Hi doctors, My mother who is 50 yrs old is facing excessive sweating from 2 years, we hve checked her BP, sugar and thyroid which are normal, but I'm not understanding which doctor to consult regarding this excessive sweating.

Answered on 20th Aug '24
Hyperhidrosis, or excessive sweating, is annoying. The reasons for the sweating can be other than normal BP, sugar, and thyroid of your mother. The medications, menopause, stress, or health problems that are hidden might lead to such a situation. A dermatologist with a focus on skin problems will be the best choice. They can help pinpoint the cause of the sweating and recommend treatments.

Sir i have hair fall problem can i do Keratin
Female | 33
Yes, you can undergo a Keratin hair treatment to help reduce hair fall. Keratin treatments are designed to help strengthen and nourish the hair and reduce breakage. However, it is important to keep in mind that Keratin treatments should not be used as a primary treatment for hair loss. You should speak to your doctor to determine the underlying cause of your hair loss and the best treatment options for you.

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 ringworm for almost 4 months .some of the ringworm in my inner thighs and now in pubic area too.Some of them under my breast too.applied clotrimazole, terbinafine ointments. But didn't worked.What should I do
Female | 18
It looks like you have bad case of ringworm which did not respond to the OTC medicines. I suggest that as soon as possible you see a dermatologist who specializes in fungal infections. They may give you oral antifungal medicine and topical treatment to improve the result. Seek urgent medical care since untreated ringworm can cause problems.

Treatment for razor bumps in bikini area, have used ketoconazole cream for it but still no result would love the assistance of a dermatologist here to help out with the treatment
Female | 21
Razor bumps in the bikini area are a common cause for concern. Injuries to follicles that occur through shaving are usually behind these bumps. They are typically red, itchy, and with small bumps. When ketoconazole cream does not help, another alternative is the use of a mild hydrocortisone cream that can help to control inflammation. Put on some lotion to the part all the time so it stays moisturized.

You've noticed chin hair and swelling in the morning, plus weight gain for 2 months. These could signal hormone changes, thyroid issues or fluid buildup. Seeing a dermatologist is crucial - they'll check symptoms, order tests if needed, and advise treatment so you feel better soon.

Female | 26
Blisters in the genital area may result from infections, irritation, or allergic reactions. Accompanying symptoms could include itching or discomfort. It’s crucial to avoid self-diagnosing and instead seek a dermatologist's evaluation for accurate identification and appropriate treatment. In the meantime, keep the area clean and dry, and avoid any potential irritants. Remember, timely medical advice is essential for effective management and peace of mind.

My auntie is 61 years old, she has been having these open injuries, i suspect it to be skin ulcer. She has been taking antibiotics like Amosiklave 625mg and Itacare. Although she stopped recently. She's in pains and can barley walk.. please should she continue and what else do you recommend.
Female | 61
Open wounds can be painful and may indicate an underlying issue like a skin ulcer, often caused by factors such as poor circulation or prolonged pressure. While antibiotics may help prevent infection, she must seek medical attention to assess her condition properly. Continuing medications without guidance could be ineffective or harmful. Encourage her to visit a dermatologist who can provide a tailored treatment plan, possibly including proper wound care, pain management, and further evaluation.

Hello i am 21 years old, I did an ankle tattoo on Tuesday and since then my foot is hurting me specially when I walk, I don't know if it's relatable but I got my ankle sprained 6months ago so I don't know if I shouldn't do it on the samw ankle, I'm worried if there's something danger or it's normal and the pain will fade away soon, please if you can help me thank you
Female | 21
It is totally normal to get some pain and abrasions after getting a tattoo, especially when it comes to ankles because ankles have the thinnest skin. But the pain that lingers or gets worse strongly suggests a medical concern. In this case, one should definitely visit a doctor, ideally a dermatologist, in order to exclude or confirm the possibility of infection or an allergic reaction. With your past ankle sprain history, it would be advantageous to talk an orthopedist too, and to watch that the your tattoo is not interfering with the healing process.

Hi sir. Some thing happened on my chest like acne.it old and fresh also can u pls suggest me
Male | 35
It sounds like you may be experiencing a skin condition that could range from acne to other types of lesions. Factors like hormonal changes, stress, or skin irritation can contribute to such issues. It’s vital to keep the area clean and avoid irritating products. Over-the-counter treatments containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid may help reduce inflammation. However, if symptoms worsen or persist, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. A doctor can provide a precise diagnosis and tailored treatments.

My son who is 16 years old and now witnessing acnes on the face. We, as parents, little sceptical about taking some high dose of medicine so need your help as want to consult someone who deals with children. Thank you
Male | 16
It is a consequence of the closure of the openings in the skin due to the accumulation of sebum and dead skin cells. This will cause pimples on the face more so during the teenage years. Gently cleansing the face with a non-irritating cleanser twice a day. Do not squeeze or prick. If severe acne is the case, you should consult a dermatologist for appropriate treatments.

What medication can I take to cure the infection (itchy rashes on my private part and yansh)?
Male | 20
A rash affecting your intimate areas may indicate a yeast or bacterial infection. This condition is widespread, so there's no need for embarrassment. For treatment, a doctor could recommend an antifungal cream or antibiotic ointment. Maintain cleanliness and dryness in the affected region. Wear loose-fitting garments. Refrain from scratching to expedite healing.

My left leg is wounded and have swelling by itching.
Male | 56
Looks like you got a wound in your left leg that’s swollen and itchy. Swelling and itching can occur when the body is healing a wound. It might be infected or irritated. To relieve these symptoms, ensure the wound is clean, use a mild antiseptic, and elevate your leg to reduce swelling. Change dressings frequently to prevent infection.

I recently had a anal warts removal surgery
Male | 26
Following your recent surgery to remove anal warts, it's essential to monitor your healing process. Symptoms may include mild discomfort or changes in bowel habits, which are generally normal as you recover. Anal warts are commonly caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV), and while the procedure removes visible growths, it's crucial to practice safe habits to prevent recurrence. Maintaining hygiene, avoiding irritants, and scheduling follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider can ensure effective care. If you notice any unusual symptoms or have concerns, please consult your dermatologist for personalized advice.

I have bumps on my pubic area.. some are big and some are small. Sometimes there are open cuts around the bikini area that just pop up out of nowhere and bleed.. i just want to know what this is and is it curable
Female | 21
You might have something called folliculitis, which is a pretty common condition. This is when the hair follicles get infected and it causes bumps with sometimes open cuts. Wearing tight clothes or shaving can both cause this by a rubbing or friction though. Treatment involves keeping the area clean, not wearing tight-fitting clothing and applying warm compresses. If these things don’t work then definitely see a dermatologist.

Female | 19
Your description points to a yeast infection. It happens when an imbalance of yeast occurs in the body. You mentioned dryness and a slight odor, without itching or burning. Over-the-counter antifungal creams can help treat this condition. Also, doctor-prescribed medicines are available. Keep the affected area clean and dry. If there's no improvement, get it checked by a dermatologist.

You might be experiencing hyperpigmentation, where skin appears darker due to various factors like sun exposure, hormonal changes, or inflammation. Even with sunscreen, some individuals may still notice darkening. It's important to assess your skincare routine and consider factors such as the type of sunscreen and its application. Ensure you're applying it liberally and reapplying regularly, especially during prolonged outdoor activities. For persistent or concerning changes, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. They can provide personalized advice and treatment options to help your skin recover and restore its natural tone.
