Red Veins on Breasts: Causes & Treatment Options

i’m 16 years old and recently a lot of small red veins appeared on my breasts that feel bruise like. what could this be?

1 Answer

Answered on 13th Aug '24

There­ are red lines re­sembling bruises on your breasts. The­se could be small, burst blood vesse­ls known as spider veins. These­ may appear in teens due­ to growth, hormones, or skin changes. They stand out more­ if your skin is light. Wear well-fitted bras and avoid e­xcessive pressure­ to reduce their appe­arance. If they worry you, discuss them with a dermatologist.

Can my skin color still return after not taking iron supplements for a year

Female | 19

Yes, definitely! Starting iron supplementation can help improve your skin color. Symptoms of low iron, like pallor and fatigue, can show up in your body. Most iron deficiency is due to not getting enough iron in your diet. A balanced diet should include iron-rich foods like spinach and meat. Seek advice from a healthcare professional for suitable recommendations.

I am suffering from a postpartum hair fall issue. What should I do?

Female | 30

Up to 50% of new moms suffer from normal postpartum hair loss due to such hormonal shifts. It typically spikes around 4-5 months and subsides in a period between six to twelve months. Pay attention to general health, softer hair washing and scalp massage. If hair loss is heavy, prolonged, or associated with scalp problems then it’s advised to see a dermatologist. You are not the only one, and your hair will likely be back to normal!

i am using finasteride 1mg daily for hair loss . i have read that it can cause prostate cancer . is this true or can i take it without any worry

Male | 26

Finasteride is mostly safe to use for most people and it's not a direct cause of prostate cancer. Nevertheless, it can have an impact on the behavior of the prostate which in turn, may result in a PSA test result being altered. If you have concerns, it's always best to talk to your doctor.

looking inflammation or can say Balanitis infection on front skin. Please suggest which doctor to consult Dermatologist/Urologist/Analogists or sexologist.

Male | 60

Balanitis is an inflammation of the skin located at the front end of the penis. If addressing the issue, professionals, such as dermatologists and urologists, who are experts in skin and urinary system disease may be consulted. The issue of balanitis springs from a lack of cleanliness, some skin conditions, or various infections. Recommendations from doctors include cleaning the area, prescription of medicated creams, or, if there is an infection, they might need to take antibiotics.

I am 25 year old women. My hairfall was extreme from april and i can see a lot of hairs on my pillow floors and they were so fragile and now it has reduced but my scalp is visible under light. I had pcos and in january i had passed a large blood clot with sever pain in palvis but now my periods are also normal. I had extreme emotional stress as my mother was severly ill. I am concerned about my hair my hairline is intact but top and crown area is affected and diffuse thinning is there

Female | 25

Hair loss can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, or health issues like PCOS. In your case, the shedding might be related to these factors. The good news is that it should improve as your menstrual cycle regulates. Eating well, managing stress, and self-care will help your hair grow back stronger.

Itching only on left side particular side only

Female | 34

When the itching is only on one side of your body, it might mean that something is irritant your skin. Occasionally, allergies or dermatitis that is caused by eczema can be the reasons for that. Moreover, nerve disorders or infections may be the causes. Look if you have any rashes or skin discoloration. Try to refrain from scratching as it may cause an infection. The application of a light moisturizer or a calm cream can give some relief.

So i was punctured by a small metal and i washed and disinfected it i also got my tetanus shot last year what should i do?

Male | 16

It seems like you’ve done a good job taking care of the metal puncture wound by cleaning and sterilizing it. Because you had a tetanus injection in the past year, you are likely to be immune to tetanus. However, watch for redness, swelling, heat, or pain in the area. If any of these symptoms occur, seek medical attention.

I am using DEMELAN for my underarms which has become black due to use of Deodorants and Fungal infections for near about 1 month. But i cannot see any changes. What to do now?

Male | 29

It might be that your underarms have become darker due to some other reason. So, it is best to consult an experienced dermatologist. The dermatologist may examine your condition to know the exact cause of it and determine a suitable treatment accordingly.
