I am a 24-year-old female. I am suffering from PCOS due to which there is visible growth of facial hair on the upper lips and under the chin. I want to undergo treatment for the permanent removal of this hair.

- Since you have PCOS thus we would suggest going for electrolysis. Although the doctor will know better.
- Electrolysis hair removal treatment can ensure permanency in removing hair, as opposed to laser hair removal which will onky slow down the pace of your hair growth, but is costlier, and will charge rs. 800 to rs. 5000 per hour. You can still enquire with the doctor about laser removal and how it will affect you hair growth given that you are afflicted with this condition.
- Temporary side effects include pain, redness and swellings.
- But if not done attentively, then can also lead to permanent scarring and changes to skin color.

I just want to ask can i go to solarium today if i have a magnetic resonance in 2 days? i mean because of radiation, is it related or not allowed
Female | 21
It is not recommended to go to a solarium before your MRI scan, which is a tanning bed that is more powerful than a normal one. The rays from the solarium can affect how clear the scan will be sometimes. It’s like taking a picture with a dirty lens – things might not turn out sharp. If you are worried about anything, you should avoid the solarium and speak to your doctor about any further concerns.

I am an 39 year old lady I am having dark acne , my chin is so black I am having black heads and white heads my skin is getting to dull . How these all problems believe my face? Hope you can help me
Female | 39
This could be because you have blackheads and whiteheads. They can be the ones that dull your skin. Acne is caused by the build-up of clogged pores, too much oil, and bacteria. Washing your face with a gentle cleanser, not squeezing the pimples, and using non-comedogenic skincare products that won't clog pores are some ways to help. Visit a dermatologist for more tips.

I have a red bump on my leg and it looks like a bug bite. I just want to ask you if it’s venenous and if I should see a doctor. It itches me a lot and it’s red
Male | 12
Bug bites often cause red, itchy spots. Most aren't dangerous, but seek medical help if symptoms worsen. Bites can sometimes trigger fever or swelling. To relieve itchiness, apply a cold compress or anti-itch cream. However, if the bite area enlarges, causes pain, or you develop fever, it's wise to consult a dermatologist.

Female | 50
HPV, especially type 45, is primarily spread through direct skin-to-skin contact, mainly sexual. The chance of transmission through shared clothing is low. However, considering your mother's health condition and her rheumatoid arthritis, it’s good to be cautious. Encourage her to see a gynecologist for proper advice and peace of mind.

HI, I am 40 years old. Today I noticed swelling on my penis skin, I am circumcised but the skin on the shaft closer to the penis head is swollen. There is no pain or itching as of now. Can you please help me !
Male | 40
It looks like you’ve got some swelling in the skin around your penis. Many things could cause painless or itchy-less swelling such as allergic reactions, fluid buildup, and infections. Keeping the area clean and dry is important. Try wearing loose underwear for a bit. If it doesn’t go away or get better, see a dermatologist to check it out.

I am 24 years old girl . I have low vitamin d3 when I get it checked in February and from that time I m taking supplements . All other things are normal .But after 5 month itself my hair fall does not stop at all.I m suffering from high hairfall .
Female | 24
Sometimes not having enough vitamin D3 can cause people to lose their hair. You should keep taking the vitamin D supplement as the doctor told you. You should try to eat more foods that have iron and protein in them as well. One thing that might help is finding ways to relax when you are stressed.

Skin pigmentation occurs when melanin deposits cause dark spots. You may have pigmented areas on your face, neck, thighs, or back. There are different treatments available for pigmentation. Creams, lasers, and chemical peels can help reduce dark spots. However, consulting a dermatologist is crucial. They'll recommend the right treatment based on your skin type and condition.

I have ringworm for almost 4 months .some of the ringworm in my inner thighs and now in pubic area too.Some of them under my breast too.applied clotrimazole, terbinafine ointments. But didn't worked.What should I do
Female | 18
It looks like you have bad case of ringworm which did not respond to the OTC medicines. I suggest that as soon as possible you see a dermatologist who specializes in fungal infections. They may give you oral antifungal medicine and topical treatment to improve the result. Seek urgent medical care since untreated ringworm can cause problems.

