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.

I fell asleep outside and got a painful sunburn on my leg. I went to softball practice and got hit in the leg with a softball. Am I allowed to ice it because I thought you couldn't ice a sunburn but it hurts to put pressure on it.
Female | 15
Sunburns are very painful, and getting hit by a softball on top of that is even worse. Applying ice won't harm the sunburn and can help reduce pain and swelling. Wrap the ice in a towel to protect your skin. If the pain is severe or doesn't improve, see a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Hi. I've a question regarding my niece's skin problem. She is a 7-years old. She has developed red patches of skin on her cheek, chin and around nose. The affected area of her cheek is very dry. I brought her to a doctor who prescribed two creams, mezoderm(betamethasone) and gentamicin-akos which made things far worse. Then at the pharmacy I was advised to use ftorokart(also a cream with triamcinolone) for my niece's face. After a few uses of the cream, I've seen some noticeable improvement in her skin condition since she started to use it. It took the redness out of her nose. But she still has rash and blisters on her face. I took photos of her face in case it might be helpful for you to identify the reason for her skin condition. Here are the photos of hers: https://ibb.co/q9t8bSL https://ibb.co/Q8rqcr1 https://ibb.co/JppswZw https://ibb.co/Hd9LPkZ Would you mind helping us to identify what caused this skin condition?

According to the symptoms and signs described, it appears to be a case of atopic dermatitis which is common among children of the mentioned age. It is a condition where the skin barrier is disturbed and is extremely sensitive to external environmental triggers like cold and dry weather, dust etc. It presents as red dry itchy patches on cheeks, hands and legs sometimes whole body. The above mentioned creams contain topical corticosteroids which are to be used with a great caution under the supervision of Dermatologist. Good barrier repairing creams including emollients with squalene, ceramides etc can help reviving the skin barrier. Steroid sparing drugs can be prescribed to manage the rash. Please consult a qualified Dermatologist and do not use topical corticosteroids without doctor’s advice as it may cause many adverse effects.

I don't know if it's jock itch because I sweat alot in that area or its am STI because I am sexually active
Male | 24
Either a jock itch or an STI can cause groin itching. Jock itch results from sweat and friction, leading to redness, itching, and rashes. An STI may have similar symptoms but is related to unprotected sex. Use antifungal creams for jock itch and practice safe sex to prevent STIs. Maintaining good hygiene is also important.

Hello sir/mam .i having pimple near anal opening from 1yewr not sure its is fisture or pimple.from last month it is hurting and feel like burning after I pass stool..while passing stool thr is no pain or feel like anything.
Male | 31
The condition you described seems to have a perianal abscess inflamed, thus causing the pus pocket to be painful and it may also burn. In addition, it might be an infection that happens when a blocked gland releases a fluid. Make an appointment with a dermatologist who will lead you to a proper treatment.

Hi, i am 29 year old. i have started getting pigmentation around my right eye and left cheek. which treatment do you recommend? and please suggest some good serum , i have tried a few but none working on my skin. Thank you!
Female | 29
Pigmentation around the eyes may be due to excess melanin in the skin, shadowing effect due to deep set eyes or due to thin skin around the eyes. Pigmentation around the eyes may be due to excess eye muscle strain, inadequate sleep, iron or vitamin B12 deficiencies, thyroid hormonal imbalance or constitutional. Dark circles may extend on to the cheeks leading to pigmentary demarcation lines. However if it is only on one side any trauma or underlying ophthalmologic cause should be ruled out with an Ophthalmologist’s opinion apart from a Dermatologist’s consultation. Topical cream/serum containing vitamin C, retinol, haloxyl, kojic acid , glycolic acid, etc in lower concentrations are recommended. Sunscreens, using sun glasses, anti glare screens on desktop/laptop etc may prevent further worsening of the condition. Laser toning with Q-switched yag laser, mild chemical peels may help. If the cause of dark circles is due to hollowness under the eye, hyaluronic acid fillers may help. For more help please visit dermatologist near you

My face skin is peeling for sometime I am getting little blood and I feel some burning sensation on my i just want to now what was fees and timings to visit
Female | 23
It looks like what you may have is a condition called eczema. This skin affection can lead to skin peeling, and tiny skin injuries, and thus make it easy to break your skin resulting in bleeding. A condition that is most often brought on by eczema may include dry skin, allergies, or irritating furtherance. The usage of non-abrasive moisturizers, the non-use of perfumed soaps, and the efforts to assess and avoid your stimuli can help you manage debilitating symptoms. Consult a dermatologist for personalized treatments.

