The dark spots could be from more melanin, which happens when the sun hits your skin. The rough feel might be dry skin. To help, try using a soft cream with SPF to keep your skin from the sun and wet. Also, remember to drink lots of water. You can also visit a dermatologist if the problem doesn't go away.

having skin underarms red and pores
Male | 22
The reason for the problem might be enlarged pores and redness of the skin under your arms. This can be due to a combination of friction from your clothes, too much sweating, or using too strong chemicals on the skin. As a suggestion, try to wear more loose clothes, use soap that has no fragrances, and keep the area dry. If the situation doesn't improve, visit a dermatologist for more options.

Skin cause I have white spots like watery in hands and legs what's this
Female | 20
White spots on your skin resembling watery on your hands and legs may be a condition known as eczema. Eczema can cause your skin to become dry, itchy, and red. It takes place when the epidermis barrier is damaged. You could help with eczema by keeping the skin moisturized with mild creams or ointments. Scratching the infected areas driving the course of the disease to a secondary infection.

Sudden bottom lip swelling red sore lip discolouration inside mouth problems tip of nose swells teeth problems joint pain
Female | 31
Your symptoms indicate you could have angioedema. It leads to unexpected lip swelling. Redness and soreness accompany this condition. Discoloration inside your mouth, and swollen nose tip too, might relate. At times, teeth issues and joint pain happen. Avoiding triggers like certain foods or medicines is wise. Using a cold compress can ease swelling. If it persists, see a dermatologist. They'll assess and treat it properly.

Can I use soframycin ointment on my nose piercing
Female | 17
Nose piercings sometimes get infected. Redness, swelling, pus appear when germs enter. Soframycin ointment doesn't treat piercing infections. Saline solution (saltwater) gently cleans the area. Rinse piercing multiple times daily. If symptoms persist beyond several days, consult a doctor. Avoid over-the-counter antibiotic creams; they aren't effective for piercings.

I have a sore on top of my head at first it started out like a pimple but now it is has spread and is it Hy and sore what could it be
Male | 46
These happen when bacteria get into hair follicles or oil glands, causing infection. To treat it, you should use warm compresses on the area. This helps drain it and heal it. Don't pick or squeeze the sore! That could make the infection worse. Keep the area clean by washing it gently. You can also try over-the-counter antibiotic ointments to aid healing. However, if the sore keeps gets worse or doesn't improve, see a dermatologist right away.

My roommate has said she had a cold sore for the last two days. And I’m a bit worried. She gave me a piece of food that she bit off of and offered me and also a drink (I didn’t drink off the straw, rather just our the cup) I’m a bit nervous, I’m not sure if she had an outbreak during those times but it was about two / three days ago. Could herpes be spread in that way? (I definitely could be uneducated but just a bit nervous)
Female | 20
Cold sores result from the herpes simplex virus spread by close contact such as kissing or sharing eating utensils. Nonetheless, passing herpes through sharing food or drinks is very unlikely. Signs may commence with a tingling sensation and itching feeling then develop into blisters on the lips or around the mouth. To avoid contracting herpes simplex virus, refrain from sharing cutlery and glasses besides washing hands often.

My skin tone has become very dark no glow on face and After sometime I am getting married and I want to make the skin a beautiful glowing So please suggest me what treatment should I do.
Female | 28
Achieving a beautiful, glowing skin tone before your wedding involves a combination of skincare and lifestyle practices. Consider incorporating the following steps:
Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin well-hydrated, which contributes to a natural glow.
Skincare Routine: Follow a consistent skincare routine that includes cleansing, toning, moisturizing, and sun protection. Consider using products with ingredients like vitamin C for brightening effects.
Chemical Peels: Consult with a dermatologist about chemical peels. These treatments can help remove dead skin cells, improve skin texture, and promote a radiant complexion.
Microdermabrasion: This exfoliation technique can contribute to smoother and more luminous skin by removing the top layer of dead skin cells.
Healthy Diet: Consume a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and antioxidants. These nutrients support overall skin health.
Avoid Sun Damage: Protect your skin from harmful UV rays by using sunscreen with adequate SPF. Sun exposure can contribute to darkening of the skin.
Before considering any treatments, consult with a dermatologist who can assess your skin type and recommend personalized solutions.

Hey, I'm 21 I have a wound and it feels bad. It's infected maybe. What can I do?
Male | 21
You may have a cut that has bacteria in it. Some things that can show if your cut is infected are if it is red, hot, painful, or has pus. Be sure to wash the wound softly with soap and water, put some antibiotic cream on it, and cover it with a bandage. Keep an eye on it and go to a doctor if it gets worse.

I am 18 years old female .I am suffering from itching of skin from last 2 months. It can suffer through out the body like under arms and around vaginal area and vaginal lips red bumps in it .please give me a suggestion and what can I do now?
Female | 18
The itching, red bumps, and discomfort around your armpits and vulva are very indicative of a condition like a yeast infection or dermatitis. They are a potential cause of soreness and itching. Use gentle soaps and creams with no fragrance, wear loose clothes, and never scratch the skin. You should consult a gynecologist for an accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Without a physical examination, it is difficult to understand your problem and the cause of it. I advise you to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis of your condition. Based on that, he may recommend the right treatment for your problem which can include antibiotic or anti-inflammatory creams.

I am 17 year old boy having a red bumps or pimple on penius body....1 pimple pooped and another started growing...pain is there...I can't sit properly
Male | 17
It sounds like maybe a zit or an inflamed hair follicle could be the reason for the pain or itching you might be having on your penis. These can occur due to sweat or humid conditions, lack of cleanliness, or tight clothing. The pain and discomfort can be mitigated by keeping the area clean and dry. Refrain from wearing tight clothes, and if there is pus, gently remove it by applying warm water. Please visit a dermatologist if it doesn't improve.

I am 15, I have rashes caused by insect bites on my arms, legs and face for over one year now, what should I do
Male | 15
Insect bites often lead to red, itchy rashes that can be quite annoying. These rashes are usually allergic reactions from your body. To relieve the itching, try using a soothing cream or lotion, and avoid scratching to prevent infection. Wearing long sleeves and using insect repellent can help reduce the risk of future bites. If the rash persists or worsens, consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

I am a 16 year old girl that had a dull sharp achey pain in the back of my knee that had now come up in a rash
Female | 16
Hypoallergenic A few potential causes of the issue are sunburned skin and allergies. There is another possibility of an infection. Clean and carefully dry the skin. If the rash doesn't heal, a cream that has a mild nature may be used to reduce the itching. In case the pain continues or gets worse, you\'d better seek help from a dermatologist.

I am 30 year old ,male and I have jock itch and I had laproscopic surgery for hydroneprosis and jock itch not curing ,what to do ?
Male | 30
Jock itch is the fungal infection which is the most common cause of the groin itching and redness. Since you've gone through surgery for hydronephrosis, you must keep the area well-hygienic and dry to treat jock itch. Using regular antifungal creams you can purchase without a prescription. Do not go for tight-fitting clothes and change into clean, dry ones often. If the jock itch persists, it's advisable to consult your dermatologist for the next steps.
