Keloids are bumpy scars that can appear after getting piercings. They may look like a bump and be itchy or painful. For at-home treatment, silicone gel sheets or pressure earrings can be applied to the area to help with flattening it. These keloids can be sure of your keloid's size. Remember to clean the piercing well to avoid infection. If it doesn't get better, you might have to visit a dermatologist.

I have blister on chest back and underarm on right side
Male | 23
Blisters on the chest, back, and underarms can come up for various reasons, namely, friction, allergic reactions, or infections. In most cases, these fluid-filled bubbles indicate that your skin is reacting to something irritating or stressing it. To encourage healing, keep the area dry and do not pop the blisters. Loose clothing is helpful to get rid of more irritation. Still, if you see more than the typical skin reactions, increased redness, swelling, or pain, then you should consult a dermatologist for further treatments.

In my back acne and itching
Male | 32
Back acne occurs when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells, leading to bumps on the skin. This condition can be worsened by sweating or wearing tight clothes. The itchiness is often due to irritation caused by the acne. To manage back acne, try using a mild cleanser and avoid wearing tight clothing. Use oil-free lotions and refrain from scratching your skin, this can worsen the condition.

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.

Male | 24
The condition known as Fordyce spots may be what you are going through. The spots are of no concern, small white or yellowish bumps that can develop on the penis. They are often not itchy or painful and may sometimes release a white discharge when popped. Fordyce spots are normal and usually, no treatment is needed. But if you are worried, it is best to consult a dermatologist for more check-ups.

You Suggest Me that i can get cleanup on face because I am teenager
Male | 19
Most youngsters need a face cleanup. When you see that your pores are clogged, whether it is blackheads, or pimples, the cause of these things can be either dirt, bacteria, or skin oil production. Aside from that, do not forget to cleanse your face twice a day with a mild oil-free cleanser, to make your face glow and not raise the probability of skin infection, use a face moisturizer and do not keep touching your face.

My doctor prescribed me a sylicylic acid and glycolic acid facewash I have dry and pimple skin I have used this product and it clear my skin but after some time I again got pimples
Female | 27
The salicylic and glycolic acid facewash cleared pimples at first, but they returned later. These acids sometimes dry out the skin too much. This causes more oil production, leading to pimples again. Instead, use a gentle, moisturizing face wash. Be sure to moisturize properly. This keeps skin balanced, hydrated, and prevents more pimple problems.

I have pinpoint small dots all over my cheeks they seem like bumps and acne but I have tried tea tree oil and lemon and nothing works
Female | 17
Sometimes, tiny bumps appear on the skin. It's called milia. They happen when dead skin cells get trapped near the surface. To help get rid of milia, you can try using a gentle exfoliating scrub to remove those dead skin cells. Also, keep your skin clean and moisturized - that's important. If the problem doesn't go away, consider seeing a dermatologist for further advice on dealing with it.

Circles are small, hard bumps that occur under the skin. It is formed when the oil and skin cells become trapped and make a small pocket. Sometimes, a cyst can develop on your face, and it might feel as hard as a stone. You should consult a dermatologist to examine it and cure it.

Hi i m abhishek (21 year old male) i m experienceing red asymptomatic bruises on penis head after erection and it will disappear in 2-3 days
Male | 21
You’re dealing with might be penile bruises. These are essentially red marks that appear on the tip of your penis after you get an erection and then fade away within a few days. This kind of thing is pretty common and usually not something to worry about. Sometimes they can be caused by rough handling or friction during certain activities. I’d suggest being a bit more careful and seeing if that helps at all. If they keep happening or you’re concerned, it might be a good idea to bring it up with a dermatologist.
