Why Do I Have Skin Bumps, Dark Spots, Salicylic Acid Purging?
I'm 19 years old. Female. My face is full of tiny bumps, whiteheads, blackheads and dark spots.. I've been using salicylic acid from around 2 months now. But now I'm getting more tiny bumps all around my face and my face is getting dark.. is it purging or I'm using a wrong product..

Small pimples, whiteheads, blackheads, and dark spots appearing together is no fun. Sometimes salicylic acid makes things seem worse initially, a process called "purging." If it's been two months without improvement, that product might not work for your skin type. A simple solution: talk to a dermatologist for advice tailored to your needs.

My all body itching and scar
Male | 25
You may have a skin disorder such as eczema. Eczema, a condition that causes your skin to itch and scar at the same time, could be one of the reasons. Scratching your skin at night may lead to red, swollen areas. Eczema is often triggered by allergies, stress, or harsh substances like certain soaps. Applying non-irritating, unscented massage oils made of natural ingredients is beneficial for your skin. It is essential to hydrate your skin regularly and avoid harming it while trying to relieve the itching to prevent scarring. If the itching and scarring persist, see a dermatologist for expert advice.

My mother has developed red patches on skin all over her body. Initially it occurs as a small red patch and then it widens and spreads . These red patches have occurred on her neck, breast, tummy, legs, head, back, elbow , everywhere. She has also developed cuts on her finger. It itches and burns very much. What is the diagnosis of this skin disease?
Female | 55
Your description of the symptoms leads me to believe that your mother has a skin condition called eczema. Eczema is characterized by the appearance of red, itchy patches on the skin. It can be caused or aggravated by certain substances or environmental factors. To alleviate the symptoms, it is necessary to maintain the skin's hydration and avoid irritants. Using mild soaps and wearing comfortable, breathable clothes can also be helpful.

Male | 21
You are dealing with a penile skin infection. Among the symptoms you mentioned, itching, redness, and dryness are the most common signs of this type of infection. The causes could come from fungus or bacteria. For treatment, you should start with the habit of keeping it clean and dry. Another option could be to use over-the-counter antifungal cream, but if you are not getting better, it is best to go to the dermatologist and get more treatment.

Sore arm after tick bite removal
Male | 29
If you develop arm pain after the removal of a tick bite, there is a chance that mouth parts are left in your skin. This may lead to an inflammatory response and pain. You should get evaluated by a dermatologist or an infectious disease specialist.

I have hair loss due to ‘Alopecia’ so doctor told to apply panderm cream is that ok
Male | 28
Alopecia causes hair loss. Panderm cream is not recommended because it contains steroids and can have side effects on the skin, potentially making the condition worse. It's better to see a dermatologist for proper treatment options like topical medications or injections.

I'm suffering from scalp folliculitis since 2 years . I have consumed various medication as advised earlier (Tablet doxycycline, tablet metronidazole, tablet clindamycin,tablet isotretinoin).these medications ka affective only till I take the medicine and then the pustules reappear. These are very painful and very itchy .
Female | 21
This is when the hair follicles on your head become infected leading to painful sores with pus which are also itchy. I can see that the drugs that you have used before don’t seem to work well for you in the long run. One should visit a dermatologist who might prescribe stronger medications or other treatments such as medicated shampoos or creams for clearing up these infections and preventing their recurrence.

Female | 19
You could be facing excessive hair thinning and loss due to several reasons like stress, poor diet, or hormonal changes. Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist to diagnose the problem. However, focus on a rich supply of vitamins and minerals, as well as avoiding harsh chemicals on the hair after consulting a dermatologist.

So about a week ago i was prescribed some antibiotics for my UTI. He also prescribed me fluconazole in case the antibiotics he gave caused a yeast infection. I kinda noticed the antibiotics wasn’t helping bc it was still hurting when i urinate and during sexual intercourse along with it still being red down there and so i took the fluconazole last night and a few before i took it i noticed like 3 red bump like things in the left side crease of my private, i was bit scared of what it might be, i woke up it didn’t look as bad but there was a few more. it has been itching bc of the yeast infect and it hasn’t been itching these past two days but im a little nervous on what the little bumps could be. could it maybe be from the yeast infection or sweat bumps or what
Female | 18
Perhaps you have a yeast infection or a fungal infection in the private area. Yeast infections can cause redness, itching, and sometimes small bumps. These bumps are most likely due to the infection and not sweat bumps. To help this, complete your prescribed fluconazole and ensure the area is clean and dry. Avoid tight clothing and wear cotton underwear. If the symptoms do not go away or get more severe, it’s always good to check with your urologist.

I have a deep and long stretch marks on my left shoulder, I consult many more dermatologist and take treatments but no use
Male | 26
Stretch marks are almost permanent. You can reduce it to an extent. but not completely make it erased. You have to take laser PRP treatment for that.

Hi, I'm 21 years old, for the past few years I've been experiencing skin irritations, now i have a lot of dark spots on my body and face, I don't know how to overcome this problem
Male | 21
You might be dealing with pesky skin irritations and annoying dark spots. Itching, redness, or lumps can eventually cause spots to form on your skin. This can happen due to sun exposure, acne breakouts, or certain skin conditions. Don’t worry too much because there are ways to address this issue. Use mild soap when washing, always wear sunscreen, and consult a dermatologist for advice. They might prescribe creams to help fade the marks and improve your skin condition.

Skin infection in lower waist area
Male | 56
A skin infection was likely happening in the lower waist region. These infections happen when bacteria enters tiny cuts or hair follicles. You might notice redness, warmth, pain, and sometimes pus oozing. Keeping that area clean and dry is crucial. An over-the-counter antibiotic cream can help clear the infection. However, if no improvement occurs, visit a dermatologist.

on Saturday morning I bought some trousers from a second-hand market, and I tried them on there at the market after about 6 hours I noticed some red bumps that scratched my lower leg, there are about 8 red bumps of about 1 cm on the whole leg
Male | 15
Redness and bumps appeared on your leg. It seems like an allergic reaction to materials in those trousers. The red marks could be hives or dermatitis from contact. Wash with gentle soap and water. Cool compresses reduce irritation and swelling. If itchy, antihistamines provide relief. However, if symptoms worsen instead of improving, visit a dermatologist for proper treatment

I have hair loss and hair thinning my father have bladness
Male | 23
Hair thinning and loss often happen due to various reasons. Our genetics play a role; baldness in fathers increases changes in children. Additionally, stress, poor nutrition, and illnesses contribute to hair problems. Maintaining good diet, managing stress, and gentle handling of hair help address this issue. Using special shampoo, treatments may also promote healthy hair. Visit a dermatologist if the problem continues.
