Bug bites ofte­n cause red, itchy spots. Most aren't dange­rous, but seek medical he­lp if symptoms worsen. Bites can sometime­s trigger fever or swe­lling. To relieve itchine­ss, apply a cold compress or anti-itch cream. Howeve­r, if the bite area e­nlarges, causes pain, or you deve­lop fever, it's wise to consult a dermatologist.

I have recurrent canker sores for the past 6 months, taken antibiotics and oral care but it keep coming. Please what could be the cause

Male | 34

The pesky thing is recurrent canker sores. They are small, shallow sores in your mouth. A stressor, weakness of the immune system, and certain foods can provoke them. Genetic predisposition may also be a reason why some folks are more prone to having them. To reduce pain, use over-the-counter ointments or gels that are intended for canker sores. Also, try to sail through stress and eat a healthy diet.

Male | 32

HPV means human papillomavirus. You can’t get it from things like cups, clothes, doors, and keyboards. This virus is often spread through skin-to-skin contact. It can cause warts or even cancer in some cases. The best way to keep yourself safe from this virus is to get the HPV vaccine.

Female | 34

The causes of the cold abscess might include a bacterial infection but tuberculosis is the other explanation. The signs can be a painless lump, the fever, and sometimes sweating at night. It is vital to get a thorough examination and treatment from a doctor who may prescribe antibiotics for a bacterial infection or TB specific medications if needed.

Hi , i am 31 years old.since one week i have a fever blister on right side of upper lip .now that blister cause a wound that is so painful and i feel heat in that wound also itching on sides of wound.can i apply acyclovir on that wound

Female | 31

You may be dealing with a cold sore that’s popped up on your top lip, making it hurt and itch. That’s probably because of a virus called herpes simplex. Acyclovir is a good choice for getting some relief from this. Just use it like they tell you to. Doing this can help you heal better faster and help lessen the signs and symptoms.

Hello I consume ketanzole lotion by mistake 1 teaspoon what should I do

Male | 47

If this did happen, don’t panic too much, as it can occur. Ketoconazole contains an ingredient that can be harmful when ingested. Symptoms such as stomach ache, nausea, or vomiting are likely to occur. If you notice any of these signs, seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, try not to get too worked up about it. Instead, drink plenty of water to help reduce the concentration of the drug in your system.

I have a rash on breast for a year changes slightly recently. No other symptoms

Female | 40

A rash on the breast persisting for a year and showing recent changes should prompt a visit to a dermatologist. While it could be benign, such changes may signify underlying issues like dermatitis, fungal infections, or even rare conditions like Paget's disease of the breast.

I suggest that you go to a dermatologist to have a thorough examination of your mole. One should make sure that other serious conditions are not the cause, such as skin cancer or infection.

I'm 25 years old and I have very old dark mosquito bite marks and scars on arms and legs. Please tell me how to get rid of it and make it fade.

Female | 25

The marks are the result of the body's response to the mosquito's saliva. They may gradually diminish by themselves over time, however, you can also apply over-the-counter creams with ingredients such as hydroquinone or vitamin E that will help in the process. Remember, use sunscreen and cover your skin to avoid more bites.
