I'm having big stretch marks on body.

Answered on 1st Oct '24
Stretch marks are common and appear when the skin is stretched significantly. They can be purple, red, or silver, depending on how long they’ve been there. Causes include rapid growth, weight changes, and pregnancy. Solutions include using moisturizers, and creams, and maintaining a healthy weight. While they usually fade over time, they may not completely disappear.

I am 23 year old. sometimes before I was suffering from HSP , now I recovered from disease but some spot are appread on my legs , so please help me out with any cream or ointment for removing the spot?
Female | 23
It may be that the points are healing or that the disease left some changes behind in the skin. One thing that could help you get rid of those spots is to apply a nice hydrating cream or lotion with vitamin E or aloe vera. Note that outbreaks can take a little longer to fade away, yet hydrating your skin can help a bit.

I am 28 yo female and recently got sclerotherapy done on both legs (last Wednesday so it has been over a week). My veins have gotten worse, they are purple and more visible and quite sensitive to the touch. There is no bruising. My dermatologist said I may have had an allergic reaction to the treatment and suggested I get antihistamines. Will the veins subside?
Female | 28
Veins do appear more visible naturally after sclerotherapy treatment, but they usually improve over time as the body reabsorbs the treated veins. Its best to discuss your concerns with your dermatologist and follow the recommended treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting or standing and to wear compression stockings as recommended to decrease swelling and heal faster.

Hello Doctor, I am a 30 year old female and I recently noticed open pores on my face, what should I do? My daily routine is: use himalaya neem face wash, then moisturize skin and I happen to have oily & dull skin. Can you pls suggest what should I do? Thank you!
Female | 30
I would like to start by recommending a daily skincare routine for the problems you are facing. Start with Oil control cleansers with AHA's or BHA's to clear the oil and dirt from your face 2-4 times a day. Use a Vit C serum or day serum in the morning if you are at home and you can add sunscreen on top if you are going to go out and will get exposed to sunlight. Evening, after wash use a toner to neutralize and calm your skin. Before bed, use a coat of moisturizer and additional retinol-based anti-aging serum to finish. If it's a major concern, please contact a dermatologist.

Leg ko bahut khujali ho Rahi hai or usme se Pani bhi nikal Raha hai redness or swelling hai
Male | 48
There are signs of a leg infection. Redness, swelling, itching, fluid show it. A cut or bug bite causes infections. An antibiotic cream helps clear infections. Medication also helps. Keep the leg area dry, clean.

I have Fungal dermatitis on my face, neck & back and it won’t go away. I’m not sure the cause (cessation of birth control, overuse of other products, diet, etc) but when I treat it with anti-fungal products it sometimes diminishes, but keeps returning. This has gone on for 6 months. Can someone PLEASE point me in the right direction?
Female | 32
You may have a persistent form of fungal dermatitis. There are symptoms such as red itchy patches on the back, neck, and face. The fungus does well on the skin in warm places with lots of moisture. The causes can be triggered by changes in hormones, using too much products, or eating habits. Keep the areas clean and dry should be done to solve this problem. It would worsen the condition if heavy oils or creams are applied because of this reason. Also, make sure anti-fungal medications are used as directed only. Do not share personal items like clothes and towels with others if you don’t want them to get infected. If the condition does not go away, please visit a dermatologist.

Male | 31
You may be having a skin disorder known as vitiligo. Vitiligo is a condition in which parts of the skin turn white due to a lack of pigmentation. Problems like the skin shortage of pigmentation appear in white patches due to vitiligo disease. The methods of treating vitiligo can be quite difficult, but they can be handled with the help of some medicines like calming creams, phototherapy, and sometimes surgery. Not using sunscreen and the nervousness of a greater cause can intensify the symptoms. Visit a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.

Iam 36 years old I have oily skin with open pores I need some moisturizer for.my skin to.look fresh kindly suggest
Female | 36
You need a non-comedogenic moisturiser which doesn’t cause any breakout or add to the oily state of the skin. Squalene, ceramide containing moisturisers which do not block the pores are recommended for oily skin. Please consult a dermatologist for thorough analysis of your skin to get a customised prescription suitable for your skin. Each one has a unique skin and has to use best suitable products to maintain a healthy skin. Open pores can be reduced by using retinol containing creams at bedtime. If they are severe procedural treatments like laser toning, micro needling radio frequency can help.

If it happens you touch the wet nose of a cow with your bare fingers in broken or chipped nails, you should visit a doctor in time. Walk into a dermatologist clinic for a detailed assessment and appropriate advice about the possibility of risk and further medication if necessary (PEP).

I have a very thick foul smell dark underarms as well dark neck and itching underarms
Female | 28
You may have a condition named acanthosis nigricans. It can bring about thick, dark, smelly skin in places such as the underarms, and neck. Scratching is another symptom that is often associated with this condition. Acanthosis nigricans is related to the fact that one is overweight or has diabetes. Adopting a healthier lifestyle is necessary to eat a well-balanced diet and exercise can help improve this condition.

