Is my large red bump with black point cancerous?
I got a bump on my finger, it's pretty large, redish in colour, round and it has a small black point in the middle, it doesn't hurt or itch but it looks concerning. I don't know exactly when it got there but it's been less than 2 months. When i asked Mr Google, it obviously showed me cancer-related links like always haha, i don't usually take Google seriously but the thing is cancer runs in my family and my grandma is a triple-cancer survivor, including skin cancer, i'm also a smoker and i enjoy tanning during the summer, which adds to the problem. Should i be concerned or is it just medical anxiety and it's only a normal bump?

The bump on your finger could be a common situation called a wart. Warts are mostly painless and can sometimes have a black dot in the center. They are due to a virus which is not usually dangerous. But, if you are in doubt, the best thing is to get a dermatologist to check it.

Body heat too much in summer And borning sensation in feet it leads to body tiredness
Female | 26
When summer arrives, heat often causes burning feet. Our body attempts to cool itself, leading to fatigue. Inflamed nerves likely trigger burning feet. To find relief, rest frequently, and chill feet in cold water. If discomfort persists, visit your dermatologist.

I am 18 years old . I am having excessive hair loss for past 2 months . I was stressful due to exams in the 2 months and my periods have also been delayed. I am not under any medications . I have dandruff for more than 2 years by now
Female | 18
It sounds like you have been experiencing a lot of stress recently due to your exams, and this can sometimes lead to hair loss and delayed periods. Dandruff can also contribute to hair loss. It's important to manage your stress levels, eat a balanced diet, and use a gentle anti-dandruff shampoo. If the hair loss continues, it's a good idea to talk to a dermatologist for further advice.

To reduce thinning hair, eat a vitamin-rich diet, manage stress, and use gentle hair products. Excessive heat styling should be avoided. Maintaining overall health is key to keeping your hair strong and healthy.

Hello! I have fair white skin and I got sunburned at the beach really bad, I have a fever, shivers and I am vomiting. I cannot sleep out of pain and I do not know what’s happening to me. Is this sun poisoning? No alcohol No pregnancy No medical history
Female | 29
It appears you might have a severe sunburn, exhibiting signs of sun poisoning. When you experience an intense sunburn, sun poisoning can occur. Fever, chills, vomiting, and severe discomfort are symptoms. Ensure adequate hydration, cool your skin with compresses and take pain relievers if necessary. Seek shade and avoid sun exposure until you recover. If the problem persists, visit a dermatologist.

I have acne spots and darkspots on my face form 2 years can i use azelic acid if I can then how much percent
Female | 18
Dealing with acne spots and dark spots on your face for two years is frustrating. Consider using azelaic acid: safe for most people. A 10% concentration is effective. It reduces acne breakouts and fades discoloration. Use it daily by applying a thin layer after cleansing. Complement with sunscreen and moisturizer.

I’m a 25 year old male who just noticed a purple like bruise on the foreskin of my penis shaft is this just a bruise or should I get it checked
Male | 25
The purple bruise on your penis could have been caused by many things. Sometimes it happens after an injury or from too much pressure. It could also be a burst blood vessel or a condition that affects blood vessels. Keep an eye on it. If it doesn’t go away or if there is any pain associated with it or any other symptoms occur, then you should see a dermatologist just to be safe.

I have tiny dots on my testicles
Male | 17
Noticing small spots or bumps on your scrotum can be concerning, but there’s no need to panic. These might be harmless. They could be little blood vessels called angiokeratomas lying close to the skin's surface. Sometimes there’s no need to do anything about these spots. You should see a dermatologist if they are itchy, painful, or annoying.

I have a thin hair it cause more hair loss what I do
Female | 21
It is a common thing to be worried about baldness. Minimum amounts of hair may be a symptom of it. The main causes are genetic and some health problems. Symptoms include more hair left on brushes or in the shower to the extent of brushing. Along with these, eat a balanced diet, treat your hair with care, and stress management to help. Also, treatments such as minoxidil can be beneficial.

Is it okay to use the candidiasis tablet when I am still a virgin,will I be affected on any way
Female | 23
Using a yeast infection tablet is fine if you're a virgin. Yeast infections are common. They can make you itchy and irritated, with a thick, white discharge. The tablet kills the yeast causing the infection. It's safe to use and won't hurt you. Follow the directions on the packaging, and you'll feel better soon.

Female | 29
Lupus can lead to redness, rashes, and sensitivity to light. Safeguard your skin from the sun, as sunlight can bring on lupus flare-ups. Use light skincare products and moisturizing cream to replenish your skin frequently. If the symptoms continue, talk to a dermatologist. They could suggest particular treatments to aid in the management of your skin disorder.

Iam 20 year female. I have a burned scar on my cheeks. Is there any remedy to cure and leave the scar as soon as possible?
Female | 20
Injuries can be the result of heat, chemicals, or sun exposure. Until then, keep the area clean and do not scratch it. The application of aloe vera or honey can help to relieve the scar. With time, it will become less noticeable, but be careful as scars are slow to vanish. It is not enough to wear a hat in the sun, make sure you also avoid getting darkened by it.

I have face problem . Redness on my cheeks Hot sensation Small colour less pimple appear Itchy skin Dry patchess on skin Can I calamine lotion for these problems?
Female | 24
This appears to be eczema, a common skin condition. The redness of the skin, a feeling of warmth, colorless pus spots, itching, and dry patches are all symptoms of eczema. Calamine lotion can help relieve the itching but will not treat the cause. Use a mild moisturizer to hydrate the skin and avoid anything that might irritate it. If your symptoms do not improve, you must see a dermatologist for further assistance.

You may have a hernia. This occurs when internals are pushed through a weak part in a muscle. Although there is no pain now, it should be examined by a doctor. They may advise treatment such as an operation to repair the damage and avoid further problems.

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.
