Answered on 2nd Aug '24
Herpes is a common virus. It causes itchy, painful sores. These blisters often appear around your mouth or private parts. You can get it through close contact. Herpes may seem bad, but doctors can give you antiviral medicine. Using protection during sex helps prevent spreading it too. Good hygiene habits are also key.

I am 27 year old living in ranchi kanke road , having serious problem of dandruff hairfall and my hair color is changing into white even some part of beard as well. Kindly help me with the treatment.
Male | 27
Dandruff in the scalp is due to excess sebum (natural oil) production along with increased activity of a fungus called Malassezia in the scalp. Antifungal shampoos containing Ketoconazole, Ciclopirox, selenium sulphide can help treat the dandruff. If it is severe, oral antifungals are also prescribed for a short duration. Salicylic acid, coal tar shampoos are also prescribed in case of excess flakiness of scalp. Hair fall may be due to dandruff, nutritional deficiencies, stress or due to genetic factors. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist who can diagnose the cause of hairfall and may suggest treatment accordingly. Trichoscopy of the scalp may help in understanding the nature of the scalp and condition. Nutritional supplements, Capixyl containing serum, Minoxidil solution, oral supplements containing vitamin and minerals are prescribed by the dermatologist to treat the hair loss. Change in hair colour in beard and scalp may be due to nutritional deficiencies or strong hair colours or genetic causes. Dermatologist’s help may be needed to treat the same. Calcium pantothenate containing supplements may help slow down the greying and sometimes restore the colour of hair.

Itching in my penis from 3,4 days
Male | 25
Having an itchy penis for several days is an unpleasant experience. Reasons behind the itch include infections, irritants like soaps and detergents, or allergies. Look for other signs: redness, odd discharge. Keeping the area neat, and dry may relieve discomfort. But if itching worsens or lingers, visit a dermatologist to identify and treat the cause properly.

There is peeling of the skin on the nails of the hands and the nails are also melting slightly
Female | 52
Skin peeling around the nails, and sometimes the actual nails can happen if hands are exposed to chemicals or water, frequently. Another possible reason is a lack of vitamins or a skin condition. To address this, just practice these things — avoid chemicals, wear gloves, eat healthy, and keep the skin of the hands moist. You can also consult a dermatologist for further treatments.

Hello I am Vanitha Kotian and my hair is pretty dry and brittle.which shampoo, oil and conditioner do u recommend
Female | 52
dry and fragile hair can result from many reasons such as genetics, poor nutrition or surrounding. On the other hand, it is always advisable to see a dermatologist who can inspect your scalp and strands of hair in order to establish exactly what has caused this condition. They can then offer specific hair care products and treatments that address your needs.

Hi I am taking esomeprazole, lipitor, lisinopril, citalopram and ropinerole. I want to know if it it safe to take anti sweat tablets. Thank you
Female | 59
Sweating is your body's natural way to cool down. Certain medications can increase sweat production as a side effect or be symptoms of underlying medical conditions. Anti-sweat tablets reduce sweat secretion but may interact with your current medications. It's crucial to consult your doctor for a safe solution. They can adjust your medications or suggest alternative treatments to address the root cause of your sweating. Always communicate openly with your doctor about any concerns or changes in your medication regimen to ensure your health is prioritized.

My sister put a caustic soda flake on her tongue and her lip is swollen. What is the best way to help her.
Female | 10
Your sister possibly injured her tongue due to caustic soda flakes. This can result in an enlargement and ache in the lip. The most effective treatment is to rinse her mouth with cool water for at least 20 minutes. This will contribute to the removal of any remaining chemicals and repair the damaged area. Let her utilize ice cubes to suck on to diminish the swelling. Tell her to consume cool water or milk to help with the vexation. Be alert for any wheezing or acute agony. If these signs arise, rush her to the emergency room immediately.

Sometimes dots appear on the penis, but don't panic. Maybe they're irritated follicles or small blood vessels. They could also signal eczema or a fungal infection. If you feel pain, itchiness, burning, or the dots persist, talk to a dermatologist. They'll identify the cause and recommend treatment. .

