Can Getting HIV From Barber Trimmer Cut Happen?
I got the cut from the barber trimmer is it the chance of getting hiv virus from that trimmer ?

Answered on 19th June '24
You are very unlikely to get HIV from a barber trimmer. HIV is not spread by inanimate objects like trimmers but through fluids that carry the virus, such as blood. Look for symptoms such as fever or maybe pimples but always keep in mind the probability of this happening is extremely low.

Hi DR. I am 22 years old. I am very worried because of my hair fall randomly. Even my scalp is completely exposed.I have not taken any medicine yet. What is the solution??
Male | 22
Losing some hair is normal, but if you notice that a lot of hair is falling out and your scalp becomes visible, it is something to be concerned about. Hair can fall due to a variety of things like stress, lack of proper nutrition or genetics. To help yourself out, make sure you eat well-balanced meals, try to reduce stress as much as possible and use mild hair care products – However, if none of these seem working for you then visit a dermatologist.

Hi I am 25 year old I have a scar on right cheek due to pimple,the pimple has gone but it left with a scar
Male | 25
You suffered from a pimple on your cheek that is currently a scar, which is very common. The skin may leave a mark after the healing of a pimple. Whenever skin tries to fix itself these scars form. To make the spot where it is blended with your natural complexion, use remedies such as lotions containing retinol or vitamin C.

Actually i got a little scratch by a street dog’s nail but it’s not deep also so pls recommend me what should i do.. i can also share the pic of it for better suggestion
Female | 17
I can see that scratching you due to a street dog can be a worrying issue for you. From your information, the scratch is not too deep, which may mean there is a low chance of infection. Watch out for any redness, swelling, or warmth around the area. First of all, wash the scratch using soap and water and then apply the antiseptic cream to the area to avoid any further infection. Watch the scratch for a few days, and if you spot any of the infection signs that are getting worse, like more pain, redness, or pus formation, it is better to go to a doctor.

Hi I am a 16 year old male. I have had these 2 bumps on my foreskin I’m just wondering if it is penile cancer. They are whiteish. It doesn’t cause pain or bleeding or anything until a few days ago when I tried to one of them.
Male | 16
Those bumps on your foreskin might be Fordyce spots, not cancer. Fordyce spots are small, whitish-yellow bumps that sometimes show up on genitals. They're harmless, common, and usually painless. You shouldn't pick or pop them. If you're worried, talk to a dermatologist to get checked out. But chances are, it's nothing serious.

I have a sensitive skin and an oily face. The products I use always give me skin problems like skin rashes, dark spots and pigmentation. I have a hot caramel skin. I want to know the best products for my skin
Female | 18
You may have some skin issues that can be tough to deal with. If your skin is sensitive and oily, try using mild products without perfumes. Possibly, dark spots, skin rashes and pigmentation could occur due to irritation caused by harsh components in the product you are using. Go for products labeled as non-comedogenic so that they do not block the pores on your face. Also, look for ingredients like niacinamide or hyaluronic acid that will help calm down and moisturize your skin. Always do a patch test before applying any new product to prevent unexpected reactions.

Ma'am I am 36 now. I have wrinkles and dark circles under my skin. The skin is really looking dull. Can crystal microdermabrasion help to reduce these problems permanently?
Female | 36
Micro-needling Dermabrasion or crystal microdermabrasion somewhat work as wrinkle treatment, but it wont result in dark circle improvement.

Hello! I am 29-year-old female, got stung by a jellyfish on 6th September in my right leg, pain was quite severe, we went to the emergency, I got some painkillers, now I use local and oral antihistamines, but the scars are still there and sometimes there is swelling and itching. No pain anymore. What else should I do? Is local methylprednisolone a good idea? Can I go to the swimming pool and/or run?
Female | 29
Jellyfish stings are common and can leave scars, swelling, and itching even after the pain subsides. Applying antihistamine creams can help with itching and oral antihistamines are recommended for swelling. If symptoms persist, a local methylprednisolone injection may be considered. It's best to avoid swimming and running until the scars heal to prevent further irritation.

I sweat alot from my armpits, even if it's cold, warm or sunny weather there's always water dripping out of my armpits every minute. I'm 19 and I've been experiencing this like forever
Female | 19
You may have a problem with too much sweating, or what some call hyperhidrosis. What happens is your sweat glands become overactive and produce more sweat than is necessary. Sometimes this can be genetic or due to other medical conditions that you have. There’s treatment for this kind of thing – prescription antiperspirants, pills that you take by mouth…even Botox injections. It’s important to see a dermatologist so that they can help figure out what will work best for you.

I am facing a huge hair loss and my hair is thinning. I don't know if it is my local water problem. so please recommend me some tips
Female | 18
Hair loss can be frustrating, and it’s a common issue that many people experience. There are several reasons, including stress, diet, genetics, and certain medical conditions. If water quality isn't the cause, it's important to consider your diet. Reducing stress, using gentle shampoos, and making dietary adjustments may help. However, if hair loss persists, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist who can evaluate underlying health issues.

Really bad odor from the mouth even with good hygiene and the nose why breathing. What's wrong please
Female | 21
Sinus infection could cause it. Blocked sinuses allow odors out when you breathe. Watch for stuffed nose, coughing, and headache too. See a dentist for diagnosis, treatment to clear infection, banish odor.

on Saturday morning I bought some trousers from a second-hand market, and I tried them on there at the market after about 6 hours I noticed some red bumps that scratched my lower leg, there are about 8 red bumps of about 1 cm on the whole leg
Male | 15
Redness and bumps appeared on your leg. It seems like an allergic reaction to materials in those trousers. The red marks could be hives or dermatitis from contact. Wash with gentle soap and water. Cool compresses reduce irritation and swelling. If itchy, antihistamines provide relief. However, if symptoms worsen instead of improving, visit a dermatologist for proper treatment

Female | 21
You may have dyshidrotic eczema. It looks like small blisters on hands, fingers, and feet. Irritants, allergies, or stress cause this condition. Though not itchy, blisters feel painful sometimes. Keep hands and feet cool and dry. Use mild products. Avoid triggers like certain soaps or foods. If it worsens, see a dermatologist.

There is a sudden development of a black coloured lump on my lips . Can you please give me details of this
Male | 52
Several factors can cause black lumps. It's sometimes a self-resolving harmless blood blister that happens when you accidentally bite your lip or something more serious like skin cancer. Anyway, always be alert to the piece of the lump being uncomfortable, bloody, or growing in size. It's better to seek counseling from a physician to be cautious.

Is eliteglo cream is safe or its a steriod cream
Female | 23
Eliteglo Cream is not considered safe due to its ingredient clobetasol, a corticosteroid, which can cause negative effects. Long-term use of steroid creams without medical supervision can thin the skin and lead to stretch marks and other skin conditions. Immediate effects like redness, itching, or burning are common but usually temporary. For personalized advice and safer alternatives, please consult a dermatologist.

I got acne on whole face first there is pimple and it convert into mark or acne . Or having white spot ,uneven tone the texture is very bad like hyperpigmentation.
Female | 23
Pimples occur when oil and dead skin cells block hair follicles thus leading to a condition called acne. The marks are usually a result of inflammation in the skin. Instances that can be white spots and not consistent in color are marks of hyperpigmentation. Be gentle to your skin, do not pick your skin, and use products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.

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.
