Why do I have added areola around nipples?
Hi doc, I have an added areola around my nipples it's not dark in color it's just a light brownish thing with some little hairs that are growing, I went on my periods fully, but they came early because of the emergency pill I used. I then took two pregnancy tests after seeing the change in my breasts and they were all negative I'm curious now what could cause the change

Answered on 10th June '24
The emergency pill can cause hormonal changes, and this might result in breast changes such as an extra areola that is light brown with some hairs. Even if the pregnancy tests are negative, there could still be hormonal fluctuations leading to variations in breasts. Most likely, it is nothing serious and will return to normal soon. Watch out for it but if you are worried about anything then feel free to ask a doctor for advice.

Which treatment is best for vitiligo in children below 5 years, homeopathy, ayurveda, or allopathy? What treatment is given to kids for focal vitiligo above lips?
Male | 3
The best treatment for vitiligo in children below 5 years old would depend on the severity of the condition. Generally, topical corticosteroids are the most commonly used treatment for vitiligo in children, and they are used in combination with other treatments like phototherapy, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and systemic immunomodulators. For focal vitiligo above the lips, the treatment of choice is usually topical corticosteroids. Additionally, topical immunomodulators and phototherapy can be used in combination with topical corticosteroids to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. Homeopathy, ayurveda, and other alternative treatments can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, but should be discussed with a doctor before starting.

Brown tag bump on stomach
Male | 29
These lumps, also known as skin tags, are quite harmless. Skin tags are little soft fleshy growths that can develop on the skin. Though generally painless, skin tags may sometimes become irritated by clothes or jewelry catching on them. The exact cause for these tags is unknown, but it may be due to friction from rubbing against other areas or hormonal changes during pregnancy or puberty. If you find the skin tag bothersome, do not worry as they can easily be removed through simple procedures done by a dermatologist. Keep an eye on it and if there is anything about its size/color/shape that worries you or is different from what was there before.

I have very uneven skintone and pimples. I am looking to get a clear face skin.
Female | 20
The uneven skin tone could be due to pigmentation caused by acne. It can be treated with certain depigmentation or lightening creams like kojic acid, arbutin, etc. Also, the golden rule is to always apply sunscreen to prevent exacerbation of the existing pigmentation and also for its prevention. You can also consult Dermatology for further information.

I am 18 year old last month i got pimple on my face and i just pinch it off everytime and now i have black spot on my face and i just want to get rid of it what should i do i can share picture if you want!!
Female | 18
It seems like you’ve got post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation after popping your zits. These can result in dark marks on your face. To fade them away, consider trying out products that contain vitamin C, niacinamide, or kojic acid as ingredients. Sun protection is key since UV rays can worsen the appearance of these spots. Also, remember not to irritate your skin further to avoid more dark spots.

Male | 23
Seems like the problem is fungal in the intimate area. This is what's causing the itching and the pimple-like bump. The most important thing is to keep the area clean and dry so the healing can take place. Avoid rubbing or scratching the area as it can make it worse. You can try using an antifungal cream to help clear up the infection. Make sure to wear loose-fitting underwear and don't wear tight clothing as this will result in faster healing of the area.

Sir/mam I had itchy red bumps on scrotum and buttocks and thighs. Previously I had scabies then doctor prescribed scabest lotion then for a 1 month I was totally fine but after that i had bumps on scrotum, buttocks and thighs without fluid(pus) in them. they are really discomfort. Please tell me what should I do now. Thanks ❤
Male | 20
It sounds like you may be experiencing a recurrence of scabies, or it could be another skin condition. I advise you to see a dermatologist or a specialist in sexually transmitted infections (STIs) to get a proper diagnosis. They may recommend a different medication or treatment plan based on the underlying cause of your symptoms.

