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.

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.

Large manufactured systems may need complex treatment options, such as laser hair removal or medications for rashes and dry skin. In this case, a dermatologist can guide you on the appropriate face wash and sunscreen that is to your skin type.

Male | 25
Your low levels of vitamin B12 and D together with the stress you were exposed to might be the causes of the hair loss. These deficiencies manifest as hair fall, fatigue, and an overall feeling of being weak. It would be wise to try out supplements of both vitamins D and B12. Along with the stress, relaxation, and activities that you enjoy, a proper diet is the main factor. You can also consult a dermatologist for proper guidance.

Hello my name is miss kelly ann miller please can you tell me what I have i live in london united kindom but I have been living in romania for 1 year about a week ago i have gathered a rash mostly on my hands which look like small spots with water in them and is very itchy at times can you tell me what it is
Female | 33
You may have a condition called eczema. Eczema can cause red, itchy patches with small water-filled blisters, especially on the hands. Switching to a new living environment can sometimes lead to skin reactions. Use a mild moisturizer, avoid harsh soaps, and wear gloves for hand protection. If the rash does not improve, it is important to consult a dermatologist for further assistance.

Skin problem full body pimples
Male | 23
You might have acne. Acne is a condition that causes pimples because hair follicles are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Common signs are redness, swelling and pus-filled lumps. Reasons can be different like hormonal changes, bacteria or genetics. To clear up acne, wash the skin gently, don’t squeeze the spots and use over-the-counter treatments. If it doesn’t get better, see a dermatologist for help.

Male | 24
Your spouse likely has a polyp in their nose, a small growth. Allergies, infections, or irritation often trigger these. Difficulty breathing and runny noses can occur. Saline sprays and humidifiers provide relief. For serious cases, a dermatologist may suggest medication or surgery to eliminate the polyp.

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.

Female | 28
You need to use a vitamin C serum that can contain up to 10% L-ascorbic acid so that it can help to lighten the spots on the skin and improve its complexion. Regular acne and scarring should be taken by the dermatologist. I suggest obtaining a dermatologist’s opinion.

Your talking about alopecia areata. Main line of treatment for alopecia areata is local and intralesional steroids. Oral and local immunosuppressant are also very effective. Pls try for TOFACITINIB 5MG TWICE A DAY AFTER FOOD. Reach out to me or any dermatologist for further evaluation and second opinion - Dermatologists in India.

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.

I have these little rashes on my neck and I need them to go away I need some type of cream or medicine that would help it so my neck wouldn’t have all of these rashes on my neck it’s so annoying
Female | 20
These welts might result from skin irritations, allergies, or even some skin disorders such as eczema. To help them disappear, you could get an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. This cream will reduce the swelling. Avoid itching or scratching to prevent further irritation. Also, remember to clean the affected area and keep it dry. But if these rashes are still there after doing all these things then go see a dermatologist.

I am 16 yrs old female and have skin warts on face from the time when I was kid about 5 to 6 yrs old and my father and brother also have warts on face what to do any medicine or any treatment is it curable or not
Female | 16
Face warts come from a virus that spreads from person to person. It’s very contagious within families. Although warts aren’t serious, they can be annoying. Special creams, freezing, or laser treatment can be used to remove them. However, they may return later. You should talk with a dermatologist about what will work best for you.

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
Vitiligo is a medical issue leading to pale spots on skin areas. It happens when your body attacks its own cells. Or vitiligo may stem from inherited genes. There's no permanent fix, but creams and light treatment can help blend skin tones better. Sun protection is key to stop color changes. You can also visit a dermatologist for treatment.

I’m having a persistent skin reaction what can I do
Male | 26
The causes of skin rashes may be different, like allergies, irritating substances, or other diseases. The symptoms are typically redness, itching, or swelling. Start by identifying the triggering factors such as using new products or clothes and stop their use. Gently clean with a mild soap and the lack of fragrance moisturizers may be used to reduce redness. Over-the-counter hydrocortisone creams can also provide relief. If the symptoms do not get better or get worse, I will suggest visiting a dermatologist for proper treatment advice.

How can I get a prescription for Hydroquinone or Albaquin 20% for pigmentation on my face. Had Depigmentation in the past in England, where I reside for extensive vitiligo. I used to get it from Dr Mulekar and from Puneet Lab, Mumbai. Dr Mulekar has now passed away. I’m looking for another Dermatologist who can prescribe it for me. I get small very dark specks on my face occasionally, the Albaquin 20% helps to control these dark patches.
Female | 63
Dealing with pigmentation issues on your face can be frustrating. You're looking for a prescription for either Hydroquinone or Albaquin 20% to help lighten those dark patches. Pigmentation problems often result from sun exposure or hormonal changes. A dermatologist could evaluate your skin, and then prescribe the most suitable treatment option. Hydroquinone and Albaquin 20% are potential solutions worth considering.

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.
