How Can I Speed Up Healing of Opened Breast Wound?
I am 23 years old and I did a breast surgery on 17th of march 2024 for removal of lump. The wound is yet to heal now. Few days after the surgery i noticed leakages from the stitches so i went back to the doctor then he stitched it again whivh made the healing process very slow. What can I do to heal the opened wound on my right breast? I find it difficult to bathe. I was prescribed ciprotab by the doctor and vitamin c (but I got the coloured ones instead) or should I have been using the white one? I already stopped the ciprotab

To help the wound heal, ensure that you keep it clean and dry, wash the area gently with some mild soap and water then dry. Any rough movements which might disrupt the stitches should be avoided. Consult with Your Doctor on the right type of vitamin C use, usually white because colored ones could have added ingredients. Should there be signs like increased pain, redness, swelling, or pus, then do seek medical Help immediately as this could mean infection.

Female | 16
You seem troubled by your nose's condition. A bump might cause nasal pain and growth sensation, making the tip droop, and the bridge appear crooked. Such changes can occur during development. Consulting a dermatologist would clarify the issue and find solutions for your discomfort.

I am a 18 year old male and im concuabout having hsv 1 and hsv 2, i was a little worried about what they look like because i saw something that looked unusual in both places.
Male | 18
It's important to get examined by a healthcare professional, like a dermatologist or a urologist, to diagnose any concerns regarding HSV-1 or HSV-2 accurately. Avoid self-diagnosis based on appearance, as it can be misleading. Early detection and proper medical guidance are crucial for managing any potential infections.

How to take care of oily skin and damaged hairs?? I have been taking medication for TB since June 2020. I have oily skin and additionally pimples too, on my face, hand and back. My face is looks dull and open pores are visible. Color of my body is getting darker day by day. I had grey hair issue so I have used hair color but now my hair is totally damaged. Please suggest something for my problem
Female | 32
The acne has to be treated accordingly as it is appearing in many parts of the body. The acne medications will control excess oil. Tuberculosis treatment may affect your hair as well as skin. I thus urge you to meet a dermatologist nearby and get evaluated for further treatment. Also start using anti-oxidant capsules, they will help a lot.

I have a lot of dark moles like structures on my face and skin, will I be able to remove it permanently. If yes, kindly let me know the method and cost. Thank you :)
Common procedures are laser therapy, excision or cryotherapy depending on the type and size of moles. Based on the methods chosen, number of moles or location can vary dramatically in costs. It is essential to seek advice from a dermatologist or any skincare specialist who could analyze your situation, suggest appropriate options and give an idea of the possible costs. The removal procedure should be carried out by a licensed practitioner to ensure safety and reduce the degree of scarring.

Hi....sir iam hvng white patches on my face somebody's told me hypopegmention,dry white patches both side nose upper eyebrows on chicks some says lyk piyturia alba some things plz tel me ointment.,
Female | 31
White patches can be pityriasis alba which is an allergic reaction due to climatic change that presents dry ill defined white patches or hypopigmented patches commonly seen in children but might also seen in adults as well. The treatment is mild topical steroids like hydrocortisone. Apart from this using sunscreen is important. White patch can also be vitiligo which requires more prolonged treatment. It is always advisable to have proper diagnosis by dermatologist either by online or offline consultation.

I am 21 years old and I have na itchy skin,I googled and saw that it's called hives since when it's itchy and I scratch I'm left with this things I googled called hives,it also comes with lip swell, there's a certain doctor who told me not to use medicine with sulphur and I stop using body lotions but I'm still suffering .what might be the problem and what can you recommend I use to end it.
Female | 21
You might have hives, which can be itchy skin and even swelling on your lips. Hives can be caused by different reasons such as allergies, stress, or infections. It is great that you have completely stopped using sulfur-containing products. Attempt to 'take an over-the-counter antihistamine' like diphenhydramine for help with itching and swelling. Besides, try to understand and avoid what could be the cause of your hives. If the issue persists, it is best to visit a dermatologist.

Common warts ko kese thik kare
Male | 19
Warts appear mostly on the hands and feet. Sometimes they have black dots inside them. Though not harmful, warts can be annoying. You can use over-the-counter salicylic acid to remove them. Keep the area clean and dry. Don't pick or scratch warts, or they may spread. If they don't go away, consult a dermatologist.

The outside could be an indicator of an underlying medical condition for a month’s duration of itching. It may be associated with allergies, skin infections and even long-term skin conditions like eczema. I recommend a visit to a dermatologist.

Small blisters on my penis glans ,it appeared two weeks ago. I consulted a skin specialist and applied a cream. After 5 days of treatment blister now looks like a round skin patch and new blisters appeared near to it. Am not feeling any itching or pain or any kind of discomfort because of it. As per doctor instruction I checked my blood glucose level and its 124. Is there anything to worry ... Help me
Male | 36
Round clusters and little blisters on the penis are probably symptoms of a herpes genitalia-like disease caused by a virus. This disease also leads to the appearance of new blisters, even after treatment. The grade of blood glucose that equates to 124 is a tad beyond normal, suggesting diabetes can be the case. Despite the absence of symptoms, visit your dermatologist to check and take care of it. Otherwise, unbearable pain or visual damage may become a result at a later stage.

I have white patch on my lips
Female | 28
Different factors can cause white marks on the lips. One of the main reasons is a fungal infection named oral thrush. This can happen if the immune system is not strong enough. Besides, it might be pathological damage from bites. To get to this point, it is necessary to do that. If the situation does not get any better, the pain becomes unbearable, and a meeting with the dermatologist is probably inevitable to get a diagnosis and cure the disease.

Need to talk ,wants to showy kid for itching
Female | 5
Itching in children can be due to a variety of reasons. Find out if the child has experienced any rashes or rough skin. Sometimes bugs or allergies also result in itching. The kid is supposed to wear loose clothes and use mild soaps. Moisturizing the skin with a mild cream every day is a must. If the itching does not go away or becomes worse, the best thing is to consult a dermatologist.

Male | 23
Measles can leave nasty scars. The itchy spots scratched frequently result in those black marks. Shield your face from sunlight. Use gentle skincare items too. A dermatologist could prescribe treatments for fading those scars. With time and proper care, their appearance will improve significantly.

As the lump on your neck is a crucial concern, a doctor should be consulted for its evaluation. This abnormality may be the symptom of a wide range of causes from a common infection to a benign growth. I advise you to make an appointment with a dermatologist or an ENT specialist for in-depth analysis and appropriate management.

Very Itching scalpe, dandruff problem, hair fall issue
Female | 25
The combination of these symptoms might direct that you have a commonly occurring skin problem called seborrheic dermatitis. Health deterioration may result in the appearance of red, irritated skin, flaking of the skin, and hair loss. The chief drivers of these are oily skin, a yeast type that is a natural inhabitant of the skin, and hormones. Moreover, you can use dandruff shampoo that contains ketoconazole or coal tar. When you are bathing, don't go hard on your hair and make sure you don't sunlight your scalp because it can result in difficult and painful inflammation.

The lotion possibly irritated your skin further. Here's how to ease the discomfort: Stop using the lotion immediately. Gently wash affected areas with mild soap and water. Apply an unscented, gentle moisturizer to hydrate and soothe irritated skin. Be vigilant about avoiding known allergens going forward.
