Male | 37
Your talking about alopecia areata. Main line of treatment for alopecia areata is local and intralesional steroids. Oral and local immunosuppressant are also very effective. Pls try for TOFACITINIB 5MG TWICE A DAY AFTER FOOD. Reach out to me or any dermatologist for further evaluation and second opinion - Dermatologists in India.

Testicles skin got red and full burning
Male | 32
Your testicles feel red and burning. That's very uncomfortable. It could be balanitis - swelling of the skin. Poor hygiene, germs, or irritants can cause it. Keep the area clean, dry, and wear loose underwear. Avoid harsh products. If it doesn't get better, see a dermatologist for help and treatment.

Hello Sir! Around last two years, i am experiencing experiencing excessive sweating on my body as well as face. Few months ago, i checked up for thyroid test that was normal. Further my blood pressure was checked up which was 130/76. How can it be reduced to normal conditions?
Male | 23
Excessive sweating, also known as hyperhidrosis, on the other hand, can arise from a large number of causes like anxiety, hormonal fluctuations even certain medications. Your thyroid and blood pressure readings are normal so we should move on to other causes like stress or diet. Keep your body cool, use breathable fabrics, and don't forget about relaxation techniques like deep breathing or yoga, and you will reduce sweating. If it gets worse, you should talk to the doctor about it first.

Male | 27
It appears as though you possibly have an extremely bad allergic reaction on your podophylin cream. I suggest that you go to a dermatologist immediately for an assessment and treatment.

I have do a operation 2 years a go they cut of the skin around the penis head and the skin fall down the head.
Male | 53
You may have a condition called penile adhesions, where skin at the top of the penis sticks to the head, causing discomfort and interfering with urination. Treatment usually involves a simple procedure to release the skin. Don’t leave it untreated—consult a dermatologist if you suspect this condition.

i have pigmentation patches on my face since last 3 years. my treatment was run last 3 years but the still the condition are equal. what can i do.
Female | 28
Those pigmented areas on your face for the past three years must be showing literally on your skin because they are probably highly noticeable. Melasma is a condition that can be brought about by exposure to sunlight, hormonal changes, or a person's genes. Since your last treatment did not manage the condition, see a dermatologist.

I took two pills of Isotroin 20 two days ago. Could that cause a delay in my period? My period is actually 7 days late. What should I do?
Female | 27
The Isotroin 20 medicine shouldn't be a reason for a woman to have a late period. Nevertheless, anxiety, alterations in your routine, or some other medications could be responsible. Sometimes, missing a period is okay and it's not a reason for worry. If you have been late for your period for a long time, it is a good idea to take a pregnancy test. If you see other strange symptoms or your period is late for a long time, think about going to your gynecologist for a checkup.

I am a 37 year old female and have cellulitis. I’ve been on antibiotics for a little over 36 hours but the pain is getting worse. The rash doesn’t seem to be spreading but it’s getting harder and darker
Female | 36
Cellulitis is a skin infection that may exhibit symptoms such as redness, swellings, and pains. Sometimes, it might even make you look more like a bruiser before getting better. The treatment needs a bit of mystery, so it would be wise to give it a little time before you see the full effects. You should not forget to take them at the prescribed time and also be sure to drink enough water. If the pain becomes unbearable or you notice any other alarming symptoms, you should contact a dermatologist.

I'm 68 years old, I have rashesh
Male | 68
The rashes are an external factor of the skin and can appear as if they are caused by itchy skin or red-bumpy skin. They can be triggered by things like allergies, infections, or skin disorders. For the sake of cleanness, let your skin be clean and dry. Also, make use of mild moisturizers. If it's not getting any improvement, it's better to refer to a dermatologist.

Female | 16
A troublesome ear infection is what you're saying. The pus and clear goop coming out, the hard lumps, and the pain, are examples of a serious issue. The infection could have gone into your ear cartilage and therefore caused the swelling and rawness. A visit to a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis is a must as some antibiotics may be prescribed to kill the infection and prevent further complications.

Underarms infection Erythrasma
Female | 22
Erythrasma is an underarm infection. Red or brown patches appear on the skin. The skin might feel itchy or uncomfortable. A certain bacteria causes the infection. It thrives in warm, moist areas like the armpits. To treat Erythrasma, keep the affected area dry. Use antibiotic creams as directed. Practice good hygiene by bathing regularly. These steps can help clear up the infection quickly and effectively.

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.

Good morning I have acne marks problems ...and I tried many of the oilments home remedies etc ..but I couldn't get any result..there is a black spot on face due to pimple so if you suggest any oilment for it.it might be helpful
Female | 23
If its only acne marks, continuing your acne treatment with facewash and gels will improve it. Some topical agents also helps in removing the pigmentation and marks of the acne. Even Salic acid 20% gel at night on spots is helpful. Glyco 6 or Glycolic acid 6% is recommended for application on the face. Acne compatible sunscreen is also helpful. Chemical Peeling with glycolic acid or salicylic acid is useful

1) I want to know why about 200 hairs are falling every day while combing. 2) And one more thing, about 80-90 hairs are falling every day without combing the hair. whenever i put my hand in my hair its about 5-6 hairs comes in my hand.if i don't put my hand in my hair even than after also some hairs are falls on my t shirt. Please tell me why it's happening? Is it serious problem or not?
Female | 20
Yet, losing around 200 shed hairs just while combing, and subsequently losing more during the day can denote an accompanying issue. Elements like stress, hormonal changes, problems with nutrition, or scalp conditions might cause this. I advise you to rethink your nutrition, take care of stress, and make use of appropriate hair care daily. If the condition remains unchanged, a dermatologist is the right step to get the exact cause and a personalized remedy.

If the dark circles are not responding to the creams That means that they might be due to the loss of tissue or hollowness of the eyes and that can be corrected with under-eye fillers. You can contact the dermatologist for the same.

Male | 25
Scars are a reminder of where the skin was damaged, and they can be stubborn. You've tried various methods, but they didn't completely clear your scars. Each person is unique, and treatments work differently for everyone. It's important to follow your dermatologist's guidance. Scars fade slowly, so don't lose hope.

It's been a week since i started experiencing itching around my genital area. Gradually, I also started experiencing pain in the penis and there are visible marks that have started appearing. Also, i feel the urge to urinate more frequently than usual.
Male | 23
It sounds like you might be suffering from a urinary tract infection, which is an unlikely condition where bacteria have been introduced to your pee area causing trouble. It may make you feel itchy, and painful during your urination, and even give you a constant urge to urinate more frequently. Consult a dermatologist for proper treatment

I feel itching all over my body and the rashes disappear suddenly after few minutes and again appears after few hours
Female | 17
You may have a medical condition known as hives. They usually cause an itchy rash that comes and goes within a couple of minutes. They are sometimes caused by allergies, stress, or infections. Over-the-counter antihistamines and triggering agent avoidance, like certain foods or products, can help with the itching. If hives are still there or getting worse, a visit to dermatologist would be good.
