You could be suffering from a disorder known as eczema. Eczema is a skin condition that can give you itchy rashes on your arms. It can be set off by different things such as allergies, irritants, or stress. As for your symptoms, you can use a cream prescribed by a doctor, keep your skin hydrated, and avoid scratching to make it better. If your situation worsens, see a dermatologist for more options.

I got a bump on my finger, it's pretty large, redish in colour, round and it has a small black point in the middle, it doesn't hurt or itch but it looks concerning. I don't know exactly when it got there but it's been less than 2 months. When i asked Mr Google, it obviously showed me cancer-related links like always haha, i don't usually take Google seriously but the thing is cancer runs in my family and my grandma is a triple-cancer survivor, including skin cancer, i'm also a smoker and i enjoy tanning during the summer, which adds to the problem. Should i be concerned or is it just medical anxiety and it's only a normal bump?
Female | 19
The bump on your finger could be a common situation called a wart. Warts are mostly painless and can sometimes have a black dot in the center. They are due to a virus which is not usually dangerous. But, if you are in doubt, the best thing is to get a dermatologist to check it.

Which treatment is best for vitiligo in children below 5 years, homeopathy, ayurveda, or allopathy? What treatment is given to kids for focal vitiligo above lips?
Male | 3
The best treatment for vitiligo in children below 5 years old would depend on the severity of the condition. Generally, topical corticosteroids are the most commonly used treatment for vitiligo in children, and they are used in combination with other treatments like phototherapy, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and systemic immunomodulators. For focal vitiligo above the lips, the treatment of choice is usually topical corticosteroids. Additionally, topical immunomodulators and phototherapy can be used in combination with topical corticosteroids to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. Homeopathy, ayurveda, and other alternative treatments can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, but should be discussed with a doctor before starting.

I am 23 year old. sometimes before I was suffering from HSP , now I recovered from disease but some spot are appread on my legs , so please help me out with any cream or ointment for removing the spot?
Female | 23
It may be that the points are healing or that the disease left some changes behind in the skin. One thing that could help you get rid of those spots is to apply a nice hydrating cream or lotion with vitamin E or aloe vera. Note that outbreaks can take a little longer to fade away, yet hydrating your skin can help a bit.

If there is redness at the side of urethra but there is no symptoms etc. Only redness under upper lips means uretra.its redness is dangerous !??And why is there redness if I don't have any pain or irritation etc. And is this redness dangerous?
Female | 22
High redness, in the absence of any pain or irritation, is not to be seen near the urethra normally. These reddish spots may indicate inflammation or infection even if you do not have any other symptoms. Listening to your body's signals is vital. It is helpful to drink water and to keep it clean. You should visit a dermatologist if the redness continues or if you get other symptoms.

Hi,my self Bhargav, Recently I observed small holes under the pennies, when I press that holes, white and black substance coming outside, initially i thought like these are formed by hair grow.
Male | 29
You may have folliculitis, which is a common skin condition. This occurs when the hair follicles become infected with bacteria. The holes you can see are where the infection is coming out; this may contain pus hence the white and black things you mentioned. Clean the affected area regularly and use warm compresses too. However, if it’s too uncomfortable for you then visit a dermatologist.

My daughter is 14 years old and was having a corn on her toe. We initially left it and did nothing , later we got a corn tape and changed it every 3-4 days within 2 weeks. Now the area has become white so we have not put any corn tape and left it open.
Female | 14
Corns, which are caused by the skin undergoing pressure or friction continuously, are the result of this. The white area may be a sign of skin healing. Try not to use the corn tape for the time being. Keep the area clean and dry. Wearing shoes that are a lot more comfortable should help to ease the pressure. If it doesn't improve, visit a foot specialist for further advice.

I am 17 year old boy. I am suffering from heavy hair fall. please help me I have long hair
Male | 17
Hair loss is a normal part of aging, but it might need attention if you notice an excessive amount for your age. Significant hair fall can be due to stress, poor nutrition, or an untreated wound. To address this, focus on your diet, manage stress, and choose gentle hair products. Avoid tight hairstyles that pull on your hair. If the condition doesn't improve, consider consulting a dermatologist.

Female | 20
There are many reasons why your skin may appear older than you’d like. Some of the most common include excessive sun exposure, smoking, and dehydration. Additionally, stress and genetics can also contribute to this issue. To improve the condition of your skin, it is advisable to apply sunscreen every day, drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and quit smoking. Using mild cleansers along with moisturizers can help maintain a healthy complexion.

Female | 32
You might still be experiencing symptoms from shingles. Even after taking medicine, the pain and burning can persist for some time. It's important to visit a dermatologist to check the condition and ensure it’s healing properly. If you’re feeling shortness of breath, it’s also a good idea to see a pulmonologist to rule out any other issues.

My mother has a skin disease. I want to know what type of disease it is and what is its treatment.
Female | 48
It sounds as if your mother has eczema. Eczema can make the skin itchy, red, and inflamed. It can be due to dry skin, irritants, or allergies. To alleviate eczema, moisturize the skin, avoid strong soaps, and use the prescribed creams from the dermatologist. In some cases, the doctor may suggest antihistamines to mitigate itching.

I am 18 years old l have used many medicines for acne but haven't changed what should I do?
Female | 18
Acne occurs when the pores get clogged with oil and bacteria. Having a bunch of medications and no benefits can be a terrible thing. It is crucial to keep in mind that everyone's skin is unique. Often an easy skincare program using mild products is the right route. Eliminate harsh chemicals and see a dermatologist to provide you with individualized recommendations.

Male | 23
You may have developed a skin reaction to the post-exposure prophylaxis tablets. Reddish areas on the glans of the penis may indicate irritation or an allergy. To assist with this, you can use a mild, fragrance-free moisturizer or a hydrocortisone cream to soothe the skin. If the patches do not go away and worsen, consult a dermatologist.

I noticed a small circle which is purpley black on my penis around the outside and more purple in the middle do I need to be worried
Male | 15
The purple-black circle around your penis area could be a bruise. Or, it might be a blood vessel you can see now. Maybe it happened from an injury. Or, some friction during physical activities caused it. If it doesn't hurt or itch, it will probably heal by itself. But, if you see any changes or feel discomfort, talk to a dermatologist. They can check it out and make sure everything's okay.
