How can I treat a bacterial toe infection at home?
Hi mam! I had been facing a bacterial infection around the gaps of my toes. Yesterday the pus was coming out of it and now it's swollen and painful. I can't walk properly from last 2 weeks because of it. I tried a lot to cure it by soaking my legs in hot water and applying normal moisturizer cream.

It appears like a serious wound infection in your big toe. This case needs to be brought to the attention of a doctor straight away. You may need to see a dermatologist or a podiatrist to get the problem sorted as soon as possible to avoid more complications.

Hi my name is Robin. I am really interested in PRP. I would like to know about the cost for PRP for hair and what kind of medicine and topical solution do you offer with PRP SESSIONS ? Thank you
Male | 28
PRP therapies are an excellent choice when done after proper examination. What is more important than the cost is to know that the examinations actually give a clear indication for it, and without which it's impossible to tell how many sessions will actually be required.
A two and half months course of prp and laser therapies costs approximately 20 thousand rupees.
Single session can cost up to 3500 Rs.
You may connect with any dermatologist for hair transplant in surat.

In the past 5 months I have been suffering from fever and cold along with a lot of weakness and My hair was very thick before and now it has fallen out a lot.
Female | 18
You're experiencing a combination of symptoms that could be related to an underlying health issue. Persistent fever, cold, weakness, and significant hair loss over several months can sometimes point to problems like nutritional deficiencies, thyroid issues, or even an infection. It's important to consult a general physician or an endocrinologist who can evaluate your symptoms properly and suggest the right treatment.

I had chicken pox 2 years back and the mark of chicken pox was left on my hand, 2 days back I had dipped cotton inside dettol and wrapped that on the mark. When I opened it yesterday I had 2 bubbles beside those marks on my skin
Male | 16
You may have gotten sores next to the chickenpox scars on your hand. These sores might be caused by irritation or infection. Do not scratch or pop these sores because doing so can make them more infected. Clean and dry the area. Using a soothing lotion or getting checked out by a dermatologist would also help to prevent complications.

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.

Male | 23
Maybe it has to do with heat, scratching, an allergic reaction, or an ailment. Staying sterilized and using a lotion will make the dryness go away. But, you may have noticed these marks change or spread so you must consult with a dermatologist. A doctor will accurately evaluate the situation and advise suitable treatments.

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.

Hair fall Delivery ke bad bahut ho rha hai hair fall
Female | 28
Women usually have hair loss after childbirth. It is the result of hormonal changes in our bodies. Do not worry; it is a normal and passing situation. In addition to hair loss, you may also experience fatigue and stress. It is better to eat good food, get enough sleep and manage your stress. Mild hair care and avoiding chemicals also work out the problem.

I took two pills of Isotroin 20 two days ago. Could that cause a delay in my period? My period is actually 7 days late. What should I do?
Female | 27
The Isotroin 20 medicine shouldn't be a reason for a woman to have a late period. Nevertheless, anxiety, alterations in your routine, or some other medications could be responsible. Sometimes, missing a period is okay and it's not a reason for worry. If you have been late for your period for a long time, it is a good idea to take a pregnancy test. If you see other strange symptoms or your period is late for a long time, think about going to your gynecologist for a checkup.

I have been have an itching sensation whenever i bath on my penis and sometimes when i take a pee, what can this be, recently there were red spots , small ones on the penis head but after a day they just disappeared , what can this be and any medication for it
Male | 24
You’ve got the symptoms of a disease called balanitis. This may be associated with symptoms such as nausea, red spots, and pain when urinating. Balanitis can often be due to a lack of proper hygiene, an allergy to soaps or laundry detergents, or a yeast or bacterial infection. As one of the options to get rid of the itching and irritation, the area should be softly washed with warm water and mild soap. Steer clear of the harsh chemicals and tight clothing. The symptoms are still there, see a dermatologist for more tests and treatment.

I am 18 years old l have used many medicines for acne but haven't changed what should I do?
Female | 18
Acne occurs when the pores get clogged with oil and bacteria. Having a bunch of medications and no benefits can be a terrible thing. It is crucial to keep in mind that everyone's skin is unique. Often an easy skincare program using mild products is the right route. Eliminate harsh chemicals and see a dermatologist to provide you with individualized recommendations.

I have acne prone skin which food is good for me and which food cam worse my acne suggest me some foods so I can cure my acne without Applying pharmacy products
Female | 20
Fruits, vegetables, and grains are very good for your skin. These products contain vitamins and antioxidants that can benefit your skin. Conversely, belief in a protective factor suggests that hormones like androgens cause acne, and poor lifestyle habits by consuming greasy or sweet fatty foods might make acne worse. Drink more water. It is the best way to keep acne away since it purifies your skin. A balanced diet is the most effective means of controlling acne.

Male | 17
Vitiligo is a skin condition in which white patches appear on your skin due to the loss of pigment cells. You are applying Melbild lotion and Tacroz Forte, which can contribute to the pigmentation process on your skin. If you are not seeing any improvements after 6 months, you should probably consider discussing other treatment options with your dermatologist. Unfortunately, there is no remedy for white hair, but you can try using hair dyes to cover them up.

What is the best treatment for vitiligo? Benifit between Pototherapy or oral medication for vitiligo treatment
Female | 27
Vitiligo makes your skin lose color in patches. Cells that produce pigment stop functioning, leading to white spots. Treatment choices are phototherapy and medicines. Phototherapy uses light to restore pigmentation. Oral medications help regain skin color. A dermatologist can recommend treatment after assessing your condition. Phototherapy and medication are effective options. Discuss with your doctor to choose the right approach.

Male | 22
Hair loss can be caused by stress, scalp fungus, and dandruff, which create an unhealthy environment for hair growth. To improve scalp health and reduce hair loss, try natural remedies. Use mild shampoos for dandruff, manage stress with relaxation techniques, and consult a dermatologist for scalp fungus. With the right treatment, you may notice your hair starting to regrow.

I am arpita im 17 years old my skin suffering from dullness nd even skin tone nd not even glow nd hydration
Female | 17
It seems like your skin is not glowing and lacks moisture. These issues may be due to other reasons such as lack of proper hydration, non-use of sunscreen, or dry location. One of the best things to do in this respect is to ensure that your skin takes in enough water, use a good moisturizer that is not too harsh, and eat a healthy diet by including fruits and vegetables. Use sunblock when outdoors to keep your skin protected from the sun. These actions may improve your skin and consequently, you may have radiant skin.

You may have a yeast infection. It can be responsible for such problems as itching, redness, and sometimes a thick discharge. Antibiotics, tight clothing, or a weakened immune system can be blamed for yeast infections. You can buy antifungal creams over-the-counter can ease the itching and help you get rid of the infection. You should be wearing only cotton underwear and avoiding those products with scents to ensure you are not further irritating the area.

Male | 26
You have a cut on your face, and it may be making you uncomfortable. Cuts can happen due to accidents or contact with something sharp. However, there is no need to worry. To help it heal properly, keep the wound clean. Apply a thin layer of antibacterial ointment, and cover it with a bandage if necessary. If the cut is deep, appears red, or is oozing, see a dermatologist immediately.

I have a bad case of chaffing and heat rash on my personal areas..I got cream that works at home in the AC.. but when I'm at work in the heat it flares back up... What can I do??
Male | 43
You are likely experiencing a heat rash and chafing in your private areas. This usually happens because perspiration becomes trapped against the skin thereby irritating. Signs may include redness, itching, and sometimes little bumps. To assist with this, tighten any loose-fitting clothes, stay cool, and ensure it’s dry down there. Apply some soothing ointment and be sure to take breaks if possible.
