You may have a skin infection on your penis cap, which can occur after shaving. The bumps which get transformed to open wounds and are spreading could be a sign of a bacterial or fungal infection. Even though it's not itching, it's still important to get it checked by a dermatologist. The medicine might be antibiotics or antifungal cream for it to be better. Make sure you keep the area of the body clean and dry to avoid the further spreading of the infection.

Male | 24
It seems like you have a case of redness on the head of your penis which neuroses. But on a bright note, your tests for HIV, HCV, VDRL, and RPR were all negative which is a good thing. The causes of redness may be irritation, fungal infection, or allergy. Seek an opinion from a dermatologist. Your symptoms can vary and they can recommend further tests or treatments for correct diagnosis and proper management.

I have hair loss due to ‘Alopecia’ so doctor told to apply panderm cream is that ok
Male | 28
Alopecia causes hair loss. Panderm cream is not recommended because it contains steroids and can have side effects on the skin, potentially making the condition worse. It's better to see a dermatologist for proper treatment options like topical medications or injections.

Male | 29
A red blister on the penis shaft with pain could mean genital herpes. This skin condition often has painful blisters. It's usually caused by a virus. To find out for sure, you should see a dermatologist. They can look at it and give treatment. Keeping clean, not having sex, and reducing stress may help.

Have a toe infection from biting my nail, tried soaking it in warm water for a few minutes and no soloution. It turned from darkish red to pink in about a week. What should u do to remove the infection
Male | 14
Infections can occur when germs enter the skin through a cut or bite. Symptoms that your toe is infected include redness, swelling, warmth, and pain. To treat it, try soaking your toe in warm soapy water for 15 minutes 3-4 times a day. This will help clean the area and reduce swelling. Keep your toe clean and dry, and don’t squeeze or pop it. If it doesn’t improve, see a dermatologist for further treatment.

Hello Doctor, Myself Anjali. I am 25.5 yrs old. I am having severe itching in my private part whenever i go outside in sun.
Female | Anjali
It seems you are facing a heat rash which is a common condition. Your skin gets too hot due to the sun and it can make your skin red, itchy, and throbbing. After a time, you should avoid wearing clothes that are too tight. Make sure to wear cool, loose-fitting clothes. Moreover, always keep below clean and dry when there is a chance of heat rash. Calamine lotion can also be a good option to use to relieve the burning skin. Drinking enough water is important.

Red flags for moles include changes in size, shape, or color, as well as itching or bleeding. If you notice any of these signs, it's important to see a dermatologist right away.

Me and my girlfriend had sex yesterday and now she feels itching during urination. She has a very dry skin.
Female | 24
It seems that your partner has got a urinary tract infection. Sometimes this happens after having sex. It can give a feeling of itchiness and uneasiness when peeing. The problem can even be worse if the skin is dry. Ensure she takes a lot of water to flush out the bacteria. Wearing loose cotton underwear and using a warm pad can help reduce the discomfort. She should visit a urologist.

Small Nodule on eyebrow
Male | 3 month
A tiny bump near your eyebrow is probably a cyst or a skin tag, which are common and not usually a concern. They can form from a clogged oil gland or a blocked hair follicle. If it’s not bothering you, it’s okay to leave it alone. However, if it grows bigger, changes color, or starts hurting, it’s best to have it checked out.

i have white patches all over body and between fingers my skin looks like old people like snake skin i apply oil to qll parts daily to hide patches how to rectify this
Male | 32
Epidermal psoriasis can make your skin look like a puzzle with indented edges. It is not always the case that you get white spots between your fingers. Covering flares with oil is not a good idea because it doesn't address the trigger. To address this problem, you should visit a dermatologist who can guide you on creams, ointments, or other prescribed medications for psoriasis. Washing your skin and reducing the number of patches can be helpful. Using milder soaps and applying moisturizers will also help.

Can hair loss at crown be treated effectively?
Male | 29
Hair loss in the crown area, often called a bald spot, is usually hereditary. Yes, it runs in the family! Other factors like stress, poor diet, and certain illnesses can also contribute. DHT blockers like Propecia (finasteride) and minoxidil (Rogaine) may slow hair loss in men. It's always best to consult a dermatologist for advice.

Sore arm after tick bite removal
Male | 29
If you develop arm pain after the removal of a tick bite, there is a chance that mouth parts are left in your skin. This may lead to an inflammatory response and pain. You should get evaluated by a dermatologist or an infectious disease specialist.

Hi, I've recently noticed I some wart like lumps have appeared near in and around my eye I had this issue last year which I removed them myself I'm just slightly concerned as to why they have come back?
Male | 36
Wart-like bumps near your eye that recur might result from HPV. This virus causes warts on skin. Symptoms are small, raised, maybe itchy or painful bumps. For treatment, see a dermatologist. They'll properly remove using freezing or medication. Treating prevents warts from spreading and worsening.

Sir Maine apne biwi ka hair leser razor use Kiya hai hath pe to usse mera thoda blud nikla he to usse muje koi said effect to nhi hoga na

A hair razor is not suggested on the skin as it can lead to cuts and bleeding. Despite the low rate of side effects, it is better to seek a generalist or a dermatologist if the wound is deep or has any signs of infection.

Vitiligo is a medical issue leading to pale spots on skin areas. It happens when your body attacks its own cells. Or vitiligo may stem from inherited genes. There's no permanent fix, but creams and light treatment can help blend skin tones better. Sun protection is key to stop color changes. You can also visit a dermatologist for treatment.

Hi. I've a question regarding my niece's skin problem. She is a 7-years old. She has developed red patches of skin on her cheek, chin and around nose. The affected area of her cheek is very dry. I brought her to a doctor who prescribed two creams, mezoderm(betamethasone) and gentamicin-akos which made things far worse. Then at the pharmacy I was advised to use ftorokart(also a cream with triamcinolone) for my niece's face. After a few uses of the cream, I've seen some noticeable improvement in her skin condition since she started to use it. It took the redness out of her nose. But she still has rash and blisters on her face. I took photos of her face in case it might be helpful for you to identify the reason for her skin condition. Here are the photos of hers: https://ibb.co/q9t8bSL https://ibb.co/Q8rqcr1 https://ibb.co/JppswZw https://ibb.co/Hd9LPkZ Would you mind helping us to identify what caused this skin condition?

According to the symptoms and signs described, it appears to be a case of atopic dermatitis which is common among children of the mentioned age. It is a condition where the skin barrier is disturbed and is extremely sensitive to external environmental triggers like cold and dry weather, dust etc. It presents as red dry itchy patches on cheeks, hands and legs sometimes whole body. The above mentioned creams contain topical corticosteroids which are to be used with a great caution under the supervision of Dermatologist. Good barrier repairing creams including emollients with squalene, ceramides etc can help reviving the skin barrier. Steroid sparing drugs can be prescribed to manage the rash. Please consult a qualified Dermatologist and do not use topical corticosteroids without doctor’s advice as it may cause many adverse effects.

Female | 33
Yes, you can undergo a Keratin hair treatment to help reduce hair fall. Keratin treatments are designed to help strengthen and nourish the hair and reduce breakage. However, it is important to keep in mind that Keratin treatments should not be used as a primary treatment for hair loss. You should speak to your doctor to determine the underlying cause of your hair loss and the best treatment options for you.
