The redness you see might be a cause of infection. It can be managed by washing the area properly with soap and water. Next, put an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment and cover it with a bandage. If the redness starts to expand, you get a fever, or if there is pus, seek medical help immediately.

I am concerned about my hair my hairline is intact but top and crown area is affected and diffuse thinning is there
Female | 25
Hair loss can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, or health issues like PCOS. In your case, the shedding might be related to these factors. The good news is that it should improve as your menstrual cycle regulates. Eating well, managing stress, and self-care will help your hair grow back stronger.

Sir face per fungal infection mark ha uska solution btaye
Male | 24
Patches can appear discolored when a fungus infects facial skin. Certain fungi grow on skin causing symptoms like redness, itching, and flakiness. Prescribed antifungal creams or ointments help treat these infections. Keeping infected areas clean and dry assists effective treatment. Although not severe, fungal infections can leave marks if untreated. Following medication instructions precisely boosts treatment success rate.

I have developed rashes around my vagina and it’s spreading to my anus area. It’s itching. Please what is the cause and treatment.
Female | 21
You might have a yeast infection. Yeast is the name of the genus of fungi that can cause red, itchy rashes in warm moist body parts like the vagina and anus. Other symptoms may be inflammation, swelling, and a white, clumpy discharge. With this, doctors can give you antifungal creams that you can buy over the counter, but it is essential to see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and get the right treatment.

Hi doc , there is some hyperpigmentation on my ear cocha , but it been a years I have that in both ears
Female | 27
Some common causes of ear discoloration can be excessive sunlight, hormone modifications, or genetic conditions. It would be wise to have an appointment with the dermatologist so that a careful evaluation and diagnosis can be done. Sunlight exposure and sunscreen should be good enough to give suitable treatment options like topical creams or laser therapy to lighten the pigmentation.

I have spot on penis last 2 days it's a abit sore had white head
Male | 35
Getting pimples on your penis happens, like the face. This one is irritated and painful. Sometimes sweat or rubbing causes them there. Don't touch it or try squeezing. Cleanliness and dryness help. However, if it worsens or persists, see a dermatologist soon.

I had a small cut on my hand that came into contact with blood on clothe. I didn't see any blood on my cut afterward or any wetness. Could I be infected with HIV?
Female | 33
HIV does not spread easily from dried blood. The virus dies quickly outside the body. A small cut touching dried blood is very unlikely to cause infection. Unbroken skin protects against HIV entering the body. Being cautious with blood is wise. However, in this case, the chance of getting HIV is extremely low. It's still good to watch for any unusual symptoms. But you probably have nothing to worry about!

I have rashes on my body. It come and goes. It has been like this for 4months. this week I did a blood test and I want explanations to the results.
Male | 41
The results of your blood test suggest that you may have an allergy or an autoimmune disease. These can be the reason why rashes appear and disappear. It is essential to work out the cause of these rashes and treat them by staying away from the allergen or taking medication as prescribed by your doctor. Remember to go back to a dermatologist for more tests and treatment.

Can D rise 40,000 iu lead hair fall?? (Once per week)
Female | 20
An overdose of a large dosage of vitamin D, such as 40,000 IU weekly, can sometimes result in side effects, but hair loss is not a frequent one. Overdose symptoms of vitamin D include stomach upset, weakness, and frequent urination. Hair fall can be a potential result of a range of difficulties, such as stress, hormones, or nutrition restrictions. It is very important to share with the dermatologist any anxieties who can know your unique situation and help you find the right change or treatment. Moreover, keeping a proper diet and finding ways to cope with stress will also greatly help.

Hi, I'm 21 years old, for the past few years I've been experiencing skin irritations, now i have a lot of dark spots on my body and face, I don't know how to overcome this problem
Male | 21
You might be dealing with pesky skin irritations and annoying dark spots. Itching, redness, or lumps can eventually cause spots to form on your skin. This can happen due to sun exposure, acne breakouts, or certain skin conditions. Don’t worry too much because there are ways to address this issue. Use mild soap when washing, always wear sunscreen, and consult a dermatologist for advice. They might prescribe creams to help fade the marks and improve your skin condition.

I've been growing small bumps on my glans spreading up to the tip. It started with just Fordyce spots on my shaft, then smaller different types of bumps started to form on the head, it slowly got worse and worse over the years. It looks different from PPP one seen online.
Male | 25
It's understandable to feel concerned about changes in your genital area. The bumps you describe could be related to several conditions, including common skin variations like Fordyce spots or other benign growths. While many are harmless, any new or changing symptoms should be evaluated by for an accurate diagnosis and peace of mind. I encourage you to schedule an appointment with a dermatologist or urologist who can provide personalized advice and treatment options if necessary.

Please tell me about acne on my face and dry skin in winter last 5 years,
Female | 39 ye
Acne and dry skin during colder months can occur due to various factors, such as decreased humidity and changes in oil production. Symptoms may include red, inflamed spots alongside tightness or flakiness. To address these issues, consider using a gentle cleanser, a non-comedogenic moisturizer, and products with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide for acne. Stay hydrated and use a humidifier to add moisture to your environment. If these strategies don’t bring relief, please consult a dermatologist for tailored advice. Professional care will help you manage your skin effectively and comfortably.

Hi mam am kavya from Davangere my problem is skin problem pimple problem
Female | 24
Pimples are irritating bumps. They develop when pores clogged with oil and dead cells. Redness, swelling, and discomfort occur. But solutions exist to aid complexion woes. Cleanse skin with mild soap regularly. Limit facial contact. Eat nutritious foods. Try salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide products for blemish reduction. Be patient - improvement takes time. Consult a dermatologist if uncertain.

I have Rashes on my under thighs it's been more then month have used rash cream but it's still itching and rashes are visible
Male | 54
You're having rashes under your thighs that won't disappear. The itchiness and rashes could result from skin irritation or fungal infection. Using rash cream didn't help, so you might require prescription cream from a dermatologist. Keep that area clean and dry; wear loose clothes. Don't scratch to avoid more irritation.
