Balanitis is what you are probably suffering from. Balanitis refers to a situation when the foreskin of the penis or its tip becomes red, inflamed, and sensitive. The reasons could be not cleaning the foreskin, irritation due to soaps, or even infections. To assist, guarantee that the area is kept clean and dry, avoid using harsh soaps, and you may need a dermatologist to prescribe medication.

Little Black spot on penis next to urethra ripped off by me no pain bloof stopper after 5 second i dont know what it is please help and keep anonymous
Male | 16
Worrying about such things is completely normal. The small genitals you described might be a harmless mole or a skin tag. When you accidentally ripped it off, it might have bled through your skin. Keeping the area clean is essential to avoid the infection. If the bleeding persists or if you observe any signs of infection such as increased redness, swelling, or pain, it is advisable to get it checked by a dermatologist.

A while back I realized I had a mole in my labia mayora. It’s between 0.4-0.5cm big, oval shaped and one color. I think I’ve had it for months now but since I really started paying attention to it I don’t think it has grown. Should I be concerned?
Female | 23
New moles often appear on the skin, like the labia majora. Watch the mole closely if it changes size, shape, or color. Any changes, itching, bleeding, or pain requires seeing a dermatologist.

The body can be affected by stretch marks during its rapid growth or weight gain, and this is common during teenage. It may occur as a consequence of hormonal shifts too. Still, seeking advice from a dermatologist would be the best option to make an accurate diagnosis and determine the right treatment.

Pls my daughter has this swell on the thumb with pus in it ,very painful Pls what medication should I get for her ??
Female | 10
It might be a infection that can be sometimes caused by bacterias or other microorganism. In my view, you need to see a dermatologist. They may prescribe antibiotics or tell you to open and wash a puss from the swelling. Next steps include making sure the area is kept clean and covered which can slow down the spread of the infection.

I have developed skin infection. It's white and reddish thick dry scaly itchy skin area.
Male | Shailesh Patel
You might be suffering from a fungal skin infection known as ringworm. Ringworm can turn your skin into white, reddish, thick, dry, and scaly. Apart from that, the skin can get very itchy. Ringworm is a type of fungus that spreads through skin-to-skin contact. To help get rid of ringworm, you can use antifungal cream. However, it would be best if you cleaned and dried the area.

My hair has a lot of dandruff and hair loss
Female | 24
Dandruff is a COMMON scalp condition causing itching and flaking. Hair loss can be caused by GENETICS, stress, or illness. Maintaining good scalp hygiene can help reduce dandruff. Use a medicated shampoo containing SALICYLIC ACID or KETOCONAZOLE to treat dandruff. Consider seeing a dermatologist if symptoms persist. Eat a balanced diet rich in PROTEIN and VITAMINS for healthy hair..

1 month ago a pet dog scratched me after washing the area with soap there is no mark, redness etc till now so I don't have to worry right
Male | 13
No mark or redness from that dog scratch seems good. But pet scratches sometimes let bacteria get in the skin. Look out if it swells up, hurts, or oozes pus. For now, keep washing it clean with soap and water. But if those issues pop up, get medical advice from a dermatologist.

Is there a chance to be caught by Hiv if someone's diabetes needle pricked my hand
Female | 19
The likelihood of HIV infection is negligible if a diabetic needle pricks your hand. HIV is transferred via blood, however, the needle prick is not a high-risk exposure. If you are concerned, watch out for symptoms such as flu, fever, or rash. If you see them, go to a doctor.

Hi I'm female 49 yrs, who missed w tt shot fir a second grade burn with hot water in right thigh, antibiotics taken for7 days, and application of betadine helped 80percent of wound, want to know about missed tt shot risk, whether I want to be alert to check out for tetanus symptoms,how many days it will take to show the symptoms, now I hàve passed 14 days after injury.please reply
Female | 49
Since you missed tetanus vaccination after second-degree burns, you are at risk for tetanus infection. The symptoms may be visible within 3 to 21 days, usually at 7 to 10 days. Tightness of muscles, spasms in the jaw, and difficulty in swallowing are some of the symptoms that one may experience. If you notice these signs, you should seek medical attention at once. The tetanus vaccine can, however, be administered after an injury to avoid infection.

Hair loss can be caused by a various factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, stress, medications etc. But there are treatments such as topical medications like minoxidil, hair transplants, etc. that exist to manage hair loss issues. I recommend you to visit a qualified hair transplant doctor. Based on the severity of your hair loss and other factors, he may suggest the best solution for you.

Male | 17
Vitiligo is a skin condition in which white patches appear on your skin due to the loss of pigment cells. You are applying Melbild lotion and Tacroz Forte, which can contribute to the pigmentation process on your skin. If you are not seeing any improvements after 6 months, you should probably consider discussing other treatment options with your dermatologist. Unfortunately, there is no remedy for white hair, but you can try using hair dyes to cover them up.

White tiny spots appeared on the penis. No need to worry - these are Fordyce spots. They are common and harmless, small oil glands on the skin. If not bothering, leave them alone. But if feel concerned or uncomfortable, see a dermatologist for advice.

If the bikini line rash goes away in a day with a steroid cream it probably is not an STD but maybe psoriasis. Please, go to a dermatologist for checkup and appropriate treatment.
