Answered on 8th Mar '25
Dry skin can lead to flakiness, tightness, and irritation, often caused by factors like environmental conditions, dehydration, or certain skin conditions. To improve your skin's appearance, ensure adequate hydration by drinking plenty of water and using a rich moisturizer. Incorporating products with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, glycerin, or ceramides can be very beneficial. Additionally, gentle exfoliation once in a while can help remove dead skin cells. If you're finding it difficult to achieve a healthy look or if symptoms persist, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for tailored advice and treatments.

I have recently done Human Simplex virus(HSV) 1+2 igM serum test it come back <0.500 and another Human Simplex Virus (HSV) 1+2 igG serum test it come back 0.87 , sir could you please explain this , am I Infected or not
Male | 25
The IgM test result which is less than 0.500 means there are no recent infections. However, the IgG test result of 0.87 indicates a past infection. You might commonly have symptoms such as blisters, pain, and itching. Nevertheless, treatments are available to cope with the symptoms and outbreaks, so, don't hesitate to contact a dermatologist for more help.

i suffer from mouth ulcers at the moment and it happens frequently after every 13 to 15 days ,why is that ?and what to do about it, what are the remedies for it, also at times i get more than 1+ ulcers at the same time this time i had three where one healed and two are yet to,but one is also most which is in the cheeks skin but the one i have at the moment i.e on the tongue is very deep and healing very slow
Male | 20
Stress is a common cause of these types of sores, but they can also be brought on by accidentally biting your mouth or eating certain foods. To keep them from forming, it is important to try and reduce stress as much as possible while staying away from anything spicy or acidic that may irritate the area more. Good oral hygiene will help prevent future outbreaks. Over-the-counter gels are available at most stores, which will numb the pain temporarily and speed up healing times. If none of this works or if they won’t seem to go away then please see a dermatologist/dentist for further assistance.

Hie I have this painful bump on my armpit, there's like a huge lump on the inside, which medics can I use to get rid of it
Female | 23
It appears that you may be dealing with an infected bump in the underarm that is often caused due to bacteria penetrating a hair follicle or sweat gland. It is usually painful and swollen. One of the main methods to treat an underarm boil is to try warm compresses, which may help the drainage of the boil and the healing. Do not squeeze it! It is better to leave it clean and dry instead. If the bump does not come into healing or gets even bigger, Consult a dermatologist.

It started with an itch and I constantly scratched it and it got red inflamed and possible signs of infection!
Female | 22
You might be struggling with a skin problem called dermatitis. What is common is to scratch the itch often. It will make the skin red and inflamed. In the case of an infection, the signs can be warmth and pus. Scratching should be stopped, and the area kept clean. A gentle moisturizer can work. If it doesn't get better, visit a dermatologist.

Female | 46
Skin cancer is caused when skin cells grow in an abnormal way. The symptoms can include moles that are changing, new growths, or sores that don’t heal. The main reason is the sun. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. It's important to protect your skin from the sun and see a dermatologist for regular checkups.

My uncle is suffering from tongue Cancer and by mistake I gave him the liquid which we apply on outer inquiry then what can I do what is its side effects
Male | 58
When it comes to ingesting a liquid not meant for internal use, it may be harmful. There are some side effects such as stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, or dizziness. These symptoms are a result of the tongue quickly absorbing the substances. Please immediately visit a doctor if you notice any of these symptoms. It's crucial to let the doctors know about the mistake, and they will give you the right treatment.

I have been getting flare ups on my ankles that are itchy and hot, they come and go every few weeks and I’m a little concerned
Female | 18
You may have eczema, a condition that can lead to itchy, inflamed patches of skin that usually show up on the back of your knees. This happens when your skin gets too dry and irritated. To relieve your symptoms, try using a mild moisturizer and staying away from strong soaps or detergents. If this doesn’t help, talk to a dermatologist who can give you more advice.

Last year i was so fair but now my face and whole body become dull and darkening..i was in depression because of all this issues..last month i went for checkup that i have thyroid .so please tell me this skin issue caused by thyroid or other reasons..if i cosume thyroid medicine can i become like before.please sugesst me mam/sir.i m very worried of my drakening skin day by day.
Female | 29
Your thyroid and skin issues are connected. Thyroid imbalances often cause dry, dull skin tone changes. Thyroid medication balances hormone levels, potentially improving skin quality gradually. Ensure you take your prescribed doses regularly and follow up with a dermatologist routinely. This helps rejuvenate your inner well-being, and outer appearance alike.

