Answered on 18th Sept '24
Ringworm is a cutaneous infection which a fungus causes. Symptoms such as red, itchy, and scaly spots that look like circles may occur on the skin. The ringworm can be transmitted through contact with infected people, pets, or objects like shared towels. Therapy involves antifungal creams or tablets. You can also prevent the spreading of the infection by keeping the area clean and dry.

Testicles skin got red and full burning
Male | 32
Your testicles feel red and burning. That's very uncomfortable. It could be balanitis - swelling of the skin. Poor hygiene, germs, or irritants can cause it. Keep the area clean, dry, and wear loose underwear. Avoid harsh products. If it doesn't get better, see a dermatologist for help and treatment.

My dad has a white patch near chest. Is it worrisome
Male | 62
A white patch on the neck could be a condition called pityriasis versicolor, caused by yeast growth on the skin. It usually leads to white patches without other symptoms. Anti-fungal creams or shampoos prescribed by a dermatologist can help treat it. Keeping the area clean and dry is also important.

I have dull uneven skin with age spots and pigmentation. How can I completely reduce it and get an even glowing skin?
Female | 46
The process can be caused by sun exposure, aging, or hormonal changes. You can enhance skin conditions using skincare products with retinol, vitamin C, and niacinamide. Don't forget to apply sunscreen daily and don't stay in the sun The use of the same skincare products every day can lead to the expected outcome. If the condition doesn't improve, visit a dermatologist.

I have hair loss due to ‘Alopecia’ so doctor told to apply panderm cream is that ok
Male | 28
Alopecia causes hair loss. Panderm cream is not recommended because it contains steroids and can have side effects on the skin, potentially making the condition worse. It's better to see a dermatologist for proper treatment options like topical medications or injections.

I am 30 year old male and my face cover is dark spots that is called acne Used some medicine one year ago but no any positive results I need help you
Male | 30
There are a few options that you could try. First, it may help if you switch up your skincare routine. Make sure you are using gentle cleansers and moisturizers that are suitable for your skin type. You may also want to look into products that contain salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide, which can help reduce inflammation and clear up acne. Additionally, you may consult with a dermatologist to discuss further treatment options. They may be able to recommend a prescription topical treatment or a course of antibiotics that could help clear up your acne.

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.

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.

Female | 28
You are likely suffering from cellulitis, which is an infection. This can happen when bacteria enter the body through an injury or insect bite. The infection usually causes redness, swelling, and pain in the affected area. Besides these symptoms, you may also feel severe pain. If the infection spreads, it can lead to serious issues like shortness of breath and joint pain. It is crucial to get antibiotic treatment immediately to stop the infection.

I am 21 years old and having forehead acne only and no acne on other part of face and my doctor suggested me isotretinoin should I take it or they are for severe acne?
Female | 21 years
Forehead acne is quite common. It can be because of the sebum the skin makes too much as it gets plugged and distresses the follicles. Isotretinoin is mainly used for the treatment of severe acne, so if your doctor has recommended it, it may indicate that your acne has become more severe and chronic. Make sure you are listening to your doctor and feel free to express your worries if you have any.

If I have a wringworm and start putting blue star ointment on it 3 times a day but also put cortisone cream to soothe the itch will it cause the fungus to spread?
Female | 15
Using it together on a wringworm can actually make the fungus spread. It is recommended to only use antifungal medication to treat a wringworm, and consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

quick thing l wanted to mention, l encountered a problem not to long ago, every night when l was going to bed l put the heater on and left it on for the whole night the heat got really intense at times even reaching 80 degrees. l did this for like 4 weeks every night. And then the bottom of my mouth got a burnt mark, it's been 5 months, and the burnt mark is still there, l've been wandering how can l get rid of this
Male | 20
You might have a thermal burn in your mouth due to the extreme heat. This usually happens when the tissues in your mouth have been exposed to high temperatures for an extended period. Sometimes, burns take some time to completely heal. To speed up the healing process, apply gels that soothe or ointments meant for mouth burns. Also, drink cold liquids and avoid eating spicy or hot foods because they can increase discomfort levels. However, if the burnt mark continues, go to see a dentist.

Male | 19
Balanitis is what you are probably suffering from. Balanitis refers to a situation when the foreskin of the penis or its tip becomes red, inflamed, and sensitive. The reasons could be not cleaning the foreskin, irritation due to soaps, or even infections. To assist, guarantee that the area is kept clean and dry, avoid using harsh soaps, and you may need a dermatologist to prescribe medication.

Hi Sir, which is the best ointment for rashes on my penis head. Please tell me the reason for rashes coming occasionally on penis head. These rashes are not suffering by any itching. They will disappear in 2 to three days.
Male | 51
You are probably feeling a little bit of discomfort on your penile skin. These rashes may be caused by irritants such as soaps, creams, or clothes rubbing against the skin. Since the rashes disappear within a few days and do not itch, then the chances are they are not the cause for alarm. To prevent rashes from recurring, you can try cleansing with mild, fragrance-free soaps and wipe the area down with a dry cloth. If rashes start to itch, hurt, or stay on the skin over time, it would be better to see a dermatologist.

I have penile pain sometimes and i have white vein like structure on my penis glans from more than 2 months
Male | 22
Feeling soreness in your penis’s glans accompanied by white-colored vein-like lines is something that could make you worry but let’s make it simple. This may result from an infection or irritation. It can be either sharp or mild pain and those veins could mean that blood circulation is not enough or there is a problem with the skin there. Maintain hygiene around that place, don’t wear tight clothes on it, and use some nonprescription creams. If it doesn’t go away or it gets worse then you should see a dermatologist.
