Staphylococcus aureus often leads to skin infections, boils, and even more serious problems such as bloodstream infections. It's caused by bacteria that may be hard to completely remove from the body. If the usual treatments like augmentin were ineffective in getting rid of the infection, vancomycin recommended by your friend is worth considering. Vancomycin is an antibiotic usually used as a last resort for persistent staph infections, especially those that do not respond to other antibiotics. When using vancomycin, it is important to follow your doctor's advice on dosage and treatment duration.

Hello doctor I have acne problem and I am using isotretinoin 5mg daily from 3 months Now I have pimple again And my skin also Oily
Male | 19
You have the feeling that you're the one who has combat acne and/or oily skin, and you have been on Isotretinoin for a few months. Acne can reoccur due to the treatment, particularly if the skin is oily. On a positive note, the greasy skin can draw congestion to the pores and form swellings. Wash your face gently, use oil-free products, and consult with a dermatologist if your acne comes back. They can modify your treatment program.

My doctor prescribed me 100 mg of fluconazole but I accidentally bought 200 mg, should i still take it?
Male | 24
Taking more medicine than prescribed can be risky. Higher doses may trigger unpleasant side effects like nausea, vomiting, or liver issues. Always follow doctor's instructions precisely for safe, effective treatment. If unsure, promptly consult your doctor before proceeding.

I've got like red blister to my penis shaft and pain ?
Male | 29
A red blister on the penis shaft with pain could mean genital herpes. This skin condition often has painful blisters. It's usually caused by a virus. To find out for sure, you should see a dermatologist. They can look at it and give treatment. Keeping clean, not having sex, and reducing stress may help.

Hello doc..I have painful rashes all over my body that later turn into scaly patches. What is my diagnosis
Female | 26
These rashes could mean psoriasis, a condition where immune issues make skin cells grow too fast. It causes red, itchy patches to turn scaly. To treat psoriasis, doctors may prescribe medicines and creams. These help ease symptoms and slow cell growth. But see a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and the right care.

Im 36 male i get wond it heals but black spot does not go why
Male | 36
You are concerned about the sore that does not heal well and has a black spot. That black spot may be due to necrotic tissue or infection. The wound must remain clean and dry. If it's not healing or you have redness, warmth, or pus, consult a dermatologist to prevent the situation from worsening.

Had a cream that I used, I got home and started using my family cream which gives me reddish small bumps, they said it’s an allergy, I stopped and started using my cream, but the reddish bumps still showing for like a week now , what’s happening. I’m noticing new reddish bumps too.
Male | 28
Skin reactions are possible after using products. Allergies often lead to reddish bumps appearing. Even when stopping the cream's use, bumps can linger. Keep your skin moisturized and clean during this time. If symptoms persist or worsen, consulting a dermatologist provides valuable guidance.

My age is 27 .I have acne problem for around 10 yrs..Can i take tretinoin tablet 5mg lifelong on a daily basis..this stops my acne breakouts but if i stop it again my acne starts coming again. Is it ok to take any tablets on a daily basis to prevent acne breakouts
Male | 25
Acne is red bumps on the skin. It is common for young people like you. Acne happens when skin makes lots of oil and gets blocked. Taking tretinoin tablets for a long time is not a good idea. It is better to find why the skin gets bumps. Maybe try new skin routines with dermatologist's help.

I have face acne something like white watery pimples on my face from past few days
Female | 22
Your face seems to have clear, fluid-filled pimples - a kind of acne. Acne develops when oil and dead cells obstruct hair follicles. Hormonal changes, stress, or oily skincare products trigger it. Gently wash your face twice daily with a mild cleanser, avoiding squeezing pimples. Try over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid acne treatments. Drink lots of water. Eat a balanced diet for healthy skin. If acne persists, consult a dermatologist for guidance.

I think I may have the STD/STI virus called Herpes. There are tiny little pink bumps that have been on my penis for a while now.
Male | 23
It is really important to keep monitoring and watching any changes occurring in your body. These small pink pimples that you see might be due to Herpes. Having sores, blisters, and itching are the common outcomes when you get an infection. A virus caused by herpes simplex is spread by the transmission of proteins from the infected source to the recipient's body. But the only certain way till the moment it is still unconfirmed is to get tested by a professional health worker.

Psoriasis solution 4 year old
Male | 26
Psoriasis happens when the skin turns red, with patches and itching. Scales on the skin look silvery. Not catching – you won't spread it. In kids, Psoriasis may come from stress or family history. Manage Psoriasis by moisturizing skin with creams. Don't scratch skin. Use gentle soap. Sometimes, doctors give special lotions for Psoriasis.

I(22f) lost 20 kgs in 2022 and since then I am suffering from hairfall. I got blood test 2 months ago and I was deficient in vit d(9.44mg/ml) and iron(30). Doctor prescribed 60000iu shots twice weekly and a tablet for daily with additional 1000iu. Also taking iron supplement. For 2-3 weeks ny hair fall came down to 10-15 strans but slowly started increasing and now at 2 months it's more than 100 per day. Before starting supplements it was 40-50. What happened?
Female | 22
The pills might be starting to work. Not having enough vitamin D or iron can make your hair fall out. You may not get all the nutrients you need from them for a while, even if you’re beginning to see things get better. These are some things that need time. Remember not to be anxious and impatient since new hair will only grow slowly. In case everything remains unchanged, contact a dermatologist for more instructions.

Excessive hair growth on female breast, chest and stomach
Female | 19
Excessive hair growth on the body can be caused by several factors, such as hormonal imbalances, genetics, or certain medical conditions. Symptoms may involve visible hair in places commonly less frequent for women. It is crucial to make it clear that this is a treatable problem. Methods may include lifestyle changes (e.g. having a proper diet) or medical techniques like using hormones or laser hair removal. To those who have these problems, I suggest you talk to your dermatologist, who can offer you the best help and look after your health in general.

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.
Female | 16
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.

Peeling skin on thumb with sore. What can I do?
Female | 34
The peeling skin could be caused by irritation, dryness, or an allergic reaction. Perhaps, the soreness comes from the skin being a bit burned. Keep your hands moisturized with lotion and don't pick at the skin. If it's not getting any better or if it's getting worse, visit a dermatologist.

I have had an abscess several times over the past year, I’ve tried to get rid of it on my own an that’s not working. I’m worried that it’s gonna get bad, my head hurts only on that side an my throat as well it’s so swelled
Female | 41
An abscess is a pocket of pus that can occur in different body parts. If you also have a continuous headache and a swelling of the throat on the same side, the abscess is probably causing more problems. Treatment by a dermatologist is the only road to get proper treatment. Procrastination of this could be a cause of more serious problems.

You might feel pressure around your neck, leaving marks on your face. Strange sleeping positions or stress could cause this issue. Try relaxing techniques and using a comfortable pillow. However, seek medical advice if marks persist or you experience pain. A professional consultation from a dermatologist would ensure appropriate care for your condition.

Montelukast sodium and fexofenadine hydrochloride is this tablet for skin allergy
Female | 45
Yes, Montelukast sodium and fexofenadine hydrochloride are two of the medications used to cure skin allergies. Skin allergy patients usually get symptoms like itching, redness, and rashes. They perform this role by impeding the action of those substances on the parasympathetic nervous system. Consult an allergist before starting these medications for your skin allergies.
