Folliculitis seems likely: infected hair follicles cause small, itchy bumps. Warm compresses soothe irritation. Wash gently using mild soap; never scratch. If bumps persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist promptly. Folliculitis is common but manageable with proper care.

Just wanna know something,my upper lip is tanned whole the lower is pink which looks weird,want to know what to do in this situation!!
Male | 18
A tanned upper lip and pink lower lip might seem perplexing, but it’s pretty common. The simplest explanation would be sun exposure since our upper lips are generally more affected by the sun than our lower ones are. To tan less and protect your lips, you should always apply sunscreen before going out into the sun; if you want extra protection, use SPF lip balm as well. Eventually, the colors will even themselves out.

I have alergy problem in the skin.. My face my full body become red from 5 years
Male | 32
It seems like an allergic reaction is happening to your skin. When your body dislikes something, this is possible. Redness may appear on your face and body. Examples are; specific foods, materials, or creams that could have caused it. Avoiding known triggers and using gentle skincare products could help. Seeking further guidance can be necessary from a dermatologist in severe cases.

I accidentally ingested deep freeze gel, only a trace amount from fingers but I feel sick and tongue feels funny, what should I do?
Female | 41
You ingested deep freeze gel by mistake, which can upset your tummy. The gel might contain unsafe ingredients if swallowed. Don't worry, but act quickly. Drink water to dilute the gel. Rinse your mouth thoroughly too. If symptoms worsen like breathing troubles, visit a doctor right away.

I have pimples what is the best treatment for pimples and also acne and how to remove tan
Female | 15
Pimples, acne, and tan are usual skin problems. Red bumps are the assets of the pimple, while a bunch of pimples adds up to a pimple. They are the result of both oily skin and dirt on it. The face can be washed twice a day to achieve this. Implements such as benzoyl peroxide can be used to cure them. Tan is dark skin which is the result of the sun. Using sunscreen can prevent this. Getting rid of the tan takes time, use the skin-lightening creams or laser treatments instead.

For about 12-13 days I have red dot like spots on both my hands. There is severe itching. Wherever I scratch, it spreads further. I took local treatment but there is no difference. This is allergy or worm infection
Female | 24
You might be experiencing a skin condition known as scabies. Scabies are caused by minuscule parasites that dig through the skin, leading to red dots and extreme itching. Getting the problem worse is the scrabbling that can mites spread. Get a dermatologist's prescription cream which kills the mites immediately. Do not scratch to avoid contagion. All your things including clothes, bedding, and towels, ensure they are washed with hot water so there is no recurrence of infestation.

Male | 15
Finding white hair in a young person can be a surprise. It's often mainly because of genetics, stress, or unnatural deficiency of some nutrients. Don't be afraid, however, it's normal. As a preventive measure, eat a healthy balanced diet full of vitamins and minerals and manage stress. You may also opt for milder hair products and refrain from heat treatments.

Hi mam am kavya from Davangere my problem is skin problem pimple problem
Female | 24
Pimples are irritating bumps. They develop when pores clogged with oil and dead cells. Redness, swelling, and discomfort occur. But solutions exist to aid complexion woes. Cleanse skin with mild soap regularly. Limit facial contact. Eat nutritious foods. Try salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide products for blemish reduction. Be patient - improvement takes time. Consult a dermatologist if uncertain.

Why im getting dry it by skin in patches
Male | 54
Your skin may be dehydrated in patches. This could be due to many reasons, such as a lack of moisture, harsh soaps, or skin conditions like eczema. Dry skin can feel rough, scratchy, or even fissure. To help, try washing your kids' hair using a soap that is formulated for them. Use a thick cream or ointment which you should apply daily for at least a week. Also, drink plenty of water. If you do not see an improvement, visit a dermatologist.

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.
Male | 25
You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.

Male | 68
The rashes are an external factor of the skin and can appear as if they are caused by itchy skin or red-bumpy skin. They can be triggered by things like allergies, infections, or skin disorders. For the sake of cleanness, let your skin be clean and dry. Also, make use of mild moisturizers. If it's not getting any improvement, it's better to refer to a dermatologist.

My skin is red sensitive and there is a lot of black spot on my face what to do to clear my dark spots
Female | 22
Redness and sensitivity in your skin, along with the appearance of dark spots, may be due to factors such as sun exposure, irritation, or even hormonal changes. To improve your skin’s condition, consider incorporating gentle cleansers and moisturizers into your routine. Sunscreen is crucial to prevent further discoloration. Additionally, products containing vitamin C or niacinamide may help brighten dark areas. However, since your symptoms are concerning, I encourage you to consult a dermatologist. They can provide personalized advice and treatment options to achieve the best results for your skin health.

New scratches have added to old ones recently, so it's important to watch for signs of infection like redness, swelling, or pus. Clean the wound with soap and water, and monitor it closely. If you notice any of these symptoms, see a doctor right away.

Skin irritation and itches
Female | 27
Skin irritation, that itchy, red feeling can come from many sources. Dry skin is common, but also allergies and bug bites. Some skin conditions cause it too. Your skin may itch, turn red, and develop a rash. Cool showers soothe irritated skin, as do moisturizing creams. Avoid scratching though, it worsens irritation. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a dermatologist.

I have gone through hair transplant surgery 4.5 months ago. I am suffering from Androgenetic Alopecia. As per the doctor, I am taking minoxidil and finastride on daily basis. However, my hair sheds while I apply minoxidil (10-15 hairs shed) and while I wash my head. Please suggest whether this is normal or should I consider any other treatment?
Hair fall is natural. As the lifecycle of hair has different stages.
- Telogen and exogen are shedding phases of hair cycle where we lose hair. 15 to 20% hair are shed in these phases, therefore it's natural.
- But when you lose more hair than routine, then its a matter of concern. Upto 30 to 40 hair per day is normal. Whatever you lose will grow back according to your hair cycle.
- If you are losing thin hair very frequently then it's alarming as well.
- After starting minoxidil hair fall increases. But that is normal and you will get those hair back because you are not losing them from the root.
Keep using minoxidil and finasteride it will help you.
You can refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India, or you can consult me as well anytime you feel that the state of your hair is seeing no improvement.

I had severe coughing in the month of December. And lately there is some pain in my lower left breast area. I think its some muscle or vein. The pain is only there when i cough or sneeze or while lying down or if I try to move while lying down. Else there is no pain at all. Im 27 years old and not married. I have never had any kind of pain before. Any suggestions would be helpful..
Female | 27
It sounds like you might be experiencing muscle strain or irritation in the chest area, possibly due to severe coughing. When we cough frequently, it can put strain on the muscles around the ribs. This might explain the pain when you cough, sneeze, or shift positions. I recommend resting and avoiding activities that exacerbate the discomfort. Applying a warm compress may also provide relief. However, since you’re experiencing persistent pain, it’s essential to consult a healthcare professional to rule out any other underlying issues. They can offer a more tailored assessment and treatment plan.

Female | 19
Fungal acne may appear as very small pimples on your skin, especially the face area. It is by the yeast that lives on your skin. For it to get cleared off, use a non-irritating wash with salicylic acid, unhitch thick creams, and introduce antifungal substances such as tea tree oil. I want you to appreciate the process; it may require some time before you see a difference.
