Why do I have a light black line on nail?

I am 14 year male from India I have a light black line on nail

1 Answer

Answered on 29th May '24

There are a few reasons why you might have that strange dark line on your nail. If you hurt your nail at all, even just a little bit, it could cause this. On the other hand, not having enough vitamins might also be the cause. Don’t worry if you feel fine and have no other symptoms besides the line, it’s not worth it. In case you do start feeling sick or notice anything else strange happening with your body, visit a dermatologist.

Can I take pistonor 2 while taking centrizine

Female | 23

Cetirizine­ helps with allergies. Pistonor 2 also he­lps with allergies. Taking both medications toge­ther can make you slee­py and dizzy. It's better to take one­ medication at a time for allergie­s. If allergies are difficult, ask your doctor for other solutions. But don't mix Cetirizine and Pistonor 2.

Can i get hpv from sharing clothes , towels or my personal items or objects from someone who has genital warts ?

Male | 32

Genital warts are caused by a virus known as HPV. It is impossible to be infected with HPV through the sharing of clothes, towels, or objects of personal hygiene. The most common way for HPV to spread is through skin-to-skin contact, usually during sexual activity. The general symptoms of genital warts are the presence of small, flesh-colored bumps in the genital area. In case you happen to be concerned about HPV then the best thing to do is to talk to a healthcare provider about preventing and treating it.

Hi doctor my is a diabetic patient she has developed a would in her leg we treated with some tablets but still it's not healed properly please suggest

Female | 59

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.

I had a small cut on my hand that came into contact with blood on clothe. I didn't see any blood on my cut afterward or any wetness. Could I be infected with HIV?

Female | 33

HIV does not spre­ad easily from dried blood. The virus die­s quickly outside the body. A small cut touching dried blood is ve­ry unlikely to cause infection. Unbroke­n skin protects against HIV entering the­ body. Being cautious with blood is wise. Howeve­r, in this case, the chance of ge­tting HIV is extremely low. It's still good to watch for any unusual symptoms. But you probably have­ nothing to worry about!

My skin is Dark what should i do to get my skin Brighton

Male | Sai

Skin darkening is a typical phenomenon; it could be as a result of different causes like solar exposure or genetic condition. Dark skin tends to become discolored. To lighten your skin, try staying away from the sun, using mild skin care products, and eating healthy foods are the right methods. In addition to this, drinking plenty of water and sufficient sleep also help make your skin seem fairer.
