Why am I developing unusual blisters after taking expired Advil?
I have (in the last 24 hours) developed unusual blisters on my hands, fingers, nose, and cheek. Two mornings ago I woke up with a fever and chills (it has since subsided) and took Advil to help, but after two rounds of taking it, I noticed the bottle was a few years expired--perhaps this is related?

In the past 24 hours, if you have developed strange blisters around your hands, fingers cheek and nose then it is necessary to see a dermatologist. However, even if the expired Advil has no connection to the blisters, it is still essential never to take any medication after its expiration date. Seek specialized medical care in case your condition does not improve.

My husband suffering red patches on his neck nd under neck side 2 days after it spread in nose side pls suggest how to cure
Male | 48
Red patches have appeared on your husband's neck, under his chin—a bothersome sight! When spreading to the nose area, it may indicate contact dermatitis, a skin condition caused by exposure to an irritant. To relieve discomfort, have him avoid the irritant, gently cleanse the affected areas with water, and apply soothing creams like aloe vera or hydrocortisone. If symptoms persist, it's best to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

How can I reduce darkness of my private parts
Female | 19
Tight garments, inadequate hygiene, or friction between skin can lead to discoloration there. To lighten the area, maintain cleanliness, wear loose clothing, and use mild soap for washing. However, if concerned or experiencing additional symptoms, consulting a dermatologist is a good option.

Hello Doctor, I am a 30 year old female and I recently noticed open pores on my face, what should I do? My daily routine is: use himalaya neem face wash, then moisturize skin and I happen to have oily & dull skin. Can you pls suggest what should I do? Thank you!
Female | 30
I would like to start by recommending a daily skincare routine for the problems you are facing. Start with Oil control cleansers with AHA's or BHA's to clear the oil and dirt from your face 2-4 times a day. Use a Vit C serum or day serum in the morning if you are at home and you can add sunscreen on top if you are going to go out and will get exposed to sunlight. Evening, after wash use a toner to neutralize and calm your skin. Before bed, use a coat of moisturizer and additional retinol-based anti-aging serum to finish. If it's a major concern, please contact a dermatologist.

Can i get hpv from sharing clothes , towels or my personal items or objects from someone who has genital warts ?
Male | 32
Genital warts are caused by a virus known as HPV. It is impossible to be infected with HPV through the sharing of clothes, towels, or objects of personal hygiene. The most common way for HPV to spread is through skin-to-skin contact, usually during sexual activity. The general symptoms of genital warts are the presence of small, flesh-colored bumps in the genital area. In case you happen to be concerned about HPV then the best thing to do is to talk to a healthcare provider about preventing and treating it.

Like pimple type in my anal whole area
Male | 30
Seemingly it happens that little pimples materialize there in the anal area, letting you into the conclusion whether the condition is a manifestation of conjunctive factors such as folliculitis, hemorrhoids, or genital warts. These matters often occur as a result of various causes like friction, dirt, or skin irritation. To avoid feeling discomfort, be clean, be loose of the things that squeeze, and try using emollients. Nevertheless, it's a must to deal with a dermatologist to diagnose the case and decide on the right treatment, mainly if the situations fester or become worse.

Does Sulfamethoxazole-Trimethoprim cure Chlamydia?
Male | 19
Sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim also recognized as Bactrim is not usually used in treating chlamydia. This is because it is a bacteria that spreads through intimate contact. This may lead to painful urination, unusual discharge, and sometimes no signs at all. Normally, antibiotics such as azithromycin or doxycycline are used to cure chlamydia. If you suspect that you have the disease, it is important to get tested and treated so as to avoid any further complications.

l have itchy legs for last two weeks and it itch constantly.What should i do?
Male | 15
When skin is dry, it tends to be more during winter. It could also result from an allergy to something like soap or lotion. Moreover, conditions such as eczema may affect the skin too. Try to solve this problem by using a lot of moisturizing lotion, changing your soap to the one that does not react, and stopping scratching to avoid infections. If these measures fail, then see a dermatologist.

Hi, I'm having dark spots on hands and legs which are caused by wounds. Please suggest me any cream to get rid off them
Female | 22
It looks like you have a skin problem called post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This happens when your skin makes too much color after a cut or bruise. This causes dark spots. To make the dark spots go away, you can use a cream with ingredients like vitamin C, kojic acid, or licorice extract. It may take some time for the spots to fade away. And make sure to stay out of the sun to stop the spots from getting darker. If the problem persists, visit a dermatologist.

Hello, I have redness on my nose, I would like to get rid of it, as its not the same colour and it looks ugly. I kinda know why its red. I had erythema multiforme, after someone drank from my water bottle and i got herpes simplex, i had red dots on my hand, knees, elbows, and one on my nosebridge now its gone, but ever since i have a discolored nose. The top where it connects to the forehead is white and below its a red colour, what can I do to get back the original colour of my nose, is there any medication that can help?
Male | 21
That redness on your nose might be leftover swelling. Don't worry though, with some gentle TLC, it should fade. Be sure to moisturize and use mild products. Staying out of harsh sunlight (and SPF!) will also keep discoloration away. It may take time, but your skin will heal.

Legs pale on waking but colour restored after 5 minutes
Female | 59
Getting pale legs when you wake up is a sign of circulation in your legs. This change happens during sleep which can cause the blood vessel (temporarily) to narrow or decrease in the blood flow for a limited time. This is mainly the result of sleeping positions or a fall in blood pressure. When the body is moved, the blood flow to the veins gradually improves, and the color of the limb gets back to normal. Basically, this is not something that you need to worry about. Nevertheless, if you notice other signs such as a hurting leg, swelling, or frequently changing color it is a good idea to ask a dermatologist's advice.

You probably have a sinus infection. As a result, you might experience fatigue, headache, sore throat, and swollen mouth. The spots on your tongue may suggest an infection too. To feel better, drink water, rest, and see a dermatologist for further advice.
