Marks left by cystic acne can be permanent in nature and may not fade even if you use over-the-counter drugs.
So using prescription medicines as suggested by doctor will help.

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.

Hi I've been having some dark spots like blackheads on both foot around my ankle and would like to know what it is
Female | 27
Ankle spots could result from calluses or corns. These develop from repeated friction, say rough footwear. While mostly harmless, they can feel uncomfortable. Maintaining clean, moisturized feet helps. Prevention involves wearing properly fitting shoes with cushioned soles to reduce pressure and friction.

Psoriasis can be a bit challenging to treat but various treatments like medications, laser treatments, alternative treatments like homeopathy etc., avoiding triggers that worsen your psoriasis symptoms can prove useful. I suggest talking to your doctor for proper examination of your condition which will help in deciding which is the best treatment for your condition.

Hair fall and Eyebrow fall since 1.5 years. After starting this problem 2 month later I consult Dr. Then my treatment started.After starting treatment I feel good because my hair fall and Eyebrow control and get recover.From 3 months It started again.I take medicine continuously till my treatment starting.What should I do now?
Male | 19
It seems you started to feel better for a while but then relapsed. This can happen, but it's important to manage it well. Hair and eyebrow loss can be caused by stress, poor diet, hormonal changes, or excessive body fat. Visit a dermatologist to review your current situation and possibly adjust your treatment plan.

Sir I had fungal infection so I used derobin gel and now my skin is black though my fungal infection gone...but there is black pigmentation on my skin on stomach how to remove that
Male | 24
You may have hyperpigmentation after inflammation, which is a consequence of skin inflammation such as a fungal infection. The dark color of the skin is the result of the skin's recovery mechanism. A gentle exfoliating scrub or a vitamin C-rich skin-brightening cream are examples, you can fade the pigmentation by trying them. It is important to use an SPF product as UV rays can aggravate the pigmentation.

I am a 20 year old female that had a cold sore on my lip a few months ago. The actual scab is gone, but there is still a sharp pain in that spot when I touched it. Is it still contagious and how can I stop it? I’ve been putting Abreva and Carmex on the spot that hurts but nothing seems to help. Thank you
Female | 20
The nerve near your previous sore could be causing your current pain. Cold sores are contagious until fully healed, but once the scab is gone, the risk is usually over. You can apply a cold compress or take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Avoid touching or picking at the sore to prevent irritation. If the pain persists or worsens, it's best to consult a dermatologist.

Diabetes may be making an infection or condition worse. Here's what to do: keep the area clean. Put some antibacterial cream on. Cover with a bandage too. But most importantly, go see a dermatologist soon. They'll check it and give the right treatment.

I am a vegetarian and also anemic i have brown spots all over my back chest and neck i saw somewhere it said it’s because of low vitamin D but I want to make sure its not anything more serious
Female | 22
While low vitamin D or anemia might contribute to skin issues, other causes like sun exposure and skin conditions should be considered. A dermatologist can perform a thorough evaluation to identify the exact cause of the brown spots and provide appropriate treatment. In the meantime, maintain a balanced diet and protect your skin from excessive sun exposure.

Itching in my penis from 3,4 days
Male | 25
Having an itchy penis for several days is an unpleasant experience. Reasons behind the itch include infections, irritants like soaps and detergents, or allergies. Look for other signs: redness, odd discharge. Keeping the area neat, and dry may relieve discomfort. But if itching worsens or lingers, visit a dermatologist to identify and treat the cause properly.

I am facing acne problem on my face as well as they are leaving marks on face.
Female | 28
Acne is a skin condition characterized by red pimples or “zits”. These occur when hair follicles are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. The swollen and tender pimples may or may not have pus. Mild washing of the face with a gentle cleanser is recommended. Over-the-counter acne treatment creams or gels can help address the issue, too. A dermatologist can offer more advice on dealing with such skin problems if they are a source of concern for you.

Male | 19
You have been suffering from allergic rhinitis (hay fever) for the last two years. Symptoms like sneezing, running nose, and congestion can be very annoying. Usually, the things that trigger this allergic reaction are pollen, dust mites, or pet dander. Antihistamines like Montas-L can help you by blocking the allergy response and thus, reducing the symptoms. The regular intake of your medication is necessary for the proper control of your allergy.

which doctors need to consult if having redness on front skin or can say Balanites case, Dermatologist/Urologist/Analogist/Sexologist
Male | 60
If you see redness in the front skin area then it might be a condition called balanitis. Symptoms of balanitis are the redness, swelling, and discomfort. Some of the reasons may be: using poor hygiene, infections, or skin conditions. Keeping the area clean, avoiding skin irritants including strong soaps, and wearing comfortable clothes can all help. If the symptoms do not go away or worsen, see a urologist or a dermatologist for the correct treatment.

Lesions on pennis , like cuts and skin was ruptured
Male | 24
You might get them from rough handling during sex, infections, or any skin conditions. People get cuts on their penises in many ways. To heal them, you need to wash the area and protect it from getting irritated more. You can also use a plain skin cream without perfume in it. If it does not get better or it gets worse, see a dermatologist right away.

I have skin problem,I had pimples on face and chest for long time
Female | 22
Getting pimples on your face and chest is quite annoying. Those red bumps often occur when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. This happens if your body produces excessive oil. Wash your skin gently using a mild soap to keep it clean. You could try using over-the-counter acne products with benzoyl peroxide to help clear up the pimples. If the issue persists, visit a dermatologist.

Male | 16
These lumps are usually harmless cysts or lymph nodes that are a part of your immune system. These things are usually soft and painless, indicating that there is no danger. If it bothers you or has changed in any way, it is recommended to see a dermatologist for more tests.
