What is the best keloid-safe treatment for sebaceous cyst?
I have sebaceous cyst on my back with inflammation. doctor suggested for surgical removal. But I have keloid history, what treatment should I go for
Cosmetologist
Answered on 11th June '24
Given your history with keloids, having the cyst surgically taken out could result in the formation of keloids. Keloids are raised scars that grow beyond the original injury site. Instead of opting for an operation, you may want to think about other alternatives such as steroid injections or laser therapy. These treatments can help to decrease inflammation and prevent the formation of keloids. It is important to talk about these options with a dermatologist so that you can choose the one that fits you best.

You may have a skin condition called folliculitis which can cause itching and tiny red bumps on your skin. This happens when the follicles become inflamed caused by the growth of hairs. Try washing with soft soap, avoiding tight clothes, and keeping your skin hydrated. If it doesn't itching, see a dermatologist for more advice.

Your talking about alopecia areata. Main line of treatment for alopecia areata is local and intralesional steroids. Oral and local immunosuppressant are also very effective. Pls try for TOFACITINIB 5MG TWICE A DAY AFTER FOOD. Reach out to me or any dermatologist for further evaluation and second opinion - Dermatologists in India.

Face pimple and itching and spot
Female | 23
Pimples are a result of pore closures on the skin due to the plugs made of oil and dirt. Itching might be a symptom of your skin being inflamed. To relieve the problem, gently clean your skin with a mild cleaner, don't pick or squeeze the pimple, and use a spot treatment with ingredients such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.

Female | 31
Acne is multi-factorial problem, hormonal disease in most of the patients, diet, exercise, hygiene, grooming practices play important role.so visiting dermatologist and taking treatment is one option and maintain treatment for long time because if you are getting any improvement with the treatment then continue it otherwise dermatologist will change it. there are few things that has to be taken care. One thing not to apply hair oil, avoid having dandruff or use anti-dandruff shampoos weekly on the scalp, using face washes that have salicylic acid or glycolic acid. Avoid using thick greasy moisturizers or cream on the face. Use only creams that are gel based or water based. Drink plenty of water, avoid fat or cheesy diet, exercise 10-15 mins of the day. Topical steroids have to be avoided. Topical antibiotics like Clindamycin are useful. Oral Antibiotics or retinoids are advised.

Female | 18
You may be experiencing a condition called nipple eczema. This might make patches of white skin around the nipple. It may also itch or hurt sometimes. Allergic reactions, harsh soaps, or dry skin can be reasons for the nipple eczema. In addition, use mild and unscented products on your breasts and use a good quality moisturizer. If it's persistent, you should also approach a dermatologist for more preference.

I have tiny dots on my testicles
Male | 17
Noticing small spots or bumps on your scrotum can be concerning, but there’s no need to panic. These might be harmless. They could be little blood vessels called angiokeratomas lying close to the skin's surface. Sometimes there’s no need to do anything about these spots. You should see a dermatologist if they are itchy, painful, or annoying.

I feel itching all over my body and the rashes disappear suddenly after few minutes and again appears after few hours
Female | 17
You may have a medical condition known as hives. They usually cause an itchy rash that comes and goes within a couple of minutes. They are sometimes caused by allergies, stress, or infections. Over-the-counter antihistamines and triggering agent avoidance, like certain foods or products, can help with the itching. If hives are still there or getting worse, a visit to dermatologist would be good.

Pls my daughter has this swell on the thumb with pus in it ,very painful Pls what medication should I get for her ??
Female | 10
It might be a infection that can be sometimes caused by bacterias or other microorganism. In my view, you need to see a dermatologist. They may prescribe antibiotics or tell you to open and wash a puss from the swelling. Next steps include making sure the area is kept clean and covered which can slow down the spread of the infection.

Female | 16
A troublesome ear infection is what you're saying. The pus and clear goop coming out, the hard lumps, and the pain, are examples of a serious issue. The infection could have gone into your ear cartilage and therefore caused the swelling and rawness. A visit to a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis is a must as some antibiotics may be prescribed to kill the infection and prevent further complications.

