You’ve got the symptoms of a disease called balanitis. This may be associated with symptoms such as nausea, red spots, and pain when urinating. Balanitis can often be due to a lack of proper hygiene, an allergy to soaps or laundry detergents, or a yeast or bacterial infection. As one of the options to get rid of the itching and irritation, the area should be softly washed with warm water and mild soap. Steer clear of the harsh chemicals and tight clothing. The symptoms are still there, see a dermatologist for more tests and treatment.

My baby daughter whose age is 2 years and 10 months got some rashes ( without irritation/itching) two weeks back. Pediatrician recommended atarax, a to z syrup and one dose of ivermectin/albendazole syrup. They decreased for two days and again came on second day. Then he proposed predone syrup. They went away from then. After three to four days further we stopped medication as suggested by pediatrician. Now it is 14th day. Today morning again slight rashes appeared. But not like earlier. Should we wait for two more days so that they reduce themselves or consult a pediatrici dermatologist
Female | 3
The rash has been rightly treated with medications prescribed by the pediatrician. You can wait to see how the rash develops or goes away by itself in a few days

I have got small bumps like ringworm above my testicles since last 7 days. But that's because I have been using anti-fungal soap and ointment for the last 7 days But it's not going down
Male | 21
Those small bumps may indicate a fungal infection, like ringworm. It's concerning that the anti-fungal soap and ointment haven't worked after a week. Fungal infections can be persistent little buggers. Consulting a dermatologist might be wise for further assessment and potentially stronger medication.

I'm 39 from Nigeria. I have a black, cone-like lump on the upper left side of my belly. It started as small bump some years back but with time developed to 2cm in diameter. It's very hard. I feel pain around it each time I'm nervous and itchy sometimes. I have had scan conducted but didn't reveal exactly what it's.. it suggested that Stony bump appears like degenerating Lipoma. .
Male | 39
This hard mass might be a lipoma, which is usually harmless and consists of fat cells. These growths mainly develop under the skin and grow slowly over time. Although it is good that you have had a scan, sometimes further tests are necessary for conclusive results. However, if it is very painful or bothers you a lot, consider consulting with a surgeon who may recommend its removal.

I am a 19 year old female. I have had a red patch on the inside of my upper lip for around 4 and a half weeks that hasn’t gone. Sometimes it’s painful, and it regularly tastes metallic. I’m not sure what this is or how to treat it
Female | 19
You may be dealing with a condition called oral lichen planus, which can cause painful red spots in your mouth that taste metallic. Don't worry, it's not contagious. The exact cause is unknown, it might be linked to the immune system. To ease the discomfort, avoid hot or sour foods and use mild mouth rinses while keeping your mouth clean. If these tips don't help or your symptoms worsen, make an appointment with a dermatologist to get a proper diagnosis and discuss further treatment options.

I feel like i m having eczema allergy from last 3 weeks my whole body is very itchy and tiny bumbs on my hand fingers and feet and recently i had cold and that was i mean i never had such bad cold ever before just little fever but this time it was really bad fever headache and cough everything and i still have cough and from last few days i m smelling blood in my throat
Female | 18
Skin can get itchy and small bumps may appear. This could be eczema. A cold might trigger these issues. The cough and blood smell from your throat relate to being sick. Moisturize skin to ease itching and bumps. Don't scratch. Drink lots of fluids. If problems persist, visit a dermatologist. They can diagnose your condition and develop a treatment plan.

I am a 20 year old female that had a cold sore on my lip a few months ago. The actual scab is gone, but there is still a sharp pain in that spot when I touched it. Is it still contagious and how can I stop it? I’ve been putting Abreva and Carmex on the spot that hurts but nothing seems to help. Thank you
Female | 20
The nerve near your previous sore could be causing your current pain. Cold sores are contagious until fully healed, but once the scab is gone, the risk is usually over. You can apply a cold compress or take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Avoid touching or picking at the sore to prevent irritation. If the pain persists or worsens, it's best to consult a dermatologist.

