Is the white spot on my tongue concerning?
I am 16 years old and a female, I have noticed that there has been a white spot/bump on my tongue for the past four or five days. At first the bump hurt and I would bite it or play with it with my teeth and it would not stop hurting. Then On sunday night I drank a hot tea and it burnt my tongue. Now it feels like my tongue feels better but that spot feels like it is still irritated or burnt. The spot has not gotten bigger it has been the same size and my lymph nodes are not swollen. I haven’t experienced any fever/ flu like symptoms or unusual discharge.

You might have a canker sore, a harmless and common mouth ulcer. Canker sores can be painful and can come after biting your tongue or eating hot foods. They generally disappear in a week or two by themselves. You can use over-the-counter numbing gels or try rinsing your mouth with salt water to ease the discomfort. Stay away from spicy or acidic foods that can irritate the sore. If it doesn't get any better and if you have more issues, visit a dermatologist.

I think I may have the STD/STI virus called Herpes. There are tiny little pink bumps that have been on my penis for a while now.
Male | 23
It is really important to keep monitoring and watching any changes occurring in your body. These small pink pimples that you see might be due to Herpes. Having sores, blisters, and itching are the common outcomes when you get an infection. A virus caused by herpes simplex is spread by the transmission of proteins from the infected source to the recipient's body. But the only certain way till the moment it is still unconfirmed is to get tested by a professional health worker.

Popped pimple scars..i want to remove these ...
Male | 16
Popped pimples can leave scars. These scars can make you feel unhappy. Pimple scars show up when popped or picked. To help with these scars, try using creams or oils with ingredients that fade scars. However, remember it might take time for scars to disappear completely.

Hy my name is Simon ,,please am haveing itches on my penis and some place shine white please what's to know the solution thanks
Male | 33
The condition you have is called thrush. Thrush manifests through an itching, the formation of white shiny patches on the penis. It is generally produced by a fungus named Candida. A suggestion is to use a specific ointment that you can buy from the pharmacy. Keep the area dry and clean. If the symptoms are not getting better, visit a dermatologist.

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.

Hi I got a hot water burn in my penis last night and part of the skin is like peeling and red what should I do?
Male | 18
You have a burn on your penis from hot water, and now the skin is peeling and red. Burns can be painful so it’s important to take care of them. Gently clean the area with cool water and a mild soap. You could also use aloe vera gel or some kind of soothing cream to help it heal. Don’t wear tight clothes that will irritate it more either. If it still hurts or stays red after all this, talk to a dermatologist.

Male | 20
You might have a skin condition called eczema, which can cause small watery bumps, itching, and some redness. Standard treatments don't always work for everyone. To relieve symptoms, use a mild moisturizer regularly, avoid strong soaps, and wear loose, natural-fiber clothing. If the problem continues, consider consulting a dermatologist for further advice and treatment.

For brighter skin or improved complexion, you can try supplements with Vitamin C and Vitamin E. If you're dealing with dullness, these vitamins can help give your skin a healthy glow. Consider reliable brands like Nature's Bounty or NOW Foods. Be sure to read the label carefully and consult your pharmacist or doctor before starting any new supplement.

This is common and recurrent and more prominent in winters than in summers. The mainstay treatment for atopic dermatitis are moisturizers or topical steroids.

Hello doctor I am sangeetha .I have hairfall .I have losing 70 hairs per day it is normal or not?
Female | 27
Losing some hair daily isn't unusual. Around 50-100 strands lost is normal. However, excess hair fall can occur due to various reasons. Stress, poor diet, hormone changes, and genetic factors contribute to increased shedding. If hair loss seems excessive or causes concern, consider consulting a dermatologist for guidance.

i have a pimple thats bothering me for 2 years (it wont go away)
Male | 19
You seem to have a long-lasting pimple, known as a cyst. These pimples linger, painful, and deep within the skin. To aid healing, gently cleanse the area. Don't squeeze or pick at it. After two years, the cyst persists. Seeking advice from a dermatologist is recommended if discomfort continues.

I have an infection on my penis. Please guide me for treatment
Male | 39
It sounds like a penis infection, which can be caused by either bacteria, fungi, or a virus. Symptoms like redness, pain, itching, swelling, or discharge may occur. To treat, the patient should keep the part clean and dry, avoid sexual contact, until it heals, and use a topical antifungal or antibiotic cream that can be purchased over-the-counter. If it doesn't improve, go to a dermatologist.

Having pimple and painful bumps need a cream or gel.
Male | 22
Your skin issues seem to indicate pimples and sore bumps. These happen when pores get blocked, trapping bacteria inside. An over-the-counter cream or gel with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid may help. These ingredients reduce inflammation by killing bacteria on your skin's surface. Wash your face regularly to prevent clogging. Don't squeeze pimples, though - that can cause scarring. With some care, those bumps will clear up.

Eczema is a skin condition that can cause itching, redness, and sometimes swelling or cracked skin. It happens when your skin is sensitive to things like soaps, lotions, or even stress. To reduce itching and redness, use gentle, fragrance-free products and keep your skin moisturized. If the symptoms persist, it's important to see a dermatologist for further treatment.

Hello I consume ketanzole lotion by mistake 1 teaspoon what should I do
Male | 47
If this did happen, don’t panic too much, as it can occur. Ketoconazole contains an ingredient that can be harmful when ingested. Symptoms such as stomach ache, nausea, or vomiting are likely to occur. If you notice any of these signs, seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, try not to get too worked up about it. Instead, drink plenty of water to help reduce the concentration of the drug in your system.

Swelling and burning sensation behind pennis head area also small wounds there
Male | 36
It seems to me that you might have a condition known as balanitis. This is a term used when there is some swelling, burning and small sores on the skin behind the head of the penis (foreskin). Tight clothing or poor hygiene can lead to this. Try washing gently with warm water and mild soap. Avoid wearing tight clothes and keep the area dry. If it does not improve then see a urologist who will probably prescribe medicine for it.

I’m an 18 year old female, and last week on Friday/Saturday I started coming up in raised itchy bumps, it looks like a rash, but we presumed it was psorisis due to me having occasional ecsma so I’ve been using aquous cream etc but unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be going is is spreading, so we think it may be a rash/allergic reaction now
Female | 18
You have a rash that is itchy and spreading to me. An allergic reaction or skin irritation might be the reason behind this. It's possible that what you touched earlier was triggering it. You should use anti-itch cream and stop scratching. Shouldn't it get better, a dermatologist will be better to talk to as they provide such services.

Infection after shaving i think as ingrown hairs turned into boils that have puss in them how can I treat this at home
Female | 17
If ingrown hair has turned into painful boils with pus, try cleaning the area gently with warm water and soap. Apply warm compresses and avoid picking at the boils. Using over the counter antibiotics and wearing loose clothing can help. Maintain good hygiene and consider pain relief if needed. However, if the situation doesn't improve, worsens, or spreads, consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.
