Excessive hair shedding for an extended period can understandably cause distress. Having ruled out deficiencies through blood tests is a positive step. However, your Vitamin D deficiency may contribute to hair loss. Utilizing minoxidil topically could help, but oral minoxidil carries potential risks like low blood pressure and heart palpitations. Before initiating any new medication, I advise discussing the possibility of oral minoxidil with a dermatologist to carefully evaluate the pros and cons. Making an informed decision after considering all factors is crucial.

I am 28 yo female and recently got sclerotherapy done on both legs (last Wednesday so it has been over a week). My veins have gotten worse, they are purple and more visible and quite sensitive to the touch. There is no bruising. My dermatologist said I may have had an allergic reaction to the treatment and suggested I get antihistamines. Will the veins subside?
Female | 28
Veins do appear more visible naturally after sclerotherapy treatment, but they usually improve over time as the body reabsorbs the treated veins. Its best to discuss your concerns with your dermatologist and follow the recommended treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting or standing and to wear compression stockings as recommended to decrease swelling and heal faster.

This can happen for reasons such as infection, or the fact that you have an allergy. A swelling on both sides can be a realization of a systemic issue. To reduce the swelling, you can try a cold compress and head elevation. Drinking water and not eating salty foods can also be ways to better the condition. It's crucial to make an appointment with a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and cure.

how to remove drk black spot on face
Male | 58
Dark black spots on the face can get there because of sunburns, patches left by acne, or even hormone illness. Although they are sometimes totally harmless, most people do feel shy when looking at them in the mirror. Using gentle exfoliants like glycolic acid, applying precautions like using sunscreen daily, and getting treatments like laser therapy or chemical peels from a dermatologist can help lighten these spots over time.

I am woman age 22 acny on face
Female | 22
This is normal for your age. Acne happens when oil and dead cells clog hair follicles. This causes pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. Try gentle cleansers, avoid oily products, and don't pick your skin. Wash your face regularly with mild soap. You can also visit a dermatologist.

I have acne ...tiny bumps on my full face.. since may years...I want to get red from it
Female | 30
Skin conditions that are common to individuals of all ages include acne. It is marked by small bumps on the face and other areas of the body. These bumps are due to blockage of the pores and excessive sebum production. To avoid acne it is necessary to visit a dermatologist who specializes in diseases of the skin. They can prescribe treatments, including creams that you apply directly on the skin or take oral medication as well as other procedures recommended by doctors to make acne go away and not reoccur.

My face having to much pimple and acne.my skin type is oily which facewash and serum I use for my skin please give me suggestions
Female | 24
Oily skin is common and can lead to pimples and acne. The symptoms are so shiny skin, big pores, and sometimes breakouts. The cause of oily skin is the excessive sebum production by the skin. Salicylic acid face wash to unclog pores will suffice for this purpose. Oil control is also possible with a serum containing niacinamide.

I have a spot on my face on the right hand side it's red itchy and sore I need some help to get rid
Female | 38
You might be having some skin irritation. The common symptoms include redness, itchiness, and tenderness. One of the likely reasons could be that you are allergic to something touching your skin. You can get rid of it by applying a gentle unscented moisturizer and refrain from scratching it. If it doesn’t improve after a few days, you should probably see a dermatologist who can rule out any other potential problems.

I have lost half of my hair (majorly from middle and side of my head) in one year and my skin has became loose with wrinkles and I am only 24. What are the causes and remedies
Male | 24
If you are loosing hair at 24 years, that is most probably due to pattern hair loss or androgenetic alopecia which requires topical and oral medications. If medications are used within time, this will result in stopping the further hair loss and reversal of the hair loss as well. Said that proper diagnosis is mandatory before moving any further and a proper dermatology consultation is required for diagnosis and proper management

40 year old female shaved and used a cucumber baby wipe been itching every since 2 weeks now
Female | 40
The cucumber baby wipe might have reacted with your skin causing the itch. This means the itch can be as a result of irritation or an allergy. To calm the itch down, try using a mild moisturizer that does not contain perfume. Stop using any more products on the affected area for now. If the itchiness continues or becomes worse, it would be best to see a dermatologist.

Hello, can someone with syphillis with a 1:2 titer still be infectious?
Male | 28
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 suddenly move Rajasthan here temprature 48° my full body back sunburn skin damage and full body itching and pimples redness please suggest me best cream and moisturizer for speedy recovery
Male | 26
This happens when the sun’s rays damage your skin; it makes it turn red and sometimes itch or even have bumps that look like pimples. A mild lotion containing aloe plus some moisturizer should be applied frequently to speed up treatment. For now, however, take much fluid since this will help speed up recovery too; rest in a cool place without being exposed again until things get better.

Stretch marks are almost permanent. You can reduce it to an extent. but not completely make it erased. You have to take laser PRP treatment for that.

Iam 23 years of old male having oily skin,acni and pigmentations please tell serum, moisturizer ,facewash and sunscreen Please tell products names ????⚕️????⚕️
Male | 23
If you're dealing with oily skin, acne, pigmentation, or other skin issues, I recommend using "The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%" serum. This product helps reduce sebum production and acne occurrence. For moisturizing, try "Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30" to keep your pores clear. You might also like "Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash," which is gentle on skin affected by impurities. To protect your skin from sun damage, apply "CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30." These products can help give your skin a radiant appearance.

I am 24 yrs old i m hair loss around the penis please give suggestions
Male | 24
The penis area hair loss reason can be different. The rubbing of garments or activities is a common one. Also, psoriasis or fungal infections may cause hair to drop in that location. Use antidandruff medicine if it itches or appears red, keep it neat and dry besides dressing with comfortable clothes regularly is essential for preventing more hair fall in this region.

Dr. I Have frequent swelling on one side of my tongue. Looked and saw nothing. There is no difficulty in eating. It's a terrible stretch and not even a braise. It's been a few days the docter. Showed me that it was an ulcer and gave me medicine. But there was no change. What is the docter? It's not like this all the time. Comes and goes. Frome time to time. When it occurs. There is a terrible brain fog. Why are you afraid to say something like this? No teeth chatter sometimes it happens. In the morning, or in the afternoon, or in the night or in a day, sometimes if it happens today, it wont happen tomorrow and the next day its like the ?
Female | 24
Tongue swelling could be due to an oral ulcer, and it may cause discomfort and other issues like fatigue and teeth chattering. Avoid spicy foods, maintain gentle oral hygiene, and if the swelling persists or medication doesn’t help, I recommend consulting a dentist or oral surgeon for further treatment options.

The inner thighs may darken due to many reasons. Rubbing thighs together, hormonal changes, excessive sweat, and being overweight can cause it. To lighten dark areas, keep them clean and dry. Wear loose clothes. Use skin-lightening creams. If darkness remains or worsens, see a dermatologist for advice.

But my problem is not solved... It's been cleared in some area and grown in other with same moderate symptoms and also eye pain and headache What to do sir / madam please help
Male | 27
Pimples on your forehead and scalp may signify acne. Medicines don't cure it; special treatment is required. Benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid can potentially help. However, Cosvate GM plus cream should be avoided. It might worsen symptoms like pain, itch, and redness. Eye pain, headaches too seems connected to this problem. So, discussing all symptoms with a dermatologist is vital. Get proper evaluation and advice for comprehensive acne management.
