I got the cut from the barber trimmer is it the chance of getting hiv virus from that trimmer ?

Male | 21

You are very unlikely to get HIV from a barber trimmer. HIV is not spread by inanimate objects like trimmers but through fluids that carry the virus, such as blood. Look for symptoms such as fever or maybe pimples but always keep in mind the probability of this happening is extremely low.

Mery face pe freckless he bht zyada mghy iska koi elaj bta dy pls

Female | 28

Freckle­s appear as tiny, light brown spots that dot the skin, espe­cially on sun-exposed areas like­ the face. They're­ harmless markings. But for some, freckle­s become an aesthe­tic concern. To fade freckle­s, wear sunscreen and a hat whe­n outdoors. Opt for skin care products enriched with vitamin C or re­tinol. If self-conscious about freckles, conce­al them with makeup. Reme­mber, freckles are­ natural and require no medical inte­rvention.

My skin is very dull and i am having open pores near to the nose are on cheeks, skin texture is uneven.what can be possible reason for that

Female | 27

Dull, oily skin with large pores on the nose and cheeks is a common issue. This can result from excess oil production, genetics, or inadequate skin care. These factors often lead to rough patches and an uneven skin tone. To improve your skin, try using gentle cleansers, exfoliating regularly, and applying a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer. Additionally, staying hydrated is crucial. Open pores can get clogged with dirt and excess oil, but regular exfoliation can help keep them clear. Proper moisturizing prevents dryness without causing excess shine. With consistent care, smooth and evenly-toned skin is achievable.

I used to have pimples on my face 2 to 3 years ago but after using some medicine the pimples reduced but pigmentation acne has appeared on my face, how should I cure it.

Female | 21

This condition occurs when your skin produces excess pigment, resulting in dark spots. It often appears after a pimple has healed. To treat it, you can use products containing ingredients like vitamin C or retinol, which can help fade the dark spots over time. Remember to always apply sunscreen to protect your skin from further damage.

Ingrown nail. Looking for dermatologist

Male | 23

In case of an ingrown nail, it is recommended to visit a dermatologist. They can evaluate the severity of the other ingrown nail, provide its proper care and offer treatment alternatives. In mild cases, soaking the affected area in warm water and lifting gently under the ingrown edge may work. On the contrary, in case of more severe ingrown nail or recurrent one surgical intervention is indicated. Do not try to deal with it yourself to avoid complications or infections. The healthcare professional should be consulted for proper treatment specific to your case.

My toe nails are changing to a yellow color..also I have skin peeling between my toes and it hurts very much.. can you prescribe me anything for it..I'm guessing it's athletes feet and toe nails fungus

Female | 40

Your symptoms sound like athlete’s foot and toenail fungus. An athlete’s foot can cause your nails to turn yellow, make the skin on your feet peel off, and make your toes hurt. The fungus that leads to athlete’s foot loves warm, damp areas – like sweaty feet. You can use over-the-counter antifungal creams on your skin and nails to treat it. Also, try to keep your feet clean and dry so they are less appealing to the fungus.
