Could smoking and trauma cause painful chin lump?
"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 ?

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.

- Resistant acne and severe acne not responding to conventional treatments needs the consultation of a qualified dermatologist. Most of the times resistant acne has underlying hormonal imbalance which has to be diagnosed and addressed. Certain conditions like PCOS, insulin resistance, steroid abuse, certain drugs may be cause of severe acne. A dermatogist may advise certain blood investigations, to understand the cause behind acne and may prescribe drugs like Oral contraceptive pills, oral retinoids or antibiotics along with procedural treatment to treat the acne and long term resolution
- Genetic tone of skin cannot be changed. However tan or any other acquired skin pigmentation can be improved by topical creams, sunscreens etc. chemical peels, laser toning and other procedures can help in stubborn pigmentation

Female | 8
A crack in the heel, arch, and ball of the feet can be painful. This can happen due to dry skin or standing for a long period. Make sure she wears the best comfortable shoes that she has. Apply a thick moisturizing cream daily to keep her feet soft and hydrated. Water is super important too. This will assist in stopping the cracks from coming back. Iif she still has the issue after some time, then see a dermatologist for more advice.

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 have dull uneven skin with age spots and pigmentation. How can I completely reduce it and get an even glowing skin?
Female | 46
The process can be caused by sun exposure, aging, or hormonal changes. You can enhance skin conditions using skincare products with retinol, vitamin C, and niacinamide. Don't forget to apply sunscreen daily and don't stay in the sun The use of the same skincare products every day can lead to the expected outcome. If the condition doesn't improve, visit a dermatologist.

The scar might come from a small injury or irritation you didn't notice. Since it's not causing discomfort, that's positive. However, monitor the area closely. If it starts bothering you or changes appearance, consulting a dermatologist would be wise.

Male | 32
The mild pain and fever may also be related to an infection. The swelling on the skin is a sign that the skin is inflamed. This type of infection may be the result of bacteria or viruses. To get rid of this, you might have to use antibiotics that are prescribed by a dermatologist. Cleanliness and dryness of the area will facilitate quick healing of the injury.

I have dry patches on elbow and some on breast and legs
Female | 30
You might have eczema - a skin condition that manifests as dry itchy patches. Eczema can be set off by things like rough soaps, allergies, or stress. In this case, use gentle, non-scented soap, moisturize your skin regularly, and stop scratching the dried patches. If it worsens or doesn't improve, it's a good idea to see a dermatologist.

I am 25 years old female, i facing with very severe butt achne from last 5 years, it has been increasing due to prolonged sitting due to wfh, please suggest some otc medication or solution
Female | 25
It's a common issue when sweat and oils get trapped in our skin pores. Prolonged sitting can make it even worse. The best over-the-counter treatment is to use a mild cleanser with salicylic acid to shrink the pores. To that end, also, take breaks from sitting and keep the area clean and dry. Stay hydrated and wear loose, breathable clothing.

This could mean you have eczema. Eczema makes skin red, itchy and inflamed in patches. Many things can trigger it, like allergies or irritants. To help, keep skin moisturized. Don't use harsh soaps. Try a gentle moisturizing cream or ointment instead. You can also visit a dermatologist.
