. Sometimes, the cream you used before may no longer work because your skin can develop a tolerance to it. I suggest you try a different cream or face wash containing either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, which can help unclog pores and treat your pimples and blackheads. Remember to wash your face gently twice a day and avoid touching your face too much. If the problem persists or worsens, don’t hesitate to consult a dermatologist for a thorough examination and personalized treatment.

I was having balanitis one year back and got treated but later that year me and my girlfriend both got diagnosed with HPV. Now I am is getting cracked foreskin. Due to that it's getting pain whenever gets stretched. Also the skin around the anal area is loosing and looks pinkish without pain.
Male | 28
According to your symptoms, a fungal infection or an irritation might be the reason behind it. The cracked foreskin could result from either the infection or the dryness. The pinkish skin around the anal area might be related. Hygiene is the first thing that must be done to make this area stay clean and dry. Antifungal cream or simple moisturizer may be required. Keep away from strong soaps and wear loose clothes. Drink plenty of liquids and eat a balanced diet to aid the natural healing process.

I am 54 and have had a swollen, red, itchy, scaly skin leg from the knee to the toes. I’ve been to the doctor 3 times and they checked for a blood clot and ran tests. No clots. Tried 2 different antibiotics that were prescribed and no change. Icing doesn’t change. Elevation doesn’t change. Compression socks doesn’t change it either. Resting it doesn’t help either.
Male | 54
It seems that you have a resistant skin problem on your leg. The redness, swelling, itching and flakiness could indicate different illnesses such as dermatitis or eczema. After excluding blood clots and failure of antibiotics treatment, it might be helpful to have them checked more thoroughly by a dermatologist. They can suggest different kind of therapy which will be more efficient taking into account the exact nature of the disease.