I was 26. I was obese. Recently i found crack on my under foot in upper part.
Female | 26
You are suffering from cracked heels. One of the reasons cracked heels can appear is if your skin gets very dry or if you’re carrying extra weight. Cracked heels are painful and may even bleed. To assist, you can consider using a gentle moisturizer on your feet daily and wearing comfortable shoes. However, if the cracks are too deep or the wounds are slow to heal, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist.

I Am 28 yr old. I get red marks on upper body(shoulders). Those are not painful and they get disappeared within 3 or 4 days.
Female | 28
Your issue might be dermatological, likely due to allergies, skin irritation, or insect bites. Fabrics or detergents used in washing could also be triggers. Try to identify what causes the red marks most often. If you notice a consistent reaction, consider avoiding the drug entirely. Consulting a dermatologist can help diagnose and treat the root cause effectively.

My private part as been itching me for the past two weeks now and it’s beginning to swell up what can I do now?
Male | 18
You may have an infection in your private area that has resulted in itching and swelling up. It can be caused by either a yeast infection, a skin reaction, or an STD. The most significant thing to do is to keep scratching to avoid more irritation. Try using unscented soap and wearing non-tight clothes. A proper diagnosis by a dermatologist is needed to get the right treatment.

Fungal infection not cure for long time after taking medicine, frequently occurr on skin on butt side
Female | 32
Fungal infections can make your skin red, itch, and sometimes hurt. These infections usually like to grow in warm and moist places, so butt skin can be the common spot. To help mop it up, keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothes, and apply antifungal creams or powders that the pharmacist recommends. To get it if it still comes back, you may need a stronger prescription from the doctor to get rid of it.

Hi, I am a girl of 19 years old. My boyfriend has given me a love bite on my breast and on back. I wanted to ask if this is normal? As I am feeling a bit sick and feverish. I want to know if this is okay to feel such way? For more information, earlier when i got a love bite, it was on neck and i faced neck infection. I had neck swelling. It got okay after medications though. But I want to know if there are chances for swelling this time too? Something like this? Or will it be okay with time and nothing will happen? Please clear. Thanks
Female | 19
A love bite can cause fever and sickness, it's normal. Your boyfriend's bite on the breast and back may have let bacteria enter broken skin. This causes infection - swelling and tenderness. Clean the area, use warm compress, take pain meds if needed. But if pus appears or symptoms worsen, get medical help right away.

Female | 36
The lymph node could be swollen due to one of your scalp cases or the infection in another part of your body. The sore and aching feeling you are experiencing is because your lymph node is fighting against the infection. Warm compresses and over-the-counter medications or painkillers might help for now. In case it does not get better, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist.

My hair is thinning in the middle of my head
Male | 20
You might be going bald from a spot above your head. This can happen as a result of male-pattern baldness. You might note that thinner hair is the case and your scalp is becoming more prominent. The triggers might be genetic factors and hormonal agents. Medication options such as minoxidil and finasteride can be considered but it is preferable to consult a dermatologist to obtain a personalized solution.

These problems can be attributed to hormonal imbalances or skin conditions. Good skincare practices, like using and maintaining a moisturizing product, will help to address the problem. You can consider hair removal methods as well. Eating a balanced diet and drinking water can also improve skin health. If these methods do not give positive results, then it is advisable to consult a dermatologist.

The inner thighs may darken due to many reasons. Rubbing thighs together, hormonal changes, excessive sweat, and being overweight can cause it. To lighten dark areas, keep them clean and dry.

Have some white dots in a cock
Male | 24
Spotting small white dots on your skin can feel a bit odd. Those little specks are likely Fordyce spots. These harmless bumps happen when oil glands get bigger than usual. Fordyce spots are super common, and lots of people have them. They're no big deal and don't need any special treatment. Keep washing your body like normal. If the spots bother you or seem unusual, it's a good idea to chat with a dermatologist. But in most cases, Fordyce spots are simply a natural part of healthy skin.
