How to treat dark mark from cold sore?

Hello doctor , a cold sore under nose has left dark mark what to do regarding it

1 Answer

Answered on 6th Aug '24

You have a dark mark left after a cold sore under your nose. A herpes simplex virus causes a cold sore. The sore is a part of the healing process, but it can leave behind a dark spot. This is the usual case. To help it fade, you can try using a cream with ingredients like vitamin C or kojic acid. Sunscreen use is always the first and essential skincare routine. With time, it should get better.

Questions & Answers on "Dermatology" (2243)

I have red dots on my shaft (penis) and I can't figure out what they are, I've looked at pictures (regrettably) and none of them look like what I have. My first thought was pimples/acne, because I haven't had a good shower schedule nor have I had a good diet, but they don't look like pimples, they have black dots in the middle. I don't think it's itchy, at least the 4-5 bumps on the shaft, but I have maybe 2 or 3 on my scrotum that itch though. I thought bugs might be the issue but I've thoroughly checked my room and there are none. In terms of how they look, they're red, no white, 1 has black in the middle (maybe a growing hair?). I don't think it's any STIs since me and my girlfriend haven't had sex/sexual contact in months, it doesnt look like most of the ones i looked up, and this is only appearing now. I just don't know what to do about this and I need help diagnosing since I don't have the money for a doctors appointment.

It seems you're showing some alarming symptoms. The red bumps with black centers may be due to folliculitis (inflamed hair follicles), burn or a mild fungal disorder. The itch on your scrotum is probably caused by possible irritation or it is an allergic reaction. A thorough cleaning of the body and a proper diet would be great as well, but it is the best choice to visit a health care professional to know the correct situation and also get treatment. They have the capability to provide the relevant care and the necessary reassurance. As health should be your priority, always think about getting assistance when you have a problem.

Hairloss dandruff itching hair growth problem what can I use and what is the solution

Female | Zeenat

Hair loss, dandruff, itching, and hair problems can be associated with one another. Dandruff is a source of itchiness and hair fall. Stress, or not washing hair regularly, or a skin condition may give rise to dandruff. Cure with anti-dandruff shampoos. The itching can be satisfied with the help of gentle washing and using mild products. Hair growth can be boosted by a good diet and hair hygiene.

The range of causes of hair fall includes stress, bad diet, and hormonal disorders. Although home remedies are sometimes employed, it is imperative to see a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment. A dermatologist can identify the cause of your specific hair fall and offer individualized care, including the most effective treatment method.

I wanna use glutathione as my skin is getting darker

Female | 21

Some people wish for lighter skin, but glutathione may not help. Increased pigmentation can be caused by factors like UV rays or skin issues. Trying to change your complexion with glutathione can be risky and might not work. It’s better to focus on using sunscreen, staying hydrated, and eating a healthy diet to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

I am 18 years old teenager and I want to remove tanning from my whole body and I also want to reduce the melanin secretion in my body ..so please prefer me best kojic acid soap for daily use

Male | 18

Tanning is produced by the skin when it absorbs more sunlight. This is the process that involves melanin, a protein that protects the skin. To decrease tanning and melanin, try a kojic acid soap. This soap can decrease the melanin in your skin and thus brighten your skin's color. For best results, use it daily.
