The darkening of the skin, dark under the eyes, and hyperpigmentation you mentioned can happen due to hormonal changes during breastfeeding. The reasons are various; it can be hormonal changes or skin sensitivity that may cause pimples. The skincare products and medications your dermatologist prescribed are the right ones for your condition during breastfeeding. The facewash, serum, and sunscreen can contribute not only to the health of your skin but also to its protection from harmful sun rays.

How to stop hair thinning and how to stop hair loss
Male | 23
Hair can become thinner, with less volume, or even fall out, leaving bare patches. Genetics and hormones play a role, and stress isn't helpful. A poor diet can also contribute, as well as some medical conditions. If it persists, seek expertise from a dermatologist.

I am facing the issue of itching on cheeks, hands and back
Male | 30
Itching on cheeks, hands, and back could be due to:
- Dry skin
- Allergic reaction
- Eczema or psoriasis
- Bug bites or hives
- Medication side effect.
Try moisturizing, avoiding irritants, and OTC antihistamines. If symptoms persist, see a dermatologist.

The most common reasons behind this are allergies and skin irritation. You should pay attention to the products you use because they should not contain any harmful ingredients. To fight against this problem, moisturize well and avoid using soaps and chemicals that are too harsh.

Male | 25
Staphylococcus aureus often leads to skin infections, boils, and even more serious problems such as bloodstream infections. It's caused by bacteria that may be hard to completely remove from the body. If the usual treatments like augmentin were ineffective in getting rid of the infection, vancomycin recommended by your friend is worth considering. Vancomycin is an antibiotic usually used as a last resort for persistent staph infections, especially those that do not respond to other antibiotics. When using vancomycin, it is important to follow your doctor's advice on dosage and treatment duration.

I see some small white bumps along theglans of penis should I be worried about this
Male | 18
The small white bumps that are present on the head of the penis might be a sign of a condition known as Fordyce’s spots and are not harmful in any way. Nevertheless, it is highly suggested to consult a dermatologist or a urologist if you’re looking for a definitive diagnosis and guidance.

Male | 57
You might be suffering from eczema. Eczema is an inflammatory skin disease that can make you itchy and cause red bumps on the skin, which even bleeds if you scratch them hard. Different agents such as stress, allergies, or skin irritants can be the cause of it. You can also use skin gentle products and avoid triggers to achieve affability along with skin moisturization to help you. If the symptoms persist, consider discussing with a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment options.

I am having an issue with my hair loss .
Male | 26
Everyone is susceptible to experiencing hair loss at some point, which can stress you. Evidence of hair loss is a larger amount of hair in your shower or bed. The cause of this might be stress, your genetic makeup, or some health problems you might have. By inclusion of healthy eating in your life, stress management, and the use of chemicals, you can avoid losing hair. If the problem persists, approach a dermatologist.

Today in the morning I had a little mark like I was bitten by something one at the back of my hand the other near my elbow now both are really swollen and painful but they are not itchy as in the morning what could that be and what do I do cause I'm worried
Female | 18
You may be a victim of an insect or spider bite. In some cases, though, these bites can make a person swell and feel pain. Although it's not itchy right now, the reaction can be different in the future. To help, clean the bites gently with soap and water, apply a cold compress like a cool cloth, and take over-the-counter pain relievers for the discomfort. If the swelling doesn't go away or new symptoms appear, it's better to contact a dermatologist for advice.

I have pimples and acne on my face . What should I do?
Male | 15
This can happen when your skin gets too oily, pores get blocked, bacteria grows in them or hormonal changes take place. To help get rid of them, you can try washing your face with a mild soap often, don’t squeeze them, and keep your hands off your face. Over-the-counter creams or gels with benzoyl peroxide/salicylic acid may also work for you. Consider talking to a dermatologist for more help.

How many hair is good for transplant and how i should be caring? explain some major factor behind hair fall and ways to control it.
Male | 28
The number and type of graft you get will depend on your hair type, quality, color, and the size of the area where you will be getting the transplant. In general, the number of grafts for FUE hair transplant in one sitting of 6-8 hours, can go up to 2500-3000.
If you have a higher level of baldness, then you might need another session. However, it's the doctor who will decide how many grafts will be transplanted each day. You can reach out to me or any other dermatologist for hair transplant in Bangalore, or other cities wherever you reside.

Post acne erythema and macular erythematous scars are common in few individuals as the acne subside. Sometimes underlying Rosacea component may also contribute to redness. Oral isotretinoin itself can cause mild erythema as long as the drug is taken if sunscreen is not used appropriately. Quasi long pulse mode of QS yag laser, topical drugs like topical Ivermectin, metronidazole for underlying rosaceaetc are prescribed by the Dermatologists. Please consult a Dermatologist for the same.

I have a big mole on my neck that’s been there since birth. It makes me self conscious, and feels weird when I move it. How can I get it removed safely without going to a doctor, or what doctor can I go to for the least cost?
Female | 24
Take care when removing moles without the aid of a physician. If there is a large mole that changes shape or color, it may be necessary to have it examined by a dermatologist. These are doctors who specialize in skin and can provide a thorough evaluation. The best way to ensure that the mole is removed safely and inexpensively would be visiting a dermatologist.

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
Acne occurs when you have these red spots on your face caused by your skin producing too much oil. It's super common, especially during the teenage years. To help, you can use a face wash with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. These can clear up your skin by unclogging your pores.

My penis has a lot smegma and I’m very concerned because it hurts and when I tried to be also hurts and it’s stressing me out
Male | 14
You might be infected with a disease called balanitis. This may be the result of a collection of smegma underneath the foreskin, which causes reddening, swelling, and pain. It is a must to carefully clean the penis using warm water and a mild soap. Do not utilize aggressive chemicals. Meanwhile, if the pain continues or becomes more severe, be certain to set an appointment with a dermatologist for a more detailed examination and receive the treatment.

i am 17 year male and i am suffering from moderate phimosis suggest some steriod cream or tropical create to get rid of it
Male | 17
It seems like you're going through an issue of moderate phimosis which indicates that the foreskin is too tight and cannot be retracted. This can lead to discomfort or pain during activities such as biting water and cleaning. Use of a steroid cream like Betamethasone is likely to be helpful in loosening the skin. A dermatologist will guide you on the right amount of cream to use and where to apply it.

I am a 21 years old male and i have had acne since the age of 16. I took isotretinoin at the age of 19 and my acne cleared up but i had to go through the treatment with the pain of severe dry eyes, i didn't want the acne to come back. My acne got cleared up but i was left with dry eyes. I went to an eye doctor and got diagnosed with (MGD) and the doctor told me to put warm compress and take Omega-3 supplement and my eyes got better but now i got the acne back, and when i quit taking the omega 3 supplement my acne clears up but my eyes gets dry again.
Male | 21
Dry eyes you experience is meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), which can occur after taking isotretinoin. Supplements like omega-3s may help your dry eyes. However, they could worsen your acne. It's wise to consult a dermatologist to strike a balance between managing both conditions.
