Why White Spots on Face & New Ones on Hands?
I have white spots on my face from past 2 months...And now new ones on hands..What is the cause of the same?
Dermatologist
Answered on 7th June '24
It sounds like you may have a skin condition called vitiligo. Vitiligo causes white patches to appear on the skin because the pigment cells stop working. It is not contagious or harmful, but it can cause worry or self-consciousness. There is no cure for vitiligo, but treatments like corticosteroid creams or light therapy may help. It's best to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and management.

I am 18 years old and my lips are okay they are pinj but the area under my nose commonly known as upper lips is dark and gets more dark during summers ....this is not because of hair growth on upper lips but i dont know why its getting darker ...i have tried so many remedies like icing honey and all but that didnt work ...and it gets rough ...without putting cream on that surface i cannot survive because of its roughness
Female | 18
The dark spots could be from more melanin, which happens when the sun hits your skin. The rough feel might be dry skin. To help, try using a soft cream with SPF to keep your skin from the sun and wet. Also, remember to drink lots of water. You can also visit a dermatologist if the problem doesn't go away.

what happen if surgical spirit is not apply on skin before injection needle
Male | 23
Before putting a needle in your body, disinfecting the skin area is crucial. It prevents germs from entering, which could cause infections. Signs of infection may include redness, swelling, pain, and fever. So, always clean the skin first when getting an injection. Using surgical spirit kills germs on the surface.

Female | 29
Dealing with red skin rashes can seriously disrupt your comfort. These rashes might indicate lupus, an immune condition attacking healthy tissues. Protecting skin from sun, using gentle products, and reducing stress may help ease rashes. Seeing a dermatologist for evaluation and treatment is wise. Taking proper care of your skin and overall well-being is crucial when managing lupus-related rashes.

I applied undiluted dettol on my face [acne region (cheek and forehead) as it was bleeding] and forgot to wash it off. This later burnt my skin and now two months later theres a brownish patch which I am unable to get rid of regardless of how many scars removal cream and depigmenting creams I have used. Please help me recognise the problem with a solution for the same. Thank you.
Female | 16
Undiluted Dettol is said to cause burns and dark patches on the skin, especially the sensitive area of the face. The brownish skin spot that you have may be the result of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. To discolor the patch, avoid sun exposure by applying sunscreen, and think about visiting a dermatologist for chemical peels or laser therapy treatment.

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 have cut marks on hand can it be removed by laser treatment?
Male | 24
Laser therapy sometimes treats cut marks on hands. This targets damaged skin, fading marks by promoting new growth. Results are best on fresh red marks. However, older deep marks may not respond well. Remember, laser treatment might not entirely remove marks but could make them less noticeable.

Male | 25
The red and circular patches that have spread all over your body might be ringworm. This is a fungal infection that requires specific antifungal drugs like Terbinafine or Clotrimazole in many cases. The affected areas should be kept tidy and dry; loose clothes may also be worn.

The signs you are experiencing e.g. Redness, itching, and rashes may be due to various reasons. This could be because of your allergies, stress, weather changes, or some products that could be irritants to your skin. To solve this, you can use gentle skincare products, stop the triggers you might think are causing the issue, and regularly wash and hydrate your skin.

How can. I slim my face. And also tell treatment of skin rashes due to dryness
Female | 17
Losing extra weight is key to slimming your face. You should eat nutritious foods and work out frequently. Reduce unhealthy foods high in fat or sugar. Make exercise a daily habit. Dry skin can lead to irritated rashes, appearing red, rough, and itchy. Your skin lacks moisture, causing this issue. Use moisturizer daily. You can also visit a dermatologist.

I am suffering from skin disease
Male | 27
Eczema is a skin condition that can cause itching, redness, and sometimes swelling or cracked skin. It happens when your skin is sensitive to things like soaps, lotions, or even stress. To reduce itching and redness, use gentle, fragrance-free products and keep your skin moisturized. If the symptoms persist, it's important to see a dermatologist for further treatment.

