Why is my uncircumcised penis red and painful?
I am a 17 year old boy. I am uncircumcised. I got to know that by 17, I should be able to pull back my foreskin completely. I tried doing it and after a few painful attempts of pulling my foreskin, I did it. But the head of the penis was red and I got very uncomfortable and painful upon touching the head of the penis. I am worried about it as I have always been conscious and anxious about it. Please help me out. Thank you!

What you are experiencing is a common issue called Balanitis. It's prevalent in boys who were not circumcised. Symptoms consist of redness and pain when the penis head is touched. This can occur due to bad hygiene or an allergy. The best way out is to keep the place clean and dry, avoid harsh soaps, and gently hold the skin back while showering. If it doesn't work, you need to visit a dermatologist to give you further advice.

I am having severe hairfall. I have tried homeopathy and ashwagandha, but no results. What should I do??
Female | 23
Homeopathy may work for some people, but not necessarily everyone.
I will advice you to get your Trichoscpic examination done which will help in getting to the root cause of your problem. Persistent hair fall is a multifactorial condition which requires scalp lotions, some nutritional supplementation and some appropriate shampoos along with therapies.

Sir, I want to ask about peeling oil. Does extra strong yellow peeling oil really peel the skin???
Female | 24
This product is effective in removing the skin, yet it is extremely important to be considerate. Using strong peeling oils can cause redness, burning, and even damage to the skin. These products work by peeling off the top layer of the skin, which tends to improve skin appearance, but their wrong application can cause great trouble to the user. The best way is to consult a dermatologist before using those products to prevent side effects.

Hey sir I am lupus meri skin par red rashes a gaye hain bahut please tell me a skin tube
Female | 29
Dealing with red skin rashes can seriously disrupt your comfort. These rashes might indicate lupus, an immune condition attacking healthy tissues. Protecting skin from sun, using gentle products, and reducing stress may help ease rashes. Seeing a dermatologist for evaluation and treatment is wise. Taking proper care of your skin and overall well-being is crucial when managing lupus-related rashes.

Last night, while masturbating, i got a friction burn (of a size of pea) on my glans penis & it became reddish .... my semen came in contact with it for some minutes.... will it lead to the formation of anti sperm antibodies?
Male | 25
A friction burn on the penis head can make it red and uncomfortable, especially if semen touches it. However, the risk of developing anti-sperm antibodies from this is low. To aid healing, keep the area clean and avoid further irritation. If you notice any unusual symptoms or concerns, it's always wise to seek medical advice.

I had acne breakout in my forehead and chin
Female | 28
The forehead and chin acne breakout is a skin disorder resulting from blocked pores caused by excessive oil production. I recommend that you see a dermatologist to receive proper diagnosis and treatment. Based on the level of your acne, they might suggest topical adjuvants or oral medications.

I am 18 years old , I don't know why now a days I'm feeling that my lips are becoming swollen and red and very itichy or painful. Stomatitis in inner upper and lower lips I guess .
Female | 18
Looks like it could be stomatitis, which can lead to swollen, red, itchy, or even painful lips. The reasons for this can be irritation, allergies, infections, or the lack of nutrients. Try eating bland and not acidic or spicy foods, keep drinking enough water, and think about using lip balm with calming ingredients like aloe vera or coconut oil. If the symptoms persist or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

Hello doctor I am sangeetha .I have hairfall .I have losing 70 hairs per day it is normal or not?
Female | 27
Losing some hair daily isn't unusual. Around 50-100 strands lost is normal. However, excess hair fall can occur due to various reasons. Stress, poor diet, hormone changes, and genetic factors contribute to increased shedding. If hair loss seems excessive or causes concern, consider consulting a dermatologist for guidance.

I recently had a syphilis infection. My RPR titer went down from 64 to 8. Will it get to non - reactive
Male | 29
Syphilis, a treatable infection, responds to antibiotic treatment. Your declining RPR titer indicates progress. A titer of 8 signifies improvement, though complete clearance may take time. Persevere with prescribed treatment. Consult your dermatologist regularly for monitoring and guidance. Syphilis symptoms include sores, rashes, fever, and fatigue. Completing treatment prevents complications and stops the infection's spread.

It sounds like you might have an infection or an allergic reaction. Swollen lips, changes in discharge, itching, and unexpected bleeding can be signs of a vaginal infection or other gynecological issue. Please see a gynecologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Hi DR. I am 22 years old. I am very worried because of my hair fall randomly. Even my scalp is completely exposed.I have not taken any medicine yet. What is the solution??
Male | 22
Losing some hair is normal, but if you notice that a lot of hair is falling out and your scalp becomes visible, it is something to be concerned about. Hair can fall due to a variety of things like stress, lack of proper nutrition or genetics. To help yourself out, make sure you eat well-balanced meals, try to reduce stress as much as possible and use mild hair care products – However, if none of these seem working for you then visit a dermatologist.

Male | 22
The symptoms you described, which include itching, ringworm-like sores, wet blisters, and red/black spots, are characteristic of an allergic reaction. Boils and raised skin on the penis, the waist, and the abdomen may also be linked. Never scratching is the way to go if you want to avoid extra irritation. A calming soothing lotion would be helpful. If the symptoms continue or worsen, it is important to go to the dermatologist for the correct diagnosis and treatment.

These spots are usually caused by melanosis, which changes skin color. Don't worry, as it's generally harmless. However, bacterial infections, moles, or other skin conditions could also be responsible. It's advisable to see a gynecologist to determine the exact condition and recommend the right treatment if needed.

If the bikini line rash goes away in a day with a steroid cream it probably is not an STD but maybe psoriasis. Please, go to a dermatologist for checkup and appropriate treatment.
