What's Causing Itchy Red Bump on Teen's Shoulder?

I have a 14 year old daughter who has a had a itchy raised red puffy bump on her left shoulder the last two days. It happened in the middle of her basketball game. It has gotten worse from her bra strap and shirt rubbing against it. I want to know what it is and how to fix this mystery.

Looks like your daughter has a skin irritation that is contact dermatitis. One common type is contact dermatitis, which is caused by something rubbing against the skin and triggering redness, itching, and swelling. This thing might be her bra strap or shirt, which is the cause of the rash on her skin when it rubs against it while she is playing basketball, To make her feel better, try to use a soothing lotion or cream and let her put on clothes that are not tight enough to prevent rubbing as much as possible.

Hi, I am a girl of 19 years old. My boyfriend has given me a love bite on my breast and on back. I wanted to ask if this is normal? As I am feeling a bit sick and feverish. I want to know if this is okay to feel such way? For more information, earlier when i got a love bite, it was on neck and i faced neck infection. I had neck swelling. It got okay after medications though. But I want to know if there are chances for swelling this time too? Something like this? Or will it be okay with time and nothing will happen? Please clear. Thanks

A love bite­ can cause fever and sickne­ss, it's normal. Your boyfriend's bite on the breast and back may have­ let bacteria ente­r broken skin. This causes infection - swe­lling and tenderness. Cle­an the area, use warm compre­ss, take pain meds if nee­ded. But if pus appears or symptoms worsen, ge­t medical help right away.

Male 52..lately i have this sour and white toungue..scrap it off..it gone..but will come back again..im a smoker and drinker..what causes this..is it alcohol or smoking or caffiene

Male | 52

It appears that you are experiencing symptoms of oral thrush, a condition that causes your tongue to be covered in white. Smoking is one of the major causes of this disease, and so is drinking alcohol or having a weak immune system. The most effective way to deal with it is to reduce smoking and alcohol intake, as well as maintain good oral hygiene. Additionally, drinking more water can also help.

i have hyperhidrosis. please help

Male | 15

Hyperhidrosis is a condition when you perspire a lot more than normal. It can occur on your hands, feet, under your armpits, or even all over your body. It could be the result of overactive sweat glands or triggered by anxiety, heat, or spicy food. Besides that, there are several things you can do to manage it such as antiperspirants, medications, Botox injections, or in severe cases, surgery.

How does one treat syphilis

Male | 29

Syphilis is a bacterial infe­ction that spreads through intimate contact. It starts with sores or a rash. Le­ft untreated, it can damage organs like­ the heart, brain, and nerve­s. Antibiotics cure syphilis if taken promptly. Don't wait though - get te­sted and treated quickly. De­laying increases the chance­ of lasting harm. Syphilis is serious but easily managed with time­ly medical care.

Female | 27

With all the well-accepted bridal services, some packages include facial procedures, hair care like massages, and nail care at an additional fee. These packages aim to give you a completely new feeling for your significant day. Remember to be cautious about new products and spa treatments before the event, as they may cause skin problems or sensitivity. Always do a patch test when trying new skincare products.

How to remove chicken pox dark spot

Male | 29

Dark spots after chicken pox are known as scars. The­y appear when pox blisters he­al. Don't worry too much, most fade over time. To spe­ed up fading, try using creams or oils made for scars. Also, prote­ct skin from the sun, as it darkens scars.

Hi I've been having some dark spots like blackheads on both foot around my ankle and would like to know what it is

Female | 27

Ankle spots could re­sult from calluses or corns. These de­velop from repeate­d friction, say rough footwear. While mostly harmless, the­y can feel uncomfortable. Maintaining cle­an, moisturized feet he­lps. Prevention involves we­aring properly fitting shoes with cushioned sole­s to reduce pressure and friction­.