I have keloid scars on my upper chest and one on the side of my stomach. Both are raised and very pigmented. I am looking for topical (non-invasive) treatment options that would reduce the appearance of the scars. I would like to understand which combination of gels and creams would work best for my goals? E.g applying silicone cream gels and layering silicone gel sheets, then using bio oil etc.
Female | 18
Keloid scars are marks that are raised and dark because of the excessive collagen. These scars can be highly annoying for people. Utilization of silicone gel or sheets will assist in the flattening and bleaching of the scars. Besides, the application of bio-oil can be even more effective in enhancing the look. Hence, the most important thing is the time and patience to stick to the treatment to be able to see the effects of it.

I have an infection on my penis. Please guide me for treatment
Male | 39
It sounds like a penis infection, which can be caused by either bacteria, fungi, or a virus. Symptoms like redness, pain, itching, swelling, or discharge may occur. To treat, the patient should keep the part clean and dry, avoid sexual contact, until it heals, and use a topical antifungal or antibiotic cream that can be purchased over-the-counter. If it doesn't improve, go to a dermatologist.

My husband suffering red patches on his neck nd under neck side 2 days after it spread in nose side pls suggest how to cure
Male | 48
Red patches have appeared on your husband's neck, under his chin—a bothersome sight! When spreading to the nose area, it may indicate contact dermatitis, a skin condition caused by exposure to an irritant. To relieve discomfort, have him avoid the irritant, gently cleanse the affected areas with water, and apply soothing creams like aloe vera or hydrocortisone. If symptoms persist, it's best to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I am having dull and dehydrated skin and dark spots.. Since 3 years I have pimple on nose later I poped it and it turned out to be a dark spot on my nose ???? ..
Female | 14
It seems like your skin is dry and lacks brightness; besides the pimple scars on your nose. Skin becomes dull due to lack of water in it. Spots get darker as a result of spots. Drink water and wash your face regularly using mild soap then apply lotion too. In addition, you can wear sunscreen to prevent the darkening of these patches further.

I'm 18 years old Male I have ringworm for long time I have used some many medicine but my pain haven't got relief what should I do
Male | 18
The main issue is that your skin manifests red, scaly, and itchy areas caused by a skin rash caused by a fungal infection known as ringworm. It's a little tricky but can be treated with regular oral antifungal therapy. Be certain to make sure that the injured place is clean and quite dry. You may also take a prescription antifungal cream or medicine from a dermatologist to help it go away completely. The treatment might take some time so be patient and consistent.

My whole body has been itchy for about a week now. Feet, legs, stomach, back, chest, arms, hands, and head have been so itchy. What’s wrong?
Female | 18
It seems like you could have dermatitis, a condition that can make your skin extremely itchy all over. Dry skin, allergies, or irritation from some products may be the cause of this. To help yourself feel better, try using mild lotion not scratching yourself too much and wearing loose clothes. Should this not work for you it would be good to see a dermatologist who will give you more advice on what to do about it.

I have like red dot on my ball looks like wart now sore
Male | 43
You probably have a red dot that resembles a wart on your private area and is now painful. This might be due to a viral infection known as "genital warts". It is very necessary to not scratch it as this will make the infection spread. Both diagnosis and treatment should be done by a dermatologist. Warts can be removed with medicines or procedures such as freezing or laser therapy.

Acne is one of the most prevalent skin problems, and it can be treated in several ways. For an accurate and tailored treatment plan, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist. They prescribe topical medications, oral antibiotics, or other treatments based on the degree and type of acne.

25 year old men, i have bumps on my penis, top left part, seems like herpes, im not sure, my groing is itching
Male | 25
Lumps that develop near the penis may be caused by several factors. They may be herpes if they're either tender or similar to blisters. Moreover, among other signs, you might also experience some irritation in the groin. Herpes is an infectious virus that can be transmitted from one individual to another through sexual intercourse. However, to make sure, it is better to visit your healthcare provider and undergo the necessary tests. Proper medication and expert advice are necessary for the prevention and care of it.

Hello , I'm facing diffuse thinning in my hair for the past one year my temples are so thin and my crown is also thin and overall volume of the hair is low I've been taking minoxidil for 3months I haven't seen any results how long does it take and should I start taking finasteride
Male | 18
Thinning hair can be due to several factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, and health conditions. Minoxidil takes around four to six months to start working so be patient. If you are thinking of using finasteride, it is a good idea to talk to your dermatologist first and find out if it is the right option for you.
