You have an infected hair follicle in your armpit, causing pain and swelling. This often happens when bacteria enter small cuts from shaving. Applying a warm compress on the area a few times a day can help reduce the swelling. You can also use an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment to clean the area and speed up healing. If the pain and swelling don’t improve or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

My all body itching and scar
Male | 25
You may have a skin disorder such as eczema. Eczema, a condition that causes your skin to itch and scar at the same time, could be one of the reasons. Scratching your skin at night may lead to red, swollen areas. Eczema is often triggered by allergies, stress, or harsh substances like certain soaps. Applying non-irritating, unscented massage oils made of natural ingredients is beneficial for your skin. It is essential to hydrate your skin regularly and avoid harming it while trying to relieve the itching to prevent scarring. If the itching and scarring persist, see a dermatologist for expert advice.

What to do to get rid of pimples on my face
Female | 23
When your skin's tiny holes get blocked by oil and dead cells, red bumps appear. Pimples can bring pain. To get rid of pimples, wash your face twice with a gentle face wash. Don't pick or squeeze them. Use products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. These can help. Keep hair clean. Don't touch your face often. Eat healthy foods. Drink lots of water. If pimples still won't go, see a dermatologist.

I have blisters on my perineum for 4 days. No discharge, no bleeding . The pain comes and goes . I have never had this before please assist
Female | 26
Blisters can be due to friction, an allergic reaction, or even a viral infection like herpes. No discharge or bleeding has been reported, therefore, it is more likely that it is not an infection. Keeping the area clean and dry and avoiding tight clothes will be the simplest way to do so. However, it is still better to consult a dermatologist in case the blisters persist or get worse.

Hi my daughter has a spot on her tummy and it's painful to touch and it's all red with little white spots around it
Female | 4
Your daughter most probably has a skin infection called Impetigo. A painful, red spot with white spots around it is a symptom of this illness. This is due to bacteria entering the skin, which usually happens when a cut or insect bite is present. To deal with this issue, keep the area clean, apply antibiotic cream, and cover it with a bandage. Make sure she doesn't scratch it to prevent spreading the infection.

I have really big air blisters on both my big toes
Male | 18
Foot blisters often happen when shoes rub against the skin. Big air blisters on your big toes can be particularly uncomfortable. To help them heal, try cushioned bandages and well-fitting shoes. Don't pop them yourself, that risks infection. Visit a dermatologist if you need to.

16 year old female. I have heat rash that only occurs on my fingrrs and feet and my skin peels of around those blisters. I have had several doctor attend to me but they could not figure what it is. Some evn suspected to be a fungal infection.it does not affect my entire body like othe r beat rashes do to other people.i have used medicine like Miconozole cream but none changes
Female | 16
This could be the cause of having blisters and corpses on your hands and feet. Miconazole creams usually work when infections are caused by fungi, but if you have tried everything else and Miconazole failed, you can investigate other potential causes such as allergic responses or irritant contact dermatitis. I recommend you to see a specialist in dermatology who will perform the complete examination and offer the most effective treatment that will reduce your symptoms.

Male | 38
Patchy hair loss like alopecia areata is a common condition. It may show up on any part of the body which is covered by hair. The prescribed medications are often utilized for the treatment of this condition; however, sometimes, the results may take longer to become visible. If you don't see improvement after 20 days, discuss it with your dermatologist. They could recommend alternative treatment methods to enable you to overcome this challenge.

Fungal infection hua hai baat karna hai
Male | 23
Fungal infections may create symptoms such as itching, redness, as well as irritation of the skin or even mucous membranes. They are usually the result of warm and humid environments or weakened immune systems. Keeping the affected areas clean and dry is crucial to reduce the discomfort. The absence of over-the-counter antifungal creams may help, but seeing a dermatologist is a good decision for personalized advice and treatment options.

