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.

The most common reasons behind this are allergies and skin irritation. You should pay attention to the products you use because they should not contain any harmful ingredients. To fight against this problem, moisturize well and avoid using soaps and chemicals that are too harsh.

I am 38 year old male. A few weeks back I noticed a bald patch on my head.
Male | 38
You may be suffering from alopecia areata. This is a condition where the immune system attacks the hair follicles leading to hair loss. It is usually sudden and appears as a bald patch on the scalp. While sometimes hair might grow back on its own, it can also be intermittent. For advice on possible treatments like steroid injections or creams, it would be best seen by a dermatologist.

Please tell me what I am missing and doing wrong. Contact no. 7631373172
Male | 23
It sounds like you are having a very annoying itch and feeling uncomfortable not only due to the skin irritation but also due to the secondary infections or probably the reinfestation, besides. Maybe eradication of scabies is not always that easy. Be sure to launder all the clothes, and bed linens on a hot wash to kill the remaining mites. Also, think of another treatment application one week after the first one for a better cure. If any symptoms are still there consult a dermatologist for personalized advice.

Male | 25
There may be an issue called balanitis affecting your penis' head. It involves inflammation. The black spot, burning feeling, and tenderness indicate irritation or infection. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness is crucial. Don't use harsh soaps or lotions on the area. If symptoms continue or worsen, visit a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Female | 21
These problems can be attributed to hormonal imbalances or skin conditions. Good skincare practices, like using and maintaining a moisturizing product, will help to address the problem. You can consider hair removal methods as well. Eating a balanced diet and drinking water can also improve skin health. If these methods do not give positive results, then it is advisable to consult a dermatologist.

looking inflammation or can say Balanitis infection on front skin. Please suggest which doctor to consult Dermatologist/Urologist/Analogists or sexologist.
Male | 60
Balanitis is an inflammation of the skin located at the front end of the penis. If addressing the issue, professionals, such as dermatologists and urologists, who are experts in skin and urinary system disease may be consulted. The issue of balanitis springs from a lack of cleanliness, some skin conditions, or various infections. Recommendations from doctors include cleaning the area, prescription of medicated creams, or, if there is an infection, they might need to take antibiotics.

I'm 22 years old male. I have some fungal infections in my hip and my leg in almost 18+ months. I have some skin care creams but not cure
Male | 22
A persistent fungal infection is quite often the cause of discomfort, it may be accompanied by itching, redness and flaking of the skin. Among the very common causes are exposure to moisture, hot conditions, and touching surfaces that are infected with fungus. Sometimes, it is not enough to merely find an over-the-counter cream that gives you temporary relief; it can well be improved, but sometimes a total solution is still impossible. My choice is the use of complex treatments that may be also over the counter, for example, antifungal drugs given on doctor’s recommendation along with making sure cleanliness and the affected areas are kept dry. A visit to the doctor often is the time for specific ways of dealing with the situation and also for quicker management of the condition. You are not alone in it. If you are still hesitating, remember that professional help can actually solve your problems very brilliantly.

Hi good morning I have skin allergy plz can you tell me med for this
Male | 38
For skin allergies, I advise the individual to see a dermatologist who could pinpoint his/her exact condition and give a relevant treatment. Non-prescription antihistamines can help with mild symptoms, but a person who is suffering from prolonged or very serious symptoms must seek medical help.

I have taking post exposure prophylaxis tablet for 28 days. i was seeing a red patches on my glans of penis. This patches is same over this time. I think that they was sides effects of this tablet. How to prevent this reaction?
Male | 23
A possible reason for the red patches on your penis glans could be the adverse reaction to post-exposure prophylaxis tablets, which is a medication used to prevent HIV infection after potential exposure. This is a reaction known as a drug rash. To avoid this, it is essential to inform a dermatologist. They may suggest a different medication or recommend ways to manage the rash, such as using gentle skin care products or applying a soothing cream.

Female | 27
These can sometimes be the result of ingrown hairs or sweat glands getting blocked. Pimples in this area might appear as small red bumps. Keep the area clean and dry, avoid squeezing it, and wear loose clothing. If it doesn't go away or gets worse, it's a good idea to talk to a healthcare provider; it's a great idea to talk to a dermatologist in such a case.

I'm getting more pimples and marks on my face nowadays
Female | 23
This problem is called acne which is common among many people. It is caused by clogging of hair follicles with oil and dead skin cells. At times, hormonal changes or genetics can also contribute to its occurrence. To clear up your skin, you can wash it gently using your hands only. Avoid scrubbing too hard as this could worsen the condition. Select non-comedogenic moisturizers that won’t block pores while keeping the face hydrated throughout the day. Alternatively, consult with a dermatologist for further advice on how best to treat this.

I got the cut from the barber trimmer is it the chance of getting hiv virus from that trimmer ?
Male | 21
You are very unlikely to get HIV from a barber trimmer. HIV is not spread by inanimate objects like trimmers but through fluids that carry the virus, such as blood. Look for symptoms such as fever or maybe pimples but always keep in mind the probability of this happening is extremely low.