Hello I have been having a skin infection of something that looks like ringworm. It starts like a pimple and later widens into different sizes. It started appearing on my thighs and is now appearing on every other part of my body except my face and scalp. There are moments when my skin is void of any but on other periods it appears almost every where with a lot on my fingers and palms. It's been on and off for more than 10 years now. I've consulted several dematologist with each having a different diagnosis and prescribing different creams to be applied on the affected spots but those have not helped me in any way. I truly do not know what else to do. Please help.
Female | 27
Ringworms often spread and return if not treated well. Fungal infections love warm, damp body areas. Antifungal creams don't always work for severe and stubborn infections. I suggest seeing an experienced dermatologist. They can evaluate your unique condition much better and recommend medications or other treatments suitable for this.

Male | 68
You could be suffering from a disorder known as eczema. Eczema is a skin condition that can give you itchy rashes on your arms. It can be set off by different things such as allergies, irritants, or stress. As for your symptoms, you can use a cream prescribed by a doctor, keep your skin hydrated, and avoid scratching to make it better. If your situation worsens, see a dermatologist for more options.

I have pimples and acne on my face I am 19 years old female I apply a gel on affected areas but it does not work
Female | 19 years
It’s usual to have pimples at your age, mainly due to hormonal interactions, stress, or skin type. If the gel you’re using isn’t effective, you might want to incorporate a gentle cleanser and a non-comedogenic moisturizer into your daily routine. Try not to squeeze your skin, as it can only make the situation worse. A balanced diet and enough fluid also bring about improvements. Still, locating the check of skin under coatings could necessarily need personalized therapy, so I would advise you to contact a dermatologist if it doesn’t get better.

Fungal infection back body and hand
Male | 22
Fungal infections on the back or hands often cause redness, itching, and flaking skin. These can occur due to moisture, warmth, or skin-to-skin contact. It's crucial to keep the affected area dry and clean. Over-the-counter antifungal creams can be effective, but persistent symptoms may require a prescription. Avoid tight clothing and share personal items to reduce spread. If your condition doesn’t improve within a few weeks or worsens, please consult a dermatologist. They can provide a diagnosis and tailored treatment to ensure a full recovery.

I have itchy skin mostly in legs and hands and private parts
Male | 21
The itching of these spots can be brought about by many things, like dry skin, skin diseases like eczema or a fungal infection. To soothe the itching, use moisturizers, take lukewarm baths, and put on loose, breathable clothes. If the itching is still there or getting worse, you may want to go to a dermatologist for more testing.

I am a 37 year old female and have cellulitis. I’ve been on antibiotics for a little over 36 hours but the pain is getting worse. The rash doesn’t seem to be spreading but it’s getting harder and darker
Female | 36
Cellulitis is a skin infection that may exhibit symptoms such as redness, swellings, and pains. Sometimes, it might even make you look more like a bruiser before getting better. The treatment needs a bit of mystery, so it would be wise to give it a little time before you see the full effects. You should not forget to take them at the prescribed time and also be sure to drink enough water. If the pain becomes unbearable or you notice any other alarming symptoms, you should contact a dermatologist.

This could be a rash, eczema, or an infection. Be careful of any redness, itching, or changes in your baby's skin. To keep your baby safe, wash their skin with mild soap and water. If you see any new symptoms, it's better to talk to a dermatologist to get the correct treatment.

Hello! I am 29-year-old female, got stung by a jellyfish on 6th September in my right leg, pain was quite severe, we went to the emergency, I got some painkillers, now I use local and oral antihistamines, but the scars are still there and sometimes there is swelling and itching. No pain anymore. What else should I do? Is local methylprednisolone a good idea? Can I go to the swimming pool and/or run?
Female | 29
Jellyfish stings are common and can leave scars, swelling, and itching even after the pain subsides. Applying antihistamine creams can help with itching and oral antihistamines are recommended for swelling. If symptoms persist, a local methylprednisolone injection may be considered. It's best to avoid swimming and running until the scars heal to prevent further irritation.
