Rashes may be caused by different reasons including bacteria, viruses, and fungi, and can result into major health implications if they are not treated.

Hi doctor, My age is 22, I have a gray hair since 5 years. So, how to reverse my premature gray hair. Suggest me some medicines.
Male | 22
Gray hair may show up sooner than expected. This results when the body produces less melanin pigment. Stress, heredity, and certain health issues contribute. There's no magic cure for gray, but lifestyle changes could help maintain healthy hair. A balanced diet, stress management, and avoiding smoking make a difference. If concerned, consult a dermatologist about premature graying.

Skin problem redness or pimples
Female | 46
Your skin problem might mean redness or pimples. Clogged pores, germs, or irritants could cause it. Use a mild cleanser to help. Don't touch your face too much. Look for salicylic acid in products. Stress and diet also matter sometimes. Drink lots of water. Try relaxing. Every person's skin reacts differently. If it doesn't improve, see a dermatologist.

I am a 24 year old female. I have been having these recurring pimples on my vagina for 10years now. My vaginal walls are scaly white and are often itchy. I don't have a weird discharge save for when am ovulating, a clear odorless discharge. I have never had sex because of my condition. I am also overweight with a BMI of 26.
Female | 24
You might have a medical condition known as lichen sclerosis. The main signs are the reappearance of small pimples, the vaginal walls that become white and scaly, and the sensation of itchiness. Obesity and sexual abstinence maybe your risk factors. A dermatologist should be consulted first for an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment. They may recommend some creams or medications to help controlling the symptoms and avoid complications.

I have a spot on the earlobe.Was dark,now is pink.Has a black Punct in the middle.I dont feel pain.What it is?
Female | 32
If you have a bump on your earlobe after getting a piercing, it might not hurt but can appear pink with a dark or black spot in the middle. These are often called piercing bumps and are usually caused by irritation or infection. Try cleaning it gently with saline solution and avoid touching or changing the piercing too much. If it doesn't improve or starts to hurt, please make an appointment to see a dermatologist soon for further assistance.

I have purple spots on my arm but i feel any pain
Male | 20
Red-purple dots may appear on your arm. They don't hurt. These come from tiny blood vessels bursting close to the skin's surface. This condition is called purpura. Purpura can happen due to small injuries or randomly. Most cases go away without treatment. However, if more spots show up, or other symptoms occur, or if purpura persists, you should see a dermatologist. This can rule out underlying health issues causing these spots.

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.

It seems to me that you have developed herpes zoster infection, but a dermatologist would judge better, so refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India. If you find your diabetes interfering with or complicating your conditions then you can contact me anytime as well.

Hi my name is Robin. I am really interested in PRP. I would like to know about the cost for PRP for hair and what kind of medicine and topical solution do you offer with PRP SESSIONS ? Thank you
Male | 28
PRP therapies are an excellent choice when done after proper examination. What is more important than the cost is to know that the examinations actually give a clear indication for it, and without which it's impossible to tell how many sessions will actually be required.
A two and half months course of prp and laser therapies costs approximately 20 thousand rupees.
Single session can cost up to 3500 Rs.
You may connect with any dermatologist for hair transplant in surat.

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

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.

I am 22years old female and have acne or my face for last few years. I have not taken any treatment before this. And my one more thing is I have acne which are filled filled with pus, kindly suggest me what to do? How I can get rid of it?
Female | 22
Acne can cause by hormonal changes, stress, genetics, or other factors. If you have acne that is filled with pus, it is likely that you have an infection. Consult a dermatologist as soon as possible in order to get the proper treatment. You may need topical medication, an antibiotic or other treatment to get rid of the infection and reduce the breakouts. Keep your skin clean and moisturized, avoid touching your face again and again, and limit your exposure to dust and pollution.

If i am using it should i use it daily or 5 times a weak
Male | 19
At this age, hair fall and thinning can be upsetting. These problems can be due to various factors like heredity, stress, diet, or hormonal changes. Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used together to stop hair loss and promote hair growth. It is best to visit a dermatologist to know how often to use them. Starting the treatment is the first step to improving your hair condition, but you should also be patient and wait for some time to see the results.

Hello doctor please I have STI which is itching me seriously and I have reddish pimples on my pennis itching me
Male | 30
You may be suffering from a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that can lead to the problem of open wounds and eczema on the penis. These signs might be a clue to a syndrome called herpes or genital warts. These infections can be spread from one person to another through sexual contact. Diagnosis and treatment should be done by a sexologist. It is the best decision to put away sexual activity until you visit a doctor.

I am 23 years old and I did a breast surgery on 17th of march 2024 for removal of lump. The wound is yet to heal now. Few days after the surgery i noticed leakages from the stitches so i went back to the doctor then he stitched it again whivh made the healing process very slow. What can I do to heal the opened wound on my right breast? I find it difficult to bathe. I was prescribed ciprotab by the doctor and vitamin c (but I got the coloured ones instead) or should I have been using the white one? I already stopped the ciprotab
Female | 23
To help the wound heal, ensure that you keep it clean and dry, wash the area gently with some mild soap and water then dry. Any rough movements which might disrupt the stitches should be avoided. Consult with Your Doctor on the right type of vitamin C use, usually white because colored ones could have added ingredients. Should there be signs like increased pain, redness, swelling, or pus, then do seek medical Help immediately as this could mean infection.