I went to a dermatologist for hair loss. He said it could be genetic, but he still wanted me to get a vitamin D test. He prescribed me Ketoral Shampoo, Proestee Anti-Hair Loss Serum, and Pharmaceris H Stimupeel. I have been using the Ketoral Shampoo and Proestee Anti-Hair Loss Serum for a week now, but my hair loss has increased. Is this increase temporary? Or are the doctor's recommendations not suitable for me? When will these medications take effect and my hair loss stop? I also had a vitamin D test done yesterday and my vitamin D level was very low, so I was prescribed a vitamin D supplement. Could my hair loss be due to vitamin D deficiency rather than genetics?
Male | 27
Hair loss happens for many reasons. Your genes play a role. Nutrient deficiencies are a factor too. Your dermatologist prescribed tests and medicines. They help find the cause and treat the issue. Hair loss may get worse before improving. Stick with the products prescribed by your doctor. Give them time to work, usually 3-6 months. Lack of vitamin D contributes to hair loss. A vitamin D supplement aids hair health over time.

I have rashes on my thigh and tip of my penis itchy
Male | 22
A yeast infection seems likely. Yeast can grow excessively, causing reddish rashes and itchiness. Warm, damp areas like the groin are prone. Keeping dry, wearing loose clothing, avoiding sugary foods - these steps aid. Over-the-counter antifungal creams may also help. However, if symptoms persist, consult a dermatologist for further assistance.

You must have a private consultation with a dermatologist or a piercing specialist today. The outcome of piercing-related problems can be life-threatening because the more time you are leaving the infection untreated, the worse it will become.

After prolonged use of corticosteroids, my glans became very red and after a while it healed. After 2 months of healing, I went to have sex but white spots started to appear on the glans. Now my glans is completely white and without sensitivity to touch and temperature (heat and cold).
Male | 26
You might be dealing with balanitis xerotica obliterans (BXO). This issue can arise after prolonged corticosteroid use. The telltale signs are redness, white patches, and reduced sensations in the glans penis. To properly address BXO, medical intervention is key. Doctors prescribe creams or perform surgery. Don't delay - promptly consult a dermatologist for accurate diagnosis and suitable treatment.

I have a bad case of chaffing and heat rash on my personal areas..I got cream that works at home in the AC.. but when I'm at work in the heat it flares back up... What can I do??
Male | 43
You are likely experiencing a heat rash and chafing in your private areas. This usually happens because perspiration becomes trapped against the skin thereby irritating. Signs may include redness, itching, and sometimes little bumps. To assist with this, tighten any loose-fitting clothes, stay cool, and ensure it’s dry down there. Apply some soothing ointment and be sure to take breaks if possible.

She is 25year female have a bump seems like a large pimple just under jawline (4-5cm in diameter) its hurting and been there for 4 days now
Female | 25
The bump that is under your jawline could be a swollen lymph node. They typically appear as warm, reddish, and sore. Treating it at home, you can soak warm compresses in the area and maintain cleanliness. If the condition doesn't get better in a few days or worsens, you might have to visit a dermatologist for other treatments.

I'm 30. I noticed a pale reddish skin at the cap of my penis. There is no inching or pain but it keeps drying and peeling off.
Male | 30
You may have a condition known as balanitis. When the skin on the tip of the penis becomes irritated, this can occur. It can be caused by poor hygiene, fungal infections or allergies. Even if it doesn’t hurt, keep the area clean and dry. Using a mild cream may also help with the peeling skin. If it doesn’t improve, it’s best to see a dermatologist.

The back of my neck has swollen a lot and I am not feeling any pain at all, so what should I do for it? My name is Hema Maurya and I am 18 years old.
Female | 18
It seems your neck is a bit swollen but you are not feeling any pain. This could be caused by an infection or a swollen gland. Sometimes, it can occur without any serious reasons as well. However, the priority is to have a doctor take a look at it to be on the safe side. They may have to conduct some tests to be able to tell what is going on.
