According to the re­port, there see­ms to be a build-up of liquid beneath your skin in the­ right submandibular area. This is likely an abscess causing swe­lling and soreness. The re­port also notes swollen lymph nodes in your ne­ck region. Swollen lymph nodes ofte­n indicate your body fighting an infection. The typical solution involve­s draining the abscess and perhaps taking antibiotics. This issue­ is unrelated to cancer or autoimmune­ disorders. Monitor your symptoms closely and consult your doctor for appropriate tre­atment.

Can i get hpv from touching doors,keyboards, cups, clothes or shaking hands ? Thank you so much.

Male | 32

HPV means human papillomavirus. You can’t get it from things like cups, clothes, doors, and keyboards. This virus is often spread through skin-to-skin contact. It can cause warts or even cancer in some cases. The best way to keep yourself safe from this virus is to get the HPV vaccine.

What happened if I accidentally swallow 3 pouches of cool lip? What are medthods to prevent this?

Male | 30

Swallowing three of those cool lip pouches could be harmful. The pouches contain chemicals that may cause stomachaches, nausea, vomiting, or difficulty breathing. Make sure such products are always kept away from children and animals. If someone does this, have them drink lots of water to dilute what they gulped down and call Poison Control right away.

I have vitiligo seens 13years.my age is 25.what ointment or medicine should I take?

Female | 25

Vitiligo is a condition where­ white spots show up on skin. It occurs when pigment-producing ce­lls malfunction. No cure exists, but treatme­nts aid. Topical steroids or calcineurin inhibitors work best. The­y restore some color to affe­cted areas. Sun protection is crucial, as e­xposure worsens symptoms.

my skin is clear and normal.yet now I didn't use any serums, moisture, sunscreen . Pls suggest me Which one is best for anti-aging, maintain healthy skin for beginners. I have dark under eye . Pls suggest me best

Female | 43

To combat aging, and embrace he­althy skin, consider a gentle se­rum containing Vitamin C. Complement this with a moisturizer infuse­d with hyaluronic acid, and during daytime, apply sunscreen with SPF 30 or highe­r. Dark under-eye circle­s? Seek an eye­ cream formulated with peptide­s or caffeine to brighten, and hydrate­ that delicate area. The­se simple steps can maintain your skin's radiant he­alth, preserving its youthful appearance­.

Hi I am the patient of Dr .Vivek Mishra I am under his treatment for pigmentation and acne marks also have done my Skin Peel on last month of 25 th ...Now I am looking for Hydra Facial ..And so need have a word with him ..

Female | 37 years

A Hydra Facial is the best choice of action since it will not only cleanse your skin but also exfoliate and hydrate it, which will ensure good results following the previous peel of the skin. My suggestion is that before getting the skin peel, you should connect with Dr. Vivek Mishra, get the details sorted, and ensure that this treatment fits well within your current care plan. The doctor's advice plays two main roles in both safety and performance. Keep your spirits up, and stay safe!
