Allergy on body after giving antibiotic medicine

Allergic reactions to antibiotics are a common issue, resulting in itching or welts on the body. It is essential to stop using the antibiotic at once and see a doctor. An allergist or an immunologist is going to be able to diagnose and manage the allergy.

I'm having big stretch marks on body.

Female | 20

Stretch marks are common and appear when the skin is stretched significantly. They can be purple, red, or silver, depending on how long they’ve been there. Causes include rapid growth, weight changes, and pregnancy. Solutions include using moisturizers, and creams, and maintaining a healthy weight. While they usually fade over time, they may not completely disappear.

25 year old men, i have bumps on my penis, top left part, seems like herpes, im not sure, my groing is itching

Male | 25

Lumps that develop near the penis may be caused by several factors. They may be herpes if they're either tender or similar to blisters. Moreover, among other signs, you might also experience some irritation in the groin. Herpes is an infectious virus that can be transmitted from one individual to another through sexual intercourse. However, to make sure, it is better to visit your healthcare provider and undergo the necessary tests. Proper medication and expert advice are necessary for the prevention and care of it.

I had an operation on back side of my head in which the area was infected with an infection called carbuncle and it was cut to remove it and then the skin there regenerated soon, but its 3 years and the hair there hasn't grown yet. the diameter of that are is approx 5cm. Is there any other way to get hair back without hair transplant?

Male | 14

I recommend that you see a dermatologist for this issue. The scar tissue that resulted from the surgery might have injured the hair follicles, thus depriving them of any regrowth. Unfortunately, there is no scientifically based treatment to re-grow hair in scar tissue except by means of a transplant. Some topical treatments may be prescribed by a dermatologist

Iam 20 years old female. I want to know why I loss upto about 8-10 eyebrows hair daily. Is eyebrow hair falling is normal or not. What should I do to stop it?

Female | 20

Some hair on the eyebrows falls out each day as part of the natural hair growth cycle, which involves transitions through the growth, resting, and slipping phases. Causes such as anxiety, nutrient deficiencies, uneven hormone levels, or too much plucking might cause hair to fall out excessively. In order to foster the development of healthy hair, consider eating a nutrient-rich diet, drinking water, and not using products that can harm your hair such as perming and coloring. If the hair vasculature starts to thin or you get areas, or the hair loss remains, it is best to see a medical professional.

My uncle is suffering from tongue Cancer and by mistake I gave him the liquid which we apply on outer inquiry then what can I do what is its side effects

Male | 58

When it comes to ingesting a liquid not meant for internal use, it may be harmful. There are some side effects such as stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, or dizziness. These symptoms are a result of the tongue quickly absorbing the substances. Please immediately visit a doctor if you notice any of these symptoms. It's crucial to let the doctors know about the mistake, and they will give you the right treatment.

I am 23 year old male, i have tinea versicolor from years. Till now I haven't taken any oral medical or any cream. How to cure it? Its from my childhood days. Location of tinea: only back( upper back left side) WHITE PATCHES Area: one palm size. It neither increases nor decreases. No other symptoms. Please guide

Male | 23

Tinea versicolor can be treated with antifungal creams. Please apply it to the affected area twice a day for 2 weeks. If you don't see any improvement, please try oral antifungal. Also, keep the area dry and clean and avoid wearing tight clothes as this can make the affected area sweaty. If the problem does not go away still, please consult a doctor for the same.
