Following methods can help in removing your cholesterol deposits:
- Surgical removal, laser, and electrodesiccation
- Chemical cauterization: deploys chlorinated acetic acids to remove the deposits without scarring.
- Cryotherapy: freezing and removing xanthelasma. Can either scar or change the pigment of your skin.
Xanthelasma can reoccur however, so your doctor may also recommend lifestyle modifications to help manage underlying conditions which is resulting in this.
Also schedule an appointment with dietician so as to:
- Preferably restrict saturated fats to fewer than 9 percent of your daily caloric consumption.
- Increase fiber intake.
- Eat protein-rich food, especially plant proteins like tofu or beans.
- Consume a moderate amount of calories from monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats.
With this, we would also advice you to adapt these habits:
- Reduce alcoholic intake.
- If you smoke or chew tobacco, quit. Talk to your doctor about programs for quitting smoking if you need help breaking the habit.
- Engage in moderate-intensity cardiovascular exercises.

I am 21 can i eligible for hair transplant?
Male | 21
One of the factors that influence eligibility for a hair transplant includes age. Although there is no strict age limit, the stability of your hair loss pattern should be considered. Typically, hair transplants will be recommended for individuals whose menu of baldness is stabilizing around their late 20’s or older; this gives them a better sense about what the future patterns would look like. Furthermore, overall health, availability of donor hairs and rational expectations surrender to a decision on eligibility.

I am a 19 year old female. Within the past 6-10 months I’ve noticed my body hair getting darker, (not thicker,) in certain areas. I was wondering if this was normal and, if so what is the cause(s)? I do not think i have pcos, but I’m not sure if i should be concerned. Thank you!
Female | 19
The darkening of body hair in certain parts due to hormonal fluctuations does not mean something is wrong. This can be due to genetic and hormonal factors as well as environmental and behavioral aspects. Nevertheless, if along with dark hair you also have other symptoms like not having periods over long periods or having excessive hair growth, it is helpful to seek assistance from a dermatologist and do some tests for any irregularities.

Hi...i am having itchy rash outside my vagina and thighs , its been 2days
Female | 24
Fungal infections can lead to an itchy rash in the vaginal and thigh area. The warm and humid climate is an ideal growth environment for fungi. Keep the area dry and clean. You can use antifungal creams available over the counter to help clear it up. Moreover, wearing loose and breathable clothes is also important.

i have dead skin constantly pealling off my toes and a couple of cuts at the bottom of each toe and in-between the toes too
Male | 43
You probably developed athlete's foot. This fungal infection grows between toes, warm and moist spots. Peeling skin signifies it. Cuts are another symptom. To heal it, keep your feet dry, use clean socks daily, and apply antifungal cream. Clearing it takes time. Be patient. Stick with the treatment regimen.

Female | 17
You have jock itch, which is a skin condition that grows a fungus on your skin in hot and damp regions such as the inner thighs. The list includes itching, blackening of the skin as well as rashes. Treatment of the ailment entails you having to purchase antifungal creams. This illness is one of those that often recur. Keep your skin clean and dry after training to prevent it from flaring up again.

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.

Hi, I am a girl of 19 years old. My boyfriend has given me a love bite on my breast and on back. I wanted to ask if this is normal? As I am feeling a bit sick and feverish. I want to know if this is okay to feel such way? For more information, earlier when i got a love bite, it was on neck and i faced neck infection. I had neck swelling. It got okay after medications though. But I want to know if there are chances for swelling this time too? Something like this? Or will it be okay with time and nothing will happen? Please clear. Thanks
Female | 19
A love bite can cause fever and sickness, it's normal. Your boyfriend's bite on the breast and back may have let bacteria enter broken skin. This causes infection - swelling and tenderness. Clean the area, use warm compress, take pain meds if needed. But if pus appears or symptoms worsen, get medical help right away.

It could be due to various reasons like allergies, skin infections, or even a reaction to the sanitizer you applied.

