Infectiousness of Syphilis with 1:2 Titer Explained
Hello, can someone with syphillis with a 1:2 titer still be infectious?
Dermatologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Syphilis, even with low levels, remains contagious. It spreads through intimate contact. The bacteria behind syphilis causes sores, rashes, fever, and body pains. But don't worry, antibiotics like penicillin can cure it. However, remember - symptoms disappearing doesn't mean the infection's gone. Getting proper treatment matters. So, be vigilant. If concerned, see a dermatologist now.

I am a 17 year old girl, recently I noticed some white small point sized or slightly bigger patches on my hips. I don't know what to do, but I'm afraid this might be some big disease.
Female | 17
It might be a common skin condition called pityriasis alba. This isn't something to worry about. Pityriasis alba can lead to pale patches on the skin, mainly on the face, neck, and arms. You can see them better in summer when your skin is darker. Dryness is what makes the skin turn lighter than it’s supposed to be, the reason for this happening is mostly because of dryness. You might also want to consider moisturizing your skin more often with lotion, or drinking plenty of water helps too. If there is no change after doing all these things then go to a dermatologist who will advise on treatment methods for this condition.

I have white patch on my lips
Female | 28
Different factors can cause white marks on the lips. One of the main reasons is a fungal infection named oral thrush. This can happen if the immune system is not strong enough. Besides, it might be pathological damage from bites. To get to this point, it is necessary to do that. If the situation does not get any better, the pain becomes unbearable, and a meeting with the dermatologist is probably inevitable to get a diagnosis and cure the disease.

I applied Voltaren gel on my face skin, a part of my skin color turned whiter or rose after (some days after stopping it). Some parts got darkened. A doctor told me that there is low melanin. What should I do please? Can my skin color be restored?
Male | 45
If you've noticed changes in your skin color after using Voltaren gel on your face, it's important to consult a dermatologist or healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance. Avoid self-diagnosis and seek medical help for personalized care.

Good morning I have acne marks problems ...and I tried many of the oilments home remedies etc ..but I couldn't get any result..there is a black spot on face due to pimple so if you suggest any oilment for it.it might be helpful
Female | 23
If its only acne marks, continuing your acne treatment with facewash and gels will improve it. Some topical agents also helps in removing the pigmentation and marks of the acne. Even Salic acid 20% gel at night on spots is helpful. Glyco 6 or Glycolic acid 6% is recommended for application on the face. Acne compatible sunscreen is also helpful. Chemical Peeling with glycolic acid or salicylic acid is useful

I am an 18 year old female who just moved to college. A few days ago one of my breasts got a red rash around the nipple area and a lump after. Now ot does not hurt and there is no rash but the lump is still there. Now this is happening to my other. What’s the chance this will go away by itself
Female | 18
The problem you might have is a type of eczema, which leads to red rashes and bumps on the nipples. Eczema can be brought on by skin irritation or allergic reactions to things. The good news is that asthma often gets better without treatment by avoiding things like soaps or perfumes that are too strong. Another way is to keep your skin hydrated. If it doesn't improve, it's best to have it looked at by a dermatologist.

Male | 17
Your specified problem will likely be a type of skin infection or allergy. Itching and whitish-red, the skin clearly presents an eczema's signs. Normally, it is caused due to being ringworm, eczema or dermatitis.
Firstly, make sure that the correct peeling is guaranteed through alcohol or proper skin care. If the problem deteriorates or the symptoms turn into the persistent ones, then it is better to consult a dermatologist.

I am 27 year old female . For past 2 days , I had a red slightly swollen pimple in my armpit & today I woke with lot of pain & swelling around that area ( I usually shave my underarms but this never happened before ) What medicine should I apply or take ?
Female | 27
You have an infected hair follicle in your armpit, causing pain and swelling. This often happens when bacteria enter small cuts from shaving. Applying a warm compress on the area a few times a day can help reduce the swelling. You can also use an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment to clean the area and speed up healing. If the pain and swelling don’t improve or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

Hi Doctor, I am suffering from skin itching and rashes in my groin and other private areas from a very long time. Especially in summer the itching intensifies and it's unbearable. Is there a permenante solution or treatment for this in ayurveda. Please help. I can consult with you in video conferencing.
Male | 46
Itchy, rashy skin down there is no fun, especially in the heat. This could be jock itch - a fungal thing. Nature's remedies like neem, turmeric, and aloe may help. Stay away from tight clothes. Keep the area dry and airy. Eat healthy foods.

I m 35 years old male. Last three days I got a sudden bump while rubbing my penis. The bump is not going away and I am also taking antibiotic tablet still no improvement
Male | 35
Antibiotics will not necessarily clear up every problem, as sometimes it is not even a bacterial issue. Be sure to watch for other symptoms like pain and changes in the look. Setting a meeting with a dermatologist is good advice and he will check you out thoroughly and suggest the best treatment. It is a must to have professional support for the proper identification and treatment.

