Answered on 5th Sept '24
A cyst is an enclosed sac filled with fluid. It forms under the skin as a lump. Cysts may feel tender, and they grow slowly over time. Doctors should examine unusual bumps to identify them. Most cysts are harmless, but removal might help if it bothers you or keeps growing. If it doesn't cause issues, leaving it alone is also okay. However, getting it checked by a dermatologist provides peace of mind.

I am a 16 year boy, I am having issues in the areas near my penis. My thighs and upper part of penis, I can see some rashes of red colour and severe itching when in contact with water. I have another problem in my penis. My lower part of penis has some white pimple like lines all around and is it normal or something else. I have a 16cm penis is it ok for me.
Male | 16
The red rashes accompanied by intense itching can be a sign of fungal infection or irritation. Fordyce spots, which are harmless, could be what the white pimple-like lines on the lower part of your penis are. Use OTC antifungal cream on the rash and ensure the area remains dry and clean. If your symptoms persist, visit a dermatologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

Hi, I have some pimples on the skin of my penis. What would those be? And how can I get rid of them? I can attach photos Thanks
Male | 24
Pimples on the penis often arise due to folliculitis or genital warts. These can cause discomfort, redness, and swelling. To treat, keep the area clean and dry. Avoid tight clothing. Don't pop the pimples. If symptoms worsen or persist, see a dermatologist. They can properly diagnose the issue and provide treatment.

I have a white patch something in my inner cheek of. Mouth above the wisdom tooth.. Which is cured before but suddenly it appears again
Male | 21
Your cheek area near the wisdom tooth might have a white patch. It could be oral thrush, a fungal infection. Thrush may return if treatment is incomplete, or your immunity is low. To get it resolved, you'll need proper medication from a dentist.

Please I haven’t been able to sleep properly or walk properly since two days And recently it’s gone worse I have a very very painful burning sensation that I feel on my scrotum and it is due to using that podophylin cream This pain is worse and unbearable I can’t move, I can’t lay down properly I can’t walk…please give me something for this pain
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.

Hi i have xanthelasma marks on upper eye lid, is it possible to get rid off and max how many sitting are required
Female | 27
Xanthelasma - those small yellow spots appearing on eyelids. Not dangerous, just annoying. Blame it on high cholesterol levels. To get rid of them, a dermatologist can remove xanthelasma using lasers or freezing treatments. The number of sessions depends on how bad those pesky marks are. But before anything, talk to a dermatologist about the best way to treat your xanthelasma.

Hey, I'm 21 I have a wound and it feels bad. It's infected maybe. What can I do?
Male | 21
You may have a cut that has bacteria in it. Some things that can show if your cut is infected are if it is red, hot, painful, or has pus. Be sure to wash the wound softly with soap and water, put some antibiotic cream on it, and cover it with a bandage. Keep an eye on it and go to a doctor if it gets worse.

Hi doc, I have an added areola around my nipples it's not dark in color it's just a light brownish thing with some little hairs that are growing, I went on my periods fully, but they came early because of the emergency pill I used. I then took two pregnancy tests after seeing the change in my breasts and they were all negative I'm curious now what could cause the change
Female | 24
The emergency pill can cause hormonal changes, and this might result in breast changes such as an extra areola that is light brown with some hairs. Even if the pregnancy tests are negative, there could still be hormonal fluctuations leading to variations in breasts. Most likely, it is nothing serious and will return to normal soon. Watch out for it but if you are worried about anything then feel free to ask a doctor for advice.

Female | 25
It is suggested to consult a dermatologist on the development of dark spots on the skin even when using sunscreen. A dermatologist will have a look at your skin and determine the necessary treatment to be executed. They also can manage other problems such as low vitamin D3 levels and allergies to hay fever.

My husband took 20mg of Certrizan at once! For his allergies, will it harm him?
Male | 50
Among the side effects of taking 20mg of Certrizan this is one. Some symptoms can be drowsiness, dizziness, dry mouth, and a headache. The most common reason such a condition occurs is the high dose. It's better to take the daily dose prescribed which is usually 10mg. Your husband should know that drinking lots of water and resting is the best way to recover. If no improvement is observed or if the side effects are becoming more severe find help from a dermatologist.

Sir face per fungal infection mark ha uska solution btaye
Male | 24
Patches can appear discolored when a fungus infects facial skin. Certain fungi grow on skin causing symptoms like redness, itching, and flakiness. Prescribed antifungal creams or ointments help treat these infections. Keeping infected areas clean and dry assists effective treatment. Although not severe, fungal infections can leave marks if untreated. Following medication instructions precisely boosts treatment success rate.

I am 29 years old female suffering from ringworm/ bacterial scalp infection. I have consulted family doctor. He suggested flucolab -150 and some other medicine too. I am worried about hair fall and bald patches on skin. Please recommend shampoo to reduce redness and infection
Female | 29
Bacterial infection and ringworm are two different things. Ringworm is fungal infection that presents rings generally over the areas where there is more sweating like thigh area, under the breast or armpit area and that is to be treated by anti-fungal medication for long time like 1-2 months. Bacterial infection is the one which is present with the puss and boils and has to be treated with antibiotics. Fungal infection on the scalp is very uncommon in adults and its only a problem of pre-school children. Proper diagnosis is required for the treatment to work. Consult a dermatologist for the same.

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?
Female | 19
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.

I had very active warts on my mouth and I got pRP with micro Needling. And I have taken two sessions of this .But I did not notice any difference in it. Can you tell me after how many months does the result of Micro Medlining with PRT appear properly on the face?
Female | 22
You have been using PRP with micro-needling on your active warts on the mouth but have not seen any results yet. Warts are often obstinate and require a long time to disappear. Generally speaking, the treatment can take up to 6 months of regular sessions to begin showing results. Keep going to your sessions and be patient. If you don't see improvement after a few more sessions, talk to a dermatologist.

There are numerous reasons for pigmentation on the face, such as sun damage, hormonal changes or trauma. It is treatable if diagnosed by a dermatologist correctly. I recommend that you see a dermatologist who deals with hyperpigmentation. They can advise you on the best treatment option, whether it is topical creams, chemical peels or lasers, based on the severity of your condition.

I got lightly scratched by a stray cat. It did draw blood. I made sure to clean ot properly and use anti-bacterial cloth. Do I need to see a doctor or are there any symptoms to be aware of?
Male | 23
Cats can scratch, and it happens. You've cleaned it properly, which is great. However, keep an eye out for signs of infection, like redness, swelling, warmth, or increasing pain near the scratch. If you notice any of these, see a doctor right away.

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.