Pretty sure ive got an ingrown toenail, and im pretty sure its infected. Ive been cutting it myself for over a year but its too painful. Side of my toe’s kind of swollen, its very red/pink. Also if I pull the skin on the side of the ingrown toe part away, pus will kinda leak out a bit. And as of today, its hurting to walk. If i even bump the top of my toe, i get searing pain in my toe. And as of right now, my foot and calf have this kind of ache-y pain.
Female | 20
The swelling, redness, and pus leakage plus pain are the symptoms of infected. The infection might get worse if no treatment is done. The pain and the ache in your foot and calf might be caused by the spreading of the infection. You have to see a dermatologist. They could recommend antibiotics or surgery to take away the ingrown toenail.

which doctors need to consult if having redness on front skin or can say Balanites case, Dermatologist/Urologist/Analogist/Sexologist
Male | 60
If you see redness in the front skin area then it might be a condition called balanitis. Symptoms of balanitis are the redness, swelling, and discomfort. Some of the reasons may be: using poor hygiene, infections, or skin conditions. Keeping the area clean, avoiding skin irritants including strong soaps, and wearing comfortable clothes can all help. If the symptoms do not go away or worsen, see a urologist or a dermatologist for the correct treatment.

I have very light black horizontal line on my fingernail
Male | 14
Typically it's nothing to worry about. These lines are usually due to small traumas to the nail or sometimes nutritional deficiencies. If the line is new and you can’t remember any injury, it’s best to keep an eye on it. Eating well-rounded meals and being gentle with your nails can help prevent these lines. If you notice any changes or other symptoms, seek advice from a dermatologist.

I am an 18 year old female and my nipples look really weird. around the bulb (?) of the nipple are patches of white skin.
Female | 18
You may be experiencing a condition called nipple eczema. This might make patches of white skin around the nipple. It may also itch or hurt sometimes. Allergic reactions, harsh soaps, or dry skin can be reasons for the nipple eczema. In addition, use mild and unscented products on your breasts and use a good quality moisturizer. If it's persistent, you should also approach a dermatologist for more preference.

I am having problem with my piercing the hole on the top of the skin is closed but the earing is stuck from behind what to do
Female | 20
Your piercing might cause some trouble. Sometimes, the hole on top of your skin may close up while the earring remains stuck from behind. This can happen when the skin wraps around the back of the earring. You might experience pain, redness, or swelling. To solve this, you can gently try pushing the earring out from the back or seek help from a professional piercer. Never force it out, as that can cause more harm.

I have an itchy scalp . I use shampoos to clean my scalp and also tried all home remedies as I could do but not getting cured. Kindly give me a solution.
Female | 19
Your scalp problem could be a medical issue that requires medical treatment. I recommend you should pay a visit to a dermatologist, who is a skin expert. They can detect the condition and recommend the medications or treatment option that should be taken. Avoid using any harsh chemicals on your scalp until you have been to a doctor.

Pimple problem and hair fall solution
Female | 23
Pimples develop when oil and dead skin cells obstruct hair follicles. Stress, hormonal changes, and insufficient face washing contribute. To address pimples, wash your face twice daily, refrain from picking them, and use gentle products. For hair loss, consume a balanced diet, manage stress, and use mild shampoos. Consulting a dermatologist may also prove beneficial if concerns persist.

I have acne problem. My dermatologist suggested me Acnilite soap but now it's not available. So please suggest me alternative to that
Female | 21
Acne is common, causing pimples and oily skin. Hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. You can try soap with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. These ingredients unplug pores and reduce acne. Gently wash your face, avoid harsh scrubbing.

Small mark on tip of penis. Almost like a pimple, becomes inflamed sometimes and turns red.
Male | 16
It seems you might have an issue such as balanitis, a common and naturally occurring thing among men. It can be seen in a small mole-like structure on the tip of the penis that is occasionally pus-filled, and it could get inflamed and red. It could also be connected with the frequency of penis washing, or it could even be traced back to some personal hygiene habits or yet another significant thing like any irritability that might be caused by soap or disinfectant. Frequent washing and drying of the area are key to a better outcome. The application of mild soaps and the avoidance of harsh chemicals are also helpful strategies. Wearing comfortable, breathable clothes and underwear made of cotton is also good. Wear only loose-fitting clothing and wear underwear made of soft, comfy cotton. When all else fails after a week or two and the results don't get better, it is a good time to see a dermatologist, possibly for further evaluation or to control the underlying issue.

I am 27 years old and yesterday I just did fat burner on my double chin and nose thread. Today my face swelling so bad. I couldn’t even open my mouth properly. My beautician gave me 2 types of medication. She ask me to take this medication to reduce swelling : 3 tablets of beazyme and 2 capsules of amoxicillin (0.5g) consume at once. Is this okay to take this dose at the same time?
Female | 27
Swelling after such procedures can be explained by the human body's natural reaction to the treatment. The doses your beautician recommended are likely to be too high to take at once. It is very important to schedule the doses of the medicine at the proper time and take only what is prescribed by a doctor to lower the chances of any complications. If the swelling stays the same or worsens, go to a dermatologist.
