Answered on 14th Feb '25
Tiny bumps and dark spots can be related to clogged pores or previous acne. To help, consider a gentle cleanser twice daily, followed by a lightweight moisturizer. Exfoliating once or twice a week can clear away dead skin, and incorporating a product with salicylic acid may prevent future issues. Protect your skin with sunscreen daily to help with dark spots. Remember, everyone’s skin is unique, so it might be wise to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

17 year old Trans man. I believe i have an infection on my finger for a few months. There is redness, swelling and some black and yellow bits.
Male | 17
It looks like you have a sore on your finger. A sore is red and puffy. It might have black or yellow stuff. This means germs got in a cut. To help, keep it clean and dry. You may need medicine if it does not get better. Do not pop it by yourself. Just cover it until you see a dermatologist.

I'm Prashant Sharma from UP 81. & and I'm 18 years old. In winter season due to much cold my fingers of hand and feet are swell and itching it happens every year in this season.
Male | 18
To ease your symptoms, for instance, ensure that your hands and feet are adequately protected from the cold with gloves and thick socks. Besides, your hands and feet can be moisturized regularly, which can further help. In the case that these symptoms persist or become worse, it is a good idea to seek advice from a healthcare professional who can offer you a comprehensive and customized approach. However, your comfort and health are of prime importance, and therefore the best support for your situation is from a dermatologist.

I took two pills of Isotroin 20 two days ago. Could that cause a delay in my period? My period is actually 7 days late. What should I do?
Female | 27
The Isotroin 20 medicine shouldn't be a reason for a woman to have a late period. Nevertheless, anxiety, alterations in your routine, or some other medications could be responsible. Sometimes, missing a period is okay and it's not a reason for worry. If you have been late for your period for a long time, it is a good idea to take a pregnancy test. If you see other strange symptoms or your period is late for a long time, think about going to your gynecologist for a checkup.

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.

Male | 28
Red dots and bumps on the head of the penis can be worrying! These can be caused by various things such as irritation, allergies, infections, or even a skin condition. Sometimes, they may appear due to friction during sexual activity. It's important to keep the area clean and dry. If the red dots and bumps persist or are painful, talk to a dermatologist to get the right treatment.

two small white line patch in my feet
Male | 25
Two small white patches on your feet probably mean a fungal infection called tinea pedis or athlete's foot. It is advised to have a dermatologist visit to properly diagnose and treat any cases of skin diseases or conditions.

My son has woken up from a nap with a read mark in a line. It is thick and red. I’m really worried.
Male | 0
Your son may have a skin issue called "dermatographia," meaning, "skin writing." When pressure touches the skin, red lines appear. It's not severe and commonly disappears by itself. Perhaps he laid on something leaving a mark. If it disturbs him, or worsens, consulting a dermatologist would be wise.

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.

Good evening, I do a lot of cardio like jogging, but I noticed that I may have trauma from jogging. On one of my toe nails, I have a brown line on my third toenail. I’m thinking it may occurred due to the friction of my shoes.
Male | 24
A bruised toenail might explain the brown line you noticed. Repeated pressure and friction from shoes during jogging often cause this issue. Occasionally, bleeding occurs beneath the nail. Discomfort or swelling around the toe may arise. To promote healing, ensure proper shoe fit and provide rest for your toe. Over time, this condition should resolve itself. If not, visit a dermatologist.

All fingers have warts please treatment
Male | 18
Warts on the fingers may be caused by this virus named HPV that gets into the skin through cuts or breaks in. Warts are raised lumps that sometimes have tiny black dots. To treat them you can try over-the-counter wart treatments or get a doctor's prescription. Wash your hands often and dry them well to avoid contamination of others with warts.

I am 27 years old female and have dry skin type. Lately my skin on the torso, waist and hip has become extremely dry & flaky. Even piling doesn't affect it. I then tried aveeno cream which has reduced flakiness, but it's still very tough to touch and skin on these areas has become stretchy as well as scaly. My grandmother had this skin. It's strange because skin everywhere else is normal, but there it's becoming old and wrinkled. I drink 2-3 litres water daily, although piling doesn't help but I still oil everyday. Pls help. I also take vitamin E capsules, sea cod, vitamin c chewables, and B complex capsules. My skin overall is dry and scalp has dandruff because of this too. There are sometimes small patches of dry skin at random areas like back, forearm and torso, and when I scratch away it goes off like flakes. But this dry, rough and wrinkled skin on my torso, waist and hip is bothering me.
Female | 27
There are a few things you can try to help with your dry, rough and wrinkled skin. First, make sure you are using a moisturizer that is specially formulated for dry skin. Look for ingredients like shea butter, cocoa butter, or almond oil. These will help provide moisture and nourishment to the skin. You may also want to try a richer cream, such as body butter or a balm, to provide extra hydration.
You can also try using a gentle exfoliator to help remove any dead skin cells and promote cell turnover. This will help the skin to look smoother and help with flakiness.
In addition to using moisturizers and exfoliators, you should also make sure you are getting enough vitamins and minerals in your diet. Vitamins A, C, and E are all important for healthy skin, as well as omega-3 fatty acids. Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables can help you get the nutrients you need for healthy skin.
Finally, make sure you are drinking plenty of water throughout the day. This will help keep your skin hydrated and help prevent dryness.

I am 21 years old and having forehead acne only and no acne on other part of face and my doctor suggested me isotretinoin should I take it or they are for severe acne?
Female | 21 years
Forehead acne is quite common. It can be because of the sebum the skin makes too much as it gets plugged and distresses the follicles. Isotretinoin is mainly used for the treatment of severe acne, so if your doctor has recommended it, it may indicate that your acne has become more severe and chronic. Make sure you are listening to your doctor and feel free to express your worries if you have any.

Female | 26
Hives seem to be your issue. Red, itchy spots appear on skin when histamine is released. This can happen due to allergies, stress, or infections. For relief, use antihistamines and apply cool compresses. But if hives continue, see a dermatologist.

Female | 36
The appearance of pigmentation on the face is a result of iron deficiency but not the only case. In case you still have dark spots after microneedling and PRP, make sure you consult a dermatologist. Improving iron status as a part of skin care may add to pigmentation treatment, but the key is not there.

Hi I got a hot water burn in my penis last night and part of the skin is like peeling and red what should I do?
Male | 18
You have a burn on your penis from hot water, and now the skin is peeling and red. Burns can be painful so it’s important to take care of them. Gently clean the area with cool water and a mild soap. You could also use aloe vera gel or some kind of soothing cream to help it heal. Don’t wear tight clothes that will irritate it more either. If it still hurts or stays red after all this, talk to a dermatologist.

I have hand taining problem What cream I should use
Male | 20
It sounds like you are experiencing discomfort in your hands, which can be caused by various factors such as dryness, eczema, or even dermatitis. To alleviate symptoms, consider using a fragrance-free moisturizer or a hydrocortisone cream for inflammation, but it’s best to apply after consulting with a dermatologist. Keeping hands moisturized and avoiding irritants can also help improve the condition. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please reach out to your doctor for an accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment.
