For a very dry and sensitive skin, start a niacinamide based gel to calm the skin .change the face wash to a gentle one, rather than a glow providing one. Post that apply the niacinamide. then use acne moisturizer and then sunscreen for acne prone skin. If this doesn't help you you can consult a dermatologist for skin lightening treatment.

Mere penis me infection ho gya hai aur 3saal se chhuti nahi raha hai mai kya karu
Male | 21
Get rid of the infection in your penis as quickly as possible because it is untreated. Infections are responsible for causing redness, swelling, itching, pain, or discharge. Leaving it untreated for 3 years is risky and can lead to more serious problems. Make sure that you are cleansing the area with water and mild soap on a daily basis. In addition to this, keeping the area dry and avoiding tight clothing will also be beneficial. If the infection does not improve, then you must see a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Pain in intimate area and itching

Sexually transmitted diseases or urinary tract infections are the most probable reasons for this. Yeast infections occur when there is too much yeast in that particular part of the body. Applying over-the-counter antifungal creams will be of great help. In the case of UTIs, Consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

I'm 23 year old I have pea size white patch in the upper tip of my lower lip. Doctor prescribed me melgain lotion for 40days at morning, takfa ointment 0.03% 2 times a day and cylofac capsule at night. Can I just use takfa ointment for now as I am afraid to use lotion. If the ointment suits my lips then will lotion afterwards.
Female | 23
The white patch you describe could be due to various causes, such as vitiligo or another skin condition. While it's essential to follow your doctor's prescribed regimen for optimal results, starting with just the topical ointment is a reasonable choice if you feel more comfortable with it. Ensure you monitor how your lips respond. However, please remember that the lotion plays a significant role in your treatment plan. If you have concerns, I recommend discussing your feelings with your dermatologist, who can offer tailored guidance and reassurance.

Female | 20
Vitiligo is a medical issue leading to pale spots on skin areas. It happens when your body attacks its own cells. Or vitiligo may stem from inherited genes. There's no permanent fix, but creams and light treatment can help blend skin tones better. Sun protection is key to stop color changes. You can also visit a dermatologist for treatment.

Hi, my mom wore sandals and it cut a little part of the top of her foot skin. It’s like a round circle and you can see the red skin. She has been using different foot medicine like antiseptic spray, rolled gauze bands, vaseline. She has took ibuprofen for pain. What can she do so it heals faster and relief pain?
Female | 60
Your mom likely developed a foot wound from friction with her sandal. Inflamed red skin indicates irritation. Antiseptic spray application was smart for preventing infections. Rolled gauze bandages shield the wound area. Vaseline keeps skin moisturized, promoting healing. Taking ibuprofen reduces discomfort and swelling. For quicker recovery, keeping the wound clean and dry while avoiding pressure on that foot is crucial.

Female | 21
You may have dyshidrotic eczema. It looks like small blisters on hands, fingers, and feet. Irritants, allergies, or stress cause this condition. Though not itchy, blisters feel painful sometimes. Keep hands and feet cool and dry. Use mild products. Avoid triggers like certain soaps or foods. If it worsens, see a dermatologist.

Hair fall can happen due to many reasons, like stress, poor diet, or not taking care of your hair. It’s good to eat healthy foods and be gentle on your hair when washing it. Consider using a mild shampoo and avoiding tight hairstyles that may cause breakage. If the hair fall doesn't stop, visit a dermatologist for treatment.

Im 36 male i get wond it heals but black spot does not go why
Male | 36
You are concerned about the sore that does not heal well and has a black spot. That black spot may be due to necrotic tissue or infection. The wound must remain clean and dry. If it's not healing or you have redness, warmth, or pus, consult a dermatologist to prevent the situation from worsening.

Pimples appearing on face which is best gel clindamycin phosphate gel with benzoyl peroxide or clindamycin phosphate gel with niacinamide??
Female | 21
Pimples can be annoying, but there are solutions to help. These spots come from blocked pores and germs. A gel with clindamycin phosphate and benzoyl peroxide can kill bacteria and reduce swelling. Alternatively, clindamycin phosphate with niacinamide may be better for redness and irritation. Both options work well, so you should pick the one best for your skin type. Not sure which to try? Start with one, then switch if it doesn't help.

