my face is dark and acne on it
Male | 17
Dark skin patches and acne can occur due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, or clogged pores. To improve your skin, use gentle cleansers, keep your skin moisturized, and avoid harsh products. Drink plenty of water, eat healthy food, and resist picking at acne to prevent scarring. Also, protect your skin from the sun to reduce further darkening.

i have some acne on my chin
Female | 13
Pimples often appear on the chin area when skin pores get blocked. Obstructed pores trap excess oil and dead cells. Red bumps, whiteheads, and blackheads form. Hormones, stress, and certain foods contribute. Gently wash your face twice daily. Don't squeeze pimples. Use benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid products. Eat nutritious foods, and drink adequate water. These steps can improve acne on your chin.

I have recently done Human Simplex virus(HSV) 1+2 igM serum test it come back <0.500 and another Human Simplex Virus (HSV) 1+2 igG serum test it come back 0.87 , sir could you please explain this , am I Infected or not
Male | 25
The IgM test result which is less than 0.500 means there are no recent infections. However, the IgG test result of 0.87 indicates a past infection. You might commonly have symptoms such as blisters, pain, and itching. Nevertheless, treatments are available to cope with the symptoms and outbreaks, so, don't hesitate to contact a dermatologist for more help.

I am 27 years old and yesterday I just did fat burner on my double chin and nose thread. Today my face swelling so bad. I couldn’t even open my mouth properly. My beautician gave me 2 types of medication. She ask me to take this medication to reduce swelling : 3 tablets of beazyme and 2 capsules of amoxicillin (0.5g) consume at once. Is this okay to take this dose at the same time?
Female | 27
Swelling after such procedures can be explained by the human body's natural reaction to the treatment. The doses your beautician recommended are likely to be too high to take at once. It is very important to schedule the doses of the medicine at the proper time and take only what is prescribed by a doctor to lower the chances of any complications. If the swelling stays the same or worsens, go to a dermatologist.

I experience cold symptoms whenever I step outside, possibly due to dust. I also feel cold even when I am in an air-conditioned environment. Additionally, while preparing food, I start sneezing due to the smell of the ingredients. I am not sure why this problem occurs, and I am seeking advice on what I should do to address this issue.
Female | 25
You may be suffering from allergies, which can cause sneezing and chills despite warm weather. Allergens such as dust and strong odors, possibly from food, could trigger these symptoms. To manage this, avoid exposure to dust and pungent smells. Wearing a mask and keeping your living areas spotless can help. Over-the-counter antihistamines may offer relief. However, allergies are a complex condition, so it's important to steer clear of irritants.

Can I use benzoyl peroxide ointment for acne
Male | 13
Acne is a frequent skin problem that affects a person's skin by pimples and redness. Acne can be managed by using benzoyl peroxide ointment. It operates by eradicating bacteria from the skin. You might notice dryness or peeling at first, but it usually gets better with time. It is important to use only a small amount and keep away from sensitive parts.

Hi my daughter has a spot on her tummy and it's painful to touch and it's all red with little white spots around it
Female | 4
Your daughter most probably has a skin infection called Impetigo. A painful, red spot with white spots around it is a symptom of this illness. This is due to bacteria entering the skin, which usually happens when a cut or insect bite is present. To deal with this issue, keep the area clean, apply antibiotic cream, and cover it with a bandage. Make sure she doesn't scratch it to prevent spreading the infection.

I want get rid of my black skin and I'm 18 years old .does vitamin c 1000mg capsule good or not for skin whitening
Female | 18
When it comes to skin whitening Vitamin C capsules, can give your skin a good glow and make it appear more even. However, there is no scientific proof that they change skin color. Skin color is primarily determined by melanin, a pigment found in the skin. Vitamin C can improve overall skin health because it’s an antioxidant that protects against damage caused by the sun, pollution, and other factors. Always consult with a dermatologist for any skin-related concerns.

