More big Pimple on face and black spot and white spots
Male | 19
Pimples are the result of clogged pores due to oil and dead skin. Dirt or oil that is entrapped may be the reason for the formation of black and white spots. For help, the best way to go is to wash your face delicately two times every day, use products that are oil free. However, if it persists consult a dermatologist right away.

I m 20 year old student. My skin type is oily nd I tried many skincare products like niacinamide dot and key and derma hyluronic serum. Which made my skin worse. Now I am having acne prone skin with nodules and scars, now i m just using nothing but a medimix soap. What should i do now ??
Female | 20
Nodules are deep, painful bumps under the skin. Oily skin can make acne worse. Some of the products may not fit your skin. Using only soap is alright but acne won't be treated by it. Use a mild cleanser and non-acne-causing moisturizer. Then, visit a dermatologist for alternatives consisting of prescribed products or treatments.

My ureta and upper lips side red but no symptoms its dangerous ???
Female | 22
If your urethra and upper lip are red but you have no symptoms, then it isn't necessarily dangerous. However, the redness may sometimes occur on the skin due to the irritating action of soaps, lotions, and spicy foods. The area has to be protected from irritants while keeping it clean. If the symptoms do not go away, or you experience any discomfort, you should consult a dermatologist.

Hydroquinone for skin lightening
Male | 18
Let me give you the lowdown on hydroquinone: it’s a common ingredient found in skin lightening products. This is because it works by reducing melanin in the skin. So if you have dark spots such as age or sun spots, using hydroquinone could help fade them away. However, don’t forget that you must be cautious not to misuse it since this can cause some undesired effects. As a rule, always follow directions given by the manufacturer when using any cosmetic product and also watch out for any allergic reactions.

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.

Male | 19
Balanitis causes redness and swelling of the foreskin. This could happen from irritation or poor hygiene. Keep the area neat and dry. Don't use harsh soap products. Wear loose, comfortable clothing. If discomfort persists or worsens, consult a dermatologist promptly. They'll properly assess and treat the condition.

Dark skin ke liye kaun sa face wash ya cream use karey and pigmentation ke liye kya use Karen, likewise for oily skin ke liye
Female | 25
The colour of the skin is determined by the amount of melanin produced in the skin. This in turn is influenced by genetic factors, sun exposure, drugs etc. Uneven skin tone, or any other pigmentation which is acquired and not genetic can be treated with various depigmentation creams which are to be used as per Dermatologist’s prescription. Sunscreens are mandatory to protect the skin from tan and other signs of some damage. Procedural treatments like chemical peels, laser toning etc are recommended apart from topical creams to treat the pigmentary concerns. It is not advised to use OTC creams claiming improvement in skin pigmentation without professional advice. Face washes can never treat pigmentation. They can only help clean excess oil, dirt and grime collected over the skin. For oily skin, one can use, salicylic acid, glycolic acid or tea tree oil based facewashes. For more information please visit dermatologist near you.

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.

I am facing acne issues in face and they are leaving marks as well on face.
Female | 28
Many people deal with acne. These are small red pimples that appear on the face. Sometimes these pimples go away but leave behind ugly marks. They happen when oil mixes with dead skin cells and blocks the tiny holes in your skin. To avoid this, cleanse your face every day using mild soap, and don’t squeeze the spots. Additionally, you may want to seek help from a skin specialist who can offer more guidance.

I have alot of head lice and nits in my hair should i use ivermectin 6mg tablet for it or not
Female | 21
Head lice are little bugs that reside in your hair and give you an itch. The nits are the ovum of their species. Treating head lice is crucial to prevent the occurrence of new infections. Ivermectin tablets are an effective treatment although you should consult your doctor first. Shampoos are some of the over-the-counter treatments that may also be effective. The washing of clothing and bedding is necessary to avoid a second infestation.

Blood clots on the legs, hips, and back may be an symptom of the disease called vasculitis. They become painfully tender to touch when pressured. This involves the deterioration of the blood vessels which may be caused by many different factors. It is so important to visit a dermatologist who will be able to provide you with the exact diagnosis and treatment plan.

To day I found pea size lump on my middle of the left neck
Male | 26
A bump in the middle of your neck on the left side might be caused by many different things. Sometimes it may be a swollen gland, an infection, or even a harmless cyst. If it hurts, grows, or causes other symptoms then it’s best to get checked out by a dermatologist. Don’t worry most of the time these lumps aren’t anything serious and can be easily treated.

Why there is a swelled fat clot on my upper area of hand
Male | 15
If the fat lump is on the back of your hand that could be a lipoma. Those are the benign growths of fat cells that seldom have any adverse effects. But, it is always better to go to a doctor for examination and diagnosis. In this situation a dermatologist would be the right specialist to consult.

Small pearl size substance feel under skin on nearby elbow cannot see no pain
Female | 22
This is likely (or can be) what we call a cyst. Cysts are usually benign and arise when oil or skin cells are stuck under the skin. Oftentimes, these cysts don't give you any irritations and therefore do not cause any problems. If it is not bothering you, you can disregard it. But whatever the case may be, it is best to visit a dermatologist if it grows or starts to be painful.