Can hair loss at crown be treated effectively?
Male | 29
Hair loss in the crown area, often called a bald spot, is usually hereditary. Yes, it runs in the family! Other factors like stress, poor diet, and certain illnesses can also contribute. DHT blockers like Propecia (finasteride) and minoxidil (Rogaine) may slow hair loss in men. It's always best to consult a dermatologist for advice.

Can I use soframycin ointment on my nose piercing
Female | 17
Nose piercings sometimes get infected. Redness, swelling, pus appear when germs enter. Soframycin ointment doesn't treat piercing infections. Saline solution (saltwater) gently cleans the area. Rinse piercing multiple times daily. If symptoms persist beyond several days, consult a doctor. Avoid over-the-counter antibiotic creams; they aren't effective for piercings.

Female | 20
There are many reasons why your skin may appear older than you’d like. Some of the most common include excessive sun exposure, smoking, and dehydration. Additionally, stress and genetics can also contribute to this issue. To improve the condition of your skin, it is advisable to apply sunscreen every day, drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and quit smoking. Using mild cleansers along with moisturizers can help maintain a healthy complexion.

i am 18 years old and i had small ball like structure in penis shaft for 3 years and it still not going away. I once goes for checkup but doctor says it normal and it will remove within weeks or months but its 3 years now
Male | 18
It looks like you’ve got penile papules. These are small, harmless bumps that commonly appear on the shaft of the penis. They might be white, pinkish or the color of your skin, and they don’t come from infections or bad hygiene. If the bumps start hurting or itching or anything else about them changes, it’s best to go see a dermatologist.

What are theses rashs on me been there for 2 months and getting worse
Female | 27
This could mean you have eczema. Eczema makes skin red, itchy and inflamed in patches. Many things can trigger it, like allergies or irritants. To help, keep skin moisturized. Don't use harsh soaps. Try a gentle moisturizing cream or ointment instead. You can also visit a dermatologist.

Female | 22
Breasts changing color and feeling more sensitive is common. This could happen due to hormones, irritated skin, or blood flow changes. Look for other issues like pain or lumps too. If changes last or worry you, talk to a doctor for a checkup.

Whether your baby's eczema is one of the conditions that is common, it causes the skin to become dried out, itchy and inflamed. A pediatric dermatologist should be consulted as soon as possible after the detection and should be done correctly for diagnosis and treatment.

Hydroquinone for skin lightening
Male | 18
Let me give you the lowdown on hydroquinone: it’s a common ingredient found in skin lightening products. This is because it works by reducing melanin in the skin. So if you have dark spots such as age or sun spots, using hydroquinone could help fade them away. However, don’t forget that you must be cautious not to misuse it since this can cause some undesired effects. As a rule, always follow directions given by the manufacturer when using any cosmetic product and also watch out for any allergic reactions.

The rash may occur because of various causes, such as allergies, infectious agents, and skin disorders. Reporting may cover redness, itching, or bumps. To aid it, wash with mild soaps, avoid irritants, and keep the area free of moisture and dirt. If it doesn't disappear or you have any other symptoms, you are advised to go to a dermatologist.

I am 28 years old female suffering from the problem of dark circles circles since last 10 years. I have taken a lot of treatments from 15+ doctors but nothing worked, i even tried all home remedies, ayurveda, homeopathy and much more, because of which my skin got burned twice. Moreover my dark circles got even more prominent and stiff. Now i want to head forward towards advance treatments. Doctors are suggesting me to go for chemical peel . Therefore i want a second opinion on whether it will work, how effective it will be and if it will it be safe.
Female | 28
Chemical peels can be an effective treatment for dark circles. It involves the use of a chemical solution that is applied to the skin in order to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new, healthy skin cells. This can help to reduce the appearance of dark circles, although it is not a guaranteed solution and may require multiple treatments to achieve the desired results. It is important to consult with your dermatologist before undergoing any chemical peel procedure, as it can carry some serious risks. These risks can include scarring, infection, skin discoloration, and irritation. Additionally, chemical peels can cause lasting damage to the skin if not performed properly. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions carefully.