Hello Doctor, From last couple of days I have developed a small red boil on the shaft of penis, it pains on touch. The appearance is small round red in colour with no pus formation and it pains a lot especially on touch or on friction. Kindly advise medications for the same. Thanks and Regards
Male | 40
You may have developed a condition called folliculitis. It happens when hair follicles get inflamed, usually due to friction or bacteria. The red bump on the penis shaft with pain and tenderness can be typical symptoms. For now, you can try warm compresses to help reduce pain and inflammation. Don't touch or squeeze it. If it doesn't improve or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

My father is suffering from scrotum enlarged issue . So suddenly we have admitted him in tata main hospital but after some test (x ray . sonography of scrotum, ultrasound of abdominal, eco , ) he found scrotum wall cellulitis issue and giving him medicine and antibiotics for cellulitis infection . But still it's been 5 days we have not found any improvement of my father health .
Male | 61
It's natural to worry when there is no improvement, Scrotal wall cellulitis usually pops up with some redness and discomfort. Similarly, known causes can be due to infection from bacteria. Usually, the ways we can provide relief by the use of antibiotics but not everyone go smooth at the beginning of recovering. In case your father does not exhibit any positive signs after 5 days, this is a valuable time for him to get a check-up with his doctors. They can do all the necessary examinations and propose some treatments that might help him. On the other hand, a doctor's surveillance and prescription are important if you want to cope with such infections.

Sir i have too many open pores and oily skin and face is not tight face skin is loose. I want to know about treatment options
Male | 26
A common cause of oily skin and enlarged pores is an overproduction of sebum, hormonal changes, or genetic predisposition. Decreased skin elasticity with age is the result of the decrease in skin elasticity, thereby making you look loose. Tackling them with the addition of soft exfoliation, lack of comedogenic moisturizers, and the purchase of products, which contain those like salicylic acid or retinol, to help smooth the texture, can get rid of them. In other ways, treatments such as chemical peels or laser therapy may have a great impact on your skin condition. I suggest you make a connection with the dermatologist so that you can get the best advice based on your skin type and condition.

Male | 20
The itchy red bumps on your scrotum, buttocks, and thighs could indicate a fungal infection or dermatitis. These areas are prone to such skin issues. While clotrimazole provides temporary relief, the condition keeps recurring. For an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment, consulting a dermatologist is advisable. Meanwhile, maintain hygiene in the affected regions. Avoid scratching to prevent further irritation. Wear loose, breathable clothing to minimize discomfort.

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.

How do I get rid of purple stretch marks on bum.
Female | 14
Stretch marks on the bum are pretty normal. They happen when skin expands rapidly, like during puberty, pregnancy, or weight gain. Basically, the marks form when deeper layers tear. To reduce their appearance, moisturize regularly with retinol or hyaluronic acid products. Proper nutrition and hydration can lend a hand too. Keep in mind, fading takes time, so stick with the routine patiently. The marks look purple at first, but gradually lighten over months.

It seems like you may feel uncomfortable or exposed in a vulnerable situation. Among the major causes to request the help of a doctor are the progress of new diseases, sensations that are not normal at all, and other distressing signs. The most important thing is to have a frank conversation with a medical professional who can identify your specific needs in a more detailed manner. In the case that you notice certain symptoms such as pain, giddiness, or any other health changes, make sure you consult a dermatologist.

Male | 54
You're having rashes under your thighs that won't disappear. The itchiness and rashes could result from skin irritation or fungal infection. Using rash cream didn't help, so you might require prescription cream from a dermatologist. Keep that area clean and dry; wear loose clothes. Don't scratch to avoid more irritation.

Can D rise 40,000 iu lead hair fall?? (Once per week)
Female | 20
An overdose of a large dosage of vitamin D, such as 40,000 IU weekly, can sometimes result in side effects, but hair loss is not a frequent one. Overdose symptoms of vitamin D include stomach upset, weakness, and frequent urination. Hair fall can be a potential result of a range of difficulties, such as stress, hormones, or nutrition restrictions. It is very important to share with the dermatologist any anxieties who can know your unique situation and help you find the right change or treatment. Moreover, keeping a proper diet and finding ways to cope with stress will also greatly help.
