Pimples can occur due to excess oil production in the skin and impurities clogging the pores with dirt or dead skin cells. Sometimes, the cream you used before may no longer work because your skin can develop a tolerance to it. I suggest you try a different cream or face wash containing either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid, which can help unclog pores and treat your pimples and blackheads. Remember to wash your face gently twice a day and avoid touching your face too much. If the problem persists or worsens, don’t hesitate to consult a dermatologist for a thorough examination and personalized treatment.

Pimples appearing on face which is best gel clindamycin phosphate gel with benzoyl peroxide or clindamycin phosphate gel with niacinamide??
Female | 21
Pimples can be annoying, but there are solutions to help. These spots come from blocked pores and germs. A gel with clindamycin phosphate and benzoyl peroxide can kill bacteria and reduce swelling. Alternatively, clindamycin phosphate with niacinamide may be better for redness and irritation. Both options work well, so you should pick the one best for your skin type. Not sure which to try? Start with one, then switch if it doesn't help.

Im a 19old girl I have ringworm issue in my face and neck area I'm facing this issue from many year recently I'm having redness and ringworm on my forehead
Female | 19
You are likely facing a skin infection called ringworm. Ringworm may invade the skin and cause the area to become red and itching. Ringworm is a fungal infection that is caused by a fungus. This fungus develops in warm and moist areas of the body. To clear up the ringworm, use antifungal creams or ointments recommended by a pharmacist. The best way to say dry is through keeping the affected areas clean and dry.

Male | 69
The rash may occur because of various causes, such as allergies, infectious agents, and skin disorders. Reporting may cover redness, itching, or bumps. To aid it, wash with mild soaps, avoid irritants, and keep the area free of moisture and dirt. If it doesn't disappear or you have any other symptoms, you are advised to go to a dermatologist.

Reoccurring fungal infection at thigh area
Male | 24
Redness, itching, and rash can be caused by fungal infections. These occur when specific fungi come into contact with your skin. To treat these infections, you can use antifungal creams or pharmacy powders. During treatment, ensure the affected area is always clean and dry, as fungi thrive in warm, moist environments. If there is no improvement, consult a dermatologist. To aid your skin's healing and prevent future infections, wear loose-fitting clothing and cotton underwear, which help keep your skin dry and allow it to breathe.

Last night, while masturbating, i got a friction burn (of a size of pea) on my glans penis & it became reddish .... my semen came in contact with it for some minutes.... will it lead to the formation of anti sperm antibodies?
Male | 25
A friction burn on the penis head can make it red and uncomfortable, especially if semen touches it. However, the risk of developing anti-sperm antibodies from this is low. To aid healing, keep the area clean and avoid further irritation. If you notice any unusual symptoms or concerns, it's always wise to seek medical advice.

hello i had a infected ingrown toenail removed yesterday afternoon and it’s bruising really bad from the numbing shots and is very sore is that a concern of a infection or
Female | 17
Swelling, pain, and discoloration in the toe are normal after the ingrowing toenail is removed because of the bruising. It may be from the shots that removed the sensation in the area. Don't worry; if it's been a day since the procedure, the formation of a bruise is common. Temperature, severe pain, redness of skin, or the presence of any pus are signs of infection. Follow the recommendations for keeping the region spotless, raising your foot, and taking painkillers. If you think you set out signs of infection, contact a dermatologist.

I have acne form past 5 years and I have broken my pimples so I have scars and spots on my face my skin is oily plz tell me what to do
Female | 20
You've had this infection for a long time, and it's now your ongoing skin issue. One aspect of your condition is that it's almost inevitable to get a scar or spot here and there when you pop a pimple. Along with other factors contributing to this issue, oily skin can promote acne formation and expansion. Acne is a major skin concern caused by clogged hair follicles with oil and dead skin cells. If you're dedicated to improving your skin, using a gentle cleanser, avoiding picking at pimples, and choosing products with suitable ingredients can make a real difference, even if it's gradual. You should visit a dermatologist for proper treatment.

