Itching that persists for months and spreads between partners could be due to an infection or allergy. It's best to see a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment. Please visit a dermatologist to get the right advice and medication.

Hello! I am 29-year-old female, got stung by a jellyfish on 6th September in my right leg, pain was quite severe, we went to the emergency, I got some painkillers, now I use local and oral antihistamines, but the scars are still there and sometimes there is swelling and itching. No pain anymore. What else should I do? Is local methylprednisolone a good idea? Can I go to the swimming pool and/or run?

Female | 29

Jellyfish stings are common and can leave scars, swelling, and itching even after the pain subsides. Applying antihistamine creams can help with itching and oral antihistamines are recommended for swelling. If symptoms persist, a local methylprednisolone injection may be considered. It's best to avoid swimming and running until the scars heal to prevent further irritation.

I am Prem Choudhary 18years old, I had acne on my face I had not gone through any treatment before, I had oily skin in summer and dry skin in winter. I want consultation regarding this.

Male | 18

You have an oily skin and acne problem. This is usually due to the hormonal changes that occur during this age. Depending on the severity, treatment can be decided. Topical anti-acne creams or interval medications along with some cosmetic procedures will be required

Psoriasis? I think there's a very high chance I have psoriasis.

Female | 18

Psoriasis affects any part of the body and can be itchy, and painful. A dermatologist who specializes in the treatment of skin diseases should be consulted. Psoriasis can be managed well and the occurrence of flare-ups will also stabilize when diagnosed early, treated, or controlled.

I got hurt from a plastic chair and a small piece of my skin came off near my foot..It started bleeding but i didn't notice ..when i saw the wound the blood was already dried up so i cleaned it with water and didn't apply anything on it.. It's been 5 days since the injury and the wound is not healing..i applied some antiseptic cream on it later..it just hurts around that area and some kind of transparent liquid comes out occasionally.. what to do

Male | 19

The transparent liquid you see coming out is likely pus, a sign of infection. Try cleaning the wound daily with mild soap and warm water, then apply an antibiotic ointment. Keep it covered with a bandage to protect it. If it doesn't improve in a couple of days or if you notice increasing redness, swelling, or warmth around the wound, it's best to seek medical help.

I am 22 female. I have itchy pimples on my upper arm and back for the past 2 weeks. I have taken allergex. What could be the cause of this?

Female | 22

You may be suffering from a skin problem called acne. Acne is a consequence of hair follicles being blocked by too much oil and dead skin cells on your skin. Consequently, the skin can become red and itchy and pimples can occur. Allergies or some particular products may also aggravate acne. The best method to clear up the skin is to use gentle non-comedogenic cleaning products and keep your skin clean to the maximum.

Hello sir/ma'am please suggest me any skin cream. I used elosone ht cream over my skin for 3 month, that have affected my skin. And one of my friend told me that i have a skin atrophy. My skin where i use to apply the cream is completely covered with a dark layer. Can you please suggest me any cream so that the affected area can be fade out by time. Please ma'am its a humble request to you. It feels very bad and i cant even go outside due to this.

Female | 18

Using the cream may have caused your skin to become thin and fragile, a condition known as atrophy. The dark layer you see could be a result of this. Try using a gentle moisturizing cream with ingredients like aloe vera or oatmeal to help fade it over time. Avoid strong products and give your skin time to recover. Always do a patch test on new products before applying them to larger areas.

Having hair loss problem, male pattern hairloss with loosing hair density

Male | 22

People­ lose hair frequently, particularly male­s, due to genetic inhe­ritance. It can be observed through the thinning of scalp hair gradually ove­r time. Factors like gene­tics and hormones cause this condition. Treatme­nts exist to address hair loss, like minoxidil or finaste­ride medications. Additionally, living healthily and managing stre­ss can bring a positive impact. Consult a dermatologist for proper treatment
