Did Detol burn cause stubborn facial brown patch?
I applied undiluted dettol on my face [acne region (cheek and forehead) as it was bleeding] and forgot to wash it off. This later burnt my skin and now two months later theres a brownish patch which I am unable to get rid of regardless of how many scars removal cream and depigmenting creams I have used. Please help me recognise the problem with a solution for the same. Thank you.

Undiluted Dettol is said to cause burns and dark patches on the skin, especially the sensitive area of the face. The brownish skin spot that you have may be the result of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. To discolor the patch, avoid sun exposure by applying sunscreen, and think about visiting a dermatologist for chemical peels or laser therapy treatment.

The first thing to try is to use a gentle, scent-free moisturizer on your eyelid. Besides, stop the usage of any products that may be irritating reason. If it doesn't get better, visit a dermatologist for further advice.

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.

My daughter is 11 year and her hairs from the front is falling. what is the reason
Female | 11
If the hairs are falling from front at the age of 11 years that might be due to tractional alopecia or very tight tying of hair. There should be loose or normal tying of hairs. It is always better to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I have sweating glands under eyes. Can that be cured. If yes, how?
Sweating under the eyes is abnormal and may be an indication of such a problem as hyperhidrosis- this can signify something wrong in numerous parts of the body that appear to sweat profusely. Treatment alternatives range from topical antiperspirants, Botox injections, oral treatments to surgery if necessary. It is best to contact a dermatologist who can diagnose your specific condition and advise you on the most suitable treatment. They can give you a detailed assessment to find the root cause of your sweating and create an individual treatment plan that will help them deal with all these symptoms effectively. Remember, key to effective addressing of hyperhidrosis is the correct diagnosis as well as tailored treatment.

My son has redish spots on the body feeling swear itching and burrowing with swelling.
Male | Roshaan
Your son might have a skin condition called hives. These are small, pinkish-red, itchy lumps that appear on the skin. Hives are generally caused by a person's allergic reaction to specific types of food, or drugs, or by bug bites. Give him an antihistamine that will alleviate the itchy skin and reduce the swelling. Moreover, you should search for the elements that cause the hives to not occur the rest of the time.

I have a bump on my head and it has been there for a bit possibly a cyst am i ok?
Female | 14
A cyst is an enclosed sac filled with fluid. It forms under the skin as a lump. Cysts may feel tender, and they grow slowly over time. Doctors should examine unusual bumps to identify them. Most cysts are harmless, but removal might help if it bothers you or keeps growing. If it doesn't cause issues, leaving it alone is also okay. However, getting it checked by a dermatologist provides peace of mind.

I'm 25 years old and have developed a rash on my ankle. It started really small and has increased massively since returning from holiday. It's extremely itchy and uncomfortable.
Male | 25
You have developed contact dermatitis. This is a condition caused when the skin reacts to something it has touched, such as a new lotion or plant. The affected area usually becomes red, swollen, and itchy with small blisters or hives. Try to remember if there was anything different that you came into contact with before the rash appeared. To relieve itching apply cold compresses and mild lotions. If there are no changes after several days, see a dermatologist for help.

I am suffering from a skin problem from the last 2 years. I have red circles and itching in my private parts. What should I do now? I have been taking medicines and ointments from the last 2 years. Still it is not cured. What should I do now?
Male | 17
The skin problem which is presented with red circles & itching in the private parts is most likely due to the fungal infection. Nowadays there are lots of such problems in fungal infections in terms of the resistance of fungal infections and also in terms of the duration of treatment that is required. Ideally, you need to go through the antifungal treatment and go to the dermatologist who will guide you with the right anti-fungal treatment for a prolonged period of time. Till all the rashes go back because even if a few rashes are also left it will come back. That is why visit the nearest dermatologist.

My mother had a small lump on her hand so can she take moxiforce cv 625 this medicine
Female | 58
Any lump or soft tissue can be due to many reasons like injury, inflammation, or even tumors. Moxiforce CV 625 is a medicine prescribed to treat infections, but without determining the exact cause of the lump, it is not advisable to use it. It is more preferable to have a doctor to check the lump and decide which is the best treatment.

I had chicken pox 2 years back and the mark of chicken pox was left on my hand, 2 days back I had dipped cotton inside dettol and wrapped that on the mark. When I opened it yesterday I had 2 bubbles beside those marks on my skin
Male | 16
You may have gotten sores next to the chickenpox scars on your hand. These sores might be caused by irritation or infection. Do not scratch or pop these sores because doing so can make them more infected. Clean and dry the area. Using a soothing lotion or getting checked out by a dermatologist would also help to prevent complications.

I applied a sunnies face lipstick accidentally ( without examining the lipstick before because i had used it yesterday and it looked fine ) today there was some yellow thin patch on the top part of the lipstick , I wiped it off with water , applied face was ( ponds ) on my lips and then brushed my teeth. Is it okay? should I be concerned? I am not feeling uncomfortable. what should i do with the lipstick? I applied it on my hand ( path was removed after i applied on my lips ) and the texture was fine , with no rash. should I wait and see if the mold regrows? Also i store my lipsticks in dry cool place and i have never mixed it with any other lipstick i just bought it a month ago and used only a few times.
Female | 17
You used a lipstick that may have had some mold on it. Makeup products mold due to age or contamination sometimes. The yellow spot you noticed could be mold. You do not feel any discomfort, so you are probably fine. Always remember to wash the lipstick before using it again. You should also check for any changes on your lips and see a doctor if you notice something unusual.

Extrem skin dryness after using clindamycin gel on face
Female | 22
A severe rash on the face is a possible side effect of the Clindamycin gel after applying it. This can be a result of the active ingredient in the gel which may cause skin dryness and irritation. To resolve this problem, it is recommended to go to a dermatologist.

Female | 18
Acne is an issue many people deal with. Clogged pores allow oil and dead skin build-up. Whiteheads, blackheads, pimples form. Use gentle face wash. Don't pop pimples. Over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide products help. If very severe acne persists, see a dermatologist. They can prescribe stronger medication.

Lump in left side of neck that is tender when pressed on. Been there for 3 weeks. Last 3 to 4 days whole of neck that side and collar bone the same side have been hurting as well.
Female | 20
This happens when your body fights infection. Inflammation is indicated by the tenderness and pain. The pain moving to the collarbone could mean that the infection is spreading. It is important to get checked by a dermatologist so that they can find out what exactly is causing it. They might prescribe antibiotics if it’s because of an infection.

Female | 26
Allergies that occur are redness, itchiness, and material on the skin. By the way, doing an antihistamine is the best way to deal with the situation. Stop using the gel at once. Use a mild cleanser to wash your face gently. Use an odorless, non-irritating moisturizer to keep the skin moist. Contact a dermatologist if the skin problems continue or get worse.
