Answered on 2nd July '24
You have the feeling that you're the one who has combat acne and/or oily skin, and you have been on Isotretinoin for a few months. Acne can reoccur due to the treatment, particularly if the skin is oily. On a positive note, the greasy skin can draw congestion to the pores and form swellings. Wash your face gently, use oil-free products, and consult with a dermatologist if your acne comes back. They can modify your treatment program.

My mother has developed red patches on skin all over her body. Initially it occurs as a small red patch and then it widens and spreads . These red patches have occurred on her neck, breast, tummy, legs, head, back, elbow , everywhere. She has also developed cuts on her finger. It itches and burns very much. What is the diagnosis of this skin disease?
Female | 55
Your description of the symptoms leads me to believe that your mother has a skin condition called eczema. Eczema is characterized by the appearance of red, itchy patches on the skin. It can be caused or aggravated by certain substances or environmental factors. To alleviate the symptoms, it is necessary to maintain the skin's hydration and avoid irritants. Using mild soaps and wearing comfortable, breathable clothes can also be helpful.

I'm 30. I noticed a pale reddish skin at the cap of my penis. There is no inching or pain but it keeps drying and peeling off.
Male | 30
You may have a condition known as balanitis. When the skin on the tip of the penis becomes irritated, this can occur. It can be caused by poor hygiene, fungal infections or allergies. Even if it doesn’t hurt, keep the area clean and dry. Using a mild cream may also help with the peeling skin. If it doesn’t improve, it’s best to see a dermatologist.

Stress, poor diet, hormone changes, and genetic factors contribute to increased shedding. If hair loss seems excessive or causes concern, consider consulting a dermatologist for guidance.

doctor i am having itchy and pain near my upper thighs but not on my vagina please help its so itchy and pain like there are some pimples and like some rash
Female | 20
You might be suffering from a type of skin infection known as folliculitis. This occurs when hair follicles accumulate bacteria. The symptoms you mentioned are typical of this problem: itchy, painful, pimples, and red, bumpy rashes. Excessive heat, humidity, friction of clothes, or shaving irritation can cause it. Keeping the area clean and dry is a good way to recover and loose clothes might help to relieve the pain. Another way to reduce the discomfort is by applying a warm compress on the affected area. A dermatologist should be consulted if there is no improvement.

I got many cysts on penis and surrounding again and again. whenever I get Softin tablet it disappears ,but whenever I stop to take Softin, It will appear again.
Male | 29
Sometimes, little fluid-filled bumps form on the penis. These are called penile cysts. Blocked glands may cause them. Softin tablets ease swelling, so stopping them lets cysts return. Don't ignore persistent cysts—a dermatologist should examine them. Proper treatment is crucial. They'll check for any underlying condition triggering these recurring bumps. Cysts aren't dangerous, but proper care matters.

You likely have ringworm affecting your groin region and leg area. This common fungal infection creates reddish, itchy, scaly skin patches. It spreads easily through contact with infected people or animals. To treat, use over-the-counter antifungal creams/sprays. Keep that area clean, and dry - aiding healing. If there is no improvement, see a dermatologist.
