I am a 30-year-old female and have acne scars on my face. I would like to know the possible causes and treatment options for these scars. Could a dermatologist provide me with some guidance?
Male | 30
Acne is a consequence of the body's protective work against infection. Acne can be a downer to the shape or softness of your skin. There are some types: atrophic (depressed) and hypertrophic (raised) scars being the major ones. Several treatment options are available, such as topical treatments, chemical peels, microneedling, or laser therapy, all with your skin and the concerns thereof in mind. A dermatologist can diagnose your medical condition and tell you the best method for smoother skin.

Can i get hpv from touching doors,keyboards, cups, clothes or shaking hands ? Thank you so much.
Male | 32
HPV means human papillomavirus. You can’t get it from things like cups, clothes, doors, and keyboards. This virus is often spread through skin-to-skin contact. It can cause warts or even cancer in some cases. The best way to keep yourself safe from this virus is to get the HPV vaccine.

Wound problem cream tablet
Male | 70
These can arise from infection, irritation, or inadequate healing. For mild problems, topical creams may help soothe the area, while oral tablets can assist in managing pain or inflammation. It’s crucial to keep the wound clean and protected. However, if you observe worsening symptoms or if the wound does not improve, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. They can provide a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment to ensure optimal healing.

I am having red bumps on the penis head from today morning.It is itching and are many in number.All are on the head on penis and pretty big in size.I am 16 and virgin.Also have the habit of masturbation a day.
Male | 16
The red, itchy, and sometimes big bumps can be due to several reasons such as friction, allergies, or skin irritation. As you're young and inexperienced with sex, it's unlikely for this to be a sexually transmissible disease. Pay attention to hygiene (keep the area clean and dry), stop scratching, and don’t engage in sexual activities until the area heals. If the symptoms don't improve or worsen, you should think about contacting a dermatologist for more tests and treatment options.

I have blisters all over my body, mouth, and genitals. Different sizes some filled with more pus than others.
Female | 18
You have something called ‘Herpes’ which is a condition caused by a viral infection in different sizes around the body parts, mainly the mouth, and genitals where one gets blisters filled with pus. These sores can hurt but they will disappear over time. Don’t burst them open and keep the place dry and clean. Visit a dermatologist for further treatment.

Mere face ke neeche neck ke pass hanging pimples hogaye hain. Hanging pimples ko hatane ke liye kya karoon. Please tell me medicine and treatment for removal of my hanging pimples. My age is 35 years.
पुरुष | 35
Those pimples under your chin could be a sign of acne. This can happen due to overstretched pores and excessive oil production on your skin. You can use a thorough cleanser and products containing ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to help eliminate them. It is also important not to pick or squeeze the pimples, as this can worsen them. If over-the-counter treatments don't work, it is best to see a dermatologist for further advice. Sometimes, antibiotics may also help.

I am 24 years old , my bum skin is peeling off and I bleed when bowel comes out , my vagina is red and has a hot temperature.
Female | 24
You may have a fissure. This happens if your bowels are making too much effort when you go to the toilet. It is a kind of cut near your bum. It makes excretion painful and can lead to bleeding. On the other hand, having a hot and red vagina could mean you have an infection. To cure both butt and vagina issues, try increasing your daily water intake; include high-fiber foods in your diet as well. Lastly, visit a medical dermatologist for professional treatment.

I am 18 years old When I pull my hair from my head most of the time two to three hairs come out is it normal.
Male | 18
You can lose a few strands when you gently pull your hair out and that's normal. Every hair has its pattern of growing and shedding. In case you are losing only two to three hairs at the time you don't have a reason to be concerned. Generally, more hair comes out, and spotting bald spots on the scalp, is a good suggestion to talk about your case with a dermatologist.

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.

You might be afflicted with a skin condition known as hives. Hives are red, raised bumps on the skin that can be itchy and disturbing. They are often the result of a long list of contributors, among them are allergies, stress, and infections. One way to relieve the itching and irritation is by taking antihistamines that are available over the counter and applying soothing lotions.

Several factors such as digestion, nutritional lack, pressure, or hormonal imbalances could be the cause of these particular things. One way to get better at how you feel might be to eat a fairly healthy diet that is packed with vitamins and minerals, especially B vitamins and zinc. Drinking enough water and controlling stress by doing exercises regularly or attending meditation sessions may also help. It is really important to talk to a dermatologist for personal advice and treatment choices.

Male | 18
It seems you have several health issues. All these might be connected with different things. The reason for the bad smell on the skin may be due to sweat or bacteria. Dry skin or a fungus can cause dandruff. Cavity comes from eating sugary food. Back pain could come from bad posture; stomach trouble could be caused by what you eat or stress. Also having an appendix problem may make it hurt when you use the toilet.

Hello doctor I have 2 marks on my nose earlier it was small and light but Now they are dark and big , and I really want to remove them. So kindly give me advice they look really very bad.
Female | 37
We need to see picture of the marks and we need to know the reason behind marks if it's previous chicken pox or accident or any infection. Based on location sometimes we might remove them or sometimes we might give some sufficient filling part or we have TCA peel so we need to decide based on depth location and reason behind marks. Please share the pictures. You can also visit plastic surgeon near your area.
