Is foreskin damage from masturbation normal?
I am 22 Male, my skin on underneath the foreskin of my dick is gone, like I think it’s due to the friction of my hand rings while masturbating

You may be suffering from some irritation on the skin under your foreskin. This could be due to the skin rubbing or rubbing a part of the ring that may have happened during masturbation. The nearby skin could be red, have a sore, or in some cases, may even have cuts. To enhance it, control the area from more friction and keep it clean and dry. If it doesn't improve, you might want to talk to a dermatologist.

Patient Query: Patient Name: Priyanka Age: 23 years Gender: Female Concern: Treatment for acne and pimples on the face. Kindly suggest the best course of treatment, skincare routine, and any necessary lifestyle or dietary changes.
Female | 23
Acne often arises from hormonal changes, excess oil, or bacteria. Start with a gentle cleanser daily, and incorporate a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Using a topical treatment with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can be effective. It’s also beneficial to focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while reducing sugary and greasy foods. Staying hydrated and managing stress through activities like yoga or meditation can further enhance your skin's health. I encourage you to consult a dermatologist for personalized treatment options tailored to your specific needs.

Skin atrophy is the thinning of the skin and it can happen for different reasons like aging, steroid abuse, or some medical conditions. Skin atrophy is the major issue and it is necessary to use gentle lotions and creams to keep your skin moisturized to solve it. Refrain from harsh chemicals and cover your skin from the sun. Eating a balanced meal full of vitamins and minerals can also help your skin. Always bear in mind that the major reason for taking good care of the skin is for the overall well-being of the body.

Hello, I have a wart/verucca for a few years now, a couple of days ago it was painful and i noticed that it was all yellow around, like it was inflamed, so i tried to drain it and i cut the inflamed part to the point where all 7 layers of my skin was gone and it left a hole, the dimensions of the area is about 1.5cm and it doesnt hurt anymore, should i be concerned or will it heal on it own?
Female | 18
Cutting or draining a wart at home can lead to infection and other complications. Since you've removed multiple layers of skin and created a hole, there is a risk of infection, scarring, or delayed healing. A professional can assess the wound, provide appropriate treatment to prevent infection, and determine whether any further steps are needed for healing

Female | 19
These reactions that you face may be due to different causes, such as skin issues, allergic reactions, or drought. To relieve the pain, keep the skin clean and moist, and do not scratch the area. Antihistamines may also be bought from the drugstore to help with itching. You can also consul a dermatologist to find out the cause and for proper treatment options.

Male 52..lately i have this sour and white toungue..scrap it off..it gone..but will come back again..im a smoker and drinker..what causes this..is it alcohol or smoking or caffiene
Male | 52
It appears that you are experiencing symptoms of oral thrush, a condition that causes your tongue to be covered in white. Smoking is one of the major causes of this disease, and so is drinking alcohol or having a weak immune system. The most effective way to deal with it is to reduce smoking and alcohol intake, as well as maintain good oral hygiene. Additionally, drinking more water can also help.

i randomly got a red lump on my upper back . it’s red but it does not hurt . it’s swore and there’s like a black hole in the middle of it too . it’s also pretty warm . i would think it’s a blackhead but i’m not exactly sure
Male | 24
It seems like you could be suffering from what is known as folliculitis, or skin abscess. These usually start as red lumps that are painful when touched and often contain pus inside. They are caused by bacteria entering the body through cuts on the skin but can also occur near hair follicles if they become infected. It’s important not to try and squeeze them because this could push the infection further into your system; instead, apply a warm flannel or hot water bottle wrapped in a towel over the area several times a day which should help draw out any trapped matter. If this issue continues, you can visit a dermatologist.

I have a lot of hair fall And sometimes pimples also form on the face. Earlier, a lot of pimples used to form on my face, then later they completely disappeared, but they have started forming again due to the heat, but I have a lot of hair fall. But I get periods every week and they are good ones You tell me why I have hair fall ????And sometimes my legs hurt too
Female | 22
Hair loss can occur from various reasons such as emotional stress, inadequately healthy diet, and hormone imbalances, which are also factors that create skin rashes. On the other hand, frequent cycles may also cause hair shedding. Leg pain could be attributed to overuse of muscles or muscle strain. Eat healthily, manage stress, and drink plenty of fluids. Talk to a dermatologist for tailored treatments.

