Causes of face swelling due to cold
When you have a cold, your face may swell as your body fights off germs, increasing blood flow to the area. This extra blood can make your face look puffy. Rest, hydration, and a cold compress can help reduce the swelling. However, if it persists or gets worse, it's important to consult a doctor, as it could indicate something more serious than a regular cold.

Can Beclomethasone Cream Replace Luliconazole Cream Safely?
Using Beclomethasone Dipropionate, Clotrimazole, and Neomycin Sulphate cream may not be an ideal substitute for Luliconazole cream, especially if you are treating a fungal infection. Luliconazole specifically targets fungi, while the other cream is a combination that includes a steroid and antibiotics, which may not provide the same effect. If you're experiencing itching, redness, or irritation, it is best to see a dermatologist to evaluate your condition accurately. They can recommend the most effective treatment tailored to your needs.

Why is my skin burning and drying out?
A burning sensation and persistent dryness on the skin can stem from various factors, such as allergies, skin conditions, or environmental influences. It's vital to keep your skin moisturized using gentle, fragrance-free lotions, and to stay hydrated. Avoid hot showers and harsh soaps, as they can exacerbate symptoms. Consider using soothing products containing ingredients like aloe vera or calendula. If these measures don’t improve your situation or if symptoms worsen, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment plan.

Which cream is safe for sensitive skin after stopping Skin Shine cream?
It's understandable to experience sensitivity after discontinuing your long-term cream. This can lead to redness, itching, and changes in skin tone due to rebound effects. To soothe your skin, consider using a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer containing ingredients like hyaluronic acid or ceramides. Additionally, a broad-spectrum sunscreen will help protect your skin from further irritation. It's essential to gradually reintroduce products and observe how your skin responds. I highly recommend consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice and potential alternatives tailored to your skin type.

Why do I have itchy, pimple-like rashes after shaving?
It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin irritation or folliculitis, which can occur when hair follicles become inflamed. This can happen due to shaving, leading to bumps and itching. While antibiotics can help with bacterial infections, they may not be effective for irritation. Consider using a gentle, fragrance-free shaving cream, and avoid shaving too closely. Moisturizing the area regularly can also soothe the skin. If symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a dermatologist. They can provide a thorough assessment and suggest appropriate treatments tailored to your needs.

Why is my left hand injury turning white?
It's common for injuries to show changes in color as they heal, especially in the form of white patches, which might indicate a healing process or even mild infection. Factors like moisture, irritation, or skin adjustment can contribute to this. To promote recovery, keep the area clean and dry, and consider applying a mild antiseptic. Avoid tight bandaging. If the area becomes increasingly painful, swollen, or discolored, it’s vital to consult a dermatologist. They can assess the situation more thoroughly and provide tailored treatment for optimal healing.

Which topical antifungal cream for severe ringworm infection?
Itchy, red, circular rashes on the skin generally characterize this condition. It is of high importance to choose a good topical treatment, which, like clotrimazole or terbinafine, can effectively remove the fungus. In any case, if you do not feel well or your condition deteriorates, I strongly advise you to see a dermatologist. They may devise a treatment course specially designed for your issue. It should be noted that from time to time, long-lasting infections need a compendious approach to make sure the person is fully recovered.

Could Friction Burns Cause Bumps on Genital Area After Sex?
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.
