Should I worry about sore open bump on breast?
I found a bump on the side of my left breast. When I looked it was an open sore. This is not the first one to appear - but this one is worse, as it is sore to touch. I am planning on seeing a doctor this week. But what do I do?

Answered on 12th Sept '24
Bumps and open sores can be caused by various conditions, from skin infections and cysts to breast cancer. I'm glad you have a doctor's appointment this week. In the meantime, keep the area clean and dry, avoid squeezing or picking at it, and wear loose-fitting clothes. Early detection and treatment save lives, so don’t miss your appointment.

i am 16 years old and having pain in my nose hump for a week and slowly getting harsh. i have discomfort with my nose and feels like a growth in my nose bones and mainly feels moree curvature in my hump day by day. i also have discomfort with my too much droopy tip and my too much crooked nasal bridge
Female | 16
You seem troubled by your nose's condition. A bump might cause nasal pain and growth sensation, making the tip droop, and the bridge appear crooked. Such changes can occur during development. Consulting a dermatologist would clarify the issue and find solutions for your discomfort.

Respected sir, my son name Muhammad Azlan is two years old and has a birth wart on his hips2
Male | 2
Warts are common in kids and are not bad. The wart on your son's hip has a virus called HPV that enters the skin through a tiny cut. Warts can feel rough and may bother him if clothes rub against them. To remove the wart, you can try store treatments like salicylic acid patches or see a dermatologist for other ways.

How to remove blade cut mark
Male | 20
To avoid blade cut marks, a new wound should be kept clean and properly covered to minimize scars. When healed, apply scar treatment cream or silicon gel sheets regularly to reduce the appearance of scars. Do not expose the scar to sunlight because the UV rays darken it. For more severe or prominent scars it is necessary to refer them to the dermatologist for professional treatments such as laser therapy and microdermabrasion. For the situations with deep scarring, sometimes a cosmetic revisional surgery might be an option but it is always best to seek advice from a dermatologist on individual basis.

I think I have herpes what should I do
Male | 22
Herpes is a common virus. It causes itchy, painful sores. These blisters often appear around your mouth or private parts. You can get it through close contact. Herpes may seem bad, but doctors can give you antiviral medicine. Using protection during sex helps prevent spreading it too. Good hygiene habits are also key.

I have skin tags on my perineum
Female | 27
Skin tags near the perineum are generally innocuous. They resemble small protrusions of skin. Friction and rubbing of the skin causes their formation. At times, itchiness or bleeding may occur if irritated. If they cause discomfort, a doctor can readily remove them safely. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness of the area can prevent further development.

It is advisable to take the help of a dermatologist who deals with skin conditions and works to provide an accurate diagnosis and the right treatment. Do not use over-the-counter drugs, or self-medicate. They may worsen the condition.

I have sore in the tip of glans of pennis
Male | 17
This might be due to many factors such as infections or irritation. Common signs and symptoms consist of redness, pain, and at times discharge. It is important to keep the area clean and dry. Using mild soap and avoiding strong chemicals could be helpful. If it does not get better, consult with an urologist.

Hello doctor I have 2 marks on my nose earlier it was small and light but Now they are dark and big , and I really want to remove them. So kindly give me advice they look really very bad.
Female | 37
We need to see picture of the marks and we need to know the reason behind marks if it's previous chicken pox or accident or any infection. Based on location sometimes we might remove them or sometimes we might give some sufficient filling part or we have TCA peel so we need to decide based on depth location and reason behind marks. Please share the pictures. You can also visit plastic surgeon near your area.

Male | 41
Liquid leaking from red ears often signals infection. This ailment frequently arises after swimming or incomplete ear drying. Accompanying symptoms comprise auditory issues and aching sensations. However, if discomfort persists, visit an ENT specialist.

mera white spot hua hai but color utna white nhi hai thik hone me kitna time lagega
Male | 28
Depending on what you are describing, it may be a type of skin disorder called vitiligo. With vitiligo, the cells that make the pigment in the skin are destroyed through the melanocyte process, thereby producing white spots on the skin. It is always best to book an appointment with a dermatologist.

Persistent Sweating in hand palm
Female | 21
Excessive palm sweating happens. Sometimes it comes from stress or hot weather. Sometimes, a medical issue causes it. Some people sweat more than others; that's okay. Using hand antiperspirants helps. Also, you could ask a dermatologist about treatments.

I am facing acne problem on my face as well as they are leaving marks on face.
Female | 28
Acne is a skin condition characterized by red pimples or “zits”. These occur when hair follicles are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. The swollen and tender pimples may or may not have pus. Mild washing of the face with a gentle cleanser is recommended. Over-the-counter acne treatment creams or gels can help address the issue, too. A dermatologist can offer more advice on dealing with such skin problems if they are a source of concern for you.

I am 27 years old and yesterday I just did fat burner on my double chin and nose thread. Today my face swelling so bad. I couldn’t even open my mouth properly. My beautician gave me 2 types of medication. She ask me to take this medication to reduce swelling : 3 tablets of beazyme and 2 capsules of amoxicillin (0.5g) consume at once. Is this okay to take this dose at the same time?
Female | 27
Swelling after such procedures can be explained by the human body's natural reaction to the treatment. The doses your beautician recommended are likely to be too high to take at once. It is very important to schedule the doses of the medicine at the proper time and take only what is prescribed by a doctor to lower the chances of any complications. If the swelling stays the same or worsens, go to a dermatologist.

Does wound sting if you put a NaCL?
Female | 18
If you put salt (NaCl) on a cut it may hurt a bit. The reason for this is that salt is able to kill germs. Therefore if you rub salt in a wound it will only be painful temporarily. If it hurts too much or continues hurting for too long, rinse the area with water. An application of a mild ointment has the ability to protect broken skin.

My jockitch has been a month though I used over the counter antifungal but it doest seem effective. Any prescription?
Male | 25
You likely have a persistent jock itch case. This condition results from fungus thriving in warm, damp regions like the groin area. Over-the-counter antifungal creams often help, yet some cases prove resistant. To effectively eliminate the fungus, I suggest consulting a dermatologist for prescription-strength antifungal medication.

Swelling and burning sensation behind pennis head area also small wounds there
Male | 36
It seems to me that you might have a condition known as balanitis. This is a term used when there is some swelling, burning and small sores on the skin behind the head of the penis (foreskin). Tight clothing or poor hygiene can lead to this. Try washing gently with warm water and mild soap. Avoid wearing tight clothes and keep the area dry. If it does not improve then see a urologist who will probably prescribe medicine for it.
