Hi Doctor, I am suffering from skin itching and rashes in my groin and other private areas from a very long time. Especially in summer the itching intensifies and it's unbearable. Is there a permenante solution or treatment for this in ayurveda. Please help. I can consult with you in video conferencing.
Male | 46
Itchy, rashy skin down there is no fun, especially in the heat. This could be jock itch - a fungal thing. Nature's remedies like neem, turmeric, and aloe may help. Stay away from tight clothes. Keep the area dry and airy. Eat healthy foods.

I m 35 years old male. Last three days I got a sudden bump while rubbing my penis. The bump is not going away and I am also taking antibiotic tablet still no improvement
Male | 35
Antibiotics will not necessarily clear up every problem, as sometimes it is not even a bacterial issue. Be sure to watch for other symptoms like pain and changes in the look. Setting a meeting with a dermatologist is good advice and he will check you out thoroughly and suggest the best treatment. It is a must to have professional support for the proper identification and treatment.

Male | 12
Initially, please consult with your parents. They may advise you some natural remedies or take you to a dermatologist. The dermatologist may suggest the best treatment for you depending on your age and skin type. Some natural remedies you can try for managing your pigmentation include applying a mask or use of a gentle exfoliator.

I got many cysts on penis and surrounding again and again. whenever I get Softin tablet it disappears ,but whenever I stop to take Softin, It will appear again.
Male | 29
Sometimes, little fluid-filled bumps form on the penis. These are called penile cysts. Blocked glands may cause them. Softin tablets ease swelling, so stopping them lets cysts return. Don't ignore persistent cysts—a dermatologist should examine them. Proper treatment is crucial. They'll check for any underlying condition triggering these recurring bumps. Cysts aren't dangerous, but proper care matters.

I have to use cleanser water and which one is better for me I don’t know I’m sensitive skin
Female | 17
It is best to consult a dermatologist who can recommend a suitable cleanser for your skin type. A gentle, fragrance-free cleanser that is designed for sensitive skin, such as Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser, could be a good option. However, it is always best to seek professional advice to ensure the best care for your skin. They may ask other health conditions like regarding your gut health, other issues etc and accordingly prescribe.

Sore arm after tick bite removal

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.

I have rashes on my body. It come and goes. It has been like this for 4months. this week I did a blood test and I want explanations to the results.
Male | 41
The results of your blood test suggest that you may have an allergy or an autoimmune disease. These can be the reason why rashes appear and disappear. It is essential to work out the cause of these rashes and treat them by staying away from the allergen or taking medication as prescribed by your doctor. Remember to go back to a dermatologist for more tests and treatment.

Having allergy since few days skin rashes only
Male | 17
Allergic reactions bring skin discomfort - rashes, redness, itchiness, bumps. Foods, plants, pet dander often trigger them. Avoid allergy sources. Cool compresses soothe rashes. Antihistamines help, too. But if symptoms persist, visit a dermatologist.

Mera beta 6 months k h...usse bht mosquitoes cutne k baad redness Kam hone k baad skin p black black mark ho jata h .....sir black spot kaise normal hoga????
Male | 6 month
Itchy skin can cause these marks when scratched frequently irritating the area. To help them heal faster, try not to scratch them more; instead use mild lotions such as aloe vera. Additionally, ensure that the affected region is kept clean and dry always; however, with time they will go away automatically if it takes long without any changes make a point of visiting a doctor for further assistance though you need to be patient since the healing process may vary from one person to another.

Female | 25
The symptoms you are describing may be caused by genital warts which are due to HPV (human papillomavirus). A doctor can get rid of these warts by prescribing medications or doing minor procedures. Safer ways would be not to touch them and instead stick to safe sex with condoms. It's crucial to visit a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and therapy.

Female | 18
It's crucial to have doctors check moles, even anus moles. Changing the size, shape, color, itchiness, or bleeding warrants medical care. Genetics, sunlight, and hormones may cause anal moles. Consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and proper treatment to ensure health.

Various factors, including poor hygiene, skin diseases like eczema, or even infections like yeast can cause itching. Keep the area clean and dry, wear loose cotton underwear, and do not scratch.

My face turns red There are small pimples on the face and now there are dark spots on the skin, tell me the solution to reduce it
Male | 29
To treat acne and its related dark spots, wash your face twice daily using a mild soap; apply an oil-free moisturizer and avoid pricking or scratching at any pimples. Over-the-counter products containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid would be effective too if used consistently for about twelve weeks. If none of these measures work for you, you can see a dermatologist who will give you more instructions based on your specific needs.

I am a 19 year old female. I have had a red patch on the inside of my upper lip for around 4 and a half weeks that hasn’t gone. Sometimes it’s painful, and it regularly tastes metallic. I’m not sure what this is or how to treat it
Female | 19
You may be dealing with a condition called oral lichen planus, which can cause painful red spots in your mouth that taste metallic. Don't worry, it's not contagious. The exact cause is unknown, it might be linked to the immune system. To ease the discomfort, avoid hot or sour foods and use mild mouth rinses while keeping your mouth clean. If these tips don't help or your symptoms worsen, make an appointment with a dermatologist to get a proper diagnosis and discuss further treatment options.

I AM 29 YEAR MALE MY NOSE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDE MOLE WHAT SHOULD I DO
Male | 29
Moles on your nose seem ordinary and usually don't cause harm. Their appearance could stem from genes or being exposed to sunlight. If these moles maintain their size, shape, and color, there's typically no reason for concern. Still, monitoring them closely and using sunscreen to shield your skin remains advisable. If any changes occur, consult a dermatologist.
