Epidermal psoriasis can make your skin look like a puzzle with indented edges. It is not always the case that you get white spots between your fingers. Covering flares with oil is not a good idea because it doesn't address the trigger. To address this problem, you should visit a dermatologist who can guide you on creams, ointments, or other prescribed medications for psoriasis. Washing your skin and reducing the number of patches can be helpful. Using milder soaps and applying moisturizers will also help.

Male | 19
It appears that you are suffering from heat-induced Urticaria. This condition is defined by the occurrence of hives on skin along with severe itching following contact with heat. I would recommend consulting a dermatologist with expertise in skin diseases. They could suggest an appropriate treatment plan to provide symptom relief.

I m 20 year old student. My skin type is oily nd I tried many skincare products like niacinamide dot and key and derma hyluronic serum. Which made my skin worse. Now I am having acne prone skin with nodules and scars, now i m just using nothing but a medimix soap. What should i do now ??
Female | 20
Nodules are deep, painful bumps under the skin. Oily skin can make acne worse. Some of the products may not fit your skin. Using only soap is alright but acne won't be treated by it. Use a mild cleanser and non-acne-causing moisturizer. Then, visit a dermatologist for alternatives consisting of prescribed products or treatments.

Small black burn marks from estim device under glans
Male | 20
Small burn marks under one's private parts can happen from using electronic devices. These marks may be black and caused by too much rubbing or heat. You'll likely feel tender, red, and sore there. Stop using the device right away. Gently wash the area with a mild soap and water. Apply a soothing cream like aloe vera to help it heal. If the burn marks stay or worsens, see a doctor to get checked out and treated properly.

Male | 18
You may have a mouth ulcer disease. These are small sores that can cause difficulties with eating and talking. They may be due to stress, injury from a sharp tooth, or specific foods. To speed up your recovery, avoid spicy or acidic foods and use a mouth rinse made of salt water. If they don't get better after one week or two, it's a good idea to go to a dentist or doctor for more advice.

Greetings sir my daughter is four years old she was some what black with your suggestion I want her for skin whitening treatment which one is permanent for her chemical peel or Laser treatment please suggest me sir
Female | 4
Neither of these treatments is recommended for children under the age of 18. Chemical peels and laser treatments are not permanent skin whitening treatments. These treatments can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots, but they will not permanently lighten the skin.

I am a 16 year old female who has only one known allergy, (dust mites), but my hands are hot and seem to swell slightly after using Clorox wipes for an extended period of time today. This has never happened before. My finger looks odd as well, and I’m concerned.
Female | 16
You may be having a slight allergic reaction to the Clorox wipes. Hot, swollen hands and a strange-looking finger could mean contact dermatitis, which happens when your skin doesn’t agree with certain things. Wash your hands with cool water and mild soap to make them feel better, then put on some lotion that will soothe them. Don’t use those wipes right now – and if it doesn’t get any better or feels worse at all after doing this stuff try talking with a dermatologist.

Male | 52
It could be because of a fungus attack, termed Candidiasis, also the one known as oral thrush. This can happen after unprotected sex, smoking, or using alcohol. To deal with this practice, antifungal remedies are written by a dermatologist, and refrain from smoking and heavy drinking. Using a good personal hygiene routine has other essential roles to play, too.

1 month ago a pet dog scratched me after washing the area with soap there is no mark, redness etc till now so I don't have to worry right
Male | 13
No mark or redness from that dog scratch seems good. But pet scratches sometimes let bacteria get in the skin. Look out if it swells up, hurts, or oozes pus. For now, keep washing it clean with soap and water. But if those issues pop up, get medical advice from a dermatologist.

Hiii im a 19yo female. I recently shared a drink and a cigarette with a guy i just found out has herpes. He didnt have any sores on his mouth so im wondering if is possible to catch oral herpes by those contacts? Thank u in advance
Female | 19
Oral herpes can be spread through sharing drinks or cigarettes, even when no sores are visible. Symptoms might include tingling, itching, or blisters on or around the lips. There is no cure for herpes; however, antiviral drugs can help control outbreaks. Don't forget to follow safe practices to protect yourself from such infections in the future.

Hi , i’m a 24 year old arab woman i have fair skin and i have keratosis pilaris so i wanted to get rif of them by getting co2 laser on my whole arm??♀️ Well i did a really strong dosage that led to an infection on the burned skin And later on it turned to hyperpigmentation that j cant get rid of , also i have these weird red splotches on the burned skin that reaper randomly What do you recommend ?
Female | 24
The CO2 laser procedure was intense. This led to infection and dark spots. The red patches might be because your skin is healing. To help with dark spots, you can try gentle products. Like serums with vitamin C or niacinamide. Remember to protect from the sun too. If red patches remain or get worse, see a dermatologist.

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.

You have been suffering from allergic rhinitis (hay fever) for the last two years. Symptoms like sneezing, running nose, and congestion can be very annoying. Usually, the things that trigger this allergic reaction are pollen, dust mites, or pet dander. Antihistamines like Montas-L can help you by blocking the allergy response and thus, reducing the symptoms. The regular intake of your medication is necessary for the proper control of your allergy.

You have a recurrent fungal infection in your lower body. Warm and humid conditions, such as excessive sweating, are the possible causes of fungal infections. Symptoms are characterized by redness, itching, and a rash. To help, ensure the area is dry and clean, wear breathable clothes, and apply antifungal creams. Also, strictly follow the given directions for the cream to notice the improvement.

Male | 34
Common reasons include infections like folliculitis, herpes, and fungal problems. These arise from shaving, sweating, and lack of hygiene. Ease the discomfort and heal the sores by staying clean, and dry. Also, try wearing loose-fitting clothes. Use over-the-counter creams pharmacists suggest. But if it worsens or won't go away, see a dermatologist. They'll properly diagnose and treat you.

Skin irritation and itches
Female | 27
Skin irritation, that itchy, red feeling can come from many sources. Dry skin is common, but also allergies and bug bites. Some skin conditions cause it too. Your skin may itch, turn red, and develop a rash. Cool showers soothe irritated skin, as do moisturizing creams. Avoid scratching though, it worsens irritation. If symptoms persist or worsen, see a dermatologist.
