Itching problems now 7 days

Dermatology

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

Irregularities like dry skin, allergies, bug bites, and some skin conditions can cause itching. If you haven't changed any products or detergents recently, try applying a moisturizing lotion, taking oatmeal baths, or using a cold compress to ease the itching. However, if the problem persists, consider visiting a dermatologist.

I am 20 year old female and I am suffering from acne from past few years.i want to ask as my whole skin is dry or I can say very dry...but only my nose is very much oily...so which type of cleanser should I use... creamy or foaming?

Female | 20

Creamy cleanser( low level of PH) will be good for skin that is dry and for part of your skin that is oily(nose) foaming cleanser will be good. But use moisturizer later. I hope this proved helpful.

I have red itchy bumps which started with 2 on my foot and has been spreading till the shoulder. It looks like chicken pox but I don’t have any fever and these doesn’t have puss in them.

Female | 25

You could have shingles, a condition with red and itchy bumps. The chickenpox virus causes it later in life. It spreads from an area to another area. Despite no fever, you should see a dermatologist. They'll confirm the diagnosis and give treatment.

It’s been over a week almost 2 weeks the rash I have under my armpits still itch and seems to be not getting better I don’t see my doctor until march 14 and I dont consider this an emergency for me to go to the ER I’ve tried putting on antibodics cream and Benadryl cream and burn relief gel with lidocaine and it seems to not be helping I haven’t shaved or put any deodorant on what else do you recommend I can put on to help with the itching ? Or what else could it be since it’s not getting better

Female | 33

Under your armpits, you seem to have a persistent rash. Your description suggests intertrigo, a fungal infection. When skin rubs together and moisture gets trapped, fungi can thrive. To ease itching, try an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. Keep the area clean and dry. Avoid tight clothes. Use a gentle, unscented soap. If the rash persists, your dermatologist may prescribe an antifungal cream.

I'm 19 years old, female and my breasts have a usual flat nipples shape. And from the last 2-3 days I've been experiencing a little soreness/ tenderness in my areolar part. And I think small lumps too, i don't know it's not periods so I'm not aware what it is

Female | 19

It’s understandable to feel concerned about tenderness and any changes in your breasts. Fluctuations in hormonal levels, common around your menstrual cycle, can lead to sensitivity and minor lumps. Sometimes, these changes may also relate to normal breast tissue development. However, it’s essential to monitor your symptoms. If discomfort persists or worsens, or if you notice significant changes, please consult a healthcare professional for a thorough examination. They can provide personalized care and reassurance.

I have been having this painful burning sensation on my scrutum after using podophyllin cream. And it’s been hurting for 3days now. What can I do?

Male | 28

It sounds like you are experiencing discomfort, which may result from a reaction to the podophyllin cream. This remedy can sometimes cause irritation or burning sensations, especially if applied to sensitive skin. To alleviate your symptoms, consider gently cleansing the area with mild soap and warm water. Applying a soothing, fragrance-free moisturizer may help as well. However, since the pain has persisted for three days, it’s important to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice and appropriate treatment.

i am 32 year old female i have black heads problem in last 3 months and some black ots on hand and legs

Female | 32

Blackheads are small bumps that form when hair follicles get blocked by dead skin cells and excess oil. This can happen due to excess sebum, hormonal changes, or improper skin care. To reduce blackheads, use a gentle exfoliating scrub and a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Always clean your skin well to avoid irritation and prevent the urge to squeeze blackheads.

Oil skin face wash hand so pimples black circles dots anyone issue

Male | 26

It sounds like you are experiencing breakouts and dark spots on your skin, which can occur due to excess oil, clogged pores, or environmental factors. To help manage these issues, consider using a gentle cleanser tailored for oily skin, along with exfoliation to remove dead skin cells. Moisturizing is still essential, even with oily skin, so opt for lightweight formulas. Sun protection is also crucial for preventing dark spots. If symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting with a dermatologist for personalized advice and treatment options.

I am 24years old,female and I have an abscess under my arm please I need an antibiotic

Female | 24

A usual way for this to occur is for the bacteria to get into a hair follicle or a gland that emits some sweat. You might notice that your skin gets red, swells up, and feels warm around the area. The best possible way is to visit a dermatologist who will cut your abscess then drain it and, you may need antibiotics to kill the virus.

I am an 18 year old iam female I got pimples on right and left side of face up to jaw line why it is? Can I send you picture

Female | 18

You’re having breakouts on both sides of your face down to your jawline. This is called acne, and it’s very common for people your age. If a person gets acne, it is because their hair follicles are plugged with oil and dead skin cells. When a person reaches puberty, their body releases hormones that can cause this to happen. To improve your condition, you can wash your face with a mild soap and try not to touch it too often. If it bothers you a lot, you should go see a dermatologist who might suggest using some ointments or drugs that are put on the skin (topical).

I'm Prashant Sharma and I'm 18 years old. In winter season due to much cold my fingers of both foot and hand have swell and itching and it happens many times for last 4-5 years or may be from childhood I don't remember.

Male | 18

This problem could be caused by poor blood circulation or by your sensitivities to changes in temperature, consequently, those being potential indications of issues such as Raynaud's phenomenon. To ease the discomfort you feel, make sure that you keep your arms and legs warm and do not let the skin get wet, and perhaps also use moisturizers to deal with the dryness. In the event of persistent symptoms or exacerbation, I advise you to see a dermatologist to get an in-depth checkup. Strengthened by their professional advice and treatment choices, one finds the necessary personal mitigating factors.

Wrinkles is due to shrinking of skin with collagen loss. First is improve life style, eat proteins, sleep well, drink water and eat. Lots of antioxidant foods without fail each day, reduce smoking , sugar intake and carbs. Now come to local application of sunscreen, and Vitamin C serum in morning, Retinol and peptide serum at night. Next as soon as u are 35, start collagen building treatments as Mesopen, PRP, Q switch, HIFU or peels so that u stimulate collagen and look younger. Take collagen pills to help tighten skin. You can also visit dermatologist near you for detailed consultation.

Male | Guru Lal Sharma

You have ringworm on your private area and thigh. The infection manifests with red, itchy patches on the skin. The causative agent is a fungus that can be easily disseminated. Applying creams like Clobeta GM or fourderm may not be adequate. You need to see the dermatologist if you want to receive the proper treatment which includes antifungal creams or pills.

I have foreskin reddish and no pain no itching

Male | 42

Balanitis is the inflammation of the glans due to non-infectious or infectious causes. It is usually painless and non-itching but appears as a red rash on the foreskin. Poor hygiene, irritation from soap, or a yeast infection can result in this. The general care of the genitals focuses on hygiene, the area should be cleansed every day and dried completely. If symptoms persists consult a dermatologist.

I have facial hair growth over both chin and upper lip. Its because of hormonal imbalance my DHEA level is 180. So may i know if laser hair removal will help get rid of this facial hair growth.

Female | 29

Laser hair removal can be an effective way to remove unwanted facial hair. But it is important to discuss any hormonal imbalances with your doctor before beginning a treatment plan. Laser hair removal may not be the best option for you if your DHEA level is high as this could lead to an increased risk of side effects. Your doctor may suggest other options such as oral medications, topical creams, or electrolysis.
