This happens when your body fights infection. Inflammation is indicated by the tenderness and pain. The pain moving to the collarbone could mean that the infection is spreading. It is important to get checked by a dermatologist so that they can find out what exactly is causing it. They might prescribe antibiotics if it’s because of an infection.

I felt a sudden allergy in my right breast and lower back almost like a insect bite yesterday Today my breast is swollen and little pain
Female | 24
It looks like you may be having an allergic response. This happens when your body does not like something. The swelling and pain in your right breast could be from an insect bite or something else your body does not like. Put a cold pack on it to lower the swelling. Take medicine to help with itching. If it does not get better, see a dermatologist.

I have skin problem,I had pimples on face and chest for long time
Female | 22
Getting pimples on your face and chest is quite annoying. Those red bumps often occur when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. This happens if your body produces excessive oil. Wash your skin gently using a mild soap to keep it clean. You could try using over-the-counter acne products with benzoyl peroxide to help clear up the pimples. If the issue persists, visit a dermatologist.

i have vein type structure on my penis glans from 3 months. what's that?
Male | 22
If you notice some vein-like structures on your penis glans, those are likely just normal blood vessels that have become more visible. You may notice this more during arousal. Usually, it’s not anything to worry about and doesn’t need treatment. However, if they are causing you pain or discomfort, or if they have appeared suddenly, it would be best for you to see a doctor so they can be evaluated further.

i have tiny pimple-like blisters on my palms, hands and fingers, they arent itchy at all but they can tend to be a little painful at times, they have recently appeared on my feet and on my soles, i am 21 years old and this is the first time such is happening in my life
Female | 21
You may have dyshidrotic eczema. It looks like small blisters on hands, fingers, and feet. Irritants, allergies, or stress cause this condition. Though not itchy, blisters feel painful sometimes. Keep hands and feet cool and dry. Use mild products. Avoid triggers like certain soaps or foods. If it worsens, see a dermatologist.

My mom is 50 years old she is facing some boils above her back side of neck. It's irritating and becoming worse due to the hot temperature of Delhi
Female | 50
It seems that your mother may have heat boils on the nape area and this is because the sweat ducts are blocked leading to itchy red lumps on the skin. Such things are normal during hot seasons for example in Delhi where the climate is hot most of the time. She should keep herself cool, wash that area clean, and apply warm clothes on them too so that they can get better. In case they persist or even become worse then take her to visit a dermatologist.

I don't know if it's jock itch because I sweat alot in that area or its am STI because I am sexually active
Male | 24
Either a jock itch or an STI can cause groin itching. Jock itch results from sweat and friction, leading to redness, itching, and rashes. An STI may have similar symptoms but is related to unprotected sex. Use antifungal creams for jock itch and practice safe sex to prevent STIs. Maintaining good hygiene is also important.

I have acne prone skin which food is good for me and which food cam worse my acne suggest me some foods so I can cure my acne without Applying pharmacy products
Female | 20
Fruits, vegetables, and grains are very good for your skin. These products contain vitamins and antioxidants that can benefit your skin. Conversely, belief in a protective factor suggests that hormones like androgens cause acne, and poor lifestyle habits by consuming greasy or sweet fatty foods might make acne worse. Drink more water. It is the best way to keep acne away since it purifies your skin. A balanced diet is the most effective means of controlling acne.

I have this razor bumps that has refused to go I ve used ketoconazole cream but still no results
Female | 21
At times, ingrown hairs cause little red bumps which can be annoying. I know that ketoconazole cream works great for some skin problems but I’m not sure if it would help with razor bumps. Maybe try using a mild exfoliating scrub to get rid of these pesky little bumps. Do not shave over them until they have cleared up! You might want to see a dermatologist who can give you some tailored advice if this doesn’t work.

There is inflammation on my knuckles, with one on my right hand and another on my left hand. I am experiencing pain when touching the affected areas. Despite a month passing, the swelling has not improved. Furthermore, I have an insect bite on one hand that is excessively itchy, red, and painful to touch. The bite is of a significant age.
Female | 17
If the inflammation in your knuckles isn't improving and you're also dealing with an itchy, red, and painful insect bite on one hand, it could be making things worse. Knuckle inflammation can result from conditions like arthritis or skin issues. However, insect bites can cause similar symptoms and may worsen if scratched. To help, keep the affected areas clean, avoid scratching the bite, and use ice packs or over-the-counter medication for relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it's important to see a dermatologist for proper treatment.

I noticed a small circle which is purpley black on my penis around the outside and more purple in the middle do I need to be worried
Male | 15
The purple-black circle around your penis area could be a bruise. Or, it might be a blood vessel you can see now. Maybe it happened from an injury. Or, some friction during physical activities caused it. If it doesn't hurt or itch, it will probably heal by itself. But, if you see any changes or feel discomfort, talk to a dermatologist. They can check it out and make sure everything's okay.

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.

Why do I still feel worm "tickles" and itches even after 3 deworm doses in 2 months?
Female | 42
It’s common to still feel worm tickles and itching even after taking three doses of deworming medicine over two months. This could be because some worms might be resistant to the medicine, or you might have been reinfected. A dermatologist can determine the best treatment plan for you.

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.
Male | 32
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.

I am a 18 year old male. I used my friends derma roller . And now I am anxious if I can get hiv from it although he doesn't have hiv. The roller was disinfected before I used it with spray alcohol.
Male | 18
It is safe to use a friend's derma roller after disinfection if it has been sprayed with alcohol. HIV is a sexual infection; sharing needles is one of the transmitter. A sterilized roller is thus no cause of fear or stress if someone else has got HIV. Such sterilized tools do not risk transmitting HIV.

Female | 22
It's great that you've taken steps like PRP with microneedling to treat your acne marks. Results usually start to show within 3 to 6 months, but it can vary from person to person. For the best advice on face masks or other treatments, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. They can guide you with the right solutions tailored to your skin type.

Is there a chance to be caught by Hiv if someone's diabetes needle pricked my hand
Female | 19
The likelihood of HIV infection is negligible if a diabetic needle pricks your hand. HIV is transferred via blood, however, the needle prick is not a high-risk exposure. If you are concerned, watch out for symptoms such as flu, fever, or rash. If you see them, go to a doctor.

Small pimple in body filled with water
Male | 21
If you have a little pimple on your body full of water, it could be a condition called a water blister. This is more often than not due to friction or burns. It may be a tiny bubble on your skin. The best strategy is to keep it clean and not pop it. It's your body's way of filling the area with protection as it is recovering. However, if it starts to get painful or the rash spreads, you should see a dermatologist.
