I have a red bump on my leg and it looks like a bug bite. I just want to ask you if it’s venenous and if I should see a doctor. It itches me a lot and it’s red

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.

Female | 21
These problems can be attributed to hormonal imbalances or skin conditions. Good skincare practices, like using and maintaining a moisturizing product, will help to address the problem. You can consider hair removal methods as well. Eating a balanced diet and drinking water can also improve skin health. If these methods do not give positive results, then it is advisable to consult a dermatologist.

Acne par kya lagyai moon glow cream laga saktai
Female | 15
Acne forms when pores get blocked with oil and dead cells. Pimples, blackheads, whiteheads appear. Moon glow cream may not work well. Cream ingredients might make acne worse. Use gentle products for acne-prone skin instead. Not all creams suit acne. Choose carefully.

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.

I'm a 21 year old male I have small white patches on the top of my penis along with some red dots and the urethra is inflamed as well as the foreskin and a slight burning sensation when peeing as well as frequent urination and a clear discharge
Male | 21
You might have a condition called balanitis. This issue occurs when the penis' foreskin becomes inflamed and red, and, in some cases, white patches can appear. The burning of the urine and the clear discharge may also be the result of this. Balanitis may occur due to hygiene issues, infections, or skin problems. Wash the area regularly and dry it, not use soaps that are too harsh, and prefer loose clothing. If the symptoms continue, a dermatologist can give medicine to make them go away.

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.

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.

I have warts problem and I want to know how to remove this from my system.
Male | 31
Warts are skin growths caused by a virus. They appear on hands, feet, and elsewhere. Bumpy, with black dots. Usually painless, but bothersome. Try over-the-counter medicated patches or freezing sprays to remove. If those fail, see a dermatologist. They offer prescription meds or procedures to remove stubborn warts.

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.

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.

Hi , pimple marks can be treated by using topical creams containing retinoids, vitamin C or glycolic acids . One should also strive to follow a good skincare regimen and not squeeze their pimples.

What is the best treatment for vitiligo? Benifit between Pototherapy or oral medication for vitiligo treatment
Female | 27
Vitiligo makes your skin lose color in patches. Cells that produce pigment stop functioning, leading to white spots. Treatment choices are phototherapy and medicines. Phototherapy uses light to restore pigmentation. Oral medications help regain skin color. A dermatologist can recommend treatment after assessing your condition. Phototherapy and medication are effective options. Discuss with your doctor to choose the right approach.

Hi i am facing hair fall problem can i take keraboots tablet
Female | 21
Hair loss is a big problem for many people and the causes can be different like stress, bad nutrition, or hormonal imbalance. Keraboots tablets potentially can mitigate your hair fall issue as they are filled with the vitamins you are missing out on. However, proper nutrition which includes a well-balanced diet and caring for your hair should be the foundation of a healthy lifestyle. If the problem still does not go away, it is wise to talk to a dermatologist for more guidance.

I am suffering from fungal infection since last 6 months. I got relief for few days from the cream which I had bought from the chemist shop. Then this work is done properly. I asked a doctor and took Fluconazole medicine for two-four days, it did not make much difference, still it is itching a lot, so please suggest me some cream or medicine which can help in this problem. The problem should be eliminated from its roots
Male | 16
Some over the counter creams can ease the pain temporarily, they are usually not persistent enough to eradicate the infection. You should visit a dermatologist they will be able to diagnose the particular fungi and prescribe medication like antifungal creams or oral medication such as terbinafine and itraconazole.

I am a 15 year old girl. I have a huge amount of red spots underneath my skin near the inner right thing and in my vaginal pubes. It has been spreading and ongoing for about three days now. And as of today it’s been feeling kinda itchy.
Female | 15
You could have a condition on your skin called folliculitis. This happens when bacteria infect hair follicles. The affected area may have red spots, itching, or tenderness. To relieve yourself from these signs, use warm compresses on the place and make sure it is clean. If this does not improve or if the fever develops then you need to see a dermatologist who will evaluate further and give treatment.

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.
