It looks like you have a skin problem called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This happens when your skin makes too much color after a cut or bruise. This causes dark spots. To make the dark spots go away, you can use a cream with ingredients like vitamin C, kojic acid, or licorice extract. It may take some time for the spots to fade away. And make sure to stay out of the sun to stop the spots from getting darker. If the problem persists, visit a dermatologist.

I am 18-year old female and i have been experiencing throat pain, there’s small oranges bumps on the back of my throat, it hurts to sallow and my throat just looks red and swollen is also small patches on my tonsils.
Female | 18
You could have tonsillitis, a condition in which your tonsils become infected. It may be uneasy for you if your throat is red, swollen, and has small orange bumps and patches. Tonsillitis can be caused by viruses or bacteria. In more detail, the patient should follow the three instructions: drinking a lot of non-alcoholic fluids, sleeping more, and using over-the-counter analgesic medication that your healthcare provider recommended. The practice of gargling warm salty water will definitely sooth the pain as well. By that time the infection has not subsided; it can mean that you should see a physician for more care.

doctor i am having itchy and pain near my upper thighs but not on my vagina please help its so itchy and pain like there are some pimples and like some rash
Female | 20
You might be suffering from a type of skin infection known as folliculitis. This occurs when hair follicles accumulate bacteria. The symptoms you mentioned are typical of this problem: itchy, painful, pimples, and red, bumpy rashes. Excessive heat, humidity, friction of clothes, or shaving irritation can cause it. Keeping the area clean and dry is a good way to recover and loose clothes might help to relieve the pain. Another way to reduce the discomfort is by applying a warm compress on the affected area. A dermatologist should be consulted if there is no improvement.

Male | 33
The condition you have is called thrush. Thrush manifests through an itching, the formation of white shiny patches on the penis. It is generally produced by a fungus named Candida. A suggestion is to use a specific ointment that you can buy from the pharmacy. Keep the area dry and clean. If the symptoms are not getting better, visit a dermatologist.

I have to use cleanser water and which one is better for me I don’t know I’m sensitive skin
Female | 17
It is best to consult a dermatologist who can recommend a suitable cleanser for your skin type. A gentle, fragrance-free cleanser that is designed for sensitive skin, such as Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, could be a good option. However, it is always best to seek professional advice to ensure the best care for your skin. They may ask other health conditions like regarding your gut health, other issues etc and accordingly prescribe.

Male | 15
Hyperhidrosis is a condition when you perspire a lot more than normal. It can occur on your hands, feet, under your armpits, or even all over your body. It could be the result of overactive sweat glands or triggered by anxiety, heat, or spicy food. Besides that, there are several things you can do to manage it such as antiperspirants, medications, Botox injections, or in severe cases, surgery.

A small swelling near rectum which seems to be growing a bit. Recently it feels itchy too while walking.
Male | 44
You might be dealing with a hemorrhoid. These are small lumps that form near your rectum and can sometimes get bigger with time. They may also itch or hurt especially when you walk around a lot. Hemorrhoids occur as a result of straining during bowel movements or sitting on the toilet for too long. Eating more fiber, drinking plenty of water, and using creams for relief could help. See a dermatologist if none of this works.

I have purple spots on my arm but i feel any pain
Male | 20
Red-purple dots may appear on your arm. They don't hurt. These come from tiny blood vessels bursting close to the skin's surface. This condition is called purpura. Purpura can happen due to small injuries or randomly. Most cases go away without treatment. However, if more spots show up, or other symptoms occur, or if purpura persists, you should see a dermatologist. This can rule out underlying health issues causing these spots.

Iam a 28 year old men and I have been having problems with red rashes on my penish for head and red rash on my penis foreskin and sometimes it itches..it has been comming n going for three months and burning sensation sometimes while peeing.
Male | 28
Balanitis, or inflammation of the penis, is a common disease that may be the cause of your symptoms. The red rashes, itching, and burning sensation while peeing are common symptoms of balanitis. This can be the result of a poor hygiene regimen, fungal infections, or irritation from chemicals or materials. In this regard, one should keep the area clean and dry, avoid irritants, and use antifungal creams as directed by a dermatologist.

I applied hair removal spray on my chest and legs. Now I am feeling itchy and red rashes have appeared on my legs.
Male | 24
Itchy and red rashes are some of the common signs of sensitivity when your skin's non-acceptance is projected. This might be due to the presence of certain chemicals in the spray to which your skin is sensitive. Perhaps, you should try a gentle body lotion to reduce the itching and rashes.

I have tiny dots on my testicles
Male | 17
Noticing small spots or bumps on your scrotum can be concerning, but there’s no need to panic. These might be harmless. They could be little blood vessels called angiokeratomas lying close to the skin's surface. Sometimes there’s no need to do anything about these spots. You should see a dermatologist if they are itchy, painful, or annoying.

What we do our face have pimples
Female | 41
When you see pimples on your face, don't worry, it's common and usually nothing serious. This occurs if your skin pores are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Indications may involve red lumps and whiteheads or blackheads. To avoid these pimples wash the face regularly with a mild soap, not always touching it, and use oil-free products for your skin. You can also visit a dermatologist if necessary.

I used undiluted peppemint oil and now it seems like i have a chemical burn, what can i use on it to let it heal faster.
Female | 25
It could be that your peppermint essential oil is too concentrated and has started to irritate your skin. Some of the symptoms of the condition include redness, burning, or discomfort on the skin. For the healing process, wash the affected part gently with cool water and follow with a soothing fragrance-free moisturizer such as aloe vera or a hydrocortisone cream. Try to keep away from exposure to irritants. If the irritation worsens or does not improve within a few days, I suggest consult a dermatologist.

I have skin problem,I had pimples on face and chest for long time
Female | 22
Getting pimples on your face and chest is quite annoying. Those red bumps often occur when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. This happens if your body produces excessive oil. Wash your skin gently using a mild soap to keep it clean. You could try using over-the-counter acne products with benzoyl peroxide to help clear up the pimples. If the issue persists, visit a dermatologist.

I am 22 year old woman l was using skin lite cream for past few months and now my face got burned and my face has two colours how to get rid of this problem
Female | 22
Skin irritation and pigmentation changes could be causing the two different colors. To solve this, stop using the cream right away and use a mild moisturizer instead. Also, always apply sunscreen before going out into the sun each morning or afternoon. If it doesn’t help, see a dermatologist for more advice.

This could come as a result of high blood sugar, poor blood circulation, or infection. Redness, warmth, swelling, and pus are the signs of infection. In some cases, scars must be treated with special dressings or antibiotics. Help her to control her blood sugar levels and make sure she gets her wound care from her doctor.

You may have a mouth ulcer disease. These are small sores that can cause difficulties with eating and talking. They may be due to stress, injury from a sharp tooth, or specific foods. To speed up your recovery, avoid spicy or acidic foods and use a mouth rinse made of salt water. If they don't get better after one week or two, it's a good idea to go to a dentist or doctor for more advice.

Hello! I'd like to consult on a medication called Doxycycline I took 2 doses wrongly by accident (2 pills 2 times a day instead of 1 pill 2 times a day) Should I wait 24 hours and take the next dose in the morning? or should I take my next dose now? also, could I check the effectiveness of doxycycline? (I have taken doxycycline before and I'm concerned it might not be effective) Thank you!
Male | 24
It's important to use medicines the right way if you want them to work well. Too much doxycycline might give you a stomach ache, make you feel sick, or throw up. If you have taken 2 doses at once, just skip that particular time and take your next dose when it is due. Even after this drug may still be effective but not in the correct manner as before; so always consult with your doctor if doubtful about its efficacy.
