I am 28 yo female and recently got sclerotherapy done on both legs (last Wednesday so it has been over a week). My veins have gotten worse, they are purple and more visible and quite sensitive to the touch. There is no bruising. My dermatologist said I may have had an allergic reaction to the treatment and suggested I get antihistamines. Will the veins subside?

Answered on 23rd May '24
Veins do appear more visible naturally after sclerotherapy treatment, but they usually improve over time as the body reabsorbs the treated veins. Its best to discuss your concerns with your dermatologist and follow the recommended treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting or standing and to wear compression stockings as recommended to decrease swelling and heal faster.

My face is tanned to 2 shades dark color suddenly and I have 4-5 moles developed on my face and neck.Kindly suggest me medicines.
Female | 38
Sun tan is quite common because of unprotected sun exposure. This is because of excess production of melanin or excess accumulation of melanin in the skin layers in response to UV rays. Moles are formed due to arrest of melanin producing cells in skin layers where they continue to produce melanin which collects to form flat or raised moles. Tan can be treated by using certain depigmenting creams which contain glycolic acid, kojicacid, alpha arbutin etc which have to be used under the supervision of a qualified dermatologist. Procedural treatment like chemical peels and laser toning with QS yag laser can help. Most important is religious use of sunscreens to prevent further tan and improvement of skin. Moles can be treated by radiofrequency ablation, punch excision or Q-switched yag laser. So please consult a qualified Dermatologist.

I have a cyst on armpit its inside and shows some movebility its been for 2 years and i have no pain or anything even i cant feel it there but now i have 2 more same cyst on my arm pit what is it doctor
Male | 19
According to the information you provided, you may have cysts in your armpit part. A cyst is like a small pocket filled with water and can be quite common. Cysts can happen when skin cells are blocked and then form a pile under the skin. They can also be seen in groups. You don't have any pain or problems which makes it unlikely that it is something serious. But, it is always a good idea to let a dermatologist look at them.

Severe scabies can, in fact, be very difficult, and it is essential that it is handled properly. These small, itchy red bumps indicate an infestation by mites, which can spread if not treated effectively. It’s critical to make sure that everyone in the household is treated simultaneously to avoid reinfestation. I suggest using a prescribed topical treatment that contains permethrin or ivermectin since these are effective treatments. Keep up a high level of cleanliness; wash clothing and bedding in hot water frequently, and keep the air circulating. For personalized advice, consult a dermatologist who can also confirm the diagnosis for the right treatment.

I have a sore on top of my head at first it started out like a pimple but now it is has spread and is it Hy and sore what could it be
Male | 46
These happen when bacteria get into hair follicles or oil glands, causing infection. To treat it, you should use warm compresses on the area. This helps drain it and heal it. Don't pick or squeeze the sore! That could make the infection worse. Keep the area clean by washing it gently. You can also try over-the-counter antibiotic ointments to aid healing. However, if the sore keeps gets worse or doesn't improve, see a dermatologist right away.

Pemphigus autoimmune disease
Female | 65
Pemphigus is an autoimmune disorder in which the safe skin cells are unintentionally assaulted by the immune system, resulting in unbearable blisters and sores. Symptoms may consist of sensitivity, raw spots as well as peeling skin. Treatment generally involves the administration of anti-inflammatory drugs and immune system-suppressing agents like corticosteroids. Adhering to a proper skincare regime is also crucial. It is also important to consult a dermatologist for further opinions.

Your son may have accidentally hit you in the face since there is a bruise and some swelling under your eyes. Normally such injuries heal over time so don’t worry too much. If it’s really bad then apply something cold to help with the inflammation as well as taking some over the counter painkillers if needed. If things do not improve within 48 hours please seek medical advice immediately.

Dark inner thighs solution
Female | 27
The inner thighs may darken due to many reasons. Rubbing thighs together, hormonal changes, excessive sweat, and being overweight can cause it. To lighten dark areas, keep them clean and dry. Wear loose clothes. Use skin-lightening creams. If darkness remains or worsens, see a dermatologist for advice.

You have problem of hirsuitism (unwanted facial hair). This could be due to hormonal imbalance, or repeated use of razor on the skin or the side effects of some medication. Best solution for this is laser hair removal treatment.

I have white dots on my testicles
Male | 25
Your testis might have some white spots, which probably are Fordyce spots. The latter is a harmless issue and common. They are small, raised, and painless. Oil glands that secrete too much oil end up clogging pores, and thus, we see these dots on the skin. Emotional tension or fluctuations in the levels of hormones could cause them. Usually, Fordyce spots do not require any treatment.

A swollen lower lip lasting months isn't normal. It's wise you seek advice. Swelling could result from various causes: allergies, infections, or harmless growths, making eating and talking difficult. To receive proper treatment, consult a dermatologist. They'll identify the precise cause, providing suitable care. Swelling could stem from an allergic reaction to something you ate or used. Or it could indicate an infection requiring antibiotics.

If the marks are just pigmentation-like, they will be corrected in due course of time with the combination of steroids and antibiotics in tropical form, and if it is a depression or scar that has to be addressed with lasers.
