Actually i got a little scratch by a street dog’s nail but it’s not deep also so pls recommend me what should i do.. i can also share the pic of it for better suggestion

Female | 17

I can see that scratching you due to a street dog can be a worrying issue for you. From your information, the scratch is not too deep, which may mean there is a low chance of infection. Watch out for any redness, swelling, or warmth around the area. First of all, wash the scratch using soap and water and then apply the antiseptic cream to the area to avoid any further infection. Watch the scratch for a few days, and if you spot any of the infection signs that are getting worse, like more pain, redness, or pus formation, it is better to go to a doctor.

You are suffering from cracked heels. One of the reasons cracked heels can appear is if your skin gets very dry or if you’re carrying extra weight. Cracked heels are painful and may even bleed. To assist, you can consider using a gentle moisturizer on your feet daily and wearing comfortable shoes. However, if the cracks are too deep or the wounds are slow to heal, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist.

Female | 23

It sounds like you're experiencing some discomfort with swollen glands in your neck and jaw, along with a red eye. These symptoms may indicate an infection or inflammation, possibly linked to a viral or bacterial cause. Allergies or irritants could also contribute to your eye's redness. It's important to stay hydrated and consider applying a warm compress to the affected areas. However, I encourage you to reach out to a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation. They can provide an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment options to help you feel better soon.

Hi there im a 47 year old black male I went to a traditional circumsation I'm now on 5weeks the foreskin went back to the head like uncircumcised and is swollen but not paining

Male | 47

You might be having a case of paraphimosis. This is the condition when the foreskin is stuck behind the head of the penis and it becomes swollen. It is crucial to first try to push the foreskin back over the head very gently to take away the swelling. If it still doesn't go back or worsens, you should see a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Make sure you rest, use warm moist clothes on your face then take over-the-counter painkillers. However, if it does not improve or gets worse then you need to see a doctor for further advice.

Male | 22

It is likely a case of a fungal infection on the penis head. The symptom of this would be redness and itching. Keeping the area clean and dry is essential. Never use OTC creams without a doctor's advice. Instead of them, use an antifungal cream. If the symptoms do not improve, you should visit a dermatologist to get the right treatment.

I am suffering from fungal infection since last 6 months. I got relief for few days from the cream which I had bought from the chemist shop. Then this work is done properly. I asked a doctor and took Fluconazole medicine for two-four days, it did not make much difference, still it is itching a lot, so please suggest me some cream or medicine which can help in this problem. The problem should be eliminated from its roots

Male | 16

Some over the counter creams can ease the pain temporarily, they are usually not persistent enough to eradicate the infection. You should visit a dermatologist they will be able to diagnose the particular fungi and prescribe medication like antifungal creams or oral medication such as terbinafine and itraconazole.

thanks pr 5 day mai recover ho gya but scar jayega ya nhi halka sa scar dikh rha

Female | 22

A light scar may form after skin healing due to the natural process of tissue repair. This occurs when the skin creates new cells to close up any wounds. To support healing and minimize scarring, keep the area moisturized and protected from sun exposure. Using silicone gel sheets or vitamin E may also be beneficial. If you're concerned about the scar's visibility, I recommend discussing this with a dermatologist for personalized advice.
