Why do I have itchy bumps on inner labia?
I am an 18-year-old girl who has been experiencing small white itchy bumps on my inner labia. They look similar to hair bumps or pimples. I've had them for about 6 years. They did go away at one point but later showed back up. I've gotten them after shaving.

You might be suffering from ingrown hairs or folliculitis on your inner labia. The condition can develop after shaving when the hair starts to grow back and then grows into the skin. It is a very common condition that is usually not serious. To prevent this, you may try gentle shaving techniques or completely avoid shaving in that area. Keeping the area dry and clean is another way to go. If the bumps become painful or get worse, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

- Resistant acne and severe acne not responding to conventional treatments needs the consultation of a qualified dermatologist. Most of the times resistant acne has underlying hormonal imbalance which has to be diagnosed and addressed. Certain conditions like PCOS, insulin resistance, steroid abuse, certain drugs may be cause of severe acne. A dermatogist may advise certain blood investigations, to understand the cause behind acne and may prescribe drugs like Oral contraceptive pills, oral retinoids or antibiotics along with procedural treatment to treat the acne and long term resolution
- Genetic tone of skin cannot be changed. However tan or any other acquired skin pigmentation can be improved by topical creams, sunscreens etc. chemical peels, laser toning and other procedures can help in stubborn pigmentation

I am 31 year old female from lucknow ,i want to know about skin melanin treatment surgery for skin lightening and whitening ,is this is good for skin in future or in my 60’s ,,i have dry combination skin Please suggest
Female | 31
Skin melanin treatment surgery can be harmful in the long run so I suggest not to go for it. You can try other treatments like chemical peels or dermabrasion instead. These treatments can help lighten the skin and are not harmful in the long run. Also using moisturizer and sunscreen can help.

I am 29 years old female suffering from ringworm/ bacterial scalp infection. I have consulted family doctor. He suggested flucolab -150 and some other medicine too. I am worried about hair fall and bald patches on skin. Please recommend shampoo to reduce redness and infection
Female | 29
Bacterial infection and ringworm are two different things. Ringworm is fungal infection that presents rings generally over the areas where there is more sweating like thigh area, under the breast or armpit area and that is to be treated by anti-fungal medication for long time like 1-2 months. Bacterial infection is the one which is present with the puss and boils and has to be treated with antibiotics. Fungal infection on the scalp is very uncommon in adults and its only a problem of pre-school children. Proper diagnosis is required for the treatment to work. Consult a dermatologist for the same.

I have white spots on my face from past 2 months...And now new ones on hands..What is the cause of the same?
Female | 13
It sounds like you may have a skin condition called vitiligo. Vitiligo causes white patches to appear on the skin because the pigment cells stop working. It is not contagious or harmful, but it can cause worry or self-consciousness. There is no cure for vitiligo, but treatments like corticosteroid creams or light therapy may help. It's best to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and management.

29 year old male, a hair got tied around penis and while attempting to remove it lacerated the middle of the glans before being removed. Resulting in a scar that looks like an open cut during arousal but seems to be closed while at rest. Happened two weeks ago. Didn't bleed. Didn't heal
Male | 29
During arousal, the scar that was formed may appear as a cut, but it is healing, and this process will soon pass. Scars are sometimes very difficult to heal and this may require a long time for a full recovery. You should maintain good hygiene in the area and avoid any more damage. In case there is a pain issue or symptoms of infection such as redness and warmth, which are very rare for such diseases, it is necessary to consult a dermatologist.

I’m 16 and want to use nizoral for dandruff but I heard it can block dht. Is it safe to use?
Male | 16
The nizoral shampoo helps with dandruff. Yes, it might affect the DHT hormone linked to hair loss. But no worries, using Nizoral sometimes for dandruff is generally fine. Follow the bottle's instructions carefully. If concerned about hair loss, it's wise to consult a dermatologist to explore other suitable options.

I am using minoxidil since 2 month. After using this my hair line is more visible what can I do ?
Male | 25
This might happen sometimes as a side effect. Minoxidil could cause increased hair fall before new hair starts to grow. The most important thing is to wait because this shedding usually is temporary. If you are worried, it’s better to continue using the medicine as directed and consult your doctor for more advice.

