Could the pale reddish skin on my penis be concerning?
I'm 30. I noticed a pale reddish skin at the cap of my penis. There is no inching or pain but it keeps drying and peeling off.

You may have a condition known as balanitis. When the skin on the tip of the penis becomes irritated, this can occur. It can be caused by poor hygiene, fungal infections or allergies. Even if it doesn’t hurt, keep the area clean and dry. Using a mild cream may also help with the peeling skin. If it doesn’t improve, it’s best to see a dermatologist.

I have private area itching and white patches small bumps ..I using candid b but no result
Male | 29
You may have a yeast infection known as candidiasis. This could cause itching, white patches, and small bumps in private areas. The candid B cream you are using may not be strong enough; try clotrimazole antifungal cream instead. Keep the area clean and dry, and wear loose clothes. Avoid using scented products down there as they can make it worse. If these signs do not improve, seek advice from a dermatologist.

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.

I have cut marks nd that cutted by knife.. marks are getting more visible day by day, I'm using glycerine but I can't see any effect, I can't visit the doctor cause my parents don't know abt theese cut marks, I wanna cure it naturally at home so please suggest something
Female | 18
It is not unusual for the untreated cut marks to turn into scars. Maybe the diluted glycerine solution will not be sufficient to help. You can consider adding some aloe vera gel to speed up the healing. Ensure the cut area is cleansed and well moisturized to let nature do the rest of the healing.

I am 27 years old female and have dry skin type. Lately my skin on the torso, waist and hip has become extremely dry & flaky. Even piling doesn't affect it. I then tried aveeno cream which has reduced flakiness, but it's still very tough to touch and skin on these areas has become stretchy as well as scaly. My grandmother had this skin. It's strange because skin everywhere else is normal, but there it's becoming old and wrinkled. I drink 2-3 litres water daily, although piling doesn't help but I still oil everyday. Pls help. I also take vitamin E capsules, sea cod, vitamin c chewables, and B complex capsules. My skin overall is dry and scalp has dandruff because of this too. There are sometimes small patches of dry skin at random areas like back, forearm and torso, and when I scratch away it goes off like flakes. But this dry, rough and wrinkled skin on my torso, waist and hip is bothering me.
Female | 27
There are a few things you can try to help with your dry, rough and wrinkled skin. First, make sure you are using a moisturizer that is specially formulated for dry skin. Look for ingredients like shea butter, cocoa butter, or almond oil. These will help provide moisture and nourishment to the skin. You may also want to try a richer cream, such as body butter or a balm, to provide extra hydration.
You can also try using a gentle exfoliator to help remove any dead skin cells and promote cell turnover. This will help the skin to look smoother and help with flakiness.
In addition to using moisturizers and exfoliators, you should also make sure you are getting enough vitamins and minerals in your diet. Vitamins A, C, and E are all important for healthy skin, as well as omega-3 fatty acids. Eating a balanced diet with plenty of fruits and vegetables can help you get the nutrients you need for healthy skin.
Finally, make sure you are drinking plenty of water throughout the day. This will help keep your skin hydrated and help prevent dryness.

You might have a skin condition called Pruritus Ani which is caused by sensations of itchiness and irritation in the area around the anus. These can be caused by various reasons including bad hygiene, fungal infection, and hemorrhoids. A consultation with a dermatologist or a proctologist is vital.

As per your symptoms it would appear that you are suffering from acne vulgaris. This condition may also lead to pimples, acne and dryness on the face. This may also be associated with the dandruff and hair fall. I suggest that you consult a dermatologist who will offer the right diagnosis and treatment protocol.

Hi I got a hot water burn in my penis last night and part of the skin is like peeling and red what should I do?
Male | 18
You have a burn on your penis from hot water, and now the skin is peeling and red. Burns can be painful so it’s important to take care of them. Gently clean the area with cool water and a mild soap. You could also use aloe vera gel or some kind of soothing cream to help it heal. Don’t wear tight clothes that will irritate it more either. If it still hurts or stays red after all this, talk to a dermatologist.

I have iron deficinicy.. my iron serum is 23. I have pigmentation on my face. I have treat my pigmentation by microneddling and prp. But i hv still dark spots on my face. When my iron deficency will be better then my skin will be clear or not???
Female | 36
The appearance of pigmentation on the face is a result of iron deficiency but not the only case. In case you still have dark spots after microneedling and PRP, make sure you consult a dermatologist. Improving iron status as a part of skin care may add to pigmentation treatment, but the key is not there.

I have acne form past 5 years and I have broken my pimples so I have scars and spots on my face my skin is oily plz tell me what to do
Female | 20
You've had this infection for a long time, and it's now your ongoing skin issue. One aspect of your condition is that it's almost inevitable to get a scar or spot here and there when you pop a pimple. Along with other factors contributing to this issue, oily skin can promote acne formation and expansion. Acne is a major skin concern caused by clogged hair follicles with oil and dead skin cells. If you're dedicated to improving your skin, using a gentle cleanser, avoiding picking at pimples, and choosing products with suitable ingredients can make a real difference, even if it's gradual. You should visit a dermatologist for proper treatment.

I have a rectangular patch of swelling or inflammation on my lower leg. It is about 4 inches in length and 3 inches in width. It has a small lump inside of it as well. I do not feel any pain nor do I think it is tender. I’ve had it for maybe about 5 or 6 moths and it has now gotten any smaller or bigger. The only medication I’ve. even taking is unisom for a few years now for insomnia and now for nausea because I am about 6 weeks pregnant. I also take prenatal. Why might I have these swelling/inflammation?
Female | 21
You may have a lipoma, a lump of fat lies beneath the skin. It is painless, harmless. Its size remains constant, generally. Your medications likely didn't cause it. Still, seek a doctor's examination for confirmation. If it grows, changes color, or brings pain, definitely consult a dermatologist.

mera white spot hua hai but color utna white nhi hai thik hone me kitna time lagega
Male | 28
Depending on what you are describing, it may be a type of skin disorder called vitiligo. With vitiligo, the cells that make the pigment in the skin are destroyed through the melanocyte process, thereby producing white spots on the skin. It is always best to book an appointment with a dermatologist.

Hair can become thinner, with less volume, or even fall out, leaving bare patches. Genetics and hormones play a role, and stress isn't helpful. A poor diet can also contribute, as well as some medical conditions. If it persists, seek expertise from a dermatologist.