Dear Doctor, Kindly advise some good medicines or remedies for Warts on face and neck as from 6-7 months iam facing this issue, earlier it was on one on my face but during the course of time it has rapidly increased in number and now I have almost 12-15 warts on the left side of cheek and 3-4 below the jaw line and recently have developed 2 warts on my forehead, It looks very ugly and for the same reason I'm unable to shave as while shaving the warts comes in contact with the razor and it gets bleed. Please suggest good medication for the same. Thanks
Male | 41
Warts on your face and neck may be the result of a virus known as HPV. It's a widely spread disease and can be easily transmitted. To help you get rid of them, try over-the-counter treatments such as salicylic acid. The warts may slowly peel away with this. Remember to be gentle while shaving to prevent skin irritation. If they are still bothering you, see a dermatologist for further recommendations.

Hi doc..i have this sour and white taste toungue for few months.scrap it off the next day it comes back..is it due to smoking and alcohol user..i dont have this problem before..ols help
Male | 52
You have a white sour taste in your mouth that won't go away even after scraping it off. According to my experience, this might be caused by smoking or alcohol which irritates the mouth hence this recurring problem. To solve this problem, reduce smoking and taking alcohol. Ensure that your teeth are always clean and don’t forget to scrape your tongue. If this doesn't work out for you then I would advise you to visit a dentist who will further guide you on what to do.

Male | 17
Vitiligo is a skin condition in which white patches appear on your skin due to the loss of pigment cells. You are applying Melbild lotion and Tacroz Forte, which can contribute to the pigmentation process on your skin. If you are not seeing any improvements after 6 months, you should probably consider discussing other treatment options with your dermatologist. Unfortunately, there is no remedy for white hair, but you can try using hair dyes to cover them up.

Hi. I have brown dots on my forehead and cheeks bones. I have been using vitamin c and la roche-posay effaclar duo with +M. But the dots are not going.
Female | 21
Brown splotches on the forehead or cheekbones may be due to a skin condition known as hyperpigmentation, which indicates that certain areas of the skin produce more melanin, in dark spots. The easiest way to improve the situation is to use skincare products with vitamin C and avoid sun exposure. Still, patients need to understand that it does take a little time. The use of sunscreen can help prevent the spots from getting darker. You can visit a dermatologist in case of failure.

Spot on my face please help me
Female | 38
A spot on your face can occur when your oil glands or sweat glands become blocked. Using a mild soap and water, cleanse your face gently twice a day. To avoid an infection, refrain from touching or squeezing the blemish. If it does not disappear or the size increases, make an appointment with a dermatologist as soon as possible. To clear it up, they might recommend lotions or other types of treatments.

Mere chest me dard ho raha hai or eyes me dard ho raha hai or chicks me dard hai
Male | 18
You're feeling the blood in your chest, your eyes are aching, and tenderness in your cheek area. In some instances, chest pain can be caused by heart problems. The reason behind the eye pain can be either the strain or infection. The cause of cheek pain may be a sinus problem. Ensure that you take breaks, consume water, and do not rub your eyes. If the pain persists, medical assistance should be sought to determine the exact cause and receive the appropriate treatment.

Greetings sir my daughter is four years old she was some what black with your suggestion I want her for skin whitening treatment which one is permanent for her chemical peel or Laser treatment please suggest me sir
Female | 4
Neither of these treatments is recommended for children under the age of 18. Chemical peels and laser treatments are not permanent skin whitening treatments. These treatments can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots, but they will not permanently lighten the skin.

I often get a lump on my neck left side over the neck bone whenever I lay downward but it gets normal if I move upwards or stand... It doesn't pain
Female | 18
You seem to have a swollen lymph node on your neck. These tiny glands act as filters, trapping viruses and bacteria. They swell when fighting infection. If it's painless and shifts with your movements, it's likely harmless. However, monitor its progress closely. Persistent swelling coupled with fever or unexplained weight loss warrants medical evaluation. Consulting a dermatologist offers assurance regarding any underlying condition.

hi my name is chloe and I think I'm having an allergic reaction but I'm not sure
Female | 20
You're having an allergic reaction, which happens when your body reacts to something foreign it has come into contact with. This can cause symptoms like redness, itchiness, swelling, or hives. Common triggers include food, animals, pollen, or certain medications. To relieve symptoms, you can take an antihistamine or use a cold compress on the affected area. If your symptoms are severe or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

Iam 36 years old I have oily skin with open pores I need some moisturizer for.my skin to.look fresh kindly suggest
Female | 36
You need a non-comedogenic moisturiser which doesn’t cause any breakout or add to the oily state of the skin. Squalene, ceramide containing moisturisers which do not block the pores are recommended for oily skin. Please consult a dermatologist for thorough analysis of your skin to get a customised prescription suitable for your skin. Each one has a unique skin and has to use best suitable products to maintain a healthy skin. Open pores can be reduced by using retinol containing creams at bedtime. If they are severe procedural treatments like laser toning, micro needling radio frequency can help.

Last night, while masturbating, i got a friction burn (of a size of pea) on my glans penis & it became reddish .... my semen came in contact with it for some minutes.... will it lead to the formation of anti sperm antibodies?
Male | 25
A friction burn on the penis head can make it red and uncomfortable, especially if semen touches it. However, the risk of developing anti-sperm antibodies from this is low. To aid healing, keep the area clean and avoid further irritation. If you notice any unusual symptoms or concerns, it's always wise to seek medical advice.
