It is not acne.Its bacterial infection. You need to apply Antibiotic ointment to it. To prevent frequent infections, you should go for laser hair removal. it will keep the area clean and hygienic.

I got acne on whole face first there is pimple and it convert into mark or acne . Or having white spot ,uneven tone the texture is very bad like hyperpigmentation.

Female | 23

Pimples occur when oil and dead skin cells block hair follicles thus leading to a condition called acne. The marks are usually a result of inflammation in the skin. Instances that can be white spots and not consistent in color are marks of hyperpigmentation. Be gentle to your skin, do not pick your skin, and use products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.

Does Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim cure Chlamydia?

Male | 19

Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim also recognized as Bactrim is not usually used in treating chlamydia. This is because it is a bacteria that spreads through intimate contact. This may lead to painful urination, unusual discharge, and sometimes no signs at all. Normally, antibiotics such as azithromycin or doxycycline are used to cure chlamydia. If you suspect that you have the disease, it is important to get tested and treated so as to avoid any further complications.

Hello doctor, I am 36 years old male and I have had mycosis fungoides for around 3-4 years. My staging concluded as 1A. I have not received any systemic chemotherapy, I have received only topical treatment with clobetasol and bexarotene creams and now my patches are mostly gone. I haven't had serious new patches in more than a year. I am about to get married and start a family. And my question is, can I have kids while having mycosis fungoides ? Would it increase the chances of my kids to have MF ?

Male | 36

Yes, you can have kids with mycosis fungoides. However, it is advised to discuss your plans with your dermatologist who can help guide you through the process. While there is no known risk of your children developing mycosis fungoides, it is important to monitor your children for any skin changes and to seek medical attention if any concerns arise.

Male | 19

At this age, hair fall and thinning can be upsetting. These problems can be due to various factors like heredity, stress, diet, or hormonal changes. Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used together to stop hair loss and promote hair growth. It is best to visit a dermatologist to know how often to use them. Starting the treatment is the first step to improving your hair condition, but you should also be patient and wait for some time to see the results.

Hi Doc , I have noticed some smal red dots in my penis . What could be?

Sometimes dots appear on the penis, but don't panic. Maybe they're irritated follicles or small blood vessels. They could also signal eczema or a fungal infection. If you feel pain, itchiness, burning, or the dots persist, talk to a dermatologist. They'll identify the cause and recommend treatment. .

Female | 22

You appear to be suffering from a skin ailment that might be triggered by a fungal infection, usually manifested as itchiness, redness, or rashes. Causes such as moisture, heat, and friction may result in this condition. To lessen the body's discomfort, the area should be kept dry and an antifungal powder or cream available over the counter should be regarded. Moreover, wearing loose clothes can aid in lessening the discomfort. Nonetheless, it's vital to seek advice from a dermatologist if the signs persist or become more severe.

Hello , I'm facing diffuse thinning in my hair for the past one year my temples are so thin and my crown is also thin and overall volume of the hair is low I've been taking minoxidil for 3months I haven't seen any results how long does it take and should I start taking finasteride

Male | 18

Thinning hair can be due to several factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, and health conditions. Minoxidil takes around four to six months to start working so be patient. If you are thinking of using finasteride, it is a good idea to talk to your dermatologist first and find out if it is the right option for you.

Small Nodule on eyebrow

Male | 3 month

A tiny bump near your eyebrow is probably a cyst or a skin tag, which are common and not usually a concern. They can form from a clogged oil gland or a blocked hair follicle. If it’s not bothering you, it’s okay to leave it alone. However, if it grows bigger, changes color, or starts hurting, it’s best to have it checked out.

I am 27 years old female I have pimples on the face I have applied many cream and soaps which are not working fr my skin what to do naw? Can u suggest me cream and soap / face wash which is good. Fr daily use without side effects

Female | 27

I suggest a gentle, non-comedogenic cleanser such as a mild gel face wash containing salicylic acid which can help treat breakouts. Try out oil-free moisturizers for moisturizing. Let go of the use of harsh scrubs and put sunscreen on top of your list during the day. After trying the over-the-counter methods for two to three weeks and not getting any results, ask for suggestions from a dermatologist who can customize a solution.

My name is Shankar Dayal Gupta I am 55 years old. For the past four-five months there is something round like a ulcer on the left side of my mouth. The area in which it occurred That place got tight and I am not feeling any pain and I am not facing any problem in eating.But I am very tensed after seeing the ulcer I don't understand anything what happened

Male | 55

The round ulcer on the left side of your mouth might be due to a lot of reasons, like biting your cheek accidentally or a viral infection. Since you are not feeling any pain or eating difficulty, it seems to be a minor issue. You can try swishing your mouth with warm salt water or avoiding spicy and hot foods for a couple of days and see if it helps. If it doesn't go away after a week or two, it's best to have it checked by a dentist to be safe.

I have vitiligo seens 13years.my age is 25.what ointment or medicine should I take?

Female | 25

Vitiligo is a condition where white spots show up on skin. It occurs when pigment-producing cells malfunction. No cure exists, but treatments aid. Topical steroids or calcineurin inhibitors work best. They restore some color to affected areas. Sun protection is crucial, as exposure worsens symptoms.

Female | 39

You might be suffering from a condition called demodex infestation. Demodex is a type of tiny mite that settle on the face's hair follicles and oil glands. Typical symptoms include itching, hair loss from the eyebrows, and a crawling sensation on the skin. You may choose to use medicated creams or shampoos prescribed by a dermatologist in response to this. Your face must be cleaned regularly and also steer clear of greasy products.

Female | 21

Worrying over acne scars is common, yet solutions exist. Scars form when skin sustains damage during breakouts. Creams with retinoids or vitamin C can gradually fade scars. Consistency is key; visible improvement takes weeks. Clean, moisturized skin is crucial too. Before starting any new treatment, consulting a dermatologist is wise to ensure the safety of your complexion.

This could be caused either by dry skin, irritation, or even an infection. But don't worry, applying a gentle moisturizer will help you to keep your skin hydrated. Avoid using your fingers to scratch or pick at the area. If it doesn't improve, consult a dermatologist for further advice.

These small bumps on your cheeks may be acne. Acne develops when the hair follicles are clogged with oil and dead skin. It is commonly seen during puberty and when hormonal changes occur. You should wash your face gently with a mild cleanser and let the bumps be. If it bothers you so much, it is recommended that you see a dermatologist for further advice.