I am having a fever since yesterday and red rashes come out, then they go away and come back but still I am having trouble getting up
Female | 23
You might have a viral infection causing your fever and red rashes. That the rashes go away and come back may be a sign that the virus is still present. Through this, you will be able to alleviate the symptoms. Moreover, you can take a pill such as acetaminophen for your fever. If it doesn't get better in a couple of days, a dermatologist might have to see you.

Female | 30
Skin conditions that are common to individuals of all ages include acne. It is marked by small bumps on the face and other areas of the body. These bumps are due to blockage of the pores and excessive sebum production. To avoid acne it is necessary to visit a dermatologist who specializes in diseases of the skin. They can prescribe treatments, including creams that you apply directly on the skin or take oral medication as well as other procedures recommended by doctors to make acne go away and not reoccur.

Male | 20
I advise you to follow a proper skincare routine which includes washing your face twice a day with gentle cleanser and using a moisturizer that suits your skin type. Also, while going out wear a sunscreen with at least SPF of 30. Also, exfoliating 1-2 times a week can help. And avoid touching or squeezing your pimples as this can make your problem worse. For more help and guidance regarding your dark spots, I recommend visiting a dermatologist. I hope this proved helpful.

I’m having redness on my penis and trying to see wat it is
Male | 26
The reason could be a skin condition known as balanitis, which frequently causes red spots, itchy skin, and swelling around the genital area. It may be due to negligence in personal hygiene, irritation from soaps, and in some cases, a yeast infection. Always make sure to use only plain water for washing and avoid using strong soaps. If the redness remains the same or worsens, it's better to visit a dermatologist for some more advice and treatment.

You have an oily skin and acne problem. This is usually due to the hormonal changes that occur during this age. Depending on the severity, treatment can be decided. Topical anti-acne creams or interval medications along with some cosmetic procedures will be required

Hi Doctor, I have pain and swelling on my left buttocks. It feels like a pimple, but atleast the size of a golf ball.

You are suffering from a band called pilonidal cysts. These swellings may lead to discomfort and soreness in the rear end. Pilonidal cysts are the results of hair follicles blocking each other. If you are looking for natural remedies, you can use warm compresses and over-the-counter pain relievers to ease the pain. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

I was bitten by a tick a week ago. I got it out s day later when i noticed it but couldn't get its head out. Its starting to itch and looks like a slight rash. Should i be worried or will it go away on it's own?
Female | 35
When ticks bite, it can cause itching, rash, and redness on the skin. If the tick’s head remains in your body, it may result in an infection. To alleviate this, wash the affected area with soap and water then apply an anti-itch cream. Watch out for any signs of infection like increased redness or pain; should you notice any seek medical attention immediately.

I am using salicylic acid cleanser and niacinamide serum. Does using orange peel paste once a week affects skin or will it get along with salicylic acid and niacinamide skin care routine
Female | 22
This is a safe approach if you include orange peel paste in your skin care regime once per week. However, one must be aware that it could irritate or sensitize the skin in some cases. Be sure to do a patch test with the orange peel paste before using it along side salicylic acid cleanser and niacinamide serumand if any adverse reaction occurs, then stop its use.

I am a 17 year male .. i am having a infection below my lips ... it is very disturbing and so many spots are there in my face
Male | 17
It is apparent that you might have an infection because there might be bacteria or irritation, or the reason may even be viral. The symptoms like spots and feelings of unease can be discomforting, but most of the time these are dismissed as false concerns. It is crucial to keep the area clean and not to pick at the spots. Over-the-counter topical treatments might work; however, I suggest you talk to a Dermatologist first for a more accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.

72 years old male with wart like small multiple pimples on thigh and back for the past 1 week Extreme burning sensation and unable to sleep Wants to attach pic but no option available
Male | 72
These pimples signify an infection called shingles, which takes place due to the emergence of intense burning and blisters on the skin. The incidence of shingles results from the reactivation of the chickenpox virus in your body. Step one in calming down the discomfort and sleeping well is to apply a cool, damp cloth to the damaged areas to cool the burning feeling and consume over-the-counter painkillers. You must see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and start the proper treatment.
