You have got something called eczema. Eczema can be described as tiny scabs on the skin. One of the most essential precautions you can take is to cleanse and moisturize the area regularly. Don't scratch yourself too much because it can lead to an infection. You can try using a gentle moisturizer to see if it helps. If the scabs don't improve or you see any new symptoms, it's best to go to a dermatologist for further advice.

Body pain and a black face could signal ane­mia - not enough red blood cells. Ane­mia makes you tired, pale, and achy. Eating iron-rich foods he­lps: spinach, beans, meat. Drink lots of water, re­st well too. See a doctor if it doe­sn't improve.

Greetings sir my daughter is four years old she was some what black with your suggestion I want her for skin whitening treatment which one is permanent for her chemical peel or Laser treatment please suggest me sir

Female | 4

Neither of these treatments is recommended for children under the age of 18. Chemical peels and laser treatments are not permanent skin whitening treatments. These treatments can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots, but they will not permanently lighten the skin.

I did surgery on Keloid on my back but the wound is not healing fast. Please what do should I do to stop the keloid from growing back again.

Male | 43

A keloid is when the skin grows too much after an injury has healed. They may feel itchy or painful. You could use silicone sheets or gel over the wound to stop it from growing back. Additionally, ask your physician about corticosteroid injections which can help flatten the keloid.

I face chicken pox disease from last 3 days and now I feel hot after taking fever medicine

Female | 17

After taking fever medicine, it usually happens that a person feels to be hot. Chickenpox is a virus that causes the manifestation of itchiness all around the body with red spots that turn into blisters. Fever, headache, and tiredness are the most common symptoms. Always remember to drink plenty of fluids to keep your body hydrated. Calamine lotion is useful in alleviating itching. Plenty of rest is essential.

I am 22 female. I have itchy pimples on my upper arm and back for the past 2 weeks. I have taken allergex. What could be the cause of this?

Female | 22

You may be suffering from a skin problem called acne. Acne is a consequence of hair follicles being blocked by too much oil and dead skin cells on your skin. Consequently, the skin can become red and itchy and pimples can occur. Allergies or some particular products may also aggravate acne. The best method to clear up the skin is to use gentle non-comedogenic cleaning products and keep your skin clean to the maximum.
