You might be going bald from a spot above your head. This can happen as a result of male-pattern baldness. You might note that thinner hair is the case and your scalp is becoming more prominent. The triggers might be genetic factors and hormonal agents. Medication options such as minoxidil and finasteride can be considered but it is preferable to consult a dermatologist to obtain a personalized solution.

Acne par kya lagyai moon glow cream laga saktai

Female | 15

Acne forms when pores get blocked with oil and dead cells. Pimples, blackheads, whiteheads appear. Moon glow cream may not work well. Cream ingredients might make acne worse. Use gentle products for acne-prone skin instead. Not all creams suit acne. Choose carefully.

Hi sir, My self prashanth faceing problem fungal infection leg last finger getting tomuch of pain

Male | 37

Hi Prashant. Fungal infection of toe nail is a common in people who are in professions where there feet remain moist or have to wear shoes for long period of time. You need to keep your feet dry. Change socks twice a day. Use powder on feet before putting on socks.

For the fungal infection already there You need a long course of around 6 months of antifungal ointment. As u are having too much pain there may be superinfection by a bacteria. You would also need to use a topical antibiotic ointment for 7-10 days.

I have a red bump on my leg and it looks like a bug bite. I just want to ask you if it’s venenous and if I should see a doctor. It itches me a lot and it’s red

Male | 12

Bug bites often cause red, itchy spots. Most aren't dangerous, but seek medical help if symptoms worsen. Bites can sometimes trigger fever or swelling. To relieve itchiness, apply a cold compress or anti-itch cream. However, if the bite area enlarges, causes pain, or you develop fever, it's wise to consult a dermatologist.

Hello! Since I’m a teenager I have B.O But since a year ago, I noticed that sometimes my armpits smells like urine.

Female | 23

Teenagers generally face body odor because of hormonal fluctuations. Nevertheless, if you come across a smell of urine, it is better to seek treatment from dermatologists and endocrinologists to get an underlying medical condition ruled out.

No matter whether it's HSV-1 or HSV-2 can cause ulcers or blisters around your mouth or genitals as is the case with other sexually transmitted diseases. In these areas, you may experience burning, itching, or discomfort. Said viruses are easily transmitted through physical contact like kissing or intercourse. If it's herpes, get help from a dermatologist because they will diagnose and treat you.

My private part as been itching me for the past two weeks now and it’s beginning to swell up what can I do now?

Male | 18

You may have an infection in your private area that has resulted in itching and swelling up. It can be caused by either a yeast infection, a skin reaction, or an STD. The most significant thing to do is to keep scratching to avoid more irritation. Try using unscented soap and wearing non-tight clothes. A proper diagnosis by a dermatologist is needed to get the right treatment.

I noticed a growth around my private part but not my penis but within the layers below the penis region , and I visited a pharmacist and I was told I had genital wart . Also told to use a cream called podophyllin cream , I will like to know how long the wart stays in the body and also if it doesn’t cause cancer or diseases like hiv or aids

Male | 34

Small flesh bumps down there are caused by a virus called HPV. The virus can stay in your body for a long time. But medicine like podophyllin cream can treat the bumps. Your pharmacist will guide you on using the cream. The bumps do not cause cancer, HIV, or AIDS. But you may see small, flesh-colored bumps in your private parts. Be sure to follow the cream use instructions carefully. Keep using the cream until the bumps go away. If you have more worries or questions, talk to a dermatologist.

Men private part itching problem

Male | 24

MEN'S PRIVATE PART ITCHING can be caused by poor hygiene. Use mild soap daily to keep the area clean. Tight-fitting clothes can also cause itching, wear loose clothes. Fungal or bacterial infections can also cause itching. Consult a dermatologist for treatment.. Avoid scratching to prevent further complications.

I am 17 year old boy having a red bumps or pimple on penius body....1 pimple pooped and another started growing...pain is there...I can't sit properly

Male | 17

It sounds like maybe a zit or an inflamed hair follicle could be the reason for the pain or itching you might be having on your penis. These can occur due to sweat or humid conditions, lack of cleanliness, or tight clothing. The pain and discomfort can be mitigated by keeping the area clean and dry. Refrain from wearing tight clothes, and if there is pus, gently remove it by applying warm water. Please visit a dermatologist if it doesn't improve.