I am having pink dots on hands and face appeared 4 days back .
Female | Pragna
You seem to have a disease of the skin called petechiae that displays its presence as small pink or red dots with breakage of capillary vessels. It happens because of illnesses, certain medications, or just scratching the skin too hard. To heal them, keep your fingers away from the irritated spots, and you should also use a gentle moisturizer. if it does not improve or give any other symptoms consult a dermatologist.

Acne frequently affects teenagers and grown-ups. Clogged pores, hormonal changes, bacteria cause it. Wash your face gently twice daily using mild cleansers. Don't touch pimples or pick them. Avoid harsh scrubbing. Use oil-free cosmetics, skincare items. See a dermatologist if severe.

Due to Heavy Sun light , face feeling Burning
Male | 22
Your face might seem burnt from too much exposure to the sun, and this can be very uncomfortable. This occurs when the skin gets too much sun without protection. Symptoms can be redness, pain, and maybe blistering. Immediately get into the shade for relief, apply a cool compress, and use aloe vera gel to soothe. Wear sunscreen in future to avoid a repeat of the same.

Para ka talaba ma small Corn tha aab thik hogaya by corn cap but sojan ho gaya hai
Male | 20
A small corn grew on your foot. You used a corn cap, causing it to increase in size. The swelling occurs when the skin reacts to pressure or friction. Soak your foot in warm water. Gently file the corn. Wear comfortable shoes to reduce pressure. If it doesn't improve, see a dermatologist.

There’s like a red line appeared in my back since last 2 weeks it feels like 2D
Female | 17
This red line is most probably a rash that arises from some irritation of your skin due to something. The most frequent reasons are allergies, insect bites, and skin irritation due to clothing. To help, try using a mild soap and not scratching that area. If it doesn't get better, visit a dermatologist.

I have like red dot on my ball looks like wart now sore
Male | 43
You probably have a red dot that resembles a wart on your private area and is now painful. This might be due to a viral infection known as "genital warts". It is very necessary to not scratch it as this will make the infection spread. Both diagnosis and treatment should be done by a dermatologist. Warts can be removed with medicines or procedures such as freezing or laser therapy.

Sir I don't sit too long in the toilet and I never wear shoes tight dresses still I am suffering from tiny red spots on my arch of the foot few on my hand legs and also it's itching a lot
Female | 23
Usually, they’re a sign of a common skin condition called eczema. Itchy red spots on the skin are the most common symptoms. Clothing that is too tight and sitting for long periods can make it worse. Ways to help include wearing loose clothing, keeping your skin moisturized, and not scratching it. If the itchiness doesn’t improve, it’s a good idea to talk to a dermatologist.

I have purple spots on my arm but i feel any pain
Male | 20
Red-purple dots may appear on your arm. They don't hurt. These come from tiny blood vessels bursting close to the skin's surface. This condition is called purpura. Purpura can happen due to small injuries or randomly. Most cases go away without treatment. However, if more spots show up, or other symptoms occur, or if purpura persists, you should see a dermatologist. This can rule out underlying health issues causing these spots.

I am an 18 year old female and my nipples look really weird. around the bulb (?) of the nipple are patches of white skin.
Female | 18
You may be experiencing a condition called nipple eczema. This might make patches of white skin around the nipple. It may also itch or hurt sometimes. Allergic reactions, harsh soaps, or dry skin can be reasons for the nipple eczema. In addition, use mild and unscented products on your breasts and use a good quality moisturizer. If it's persistent, you should also approach a dermatologist for more preference.

Sometimes, you could suffer from itchy skin after a bite. The animal has to do with its saliva. See if there is a change in the area of the bite and wash it regularly to avoid any possible severe infection.

For vitiligo problem please inform me details
Female | 60
Vitiligo is a skin infection that shows up as white regions on the skin. The main path to getting these is when the skin's melanocyte cells add color. Even though why the cells die is a mystery, for the time being, the immune system might be at fault. A cure for vitiligo doesn't exist, but with therapies such as light therapy or creams, patients can experience some relief. Remember to take care of your skin using sunblock as well. If the condition doesn't improve, please visit a dermatologist.
