How Can I get Rid of Pimples and Acne on My Face?
I have pimples and acne on my face . What should I do?
Cosmetologist
Answered on 6th June '24
This can happen when your skin gets too oily, pores get blocked, bacteria grows in them or hormonal changes take place. To help get rid of them, you can try washing your face with a mild soap often, don’t squeeze them, and keep your hands off your face. Over-the-counter creams or gels with benzoyl peroxide/salicylic acid may also work for you. Consider talking to a dermatologist for more help.

How can I get a prescription for Hydroquinone or Albaquin 20% for pigmentation on my face. Had Depigmentation in the past in England, where I reside for extensive vitiligo. I used to get it from Dr Mulekar and from Puneet Lab, Mumbai. Dr Mulekar has now passed away. I’m looking for another Dermatologist who can prescribe it for me. I get small very dark specks on my face occasionally, the Albaquin 20% helps to control these dark patches.
Female | 63
Dealing with pigmentation issues on your face can be frustrating. You're looking for a prescription for either Hydroquinone or Albaquin 20% to help lighten those dark patches. Pigmentation problems often result from sun exposure or hormonal changes. A dermatologist could evaluate your skin, and then prescribe the most suitable treatment option. Hydroquinone and Albaquin 20% are potential solutions worth considering.

Hi doc, I have an added areola around my nipples it's not dark in color it's just a light brownish thing with some little hairs that are growing, I went on my periods fully, but they came early because of the emergency pill I used. I then took two pregnancy tests after seeing the change in my breasts and they were all negative I'm curious now what could cause the change
Female | 24
The emergency pill can cause hormonal changes, and this might result in breast changes such as an extra areola that is light brown with some hairs. Even if the pregnancy tests are negative, there could still be hormonal fluctuations leading to variations in breasts. Most likely, it is nothing serious and will return to normal soon. Watch out for it but if you are worried about anything then feel free to ask a doctor for advice.

Salmon patches on her face from her birth so i m worried about and how its solve problem
Female | 3months
Those light pink or red patches on your baby's face which are also known as salmon patches are quite common and usually nothing for parents to panic about. They occur when small blood vessels are near the skin. No need for treatment as they usually disappear on their own by the time the child is 1 to 2 years. Simply keep the area clean and protect against direct sunlight.

I have a rectangular patch of swelling or inflammation on my lower leg. It is about 4 inches in length and 3 inches in width. It has a small lump inside of it as well. I do not feel any pain nor do I think it is tender. I’ve had it for maybe about 5 or 6 moths and it has now gotten any smaller or bigger. The only medication I’ve. even taking is unisom for a few years now for insomnia and now for nausea because I am about 6 weeks pregnant. I also take prenatal. Why might I have these swelling/inflammation?
Female | 21
You may have a lipoma, a lump of fat lies beneath the skin. It is painless, harmless. Its size remains constant, generally. Your medications likely didn't cause it. Still, seek a doctor's examination for confirmation. If it grows, changes color, or brings pain, definitely consult a dermatologist.

Psoriasis solution 4 year old
Male | 26
Psoriasis happens when the skin turns red, with patches and itching. Scales on the skin look silvery. Not catching – you won't spread it. In kids, Psoriasis may come from stress or family history. Manage Psoriasis by moisturizing skin with creams. Don't scratch skin. Use gentle soap. Sometimes, doctors give special lotions for Psoriasis.

I am 23 years old male having oily skin and acne for last 5years please suggest serum , moisturizer and sunscreen
Male | 23
If your skin is oily, it produces excess oil, leading to clogged pores and acne. Using a serum with salicylic acid can help unclog pores, while a moisturizer with minimal cranberry oil can prevent acne growth. Applying sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher will protect your skin from the sun. These products are recommended for managing oily skin issues. You can also visit a dermatologist for personalized recommendations.

Can I be exempt from the Covid 19 vaccine if I have cold urticaria?
Female | 22
When your skin meets very low temperatures, hives can show up. This is called cold urticaria. The COVID-19 vaccines don't have things that make cold urticaria worse. These shots are safe for most people with this condition. But before getting vaccinated, it's good to talk with a dermatologist. They understand your specific situation best. The doctor can explain the pros and cons to help you decide.

I am a 40 year old man and have been having odour problens especially after peeing or aweating.
Male | 40
You might be suffering from the unpleasant smell that follows peeing or sweating in your case. The reason for your unpleasant smell might be a urinary tract infection or the bacteria on your skin. These can make the pee and sweat stink a little bit. Drinking more water, showering regularly, and wearing breathable clothes can help. If it prevails, it is wise to consult a gynecologist.

I am vishu, i have dark circles. I want to remove them permanently. Kindly give solutions.
Female | 28
Dark circle is observed in people with improper sleeping pattern, as messed up sleep causes your skin to turn pale, thereby allowing the dark tissues & vessels beneath your skin to show through. Chemical peel may work, but without any examination I cannot conclude anything. If you are interested in knowing more, then you may book an appointment on 9967922767. Just ensure that you connect with some dermatologist in Navi Mumbai as this problem may not go on its own.

Can I take glutathione for skin whitening
Male | 15
Glutathione isn't FDA approved for skin lightening.. Limited research available.. Possible side effects.. Discuss with doctor.. it is IMPORTANT to note that the use of glutathione for skin lightening comes with SERIOUS risks.. While it is MARKETED as a "natural" alternative to traditional skin lightening treatments, there is NO conclusive evidence to support its effectiveness.. The FDA HAS NOT approved glutathione for skin lightening purposes, which means that its safety and effectiveness have NOT been thoroughly tested

Namaste sir, for the past 2 years I'm suffering with dark underarm. Im using 50mg thyroid tablets. No diabetic. All reports normal. Can you please suggest treatment. Im unable to ward comfortable dresses. Please suggest sir
Female | 34
Having dark underarms can sometimes be quite disheartening. The cause of this could be a condition called acanthosis nigricans. It is most often found in those individuals who have insulin resistance or are obese. Your thyroid medication could be the cause of this, as your reports are normal. Be sure you're using a gentle soap and then applying a moisturizer to the area. Discuss with a dermatologist the possibility of trying different medications.

I am a 36 year old male with a rash on his peenis and it's sore
Male | 35
You may have a rash on your penis. The rash and soreness can be linked with several conditions such as a fungal infection or skin irritation caused by soaps or detergents, to name a few. If you want to help, try to keep the area clean and dry, avoid strange products, wear loose cotton underwear, and try an antifungal cream from the pharmacy. If it does not get better, see a dermatologist.

I have itchy buttons all over my body . It started over a month ago but they were unnoticeable and now it’s getting worse it’s all over my back and belly and arms
Female | 20
Eczema might be the condition causing those itchy bumps. This skin issue can worsen over time due to things like dry skin or allergies. To ease the itchiness, apply a gentle moisturizer and resist scratching the bumps. However, if they spread or don't improve, consulting a dermatologist for evaluation and treatment would be wise.

Thigh fungal infection not cure
Male | 22
Fungal infections are usually fungal diseases that manifest as rashes and irritated skin that can be red and itchy. The main cause is moisture getting stuck on the skin, which in turn creates spores of fungi that are unable to survive. To treat it, keep the area clean and dry and wear loose clothing as well as use antifungal creams as directed by a dermatologist.
