Looks like you got a wound in your left leg that’s swollen and itchy. Swelling and itching can occur when the body is healing a wound. It might be infected or irritated. To relieve these symptoms, ensure the wound is clean, use a mild antiseptic, and elevate your leg to reduce swelling. Change dressings frequently to prevent infection.

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.

This is common and recurrent and more prominent in winters than in summers. The mainstay treatment for atopic dermatitis are moisturizers or topical steroids.

Hello.. i am priti.2 day ago cat bite me.but not bleeding only two min. Burning and red dot and morning no dot .what should i do.
Female | 30
From what you are telling me, a cat must have bitten you. And even though it didn't bleed, you saw a burning sensation and a red dot after the event. This is a possible result of bacteria from the cat's mouth. It is important to wash the area with soap and water. Check for any swelling, pain, or redness. If you see anything out of the ordinary, don't hesitate to see a doctor.

I have very light black horizontal line on my fingernail
Male | 14
Typically it's nothing to worry about. These lines are usually due to small traumas to the nail or sometimes nutritional deficiencies. If the line is new and you can’t remember any injury, it’s best to keep an eye on it. Eating well-rounded meals and being gentle with your nails can help prevent these lines. If you notice any changes or other symptoms, seek advice from a dermatologist.

Hello Doctor, From last couple of days I have developed a small red boil on the shaft of penis, it pains on touch. The appearance is small round red in colour with no pus formation and it pains a lot especially on touch or on friction. Kindly advise medications for the same. Thanks and Regards
Male | 40
You may have developed a condition called folliculitis. It happens when hair follicles get inflamed, usually due to friction or bacteria. The red bump on the penis shaft with pain and tenderness can be typical symptoms. For now, you can try warm compresses to help reduce pain and inflammation. Don't touch or squeeze it. If it doesn't improve or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

last month maine titness injection liya. ab fir se cut lag gaya ..kya mujhe fir titness injection lena chahie ..
Male | 36
Cuts can happen due to accidental injury or poor skills in injection administration. Just cleanse it with soap and water and then put an antiseptic cream on the minor cuts (non-deep cuts and the skin's surface). If it's deep or you notice infection symptoms such as redness, swelling, or pus, the best thing is to visit a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.

Itchy hands and feet may be because of eczema, contact dermatitis to detergents, soaps, sanitisers and chemicals, Psoriasis etc. Avoiding triggering factors, excess use of detergents, harsh soaps or sanitisers may reduce the severity and acute flares. Good emollients can help restore the skin barrier. Antibiotics may be needed to prevent infections through the bleeding skin.

Male | 26
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for dark spots and pigmentation on the face. The best approach is to visit a dermatologist to get a personalized treatment plan that is tailored to your specific needs. The dermatologist may recommend a combination of topical medications, light treatments, and laser therapy to help minimize the appearance of discoloration.

Surgery was done on keloid on my back but it's not healing fast. What should I do to make it not to grow back
Male | 43
Keloids are raised, pink scars that can grow beyond the original wound area. They are caused by an excessive production of collagen during the healing process. To prevent their recurrence, you should keep the wound clean, use silicone gel sheets, and abstain from activities that might irritate the skin. If the keloid persists in causing problems, other treatment options like steroid injections or laser therapy can be considered. Ensure to follow up with a dermatologist to discuss what should be done next.

I have a problem with my thumb finger, I doubt it is blood blister, once pinched, blood is coming continuously
Male | 49
Your thumb may be inflicted with a blood blister. Blood blisters occur when the blood vessels under the skin are traumatized. They can be painful, and the more you compress them, the more blood will come out. For it to heal, don't scrape it off and try to save it from getting injured more. If it is causing much discomfort, cover it up with a bandage.

Can I use benzoyl peroxide 2.5% concentration ointment
Male | 13
The typical usage of Benzoyl peroxide 2.5% ointment is for acne treatment. It can be of tremendous use in getting rid of the microorganisms on the skin surface that could cause acne eruptions. Overproduction of oil, clogged pores, and bacteria are the most rampant causes of acne. Benzoyl peroxide when used as prescribed by a dermatologist will help decrease the number of bacteria on the skin, which in turn will aid in the improvement of the acne symptoms.
