It's first essential to understand the possible causes behind dark lips:

  • Hyperpigmentation, which is characterized by excess melanin, could be the culprit. Lip hyperpigmentation in turn may be caused by following factors:
  1. excessive sun exposure,
  2. dehydration,
  3. tobacco,
  4. allergic reaction to toothpaste, lipstick, etc.
  5. excess of caffeine,
  6. Repetitive licking of lips,
  7. alcohol.
    Using sunscreen, avoiding tobacco & alcohol, limiting caffeine intake, drinking more water, and switching up brands on certain lip/dental products may help.
  • chemotherapy,
  • anemia,
  • vitamin deficiency,
  • use of excess fluoride.
    For this you should get medical tests conducted, and then either get treated for vitamin deficiency & anemia, or limit fluoride usage, or for chemotherapy you can seek dermatologist guidance with the approval of doctor managing your chemo.


If changing certain lifestyle habits don't work in your favor, then you can approach dermatologist, where upon personal consultation they will provide treatments such as:

  • topical medications,
  • chemical peel,
  • laser,
  • microdermabrasion,
  • or lip tattooing as the final resort.

I suggest you to talk to your doctor about your mother's condition. Based on your mother's condition, he may suggest some different medicine or treatment. And for blisters, making certain lifestyle changes like eating healthy food, taking rest and avoiding certain triggers can prove helpful.

I am 20 year old female . I have a painless underarm lump that has been there for a year now. What should I do

Female | 20

If you have a painless lump in your armpit that doesn’t go away for about a year, it should be checked out. It might just be a harmless cyst, a swollen lymph node, or a kind of fat called lipoma. But we also need to make sure nothing more serious is going on. My advice is to see a healthcare provider who can take a look at it.

Badan me dard or chehre Ka colour black

Female | 25

Body pain and a black face could signal ane­mia - not enough red blood cells. Ane­mia makes you tired, pale, and achy. Eating iron-rich foods he­lps: spinach, beans, meat. Drink lots of water, re­st well too. See a doctor if it doe­sn't improve.

I am arpita im 17 years old my skin suffering from dullness nd even skin tone nd not even glow nd hydration

Female | 17

It seems like your skin is not glowing and lacks moisture. These issues may be due to other reasons such as lack of proper hydration, non-use of sunscreen, or dry location. One of the best things to do in this respect is to ensure that your skin takes in enough water, use a good moisturizer that is not too harsh, and eat a healthy diet by including fruits and vegetables. Use sunblock when outdoors to keep your skin protected from the sun. These actions may improve your skin and consequently, you may have radiant skin.

You may have­ sunken eye socke­ts and dark circles. Many things can cause this. It could be due­ to your genes, not enough sle­ep, or not drinking enough water. To make­ it better, be sure­ to get plenty of rest and drink lots of wate­r. You can also try using an eye cream to add moisture­ to the area. Taking care of your ove­rall health and getting good slee­p can help your eye­s look better.

I completed ERIG+ IDRV in 2022 for cat scratch. And again taken D0 And D3 in november 2023. I had taken again the vaccine for dog scratch in D0 and D3 in May 6th and May 9 th 2024. But today my cat again scratch me and blood came.should I take the vaccine again?

Female | 21

You should be protected since you've had vaccines for both cat and dog scratches. However, if you're still concerned, it's a good idea to consult your doctor to be safe. In addition to the color and swelling, you might also notice the area around the scratch becoming warmer, which could indicate an infection.

Treatment for razor bumps in bikini area, have used ketoconazole cream for it but still no result would love the assistance of a dermatologist here to help out with the treatment

Female | 21

Razor bumps in the bikini area are a common cause for concern. Injuries to follicles that occur through shaving are usually behind these bumps. They are typically red, itchy, and with small bumps. When ketoconazole cream does not help, another alternative is the use of a mild hydrocortisone cream that can help to control inflammation. Put on some lotion to the part all the time so it stays moisturized.