A few days ago I noticed a bump on my head and I thought I just hit my head. After a couple days it started to get a bit bigger and I noticed that it was a pimple on my scalp. I popped the pimple and removed all the pus and it started to bleed for a little bit but it shortly went away. I went to take a look at it today and I noticed a small circular bald spot about 1 cm in diameter where the pimple used to be. When touching the area with my hand I noticed that the hair in that area is really sensitive and can fall out if I rummage my hand through that area. Is this a concern or is this something normal?
Male | 21
A small circular bald spot on the scalp after popping a pimple is not uncommon, but if the area is sensitive and hair is falling out, please see a dermatologist to rule out infection or other underlying conditions.

Yeast infections are normally triggered by a kind of fungus. They tend to occur more frequently when the body’s balance has been disturbed. Symptoms may include itching, irritation, and abnormal discharge. To treat it, you can use over-the-counter antifungal creams or suppositories. Wearing cotton underwear is advisable too, as well as staying away from tight clothing. If it keeps coming back, consult with a gynecologist for further guidance.

Hi, my brother is having these white spots on his back right below neck. It was a tiny spot and now it is increasing. What should we do?
Male | 29
Your brother may have a condition called tinea versicolor. It occurs when areas of the skin get discolored with white pigmentation. Since there are yeasts that occur, they are the result of the infection of the skin. The circles get bigger if the weather is warm and wet. Use an antifungal cream or medicated shampoo to help you out. Visit a dermatologist to get a proper solution for his condition.

Hi, I had sclerotherapy done on Wednesday last week. My veins look a lot worse, they as re purple and more visible, there is no brusing and they are also quite sore to the touch/I can feel tiredness in my legs. My doctor said I may have had an allergic reaction to the therapy because I am on holiday in a hot country (Brazil) and prescribed me an antihistamine. Will the veins eventually fade or will I need more treatment?
Female | 28
Bruising and discomfort after sclerotherapy are natural which normally resolves within a few days. But since you said your veins look worse and are more visible after the procedure could indicate a complication. It's good that you have already spoken with your doctor, but still experiencing discomfort or have any concerns, follow up with them promptly.
In some cases the veins may fade on their own over time, but if the issue is related to the sclerotherapy procedure, additional treatment can be needed. Its best to follow up with your doctor to discuss your options and determine the best treatment.

I am a 25 years old female. I suddenly work up and had herpes and this is the first time, I have never had it or known anyone that has. I haven't kissed anyone in 6 months or more. The last places I was at was work which was a rave last Thursday and on Sunday it was a bit calm. Is it possible I got it from the rave cause I can't understand how I have this rash on my lip and my lips are swollen. I am currently taking Aciclovir tablets and using the cream as well.
Female | 25
Herpes on the lips are called cold sores. They're caused by the herpes simplex virus. This virus spreads through close contact or shared objects like cups and straws. Getting it from the rave is unlikely since the virus doesn't live long outside the body. Taking Aciclovir tablets and using the cream is a great approach! These medications help make the outbreak less severe and shorter. Don't touch or pick at the sores to prevent spreading the virus more. Visit a dermatologist or general physician for further consultation.

I’m Aryan Soma, age-21. I am having severe acne/cysts problem. I have visited many dermatologist. But it didn’t worked now because of my tablets and all. Im having a hairfall issue which I can’t bare. Im here to ask you? Do you have a permanent solution for this with quick results like laser treatment.
Male | 21
Acne cysts are the most severe form of acne which need immediate attention for they may lead to permanent acne scars. Intralesional corticosteroid injections are given into the acne nodules and cysts are drained for faster resolution of nodules and cysts. Diagnosing and treatment of underlying cause is essential to resolve the acne. Oral retinoids are to be recommended in your case. If hair fall is an issue, Dermatologist may recommend blood tests like serum ferritin, vitamin B12, TSH, vitamin D etc which may be the cause of hair fall. Using the right hair supplements with doctor’s prescription according to the deficiencies, may help treat the hair fall concern. Topical solutions containing Capixyl, Minoxidil etc are also recommended to control hair shedding and promote hair growth.