I am 17 years old I have highly pain in mouth ulcer please recommend Mouthwash Pain relief gel or tablet
Male | 17
Having a painful mouth ulcer can be uncomfortable. For some, the first signs of it manifest as a burning or tingling sensation. However, ulcers can also be induced by emotional stress, or injury to the mouth, or even eating certain food types. As a sedative, a gentle mouthwash that does not contain alcohol should suffice for you to clean the area of an ulcer. Besides, it's also possible to glue a pain relief gel or to swallow a tablet for pain relief. Bloating or blistering, which can be caused by spicy or acidic foods, should also be avoided. These foods may exacerbate your ulcer.

I've been using Clobeta Gm for my face and it works great for my skin. I've used others Creams and serums suggested by doctors and some serums by watching online suggestions but this which I brought for some fungal infection works great for my skin on my face. I've used this before about 2 years back it worked before also but I've stopped using because of fear that this might cause any problems in my future but I'm these 2 years my acne got worse I've tried all possible sources but nothing did work for my skin. After losing hope i remembered this and now I started using this and again it gave me results. I don't if something is wrong with my skin or what works for it. I just need a approval that this doesn't cause any future permanent damage in future and i also wanna know about this cream whether it is safe or not - it's clobeta GM cream ( clobetasol propionate,neomycin sulphate,miconaxole, zinc oxide and borax cream 20g) it's composition: clobeta propionate I.P 0.05% w/w ,Neomycin Sulphate I.P 0.5% w/w , Miconazole Nitrate I.P. 2.0 % w/w,Zinc Oxide I.P 2.5% w/w,Borax B.P. 0.05% w/w,Chlorocresol(as preservative) I.P. 0.1% w/w,Cream base.
Female | 19
You found Clobeta GM cream helpful. But, be careful using it long-term. Clobetasol propionate, the steroid, may thin skin or cause acne if used too long. Neomycin might irritate your skin. Miconazole kills fungus but shouldn't be used without doctor's advice over time. Consult a dermatologist to use this cream safely and avoid risks.

Hi, i am 29 year old. i have started getting pigmentation around my right eye and left cheek. which treatment do you recommend? and please suggest some good serum , i have tried a few but none working on my skin. Thank you!
Female | 29
Pigmentation around the eyes may be due to excess melanin in the skin, shadowing effect due to deep set eyes or due to thin skin around the eyes. Pigmentation around the eyes may be due to excess eye muscle strain, inadequate sleep, iron or vitamin B12 deficiencies, thyroid hormonal imbalance or constitutional. Dark circles may extend on to the cheeks leading to pigmentary demarcation lines. However if it is only on one side any trauma or underlying ophthalmologic cause should be ruled out with an Ophthalmologist’s opinion apart from a Dermatologist’s consultation. Topical cream/serum containing vitamin C, retinol, haloxyl, kojic acid , glycolic acid, etc in lower concentrations are recommended. Sunscreens, using sun glasses, anti glare screens on desktop/laptop etc may prevent further worsening of the condition. Laser toning with Q-switched yag laser, mild chemical peels may help. If the cause of dark circles is due to hollowness under the eye, hyaluronic acid fillers may help. For more help please visit dermatologist near you

Female | 22
Ringworm is a skin disease that is caused by a fungus. In this way, the skin can turn red, be itchy, and feel suffering as a result of its injury. You can use the antifungal creams sold at the pharmacy to treat the ringworm. Make sure to clean and dry the area. Personal items like towels should not be shared. If it doesn't get better, you should consider getting help from a dermatologist.

I have white dots on my testicles
Male | 25
Your testis might have some white spots, which probably are Fordyce spots. The latter is a harmless issue and common. They are small, raised, and painless. Oil glands that secrete too much oil end up clogging pores, and thus, we see these dots on the skin. Emotional tension or fluctuations in the levels of hormones could cause them. Usually, Fordyce spots do not require any treatment.