Hello I'm lakshita and I'm 18 years old.. I'm facing small rashes inside my vaginal lips and a bit swelling on it.. I consulted doc and she gave me permethrin cream but it didn't give me results.. can you please suggest me some medication
Female | 18
Yeast infection or allergic reaction can be the reason for small rashes and swelling inside your vaginal lips. If the permethrin cream wasn't effective, you might need to try a different treatment such as an antifungal cream or oral medication. Make it a point to keep it clean and dry. Drinking enough water can also help. If the symptoms don't go away, see your dermatologist again.

I'm Prashant Sharma and I'm 18 years old. In winter season due to much cold my fingers of both foot and hand have swell and itching and it happens many times for last 4-5 years or may be from childhood I don't remember.
Male | 18
This problem could be caused by poor blood circulation or by your sensitivities to changes in temperature, consequently, those being potential indications of issues such as Raynaud's phenomenon. To ease the discomfort you feel, make sure that you keep your arms and legs warm and do not let the skin get wet, and perhaps also use moisturizers to deal with the dryness. In the event of persistent symptoms or exacerbation, I advise you to see a dermatologist to get an in-depth checkup. Strengthened by their professional advice and treatment choices, one finds the necessary personal mitigating factors.

Itching with dark black circles and also it is spreading in my body
Male | 21
Dark black circles spreading on your body seem difficult. Maybe it's eczema causing those itchy dry patches? Eczema makes skin irritated and dark. Left alone, it gets worse. Try gentle lotion, and avoid harsh soap. See a dermatologist if it won't go away. They'll help diagnose the problem and treat it properly.

I'm 20 years old female, Im having mouth ucers on and off. What could be the issue? Can I use omeprazole tablets for this?
Female | 20
Stress, neglecting oral hygiene, and certain foods can cause mouth ulcers. Usually, Omeprazole tablets are not used for the treatment of mouth ulcers as they mainly aid with stomach issues. For the treatment of ulcers, you can use over-the-counter remedies such as oral gels or rinses to reduce the pain and facilitate the healing process. Do not forget to maintain a proper dental hygiene routine and a balanced diet to keep them from returning.

Male | 16
Ringworm is a cutaneous infection which a fungus causes. Symptoms such as red, itchy, and scaly spots that look like circles may occur on the skin. The ringworm can be transmitted through contact with infected people, pets, or objects like shared towels. Therapy involves antifungal creams or tablets. You can also prevent the spreading of the infection by keeping the area clean and dry.

I saw few bumps on my chest black in color...my skin color is brown.They are few in number 3-4. I had fungal infection and I took medicine and anti fungal cream from my doctor which caused itchiness ,I started using NEEM soap which reduced those symptoms . But these bumps on chest remained , and I searched this on google and it showed extreme results so I'm concerned .please help
Male | 18
The lumps on your chest may be a frequent phenomenon doctors refer to as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is a condition that is characterized by skin discoloration because of the old inflammatory lesions like those caused by the normal Trychophyton infection. In brief, these lumps are just the parts of your skin that were affected and are now darker because of that. Neem soap was an appropriate choice to lessen the itching, but for these bumps, it is better to let them dissipate by themselves. If you notice any changes or the bumps do not get better, then it would be a smart decision to get a consultation with a dermatologist.

Best medicine for Skin allergy
Male | 59
Skin allergies can manifest as rashes, itching, redness, or swelling. They often result from reactions to substances like certain soaps, foods, or pollen. Over-the-counter antihistamines and topical creams may relieve symptoms effectively. However, identifying and avoiding the triggering allergen is crucial. If irritation persists or worsens, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment plan. They can suggest appropriate medications and help you gain a clearer understanding of what might be causing your reaction.

I have dengue and chikunguniya together my hands and legs are swollen much and someone prescribed me to take deflacort 18mg medicine. Whenever I take it my swollen things gone but whenever I stop taking it it goes bad and bad. what will I do now will I take it or not?
Female | 40
It's understandable to be concerned about your symptoms of swelling due to dengue and chikungunya. These conditions can lead to inflammation, causing discomfort in your extremities. Deflacort can help reduce this swelling, but relying on it continuously isn't a long-term solution. Consider monitoring your symptoms closely and re-evaluating the necessity of this medication with your healthcare provider. It’s important to address the underlying causes and explore other supportive treatments. Please consult your dermatologist to discuss your ongoing symptoms and the best approach to manage your health effectively.

Infections, injuries, or even a blocked milk duct could be responsible for this. Nipple pain might also be caused by hormonal changes at times. Over-the-counter pain relievers can be used to relieve the pain but if it persists, see a doctor.
