What happens with acne is hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. Acne filled with pus or blood means that it is infected. When it comes to treating them, using topical benzoyl peroxide is quite helpful while for severe cases, oral antibiotics such as doxycycline may be necessary. Make sure you continue your treatment regularly and keep your face clean so as not to get more pimples. You can also visit a dermatologist for further treatment.

Hi, My little finger got injured a few days back. There was no cut or bleeding but there was pus coming from it for couple of days. I did not use any medicine. Now it heeled completely and I do not have any pain. But the fingernail is starting to come off. What should I do?
Male | 24
Your finger got an infection and that’s why there was pus. The pus most likely helped to fight off the infection in your body though. Once your finger has healed, it’s common for the nail to come off occasionally. A new one will grow back. Keep the area clean and covered. However, if it looks infected again or you are worried about anything else then it’s always best to get it checked out by a dermatologist.

The numerous factors that lead to skin allergies on the backside and legs include irritants, allergenic agents, infection or autoimmune disorders. It is necessary to consult a dermatologist that will conduct sufficiently comprehensive evaluation and suggest adequate options for treatment. Self-diagnosis and self treatment can make the situation only worse complicating it.

I had toenail torn off now a little black dot on skin toe is painful
Female | 50
It is very common to see these symptoms if you have undergone an episode of toenails being torn off. This is generally due to subungual haematoma. The foot infection can be prevented by visiting a podiatrist or a specialist for treatment.

Can I take acetaminophen( allergies) and melatonin together or wait?
Female | 27
Taking acetaminophen and melatonin is usually not a problem. It gets rid of headache and also fever. This way you will avoid being affected by the injury for long since it will quicken your sleep. Even so, you should take the right amount of each medicine. If you have any worries or strange feelings it is best to talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.

While cutting pubic hairs down there, I have cut myself from scissors. Can this cause tatnus. What should I do?
Female | 27
Tetanus disease comes with some toxic dirty cuts that make swallowing very hard as well as stiffness of muscles generally. Such people should ensure the scratch is germs-free by washing it with water and soap and then applying any antiseptic. One should also note that if you have not had any tetanus vaccination within the last ten years, make sure it is done as soon as possible to prevent further infections.

Hi,my self Bhargav, Recently I observed small holes under the pennies, when I press that holes, white and black substance coming outside, initially i thought like these are formed by hair grow.
Male | 29
You may have folliculitis, which is a common skin condition. This occurs when the hair follicles become infected with bacteria. The holes you can see are where the infection is coming out; this may contain pus hence the white and black things you mentioned. Clean the affected area regularly and use warm compresses too. However, if it’s too uncomfortable for you then visit a dermatologist.

I have athletes feet from 6 years How to get rid from that?
Female | 19
Athlete's foot, a common fungal skin illness, affects your feet. It could cause itchiness, discoloration, peeling, and odor. Keeping feet clean, dry (especially between toes), helps cure it. Use doctor-prescribed antifungal creams or powders diligently. Wear fresh socks, shoes daily. Avoid sharing footwear to prevent spreading infection.

I recently got Botox, and after that, I started losing a lot of hair. Even though I had hair loss before, now I am losing a lot more. Is this related to Botox side effects?
Female | 26
Hair loss after Botox is uncommon but can occur in some individuals. A reassuring fact is that it is generally temporary. Stress or the discharge of hormones can be responsible for hair loss, which medicine indicates can be Botox injections. In addition to hair loss, it's important to stay on a healthy diet, and cope with stress, and your hair to give extra care, if you want to help with hair loss. If the hair loss continues or worsens, consult a dermatologist for further advice.

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.

Female | 28
You need to use a vitamin C serum that can contain up to 10% L-ascorbic acid so that it can help to lighten the spots on the skin and improve its complexion. Regular acne and scarring should be taken by the dermatologist. I suggest obtaining a dermatologist’s opinion.

I have a skin problem, there are some red spots around my thighs and they are itching very much,how can I get rid from this situation..
Male | 22
You might be fighting dermatitis, one of the most common skin problems. Red spots and itching around the thighs are the main symptoms. This, however, may be attributed to the use of certain soaps, sweating, or even irritation from clothing. To soften your skin, you may want to wear loose cotton clothes, use gentle soaps, and apply a non-irritating moisturizer. If the issue doesn't go away, visit a dermatologist for recommendations.

Teenagers generally face body odor because of hormonal fluctuations. Nevertheless, if you come across a smell of urine, it is better to seek treatment from dermatologists and endocrinologists to get an underlying medical condition ruled out.

Male | 25
There may be an issue called balanitis affecting your penis' head. It involves inflammation. The black spot, burning feeling, and tenderness indicate irritation or infection. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness is crucial. Don't use harsh soaps or lotions on the area. If symptoms continue or worsen, visit a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Female | 19
The lotion possibly irritated your skin further. Here's how to ease the discomfort: Stop using the lotion immediately. Gently wash affected areas with mild soap and water. Apply an unscented, gentle moisturizer to hydrate and soothe irritated skin. Be vigilant about avoiding known allergens going forward.

HI, I am 40 years old. Today I noticed swelling on my penis skin, I am circumcised but the skin on the shaft closer to the penis head is swollen. There is no pain or itching as of now. Can you please help me !
Male | 40
It looks like you’ve got some swelling in the skin around your penis. Many things could cause painless or itchy-less swelling such as allergic reactions, fluid buildup, and infections. Keeping the area clean and dry is important. Try wearing loose underwear for a bit. If it doesn’t go away or get better, see a dermatologist to check it out.

I am 17 years old My new is kapil I have pimple on my chest and back what should I do I very pain full and itching
Male | 17
The pimples on your skin grow when the oil glands get blocked. Your first step in resolving this issue is keeping good personal hygiene by showering daily and using the right soap to suit your skin. One thing to avoid is the temptation to pick or scratch the pimples since it will cause them to persist rather than heal. On the other hand, wearing roomy clothing will let your skin breathe, hence you will not have the problem. For the people out there who need them the most, they likely don't even feel comfortable asking you for that so the effect would be squandered. If these steps don't work, visit a dermatologist.
