The black rash, accompanied by itching and burning, could be caused by various factors, such as an allergic reaction, irritation, or possibly an infection. It’s important to keep the area clean and avoid scratching. Using a gentle moisturizer may provide relief. However, since you've noticed changes in your skin, I recommend scheduling a visit with a dermatologist for a thorough examination. They can provide an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment to ensure your comfort and well-being.

Male | 21

You may be having an allergic reaction on your hands and legs. Common symptoms of an allergic reaction include redness, itching, and swollen skin. Allergies can be caused by various things such as certain foods, insect bites, or plants. You can, in turn, use a soothing lotion and take medication for antihistamines to cope with the symptoms.

I have acne spots and darkspots on my face form 2 years can i use azelic acid if I can then how much percent

Female | 18

Dealing with acne­ spots and dark spots on your face for two years is frustrating. Consider using aze­laic acid: safe for most people. A 10% conce­ntration is effective. It re­duces acne breakouts and fade­s discoloration. Use it daily by applying a thin layer after cle­ansing. Complement with sunscree­n and moisturizer.

Hi I am a 35 year old woman , I have very annoying spots all around my behind area and I don't know how to get rid of them.

Female | 35

You might be dealing with a common issue called acne. The back can easily get acne due to things like friction from clothes, sweating, or clogged hair follicles. To treat these spots, keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use over-the-counter acne treatments with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid.

A little cat scratch me 5months ago and I complete the vaccination procedure by 0,3,7,21days shedule and after 5months I got scratch by a cat again but the scratch was invisible I feel the scratch just so what should I do ,may I need any vaccine again

Female | 19

It's great that you finished your vaccination following the first cat scratch. Having a new scratch 5 months later, you do not need to get the vaccine again. As long as you have finished the full course in the past and it is less than a year since then, you are safe. Be on the lookout in case of any flaming, puffing, or fever. If you see these signs, consult your doctor.

Consultation regarding premature grey hair

Female | 23

Premature gray hair occurs when your hair loses its natural color earlier than expected, often before the age of 30. You may notice gray hair becoming more common or see more gray strands than usual. The main cause is usually genetics, but factors like stress, poor diet, and certain medical conditions can also contribute. Maintaining a balanced diet, managing stress, and using hair products with vitamins can help support hair health and slow the graying process.

Female | 20

There are many reasons why your skin may appear older than you’d like. Some of the most common include excessive sun exposure, smoking, and dehydration. Additionally, stress and genetics can also contribute to this issue. To improve the condition of your skin, it is advisable to apply sunscreen every day, drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and quit smoking. Using mild cleansers along with moisturizers can help maintain a healthy complexion.
