Dermatology

Answered by Dr. T N Rekha Singh

Dandruff in the scalp is due to excess sebum (natural oil) production along with increased activity of a fungus called Malassezia in the scalp. Antifungal shampoos containing Ketoconazole, Ciclopirox, selenium sulphide can help treat the dandruff. If it is severe, oral antifungals are also prescribed for a short duration. Salicylic acid, coal tar shampoos are also prescribed in case of excess flakiness of scalp. Hair fall may be due to dandruff, nutritional deficiencies, stress or due to genetic factors. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist who can diagnose the cause of hairfall and may suggest treatment accordingly. Trichoscopy of the scalp may help in understanding the nature of the scalp and condition. Nutritional supplements, Capixyl containing serum, Minoxidil solution, oral supplements containing vitamin and minerals are prescribed by the dermatologist to treat the hair loss. Change in hair colour in beard and scalp may be due to nutritional deficiencies or strong hair colours or genetic causes. Dermatologist’s help may be needed to treat the same. Calcium pantothenate containing supplements may help slow down the greying and sometimes restore the colour of hair.

Your preoccupation with dandruff, hair fall, and premature graying can be inspired by different reasons. It is best to practice proper hair hygiene, use anti-dandruff shampoos, and consider the consumption of a healthy diet with all required vitamins and minerals. However, if the problems continue, it is suggested to visit a dermatologist or trichologist for a detailed analysis and an individual treatment program.

I have warts problem and I want to know how to remove this from my system.

Male | 31

Warts are skin growths caused by a virus. They appear on hands, feet, and elsewhere. Bumpy, with black dots. Usually painless, but bothersome. Try over-the-counter medicated patches or freezing sprays to remove. If those fail, see a dermatologist. They offer prescription meds or procedures to remove stubborn warts.

I have been for four years keratosis pilaris How can I fix the skin problem?

Female | 20

Chicken skin is a condition where your skin feels bumpy, and rough, like sandpaper. Keratin buildup blocks hair follicles, causing this. Using mild cleansers helps. Moisturize often. Gentle exfoliation smooths bumps. Lactic acid or urea products reduce roughness. It's common but usually improves gradually.

Hello I have been having a skin infection of something that looks like ringworm. It starts like a pimple and later widens into different sizes. It started appearing on my thighs and is now appearing on every other part of my body except my face and scalp. There are moments when my skin is void of any but on other periods it appears almost every where with a lot on my fingers and palms. It's been on and off for more than 10 years now. I've consulted several dematologist with each having a different diagnosis and prescribing different creams to be applied on the affected spots but those have not helped me in any way. I truly do not know what else to do. Please help.

Female | 27

Ringworms often spread and return if not treated well. Fungal infections love warm, damp body areas. Antifungal creams don't always work for severe and stubborn infections. I suggest seeing an experienced dermatologist. They can evaluate your unique condition much better and recommend medications or other treatments suitable for this.

I had my hair waxed a few days ago and now my hair is working.

Male | 42

You might have ingrown hairs from waxing. Ingrown hairs grow into the skin, not out. They can make skin red, swollen, and sore. To help, wear loose clothes. Use warm washcloths on the area. Gently scrub off dead skin cells. Don't pick up ingrown hairs. It could cause infection. If it doesn't get better or gets worse, talk to a dermatologist.

Acne and scars can often be linked to hormonal changes, excess oil production, and inflammation. To improve your complexion, consider establishing a gentle skincare routine that includes a cleanser, toner, and moisturizer suited for your skin type. Over-the-counter products with ingredients like salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide may help. Additionally, maintaining a balanced diet, drinking plenty of water, and avoiding picking at blemishes can support healing.

Hi I got red spot and dots because I sat on the toilet with disinfectant it’s itchy and it appeared few days after

Female | 21

You might have a skin reaction to the disinfectant. The red spots and dots, together with the itchiness, may be caused if your skin comes in contact with a strong chemical such as bleach. For this, wash the area with soap and water gently so that you remove any disinfectant residues. The next time you use a mild disinfectant instead. Your skin needs time to recover, so if it gets worse instead of a percentage, see a dermatologist for more care.

"Hey, I just noticed that today my blood vessels are a purple color, and when I try to touch them, it doesn't cause any pain only a little bit of sore otherwise im fine. It started today, and I don't feel any symptoms at all. im not on any medication.

Male | 20

Purple blood vessels on the skin can look unusual, but they're usually not a big deal. Increased pressure might make them more noticeable. If there's no pain or other symptoms, it's probably nothing to worry about. Try elevating your legs and avoiding standing for too long. However, if you're concerned, see a dermatologist for treatment.

Balanitis, or inflammation of the penis, is a common disease that may be the cause of your symptoms. The red rashes, itching, and burning sensation while peeing are common symptoms of balanitis. This can be the result of a poor hygiene regimen, fungal infections, or irritation from chemicals or materials.

I had one pimple in my lips and I break it .now my lips become so swelling and then i went to hospital they give allergy tablets but no result for me

Male | 31

Most often, this reaction is due to the inflammation or the infection. Even though antihistamines are one alternative, they may fail to be of use if edema is due to something else. To make you feel more comfortable, clean and moisturize the affected area first and foremost. Steer clear of irritants and think twice before you squeeze any more out. If the swelling persists or worsens, see a dermatologist to get the issue diagnosed correctly.

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.

Hi my name is farhin begum.i am from india.i have acne scars on my face since 1yr.i was very tense about those scars.please suggest me any cream.i hav gone through so many dermatologist they suggest me for laser treatment bt i dont want to go through that procedure..

Female | 21

Worrying over acne scars is common, yet solutions exist. Scars form when skin sustains damage during breakouts. Creams with retinoids or vitamin C can gradually fade scars. Consistency is key; visible improvement takes weeks. Clean, moisturized skin is crucial too. Before starting any new treatment, consulting a dermatologist is wise to ensure the safety of your complexion.

Hi I am 38 years and I am from Jaipur. I have been facing a gradual hair thinning problem since my early 30's. I have researched about Hair transplant, But I'm a little confused about the after looks. Does it look natural or will people understand that I am wearing something artificial?

No, hair transplant never looks artificial because the hair angle is placed as the natural hairline.
