A tanned upper lip and pink lower lip might seem perplexing, but it’s pretty common. The simplest explanation would be sun exposure since our upper lips are generally more affected by the sun than our lower ones are. To tan less and protect your lips, you should always apply sunscreen before going out into the sun; if you want extra protection, use SPF lip balm as well. Eventually, the colors will even themselves out.

Salmon patches on her face from her birth so i m worried about and how its solve problem
Female | 3months
Those light pink or red patches on your baby's face which are also known as salmon patches are quite common and usually nothing for parents to panic about. They occur when small blood vessels are near the skin. No need for treatment as they usually disappear on their own by the time the child is 1 to 2 years. Simply keep the area clean and protect against direct sunlight.

White patches on my shaft. Painless but lots of them. I have had unprotected sex in the last 7 days. Of course going to get tested but have not seen any pictures online matching. Please advise thanks
Male | 38
White patches on your shaft are around sometimes because of a fungal infection called candidiasis or a disorder like lichen planus. These can show up after sex, especially if unprotected. These can be cured by taking medications ordered by a doctor after proper diagnosis.

I am 21 years old and I have severe dandruff and itchy scalp . I used many anti dandruff shampoos but no use.
Male | 21
A common cause of dandruff is yeast which lives on everybody’s skin. Sometimes, if you’re using certain shampoos and they’re not working it’s possibly because your scalp needs something else. Try shampoo with an ingredient such as ketoconazole or salicylic acid in it and be sure to massage this into your head. Doing so should help decrease both the amount of flakes produced by the dandruff and also provide relief from irritation caused by dryness.

Sir there is a pimple like thing in the middle of my chest. When I press it something comes out. What is it? It has been there for a long time.
Male | 24
You may have a sebaceous cyst, this occurs when the hair follicle is clogged and oil collects under the skin. It is usually not serious, but it can become infected if left untreated. If it bothers you, it would be best to have a dermatologist remove it safely. To prevent infection, do not try to squeeze it out at home.

Female | 19
The lotion possibly irritated your skin further. Here's how to ease the discomfort: Stop using the lotion immediately. Gently wash affected areas with mild soap and water. Apply an unscented, gentle moisturizer to hydrate and soothe irritated skin. Be vigilant about avoiding known allergens going forward.

My throat and various joints of my body are very dark for the last 2years Dermatologyy
Female | 10
Keep an eye on the changes in your body. If the throat or joints become dark or discolored, this could be a warning sign. The condition is called acanthosis nigricans. It can also be due to being overweight, having diabetes, or having hormonal changes. Helping this can be done by eating a balanced diet, controlling the weight, and being active. Getting a consultation from a dermatologist for the right guidance is advisable.

i have a pimple thats bothering me for 2 years (it wont go away)
Male | 19
You seem to have a long-lasting pimple, known as a cyst. These pimples linger, painful, and deep within the skin. To aid healing, gently cleanse the area. Don't squeeze or pick at it. After two years, the cyst persists. Seeking advice from a dermatologist is recommended if discomfort continues.

How can. I slim my face. And also tell treatment of skin rashes due to dryness
Female | 17
Losing extra weight is key to slimming your face. You should eat nutritious foods and work out frequently. Reduce unhealthy foods high in fat or sugar. Make exercise a daily habit. Dry skin can lead to irritated rashes, appearing red, rough, and itchy. Your skin lacks moisture, causing this issue. Use moisturizer daily. You can also visit a dermatologist.

Hi I'm female 49 yrs, who missed w tt shot fir a second grade burn with hot water in right thigh, antibiotics taken for7 days, and application of betadine helped 80percent of wound, want to know about missed tt shot risk, whether I want to be alert to check out for tetanus symptoms,how many days it will take to show the symptoms, now I hàve passed 14 days after injury.please reply
Female | 49
Since you missed tetanus vaccination after second-degree burns, you are at risk for tetanus infection. The symptoms may be visible within 3 to 21 days, usually at 7 to 10 days. Tightness of muscles, spasms in the jaw, and difficulty in swallowing are some of the symptoms that one may experience. If you notice these signs, you should seek medical attention at once. The tetanus vaccine can, however, be administered after an injury to avoid infection.

Male | 24
Your spouse likely has a polyp in their nose, a small growth. Allergies, infections, or irritation often trigger these. Difficulty breathing and runny noses can occur. Saline sprays and humidifiers provide relief. For serious cases, a dermatologist may suggest medication or surgery to eliminate the polyp.

Itching with dark black circles and also it is spreading in my body
Male | 21
Dark black circles spreading on your body seem difficult. Maybe it's eczema causing those itchy dry patches? Eczema makes skin irritated and dark. Left alone, it gets worse. Try gentle lotion, and avoid harsh soap. See a dermatologist if it won't go away. They'll help diagnose the problem and treat it properly.

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.

Hi, my mom wore sandals and it cut a little part of the top of her foot skin. It’s like a round circle and you can see the red skin. She has been using different foot medicine like antiseptic spray, rolled gauze bands, vaseline. She has took ibuprofen for pain. What can she do so it heals faster and relief pain?
Female | 60
Your mom likely developed a foot wound from friction with her sandal. Inflamed red skin indicates irritation. Antiseptic spray application was smart for preventing infections. Rolled gauze bandages shield the wound area. Vaseline keeps skin moisturized, promoting healing. Taking ibuprofen reduces discomfort and swelling. For quicker recovery, keeping the wound clean and dry while avoiding pressure on that foot is crucial.

Under arm pain , If I touch specific area swollen and feel pain No redness no lumps and no redness on breast also
Female | 36
Tenderness and swelling when touching a spot but no redness or lumps could indicate muscle strain or injury. Overuse or poor posture sometimes causes such pain. Applying ice and resting from strenuous activities can ease discomfort. Avoid activities worsening pain. If pain persists or worsens, consider seeing a dermatologist for evaluation and advice.

Developed a pitted area on breast. What could it be?
Female | 31
There's a pitted spot on your breast area. Breast cellulitis might cause this dimpling of the skin. Trauma or infection may also lead to pitting. Get it checked by a doctor soon. Treatment depends on what's causing it, so see a doctor. Having a dermatologist look at this issue promptly is important.

The small white bumps that are present on the head of the penis might be a sign of a condition known as Fordyce’s spots and are not harmful in any way. Nevertheless, it is highly suggested to consult a dermatologist or a urologist if you’re looking for a definitive diagnosis and guidance.
