You are suffering from a band called pilonidal cysts. These swellings may lead to discomfort and soreness in the rear end. Pilonidal cysts are the results of hair follicles blocking each other. If you are looking for natural remedies, you can use warm compresses and over-the-counter pain relievers to ease the pain. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

I noticed a small circle which is purpley black on my penis around the outside and more purple in the middle do I need to be worried
Male | 15
The purple-black circle around your penis area could be a bruise. Or, it might be a blood vessel you can see now. Maybe it happened from an injury. Or, some friction during physical activities caused it. If it doesn't hurt or itch, it will probably heal by itself. But, if you see any changes or feel discomfort, talk to a dermatologist. They can check it out and make sure everything's okay.

Itching problems now 7 days
Female | 19
Irregularities like dry skin, allergies, bug bites, and some skin conditions can cause itching. If you haven't changed any products or detergents recently, try applying a moisturizing lotion, taking oatmeal baths, or using a cold compress to ease the itching. However, if the problem persists, consider visiting a dermatologist.

Iam 20 year female. I have a burned scar on my cheeks. Is there any remedy to cure and leave the scar as soon as possible?
Female | 20
Injuries can be the result of heat, chemicals, or sun exposure. Until then, keep the area clean and do not scratch it. The application of aloe vera or honey can help to relieve the scar. With time, it will become less noticeable, but be careful as scars are slow to vanish. It is not enough to wear a hat in the sun, make sure you also avoid getting darkened by it.

Skin fungus can cause redness. It can be itching, redness, and sometimes a rash may appear on the skin. It is usually caused by the growth of fungi in warm and moist areas of the body. You should monitor the affected area by regularly washing it. Moreover, you should use antifungal creams as well for treatment. Visit a dermatologist for a proper treatment.

I have pimples what is the best treatment for pimples and also acne and how to remove tan
Female | 15
Pimples, acne, and tan are usual skin problems. Red bumps are the assets of the pimple, while a bunch of pimples adds up to a pimple. They are the result of both oily skin and dirt on it. The face can be washed twice a day to achieve this. Implements such as benzoyl peroxide can be used to cure them. Tan is dark skin which is the result of the sun. Using sunscreen can prevent this. Getting rid of the tan takes time, use the skin-lightening creams or laser treatments instead.

I have been facing vaginal itching and inflammation over the past two years. Also on my inner thighs. It comes and goes. As you mentioned i also suspected yeast infection. And i ve been using candida b ointment for over an year now. And still there's no change. It comes and goes all the time. My eyelids also started getting irritated , without any itching. And the infection has not spreaded to anywhere over the past two year. Is there any medication i must try ? Or should i consider any pap smear ?
Female | 24
Vaginal itching and redness could be induced due to several things like yeast infections. If the candid B ointment hasn't done the work, consider other possibilities too. As the infection has not expanded, I diagnose it as a local problem. Make an appointment with a dermatologist for health assessment and treatment suggestions.

I am a 19 year old female. I have had a red patch on the inside of my upper lip for around 4 and a half weeks that hasn’t gone. Sometimes it’s painful, and it regularly tastes metallic. I’m not sure what this is or how to treat it
Female | 19
You may be dealing with a condition called oral lichen planus, which can cause painful red spots in your mouth that taste metallic. Don't worry, it's not contagious. The exact cause is unknown, it might be linked to the immune system. To ease the discomfort, avoid hot or sour foods and use mild mouth rinses while keeping your mouth clean. If these tips don't help or your symptoms worsen, make an appointment with a dermatologist to get a proper diagnosis and discuss further treatment options.

I am 19 yr olg I am effected to fungal acne on my face from past 2 months ,I also followed a treatment but it's not working instead of reducing its evan making more worse , I am so insecure abt my skin I can't even explain, I feel so disappointed evan to go to my college..... so can please suggest me a skin care which will help to clear completely and as soon as possible
Female | 19
Fungal acne may appear as very small pimples on your skin, especially the face area. It is by the yeast that lives on your skin. For it to get cleared off, use a non-irritating wash with salicylic acid, unhitch thick creams, and introduce antifungal substances such as tea tree oil. I want you to appreciate the process; it may require some time before you see a difference.

I suggest that you visit a dermatologist who is capable of diagnosing the type and level of the fungal infection. The treatment plan will be based on the diagnosis. Prescription of the suitable antifungal medication will be done followed by advice on hygiene practices to prevent further infection.

I have fungal infection ringworm
Male | 16
Ringworm is a cutaneous infection which a fungus causes. Symptoms such as red, itchy, and scaly spots that look like circles may occur on the skin. The ringworm can be transmitted through contact with infected people, pets, or objects like shared towels. Therapy involves antifungal creams or tablets. You can also prevent the spreading of the infection by keeping the area clean and dry.

I have a sore on top of my head at first it started out like a pimple but now it is has spread and is it Hy and sore what could it be
Male | 46
These happen when bacteria get into hair follicles or oil glands, causing infection. To treat it, you should use warm compresses on the area. This helps drain it and heal it. Don't pick or squeeze the sore! That could make the infection worse. Keep the area clean by washing it gently. You can also try over-the-counter antibiotic ointments to aid healing. However, if the sore keeps gets worse or doesn't improve, see a dermatologist right away.

Female | 21
You may have dyshidrotic eczema. It looks like small blisters on hands, fingers, and feet. Irritants, allergies, or stress cause this condition. Though not itchy, blisters feel painful sometimes. Keep hands and feet cool and dry. Use mild products. Avoid triggers like certain soaps or foods. If it worsens, see a dermatologist.

Hi i am facing hair fall problem can i take keraboots tablet
Female | 21
Hair loss is a big problem for many people and the causes can be different like stress, bad nutrition, or hormonal imbalance. Keraboots tablets potentially can mitigate your hair fall issue as they are filled with the vitamins you are missing out on. However, proper nutrition which includes a well-balanced diet and caring for your hair should be the foundation of a healthy lifestyle. If the problem still does not go away, it is wise to talk to a dermatologist for more guidance.

Hi there im a 47 year old black male I went to a traditional circumsation I'm now on 5weeks the foreskin went back to the head like uncircumcised and is swollen but not paining
Male | 47
You might be having a case of paraphimosis. This is the condition when the foreskin is stuck behind the head of the penis and it becomes swollen. It is crucial to first try to push the foreskin back over the head very gently to take away the swelling. If it still doesn't go back or worsens, you should see a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I am 21 yrs old male I have like rash, blisters forming in my inner thigh Which is itching
Male | 21
You are going through a simple condition called jock itch. This occurs mostly in men and is due to a rash, scratching, and blistering in the area of your inner thighs. Excessive perspiration, chafing, or even a fungal infection might be the cause of this. To make this easier, make sure the area is kept clean and dry, don't wear tight clothing, and use antifungal creams or powders. If the condition does not improve, visit a dermatologist.