Acne forms when pores get blocked with oil and dead cells. Pimples, blackheads, whiteheads appear. Moon glow cream may not work well. Cream ingredients might make acne worse. Use gentle products for acne-prone skin instead. Not all creams suit acne. Choose carefully.

Female | 22
You might have an abscess or infected hair follicle lying on your waist area. This is a scenario that happens quite often when a person gets an irritation caused by friction or shaving of the skin. I strongly suggest consulting with a gynecologist or a dermatologist for the definitive diagnosis and the right treatment.

I'm 23 years old female, I have pimple and marks last few years, I used lot of cream but no response, what can I do?
Female | 23
Pimples are caused by clogged hair follicles due to oil and dead skin cells. Stress, hormonal changes, and genetics among many other factors can be brought to action. It is crucial to clean your face twice a day with a mild cleanser and stop pricking at them. Think of applying products with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Keep it up by hydrating and eating a balanced diet. In case you are still having a problem, it would be good to consult a dermatologist to get some valuable advice.

I have a sore on top of my head at first it started out like a pimple but now it is has spread and is it Hy and sore what could it be
Male | 46
These happen when bacteria get into hair follicles or oil glands, causing infection. To treat it, you should use warm compresses on the area. This helps drain it and heal it. Don't pick or squeeze the sore! That could make the infection worse. Keep the area clean by washing it gently. You can also try over-the-counter antibiotic ointments to aid healing. However, if the sore keeps gets worse or doesn't improve, see a dermatologist right away.

I am 28 years old I have been having weird smell coming from my body yet I do hygiene and wore my clothes once and also use antiperspirant but still the condition doesn't improve and sometimes it worsen. Kindly assist doctor
Male | 28
Eating hygiene is a major concern as it causes problems with unusual body odors. The major factors including lifestyle, stress, hormone changes, or a few medical conditions are the causes. Some people may have bacteria on their skin and at the same time, the sweat may cause the same to be noticed at the same time. If you want to get better you should use an antiperspirant that works and also think about wearing only breathable items. Oftentimes, having to wash your clothes in hot water can be of great advantage. If it persists consult a dermatologist.

my pee becomes yellow after taking zincovit tablet
Male | 21
Zincovit has vitamin B2, making your urine look bright yellow, an ordinary effect. Your body discards extra vitamins it does not require, resulting in this coloring. Drink adequate water to maintain hydration. However, if the color shift troubles you or other worries arise, do inquire a urologist.

Male | 25
Scars are a reminder of where the skin was damaged, and they can be stubborn. You've tried various methods, but they didn't completely clear your scars. Each person is unique, and treatments work differently for everyone. It's important to follow your dermatologist's guidance. Scars fade slowly, so don't lose hope.

I am 18 years old , I don't know why now a days I'm feeling that my lips are becoming swollen and red and very itichy or painful. Stomatitis in inner upper and lower lips I guess .
Female | 18
Looks like it could be stomatitis, which can lead to swollen, red, itchy, or even painful lips. The reasons for this can be irritation, allergies, infections, or the lack of nutrients. Try eating bland and not acidic or spicy foods, keep drinking enough water, and think about using lip balm with calming ingredients like aloe vera or coconut oil. If the symptoms persist or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

I think an insect has bite me while I was sleeping, maybe an insect which is found in rainy season. It has bitten me on my butt and the area looks like a medium sized pimple with a white transparent layer on it. Since then I’m also experiencing a bit of cold and feverish
Female | 24
You have had a mosquito or some other insect biting you. The white transparent layer could be your body's way of protecting from the bite. Feeling cold and feverish after an insect bite is common as your body fights off any possible infection. Ensure the area is clean and put a mild antiseptic cream on the wound. If you experience any of the alarming signs i.e. increasing pain or redness, see a dermatologist.