I am 54 and have had a swollen, red, itchy, scaly skin leg from the knee to the toes. I’ve been to the doctor 3 times and they checked for a blood clot and ran tests. No clots. Tried 2 different antibiotics that were prescribed and no change. Icing doesn’t change. Elevation doesn’t change. Compression socks doesn’t change it either. Resting it doesn’t help either.
Male | 54
It seems that you have a resistant skin problem on your leg. The redness, swelling, itching and flakiness could indicate different illnesses such as dermatitis or eczema. After excluding blood clots and failure of antibiotics treatment, it might be helpful to have them checked more thoroughly by a dermatologist. They can suggest different kind of therapy which will be more efficient taking into account the exact nature of the disease.

Why is my lips suddenly swollen
Female | 20
Swollen lips may be attributed to everyday causes like a bee sting a skin injury, or an allergic reaction. Injury can be excluded by the consultation of an allergist or dermatologist. If swelling is severe, you should seek instant medical attention.

which doctors need to consult if having redness on front skin or can say Balanites case, Dermatologist/Urologist/Analogist/Sexologist
Male | 60
If you see redness in the front skin area then it might be a condition called balanitis. Symptoms of balanitis are the redness, swelling, and discomfort. Some of the reasons may be: using poor hygiene, infections, or skin conditions. Keeping the area clean, avoiding skin irritants including strong soaps, and wearing comfortable clothes can all help. If the symptoms do not go away or worsen, see a urologist or a dermatologist for the correct treatment.

I have very dark pigmentation around mouth and neck and i have darck circles which is black in color around eyes how tp3 get rid of this
Female | 23
You may have hyperpigmentation, a condition. This may lead to dark patches on the lips and neck and dark circles under the eyes. Mostly, it's because of being out in the sun for too long, hormones that change the appearance of your skin, or your genes. The following are good methods for managing this; you can use sunscreen, peel gently, and brighten lotions for your skin. You can visit a dermatologist for consultation and treatment.

Iam 20 year female. I have a burned scar on my cheeks. Is there any remedy to cure and leave the scar as soon as possible?
Female | 20
Injuries can be the result of heat, chemicals, or sun exposure. Until then, keep the area clean and do not scratch it. The application of aloe vera or honey can help to relieve the scar. With time, it will become less noticeable, but be careful as scars are slow to vanish. It is not enough to wear a hat in the sun, make sure you also avoid getting darkened by it.

Treatment for razor bumps in bikini area, have used ketoconazole cream for it but still no result would love the assistance of a dermatologist here to help out with the treatment
Female | 21
Razor bumps in the bikini area are a common cause for concern. Injuries to follicles that occur through shaving are usually behind these bumps. They are typically red, itchy, and with small bumps. When ketoconazole cream does not help, another alternative is the use of a mild hydrocortisone cream that can help to control inflammation. Put on some lotion to the part all the time so it stays moisturized.

I am a 24 year old girl who has undergone culture test frequently and taken medication but I’m still itchy In my perineum and it looks whitish . I’ve also applied steroid creams. Today I came back from a long trip and my liner was soaked with discharge and some of it looks like chunky cheese
Female | 24
It appears that you could be dealing with a yeast infection. Yeast is a type of germ that can cause itching, white discharge and sometimes looks like chunky cheese. Taking antibiotics or wearing tight clothes can sometimes cause yeast infections. You can try using over-the-counter antifungal creams for a few weeks to see if it helps. In addition, wearing loose cotton clothes and avoiding scented products in that area may also help. If the condition persists, you can visit a dermatologist.

I am 28 yo female and recently got sclerotherapy done on both legs (last Wednesday so it has been over a week). My veins have gotten worse, they are purple and more visible and quite sensitive to the touch. There is no bruising. My dermatologist said I may have had an allergic reaction to the treatment and suggested I get antihistamines. Will the veins subside?
Female | 28
Veins do appear more visible naturally after sclerotherapy treatment, but they usually improve over time as the body reabsorbs the treated veins. Its best to discuss your concerns with your dermatologist and follow the recommended treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting or standing and to wear compression stockings as recommended to decrease swelling and heal faster.

But It didn't work at all.Does your clinic provide the best treatment for my skin problem.Is that work for my skin type.
Female | 22
Dark underarms can be due to fungus, sweating and acanthosis nigricans(insulin resistance). which needs through check. Skin Lightening creams, peels and carbon laser are very effective. Treatment of underlying condition need to be seen into. Sweat absorbing powders can be used. And anti fungal creams to treat the fungus.
