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.

Mere gupt bhag me fode aaye the or wo jakhm bhar nahi rahe

Boils are typically triggered by bacteria entering a hair follicle or oil gland. They come up as red, tender lumps filled with pus. Clean the area and apply a warm cloth to help them heal. Don’t try to squeeze or burst them as this can make the infection worse. If this doesn’t work, see a dermatologist.

Hi I have this soft lump on my right sculpar medial soft to touch and sore aching on the top of the soft lump I’m worried what it might me it’s 6cm x1.5 I’m in aching pain all day long at the same location deep inside like a tight knot feeling Can’t sit up for long I’m so worried it could be something very serious
Female | 36
The lymph node could be swollen due to one of your scalp cases or the infection in another part of your body. The sore and aching feeling you are experiencing is because your lymph node is fighting against the infection. Warm compresses and over-the-counter medications or painkillers might help for now. In case it does not get better, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist.

I am a 16 year old girl that had a dull sharp achey pain in the back of my knee that had now come up in a rash
Female | 16
Hypoallergenic A few potential causes of the issue are sunburned skin and allergies. There is another possibility of an infection. Clean and carefully dry the skin. If the rash doesn't heal, a cream that has a mild nature may be used to reduce the itching. In case the pain continues or gets worse, you\'d better seek help from a dermatologist.

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.

Skin infection in lower waist area
Male | 56
A skin infection was likely happening in the lower waist region. These infections happen when bacteria enters tiny cuts or hair follicles. You might notice redness, warmth, pain, and sometimes pus oozing. Keeping that area clean and dry is crucial. An over-the-counter antibiotic cream can help clear the infection. However, if no improvement occurs, visit a dermatologist.

I have diagnosed with pcos l have acne want to cure any medication
Female | 25
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can cause annoying acne breakouts. This hormonal condition disrupts your hormone balance, resulting in skin issues like pimples. However, certain medications may provide relief. A dermatologist could prescribe birth control pills or spironolactone to regulate hormones and clear your complexion. Consistently follow your doctor's treatment plan, and your skin should soon appear smoother.

Hi doc..i have this sour and white taste toungue for few months.scrap it off the next day it comes back..is it due to smoking and alcohol user..i dont have this problem before..ols help
Male | 52
You have a white sour taste in your mouth that won't go away even after scraping it off. According to my experience, this might be caused by smoking or alcohol which irritates the mouth hence this recurring problem. To solve this problem, reduce smoking and taking alcohol. Ensure that your teeth are always clean and don’t forget to scrape your tongue. If this doesn't work out for you then I would advise you to visit a dentist who will further guide you on what to do.

Could scabies spread through me being fully clothed and sleeping in a bed and then someone else using the bed
Female | 20
Yes scabies can be transmitted even when you are fully dressed and lay down in bed. Scabies occurs due to the movement of very small mites that may transfer from one person to another through direct contact or via the exchange of bedding and clothing. If in doubt, and you’re suspicious, that you have scabies, it is advisable to seek the help of a dermatologist

Azreen Ahmed, 8+ yrs old female. Her both feet have cracked of heel, arch and ball from January 2024. we have shown a dermetogist, he prescribed varieties Medicine and ointment. after using It's cured but started again. the baby cannot walk. please advise what should we do now?
Female | 8
A crack in the heel, arch, and ball of the feet can be painful. This can happen due to dry skin or standing for a long period. Make sure she wears the best comfortable shoes that she has. Apply a thick moisturizing cream daily to keep her feet soft and hydrated. Water is super important too. This will assist in stopping the cracks from coming back. Iif she still has the issue after some time, then see a dermatologist for more advice.

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.

Dear Dr I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out regarding my brother's skin condition. He has developed small, lightly red bumps along with some small dry red blemishes on his body, primarily on his torso, hands, and inner thighs. These spots are not itchy or painful, but they have persisted for a while. Could you kindly advise on what the condition might be and recommend the most effective treatment to help him get rid of these spots completely? Thank you very much for your time and expertise. We would appreciate any guidance you can offer. Best regards,
Male | 17
Your brother might be suffering from a skin condition named eczema, or it is known as atopic dermatitis. It is the first step to the development of red bumps and dry, scaly patches on the skin. The development of eczema can be sometimes as a result of dry skin, stress, or allergies. To relieve symptoms, recommend your brother to apply soft moisturizers, avoid soaps that are too strong, cover him with comfortable and breathable clothes. If the problems will continue, seek the advice of a dermatologist.

It seems like you’re feeling a lot of burning. The cause may be a urinary tract infection, what you eat, or even acid reflux. Drink lots of water and stay away from spicy foods. If it doesn’t get better, see a urologist.

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.

Just want to know what kind of problem I’m I suffering from
Female | 23
You may be experiencing a viral fever with a skin rash, a condition known as viral exanthem. The leg pain, swelling, and difficulty walking could indicate inflammation in your joints, which is referred to as viral arthritis. These symptoms are often associated with viral infections like dengue or chikungunya. I recommend getting plenty of rest, staying hydrated, and using over-the-counter pain relievers for relief. If your symptoms worsen or persist for an extended period, it's important to consult a dermatologist.

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.

This could indicate an injury, like something heavy dropped on your toe. Or, it might mean a fungal infection has taken hold. Keep watching the affected nail carefully in case symptoms worsen. If pain increases, discoloration spreads, or other nails become involved, see a dermatologist.
