Answered on 27th Sept '24
A possible reason for the red patches on your penis glans could be the adverse reaction to post-exposure prophylaxis tablets, which is a medication used to prevent HIV infection after potential exposure. This is a reaction known as a drug rash. To avoid this, it is essential to inform a dermatologist. They may suggest a different medication or recommend ways to manage the rash, such as using gentle skin care products or applying a soothing cream.

The acne could be due to hormonal changes in the body
You can start by using a benzoyl peroxide facewash. Depending on the stage of acne whether more of comedones or white heads or black heads or pus filled acne a medical line of treatment can be started. Topical application of clindamycin and adaphelene can be given .However these need to be given under the supervision of a dermatologist. You can visit best dermatologist in mumbai for quick treatment

Hello I'm completed vaccine of ant rabies last may 22, 2024, but my cat bite me today, do I need to get vaccinated again?
Male | 15
Your rabies vaccine was completed last May, so you’re protected from getting infected by it. However, if a cat bit you today, watch out for any fever, headache or weakness that is abnormal. Seek medical attention immediately should you see any of these symptoms.

Iam 28years old female Iam having small bumps in bikini area I want it to be treated
Female | 28
It looks like ingrown hairs in your bikini area might be what you are possibly struggling with. These little bumps occur when hair doubles back into the skin rather than growing out. They sometimes lead to redness, itching, or even pain. To assist in healing this, softly scrub the area, shun tight clothes, and think about warm compresses. If the problem persists, visit a dermatologist.

My face having to much pimple and acne.my skin type is oily which facewash and serum I use for my skin please give me suggestions
Female | 24
Oily skin is common and can lead to pimples and acne. The symptoms are so shiny skin, big pores, and sometimes breakouts. The cause of oily skin is the excessive sebum production by the skin. Salicylic acid face wash to unclog pores will suffice for this purpose. Oil control is also possible with a serum containing niacinamide.

I have taken an infection injection three weeks ago but haven't gotten any relief. What should I do now?
Male | 23
Rashes on your penis, body, and balls could be a result of infections, allergies, or just irritation by soaps or fabrics. It is therefore essential to visit a dermatologist who will identify the problem. After that, they can give you medication that will help clear them. Remain hopeful- with proper care everything will be alright.

Skin redness without itching
Male | 20
If your skin turns red without feeling itchy, there might be a few causes. This redness can happen when your skin is sensitive to what touches it such as some fabrics or lotions. It may also result from temperature changes or stress. Use gentle fragrance-free products on your skin and keep it hydrated. Visit a dermatologist if the redness continues or gets worse.

My age is 27 .I have acne problem for around 10 yrs..Can i take tretinoin tablet 5mg lifelong on a daily basis..this stops my acne breakouts but if i stop it again my acne starts coming again. Is it ok to take any tablets on a daily basis to prevent acne breakouts
Male | 25
Acne is red bumps on the skin. It is common for young people like you. Acne happens when skin makes lots of oil and gets blocked. Taking tretinoin tablets for a long time is not a good idea. It is better to find why the skin gets bumps. Maybe try new skin routines with dermatologist's help.

Infections like these can be the hard-headed ones. It's crucial to seek advice from a healthcare professional to find out the most effective treatment option. Anti-scars are supposed to vanish with time, but some treatments can help improve their appearance more quickly. Continue your treatment calmly and steadily, and do not be afraid to get advice from your dermatologist.

I think I may have the STD/STI virus called Herpes. There are tiny little pink bumps that have been on my penis for a while now.
Male | 23
It is really important to keep monitoring and watching any changes occurring in your body. These small pink pimples that you see might be due to Herpes. Having sores, blisters, and itching are the common outcomes when you get an infection. A virus caused by herpes simplex is spread by the transmission of proteins from the infected source to the recipient's body. But the only certain way till the moment it is still unconfirmed is to get tested by a professional health worker.

I have got red tiny tiny spots on my arch of the foot
Female | 23
You might be dealing with petechiae– tiny red spots caused by small bleeds under the skin. These can show up when you have been, say, pushing too hard while on the toilet. Certain infections and some meds can also produce them. To get rid of petechiae hang loose, put your feet up often, and wear loose well-fitting shoes. In case these suggestions don’t help or other things are bothering you… get in touch with a dermatologist.

Hello doctor ,I’m Harsha 23 years old , and I’m suffering from fever from day before yesterday, Along with it I did get few res spots all over the body,and body is so itchy , also my main consent is I do have leg pain and I’m unable to walk unable to stand also and I just observed face is turning red and slight swelling. Just want to know what kind of problem I’m I suffering from
Female | 23
You may be experiencing a viral fever with a skin rash, a condition known as viral exanthem. The leg pain, swelling, and difficulty walking could indicate inflammation in your joints, which is referred to as viral arthritis. These symptoms are often associated with viral infections like dengue or chikungunya. I recommend getting plenty of rest, staying hydrated, and using over-the-counter pain relievers for relief. If your symptoms worsen or persist for an extended period, it's important to consult a dermatologist.