Female | 20
Vitiligo is a medical issue leading to pale spots on skin areas. It happens when your body attacks its own cells. Or vitiligo may stem from inherited genes. There's no permanent fix, but creams and light treatment can help blend skin tones better. Sun protection is key to stop color changes. You can also visit a dermatologist for treatment.

Hairfall in 17 age this normal?
Male | 17
Experiencing hair loss at your age can be daunting, yet it’s normally linked to numerous factors such as stress, hormonal changes, or nutritional deficiencies. Regular indications include thinning hair or visible shedding. It is crucial for hair health to incorporate a balanced diet with plenty of vitamins and minerals. Besides this, you can also lessen the stress in your daily life by applying relaxation methods. In case, if you observe some major changes or are uncertain, I would advise you to consult a dermatologist.

Female | 22
Improvements can be seen in the majority of people after four months, but some may not have complete results. Scars usually get better with this treatment, but they may not disappear completely. Keeping your expectations in check is important, and you should be patient. Make sure you follow your doctor's instructions for the successful treatment.

"I am 22 years old and have noticed a small, painful lump on the right side of my chin. I've been smoking for the past two months, and a few days ago, I was in an accident where I landed on my right side. The lump is painful when I press on the bone side of my chin. Could you help me determine whether this might be something serious, like cancer, or if it could be related to the recent trauma from the accident ?
Male | 22
Your doctor might be right when he says you have a painful lump on your chin that is a manifestation of the recent trauma from your accident. The fact that it hurts when you press on the bone side of your chin suggests that the impact you experienced is the cause of it. Given your young age, it's less likely to be a malignant tumor. To be safe, try applying a cold compress to help with the pain and swelling. If the lump doesn't improve or worsens, you should go to a dermatologist for another opinion.

Male | 20
Stress is a common cause of these types of sores, but they can also be brought on by accidentally biting your mouth or eating certain foods. To keep them from forming, it is important to try and reduce stress as much as possible while staying away from anything spicy or acidic that may irritate the area more. Good oral hygiene will help prevent future outbreaks. Over-the-counter gels are available at most stores, which will numb the pain temporarily and speed up healing times. If none of this works or if they won’t seem to go away then please see a dermatologist/dentist for further assistance.

I have facial hair growth over both chin and upper lip. Its because of hormonal imbalance my DHEA level is 180. So may i know if laser hair removal will help get rid of this facial hair growth.
Female | 29
Laser hair removal can be an effective way to remove unwanted facial hair. But it is important to discuss any hormonal imbalances with your doctor before beginning a treatment plan. Laser hair removal may not be the best option for you if your DHEA level is high as this could lead to an increased risk of side effects. Your doctor may suggest other options such as oral medications, topical creams, or electrolysis.

Stress, poor nutrition, hormones, or genetics could be causing the problem so ensure that you eat well-balanced meals, find ways to relax, and use mild hair products. If the situation doesn’t improve within a few weeks then it would be best for you to see a dermatologist about it.

Female | 20
Acne marks and acne are worrisome but you are not the only one going through it. Acne occurs when the hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. The result of this may be pimples, blackheads, or scars. Here are some steps to help yourself: use a soft cleanser to wash it only twice a day. Opt for non-comedogenic (products that don't block pores) skin care products and avoid the temptation to pop or pick pimples. If the problem persists, the best course is to make an appointment with a dermatologist who will evaluate your incoming visit.

Small pearl size substance feel under skin on nearby elbow cannot see no pain
Female | 22
This is likely (or can be) what we call a cyst. Cysts are usually benign and arise when oil or skin cells are stuck under the skin. Oftentimes, these cysts don't give you any irritations and therefore do not cause any problems. If it is not bothering you, you can disregard it. But whatever the case may be, it is best to visit a dermatologist if it grows or starts to be painful.