I have got few pimples around mouth and on chin.. Few weeks back I had one boil on penis shaft which went away.. After some days there was one more big boil which also went away.. Me and my partner never had any other history or never involved with any other partner before.. We had oral sex and used condoms for other sex.. Not able to understand are these pimples normal due to warm weather or something else?
Male | 30
Summer heat can cause pimples around your mouth and chin. The boils on your penis may be folliculitis — an infection when bacteria enters hair follicles. Cleanliness and dryness help prevent this condition. If pimples persist or you have concerns, see a dermatologist.

I am 34 yrs old female and I have acne and acne marks problem on my face - recently my face has been very dry and acne is coming also I have tight white pores issue which is making my skin look very dull and uneven.
Female | 34
As you are 34 years old, there might be some hormonal issues leading to acne. Consult local dermatologist for treatment who might prescribe you some topical antibiotics benzoyl peroxide or daplin or oral drugs depending upon the situation. It is advisable to use moisturizers, particularly water-based that do not uproot the pores because medication usage might result in dryness and little irritation. Your Skin will be much better after the treatment for Acne.

Have a toe infection from biting my nail, tried soaking it in warm water for a few minutes and no soloution. It turned from darkish red to pink in about a week. What should u do to remove the infection
Male | 14
Infections can occur when germs enter the skin through a cut or bite. Symptoms that your toe is infected include redness, swelling, warmth, and pain. To treat it, try soaking your toe in warm soapy water for 15 minutes 3-4 times a day. This will help clean the area and reduce swelling. Keep your toe clean and dry, and don’t squeeze or pop it. If it doesn’t improve, see a dermatologist for further treatment.

I have been for four years keratosis pilaris How can I fix the skin problem?
Female | 20
Chicken skin is a condition where your skin feels bumpy, and rough, like sandpaper. Keratin buildup blocks hair follicles, causing this. Using mild cleansers helps. Moisturize often. Gentle exfoliation smooths bumps. Lactic acid or urea products reduce roughness. It's common but usually improves gradually.

Ring worm infection all over the body.
Male | 15
Ringworm isn't from worms, it's a funky fungus skin infection. Scattered red, scaly, itchy patches appear on your body. See a dermatologist for antifungal cream or pill treatment. Keep skin clean, and dry to prevent spreading. Don't share personal items - that's how it travels.

I noticed a growth around my private part but not my penis but within the layers below the penis region , and I visited a pharmacist and I was told I had genital wart . Also told to use a cream called podophyllin cream , I will like to know how long the wart stays in the body and also if it doesn’t cause cancer or diseases like hiv or aids
Male | 34
Small flesh bumps down there are caused by a virus called HPV. The virus can stay in your body for a long time. But medicine like podophyllin cream can treat the bumps. Your pharmacist will guide you on using the cream. The bumps do not cause cancer, HIV, or AIDS. But you may see small, flesh-colored bumps in your private parts. Be sure to follow the cream use instructions carefully. Keep using the cream until the bumps go away. If you have more worries or questions, talk to a dermatologist.

I have a skin cut I haven’t done any medication but I used bactrocin cream now I am afraid of my wound I Don't know what to do
Male | 19
You used bactrocin cream on a skin cut. That's okay, but first clean cuts with soap and water before applying cream. Bactrocin cream helps prevent infections. However, if the cut looks red, swollen, or has pus, it may be infected. See a dermatologist in that case, they'll examine and treat it properly. Meanwhile, keep the cut clean and covered.

Allergy swelling in hands
Female | 32
You most likely are facing swelling of your hands that is induced by an allergy. Allergies develop when the body reacts to a certain stimulus that it doesn't like, which results in swelling. Redness, itching, or even puffiness are the possible symptoms you may get on your hands. The most common causes of allergies can be some foods, insect bites, or even contact with some things. To help with swelling, consider taking antihistamines and avoiding your allergy triggers.

On today morning I saw my 2 sides of forehead are black and skin are thin.when I use water it's itching
Male | 25
You might have a skin problem. The darkness on your forehead might stem from too much pigment in the skin while the thinness could result from inflammation or irritation. Feeling itchy when water touches it could mean that it is sensitive or dry. Use a mild lotion and avoid strong products. In case this does not help, see a dermatologist who will examine you further and offer treatment if necessary.
