I have red ( sometimes itchy) splotches on my legs and arms near 5 days, I’ve taken antihistamines but the splotches haven’t gone
Female | 28
It could be that you have an allergy or a skin condition that you're trying to address. On further observation, there might be more factors contributing to this. I recommend that you book an appointment with a dermatologist who will give you a diagnosis and the right treatment.

Hello. Roughly one month ago I purchased a home wart removal kit to remove what appeared to be a benign wart on the back of my knee. The nozzle on this device broke during use, spraying an area roughly two inches in diameter on my skin with dimethyl ether. This caused a small superficial frostbite/burn, but didn't take care of the wart so I used another kit afterwards which used a swab rather than a nozzle. After using both of these, the area blistered. This blister quickly popped and fell off on its own after just a day, leaving an area of incredibly raw and bloody skin. I applied neosporin to this area regularly and kept it clean allowing it to heal. It's been a month now and while this area isn't entirely healed, it has protective skin on it now. My issue here is the area has a blotchy dark coloration now, looking almost like bruising. This seems odd to me given that it's been a month now, should I be worried about this coloration? There is no pain at the site, though the skin there is quite thin and rough.

Its natural to experience discoloration in skin especially after a blister or wound has occurred. color changes during the healing process. It could be due to hyperpigmentation which is the increased production of melanin in that area. This can result in a bruise-like appearance.

Chikan pox deep small circle on mouth in central Possible to remove this problem
Male | 31
A canker sore might trouble your mouth. They are small, round, and painful sores. Stress, spicy foods, or biting your cheek can cause them. Try over-the-counter rinses or gels to ease pain and speed healing. Soft foods are better; avoid spicy or acidic ones. Give it time - around one or two weeks - and it should disappear on its own.

I think an insect has bite me while I was sleeping, maybe an insect which is found in rainy season. It has bitten me on my butt and the area looks like a medium sized pimple with a white transparent layer on it. Since then I’m also experiencing a bit of cold and feverish
Female | 24
You have had a mosquito or some other insect biting you. The white transparent layer could be your body's way of protecting from the bite. Feeling cold and feverish after an insect bite is common as your body fights off any possible infection. Ensure the area is clean and put a mild antiseptic cream on the wound. If you experience any of the alarming signs i.e. increasing pain or redness, see a dermatologist.

Red line mark on both thigh sinc 2 months
Female | 24
It is important to mind red lines on your thighs, as they might result from skin infections, irritants, or even insect bites. It would be of much help if you knew when these marks appeared first and any other symptoms you might have. Ensure that the area is clean and avoid scratching. Consider using a mild antiseptic cream; otherwise, seek further evaluation from a dermatologist.

from 1 week i have swelling and blisters on my penis and some sores ,Not much pain, just occasional burning and itching.please tell me what should i do in this situation
Male | 24
You may have a common virus known as genital herpes. They can cause redness, blisters, sores, burning, and itching. The most crucial thing is to abstain from sexual relationships until you talk to a doctor at a hospital or a clinic. As before, they will give the patients antiviral medication to control the symptoms and to stop the onset of the outbreaks in the future. It is important to first visit a dermatologist to verify the illness and be prepared for the treatment.

I have blade cut mark on face how should I remove I am feeling from it as a nervous
Male | 26
You have a cut on your face, and it may be making you uncomfortable. Cuts can happen due to accidents or contact with something sharp. However, there is no need to worry. To help it heal properly, keep the wound clean. Apply a thin layer of antibacterial ointment, and cover it with a bandage if necessary. If the cut is deep, appears red, or is oozing, see a dermatologist immediately.

Hello sir since your hair loss is rapid and dandruff issue could be more of flaking, due to DHT(Dihydrotestesterone) which is the root cause of hair loss also known as andogenetic alopecia.... PRP, laser, minoxidil 5% would be an ideal solution for such hair loss condition.

It looks like the cream you used has darkened your skin. Some creams can cause changes in skin color. It's best to consult a dermatologist, who can provide detailed advice on solutions and explain them after a thorough examination of your skin. Be extra careful when choosing skin creams.

My throat and various joints of my body are very dark for the last five to six years. My weight is above 80 kg. And I have high pressure
Male | 18
Your skin might be affected by acanthosis nigricans which is identified by dark patches, even on the throat and joints. Being overweight and having high blood pressure are risk factors for this. The treatment is to lose weight and control the BP, as a result, the patches can be healed. Follow a healthy diet, exercise regularly, and be consistent with your prescribed medications to control your blood pressure.

I have darkness around my mouth what should I do to get rid of it
Female | 19
Apart from the notorious undesired effects like hyperpigmentation, irritation is also a major cause of this condition while, at the same time, it might be one of the indications of some skin disorders. The use of sunscreen, hormonal alteration, and particular skin products are the most ordinary sources of hyperpigmentation. So, Fully use sunscreen to avoid these dark areas, select only milder skincare products, and keep the skin well by moisturizing it regularly. Certain natural remedies such as aloe vera gel and vitamin C serums may also assist in lightening the spot. You may also consult a dermatologist.

Our dog accidently scratch my hands with his teeth but there is no cuts, bleeding or wounds can i get rabies?
Female | 22
If a dog of yours scratches or nips at you and you don't see any signs of bleeding, cuts, or wounds, the risk of rabies is among the lowest. Rabies is mostly an infection through saliva, hence, when there is no open wound, the chances are minimal. Watch out for any strange signs such as a fever, headache, or tingling in the area near the scratch. In the event, you spot something peculiar, it's best to get checked out by a doctor anyway. But for now, you should be just fine. Rinse the wound under running water and lather it with soap to disinfect it.

I am 16yrs old girl and suddenly I have a scratch on chest like nail scratches look alike and it is irritating my skin on that area also redness is also there . My left eye has also swell.i had this from 3days and no changes are noticed
Female | 16
Allergy can happen when we come in contact with things like certain foods, plants, or animals. Sometimes, this is how our body reacts to things like food, plants, or animals. Take an over-the-counter antihistamine for the time being. Don't scratch the area to prevent a possible infection. If the symptoms either last for a long time or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

I have been taking medicine for vitiligo since long time. Recently I changed my medicine to new medication and now vitiligo is started to spread aggressively. What is the reason ?
Male | 37
The new medicine might react abnormally. This could mean your vitiligo spread aggressively. Your doctor needs updates like these. Each person reacts differently, so treatment needs adjustments over time. Finding the right medication takes trial and error. Keep your dermatologist informed about any drastic changes.

Want best Fever lip blisters ointment. Don't want to eat medicine. I'm pregnant.
Female | 40
If you happen to have a high fever with lip blisters and during pregnancy you can't use medicine, rest easy. These come from a virus mostly. Try petroleum jelly ointments or aloe vera to help in wound healing and to keep the area moist. Also, press a cold pack a couple of times a day. Don't forget to drink lots of water and have enough sleep for the body to strengthen and overpower the virus.
