Bacterial infection and ringworm are two different things. Ringworm is fungal infection that presents rings generally over the areas where there is more sweating like thigh area, under the breast or armpit area and that is to be treated by anti-fungal medication for long time like 1-2 months. Bacterial infection is the one which is present with the puss and boils and has to be treated with antibiotics. Fungal infection on the scalp is very uncommon in adults and its only a problem of pre-school children. Proper diagnosis is required for the treatment to work. Consult a dermatologist for the same.

Aoa , I'm 22 years old and I'm having hair fall, I have a lot of pain in my head, always on top side, any good medicine or shampoo.

Male | 22

The hair loss can be because of stress, hormonal imbalances, inadequate nutrition levels, or medical issues. The importance of consulting a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment cannot be overstressed. Without being given a proper diagnosis, the application of over-the-counter shampoos and medications will only make it worse.

In the past 5 months I have been suffering from fever and cold along with a lot of weakness and My hair was very thick before and now it has fallen out a lot.

Female | 18

You're experiencing a combination of symptoms that could be related to an underlying health issue. Persistent fever, cold, weakness, and significant hair loss over several months can sometimes point to problems like nutritional deficiencies, thyroid issues, or even an infection. It's important to consult a general physician or an endocrinologist who can evaluate your symptoms properly and suggest the right treatment.

I(22f) lost 20 kgs in 2022 and since then I am suffering from hairfall. I got blood test 2 months ago and I was deficient in vit d(9.44mg/ml) and iron(30). Doctor prescribed 60000iu shots twice weekly and a tablet for daily with additional 1000iu. Also taking iron supplement. For 2-3 weeks ny hair fall came down to 10-15 strans but slowly started increasing and now at 2 months it's more than 100 per day. Before starting supplements it was 40-50. What happened?

Female | 22

The pills might be starting to work. Not having enough vitamin D or iron can make your hair fall out. You may not get all the nutrients you need from them for a while, even if you’re beginning to see things get better. These are some things that need time. Remember not to be anxious and impatient since new hair will only grow slowly. In case everything remains unchanged, contact a dermatologist for more instructions.

Hello sir/mam .i having pimple near anal opening from 1yewr not sure its is fisture or pimple.from last month it is hurting and feel like burning after I pass stool..while passing stool thr is no pain or feel like anything.

Male | 31

The condition you described seems to have a perianal abscess inflamed, thus causing the pus pocket to be painful and it may also burn. In addition, it might be an infection that happens when a blocked gland releases a fluid. Make an appointment with a dermatologist who will lead you to a proper treatment.

Which treatment suits on me, as i m suffering from acne pigmentation nd dullness?

Female | 27

Dealing with acne, dark spots, and dullness can be frustrating. Acne causes pimples. Pigmentation leads to unwanted dark patches. Dullness makes your complexion appear tired, lacking radiance. To tackle these woes, consider skincare with retinol, niacinamide, and vitamin C. Shielding your skin from sun damage by applying sunscreen regularly is crucial. Cleanse your face diligently, resist picking at blemishes, and stay hydrated by drinking ample water.
