Love Bite on Breast and Back: Normal or Concern?
Hi, I am a girl of 19 years old. My boyfriend has given me a love bite on my breast and on back. I wanted to ask if this is normal? As I am feeling a bit sick and feverish. I want to know if this is okay to feel such way? For more information, earlier when i got a love bite, it was on neck and i faced neck infection. I had neck swelling. It got okay after medications though. But I want to know if there are chances for swelling this time too? Something like this? Or will it be okay with time and nothing will happen? Please clear. Thanks

A love bite can cause fever and sickness, it's normal. Your boyfriend's bite on the breast and back may have let bacteria enter broken skin. This causes infection - swelling and tenderness. Clean the area, use warm compress, take pain meds if needed. But if pus appears or symptoms worsen, get medical help right away.

I found a bump on the side of my left breast. When I looked it was an open sore. This is not the first one to appear - but this one is worse, as it is sore to touch. I am planning on seeing a doctor this week. But what do I do?
Female | 19
Bumps and open sores can be caused by various conditions, from skin infections and cysts to breast cancer. I'm glad you have a doctor's appointment this week. In the meantime, keep the area clean and dry, avoid squeezing or picking at it, and wear loose-fitting clothes. Early detection and treatment save lives, so don’t miss your appointment.

I am 18 years old and I have dark circle under in my eyes
Male | 18
The dark circles under your eyes can be annoying. The reasons might be lack of sleep, stress, or even allergies. However, rubbing your eyes a lot can also be the reason. Try sleep management, stress management, and not rubbing your eyes for a while. You can use cold compresses or eye cream as well.

External haemorrhoids without pain . But has some mass that doesn’t itch or makes it any hard for bowel moment .. suggest me some cream
Female | 21
If it is true that you have external hemorrhoids, then it means those swollen blood vessels around your back passage are the ones to blame. They may be harmless, but you feel that a bulging mass. This could be the case as well due to straining when having a bowel movement, pregnancy, or sitting in one position for a long time. To make your pain less severe, you can use the medication for hemorrhoids which you can buy without a prescription, or use ointments such as Preparation H. Spread it out over the affected area as the label says. Don't forget to include high-fiber foods in your diet, drink a lot of water, and try to be active. If the condition continues or worsens, go to a gastroenterologist for a thorough examination and advice.

Hii iam girl of 25 yr age suffering acne from 11 yrs from 3 yr suffering from cystic acne Iam planning to take Accutane for 6 months I want advice from dr should I take it or not my weight is 45
Female | 25
You should consult with a dermatologist regarding Accutane for cystic acne. Given your prolonged struggle with acne and its severity, Accutane may be a viable option. However, it's crucial to consider potential side effects and weigh them against the benefits. Your dermatologist can provide personalized guidance based on your medical history and current health status.

Doctor, the acne mark is on my face .Can someone suggest a mask that will work for this? because now I am married? I have also done pRP with micron needing twice and when will I get the result? Because I can't go to the doctor anymore
Female | 22
It's great that you've taken steps like PRP with microneedling to treat your acne marks. Results usually start to show within 3 to 6 months, but it can vary from person to person. For the best advice on face masks or other treatments, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. They can guide you with the right solutions tailored to your skin type.

On today morning I saw my 2 sides of forehead are black and skin are thin.when I use water it's itching
Male | 25
You might have a skin problem. The darkness on your forehead might stem from too much pigment in the skin while the thinness could result from inflammation or irritation. Feeling itchy when water touches it could mean that it is sensitive or dry. Use a mild lotion and avoid strong products. In case this does not help, see a dermatologist who will examine you further and offer treatment if necessary.

Hi ! My Name is Hasham and when I was 3 year old my body color change the brown spots suddenly appear on my full body please doctor help me please give me any solution so I get rid of that spots
Male | 24
You may be talking about a condition called vitiligo. Whenever your skin is damaged, the cells that are responsible for giving it its color get destroyed and this results in white or brownish spots on the skin. This could be a result of many factors including genetics or autoimmune diseases. Even though there is no known cure for vitiligo yet, there are treatments such as lotions and light therapy that can help to manage these patches and make them less noticeable. Make sure that you see a dermatologist so that you can learn more about the available options.

Male | 27
Hair loss can occur due to several reasons like stress, bad diet, or genetic factors. The signs of it are thinning hair or bald patches. To help your hair grow back, try eating a balanced diet rich in vitamins and minerals, reduce stress, and use gentle hair care products. It can be a slow process, but hair may recover with careful treatment and perseverance!

The red and circular patches that have spread all over your body might be ringworm. This is a fungal infection that requires specific antifungal drugs like Terbinafine or Clotrimazole in many cases. The affected areas should be kept tidy and dry; loose clothes may also be worn.

Hi I am a 16 year old male. I have had these 2 bumps on my foreskin I’m just wondering if it is penile cancer. They are whiteish. It doesn’t cause pain or bleeding or anything until a few days ago when I tried to one of them.
Male | 16
Those bumps on your foreskin might be Fordyce spots, not cancer. Fordyce spots are small, whitish-yellow bumps that sometimes show up on genitals. They're harmless, common, and usually painless. You shouldn't pick or pop them. If you're worried, talk to a dermatologist to get checked out. But chances are, it's nothing serious.

Sir there is a pimple like thing in the middle of my chest. When I press it something comes out. What is it? It has been there for a long time.
Male | 24
You may have a sebaceous cyst, this occurs when the hair follicle is clogged and oil collects under the skin. It is usually not serious, but it can become infected if left untreated. If it bothers you, it would be best to have a dermatologist remove it safely. To prevent infection, do not try to squeeze it out at home.

Hi,my self Bhargav, Recently I observed small holes under the pennies, when I press that holes, white and black substance coming outside, initially i thought like these are formed by hair grow.
Male | 29
You may have folliculitis, which is a common skin condition. This occurs when the hair follicles become infected with bacteria. The holes you can see are where the infection is coming out; this may contain pus hence the white and black things you mentioned. Clean the affected area regularly and use warm compresses too. However, if it’s too uncomfortable for you then visit a dermatologist.

Mere penis me infection ho gya hai aur 3saal se chhuti nahi raha hai mai kya karu
Male | 21
Get rid of the infection in your penis as quickly as possible because it is untreated. Infections are responsible for causing redness, swelling, itching, pain, or discharge. Leaving it untreated for 3 years is risky and can lead to more serious problems. Make sure that you are cleansing the area with water and mild soap on a daily basis. In addition to this, keeping the area dry and avoiding tight clothing will also be beneficial. If the infection does not improve, then you must see a dermatologist for proper treatment.

It is crucial if you have a rash on your penis to consult a dermatologist or a doctor who specializes in the urinary tract as soon as possible. It might turn out to be an ingrown hair but you might be prone to a sexually transmitted disease.

Male | Guru Lal Sharma
You have ringworm on your private area and thigh. The infection manifests with red, itchy patches on the skin. The causative agent is a fungus that can be easily disseminated. Applying creams like Clobeta GM or fourderm may not be adequate. You need to see the dermatologist if you want to receive the proper treatment which includes antifungal creams or pills.

How long does contact dermatitis last
The contact dermatitis can last a long time. It depends upon the nature, frequency and duration of the exposure to the allergens. If the exposure to the allergens continues it might take very long time. If the exposure to the allergens is stopped then it will be recovered quickly.
