You may have jock itch, a common condition. It makes the groin area itchy and red. This includes the scrotum and foreskin. A fungal infection usually causes jock itch. To help, keep the area clean and dry. Try an antifungal cream for a jock itch. Wash and dry thoroughly before applying cream. Wear loose, breathable cotton underwear. Don't share towels or clothes, as the itch spreads easily. If home treatments don't help, see a dermatologist.

IM 17 YO OLD MALE AND I GOT THAT , WIGHT RIGID THING UNDER MY FORESKIN AND BIT PAINING
Male | 17
Among the known triggers are lousy hygiene, tight foreskin, and inflammation. Sanitation is probably the most critical phase, you have to make sure you wash the area very gently with mild soap and warm water. Refrain from using very strong products. If symptoms become more severe over time, or if the patient experiences discharge unlike what is normal, or if there is considerable pain, it is necessary to approach a dermatologist.

I have foreskin reddish and no pain no itching
Male | 42
Balanitis is the inflammation of the glans due to non-infectious or infectious causes. It is usually painless and non-itching but appears as a red rash on the foreskin. Poor hygiene, irritation from soap, or a yeast infection can result in this. The general care of the genitals focuses on hygiene, the area should be cleansed every day and dried completely. If symptoms persists consult a dermatologist.

I HAVE BEEN SUFFERING FROM RINGWORM ON MY BODY SINCE 6 YEARS WHEN I TAKE MEDICINE IT TOTALLY REMOVE. BUT WHEN I GIVE UP IT WILL RECOMES LIKE BACK TIME .
Male | 21
You've been dealing with ringworm for a long time. Ringworm is a common fungus infection that can appear in different parts of your skin and cause red, itchy, circular rashes. Furthermore, while the drug takes away the discomfort, returning too soon may lead to a relapse. Regularly washing your clothes and bedding will also help limit the infection.

I am 38 year old male. A few weeks back I noticed a bald patch on my head.
Male | 38
You may be suffering from alopecia areata. This is a condition where the immune system attacks the hair follicles leading to hair loss. It is usually sudden and appears as a bald patch on the scalp. While sometimes hair might grow back on its own, it can also be intermittent. For advice on possible treatments like steroid injections or creams, it would be best seen by a dermatologist.

s in pub there was lot of crowd.....there in my back means below the bumb someone pinch me with pin or injected something I don't know but that time area was red... what to do
Female | 21
It sounds like you may have experienced a minor injury or irritation in that area. Symptoms like redness can indicate a skin reaction, possibly from friction or an insect bite. To soothe the discomfort, gently clean the area with mild soap and water, and apply a cool compress. Over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream or antihistamine may help if itching is present. It’s essential to monitor for any signs of infection, such as increased redness or swelling. If symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical advice from a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and treatment. Your well-being is important.

My daughter has a small raised bumps on her Arms and legs my gp won’t see her until next week
Female | 8
From what you say, your daughter may be a candidate for a common skin condition called keratosis pilaris. It leads to small, raised bumps on the arms and legs. Potentially, these bumps may be rough and can be either red or flesh-colored. Keratosis pilaris is the result of the skin cells blocking hair follicles. Suggest her to use a scrub and moisturizing creams to help skin improvement. Stay away from rubbing or scratching the bumps. If the bumps don't disappear or get more severe, take her to a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis.

Female | 29
You may be having a skin reaction to the things you put on your wound. This has formed a stain on your knee. Temporary things like turmeric, garlic, and mustard oil can be used on the wound but may cause skin irritation. To facilitate the healing, discontinue those substances and keep the area clean. You may also find some relief by applying a light moisturizer. If it doesn't get better, see a dermatologist for more help.

Male | 26
Your skin has red, rough patches that itch badly. These rashes look bumpy or scaly. Itchy skin makes you want to scratch constantly. Many things cause this issue: allergies, eczema, insect bites. Fragrance-free moisturizer soothes inflamed areas. See a dermatologist if rashes worsen or don't improve.

What we do our face have pimples
Female | 41
When you see pimples on your face, don't worry, it's common and usually nothing serious. This occurs if your skin pores are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Indications may involve red lumps and whiteheads or blackheads. To avoid these pimples wash the face regularly with a mild soap, not always touching it, and use oil-free products for your skin. You can also visit a dermatologist if necessary.

I'm a 39 year old male, I think I have a ingrown hair in my pubic region, it's is red and sore to touch and slightly raised
Male | 39
It sounds like you may be experiencing ingrown hair, which occurs when hair curls back into the skin, leading to inflammation. The redness and tenderness you describe are common symptoms. To relieve discomfort, consider applying a warm compress to the affected area and avoid tight clothing. Exfoliating gently can also help prevent future occurrences. While these measures often suffice, if the irritation persists or worsens, I encourage you to consult a dermatologist. They can provide tailored advice and treatment if necessary, ensuring your well-being is prioritized.

Male | 22
The symptoms you described, which include itching, ringworm-like sores, wet blisters, and red/black spots, are characteristic of an allergic reaction. Boils and raised skin on the penis, the waist, and the abdomen may also be linked. Never scratching is the way to go if you want to avoid extra irritation. A calming soothing lotion would be helpful. If the symptoms continue or worsen, it is important to go to the dermatologist for the correct diagnosis and treatment.

A hair razor is not suggested on the skin as it can lead to cuts and bleeding. Despite the low rate of side effects, it is better to seek a generalist or a dermatologist if the wound is deep or has any signs of infection.