1) I want to know why about 200 hairs are falling every day while combing. 2) And one more thing, about 80-90 hairs are falling every day without combing the hair. whenever i put my hand in my hair its about 5-6 hairs comes in my hand.if i don't put my hand in my hair even than after also some hairs are falls on my t shirt. Please tell me why it's happening? Is it serious problem or not?

Female | 20

Yet, losing around 200 shed hairs just while combing, and subsequently losing more during the day can denote an accompanying issue. Elements like stress, hormonal changes, problems with nutrition, or scalp conditions might cause this. I advise you to rethink your nutrition, take care of stress, and make use of appropriate hair care daily. If the condition remains unchanged, a dermatologist is the right step to get the exact cause and a personalized remedy.

Itching in scrotum almost everytime... suffering for 10 days...kind of red things apperd... what cream need for treatment??

Male | 22

Based on your symptoms, it seems like you are dealing with a fungal infection on your scrotum, which is causing the itching and red bumps. Fungal infections grow well in warm and moist areas such as the groin. You can try an antifungal cream that is available over the counter, like clotrimazole, to help clear it up. Clean and dry the area of concern and avoid wearing tight clothing. If it doesn't get better in a few days, you may need to see a dermatologist.

It seems like you’re feeling a lot of burning. The cause may be a urinary tract infection, what you eat, or even acid reflux. Drink lots of water and stay away from spicy foods. If it doesn’t get better, see a urologist.

I have these red spots on my hands that have been there since July but they have only gotten worse. They are very itchy and my arms and legs are also itchy recently. I thought it might have been something I’ve caught off someone as he also had a skin issue on his hands.

Female | 20

You may have a skin condition called eczema. Eczema can manifest itself as red and itchy spots on hands, arms, and legs. This is not something that you can pick up from another person. Stress, allergies, or dry skin are the factors that make it worse. Gentle moisturizers and avoiding the use of harsh soaps can be safe variations. If it still bothers you, visit a dermatologist.

I am suffering from ringworm from last 4 months I have used so many creame but not use, can please suggest powerful treatment for ringworm for short duration

Male | 18

Ringworm is persistent and tough to treat. It is a fungal infection causing circular, red, itchy patches on the skin. This fungus thrives in warm, damp environments. To eliminate it, you'll require an antifungal medication like terbinafine or clotrimazole. Keep the affected area clean and dry. Consistent use of the medication for two weeks should help resolve it.

Hello doctor.. I have heavy hair fall issue.. I have been facing this issue since 10 years... Currently iam using minoxidil. Recently i have done with blood tests.. No thyroid and no ferritin issues... Vit d deficiency is there.. Nd i am unmarried womam.. My hair partition width is clearly visible.. I want to take oral minoxidil.. Will you please prescribe nd plz tell me if any side effects are there..

Female | 32

Excessive hair shedding for an extended period can understandably cause distress. Having ruled out deficiencies through blood tests is a positive step. However, your Vitamin D deficiency may contribute to hair loss. Utilizing minoxidil topically could help, but oral minoxidil carries potential risks like low blood pressure and heart palpitations. Before initiating any new medication, I advise discussing the possibility of oral minoxidil with a dermatologist to carefully evaluate the pros and cons. Making an informed decision after considering all factors is crucial.

Female | 20

Hair fall can happen due to many reasons, like stress, poor diet, or not taking care of your hair. It’s good to eat healthy foods and be gentle on your hair when washing it. Consider using a mild shampoo and avoiding tight hairstyles that may cause breakage. If the hair fall doesn't stop, visit a dermatologist for treatment.

Iam 18 year old my heel is cracking too much and I consult the doctor he said infection your heels then I will test CBC everything good but my wbc is high can you see my report

Male | 18

High levels of white blood cells usually indicate your body is fighting an infection. This could be the reason why your heels are cracking. The usual culprits are fungal infections and conditions such as eczema. Your dermatologist may help by prescribing antifungal creams or may suggest moisturizing regularly to alleviate your heels.
