Can I get chicken pox again while caring?
My mother and brother have chicken pox. It's been 4 days and taking medicine. I have had this disease before. Is there any possibility of more coming as I am taking care of them? My father is on medication after his stroke. So, can he take preventive medicine? Is there any use in consuming it for so many days? Since we are all in one house, there is a common toilet. Cleaned with Dettol after each use. Is there a problem with that?

It's so cool that you worry about your family's health. As you have already had chicken pox, you are in all probabilities immune to it. Your dad who is in the process of stroke recovery should not use any preventive medicines on his own without consulting with the doctor. It is a good thing to wash the toilet with Dettol to reduce the possibility of the germs spreading. Pure, practicing the supreme rudiments and caring for one another will be enough to get by!

I am an 18-year-old girl who has been experiencing small white itchy bumps on my inner labia. They look similar to hair bumps or pimples. I've had them for about 6 years. They did go away at one point but later showed back up. I've gotten them after shaving.
Female | 18
You might be suffering from ingrown hairs or folliculitis on your inner labia. The condition can develop after shaving when the hair starts to grow back and then grows into the skin. It is a very common condition that is usually not serious. To prevent this, you may try gentle shaving techniques or completely avoid shaving in that area. Keeping the area dry and clean is another way to go. If the bumps become painful or get worse, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I am 38 I have a smooth but raised lump/lesion on inside of my finger (hurts with pressure) It is round circular shape and fleshcoloured/ see through with a few speckles inside & & slightly redaround edges I have never had lumps/warts on my hand before Used colloidal silver gel But not changing I was possibly skin ro to contact with a person who had stds in the past but its turned up months after.
Female | 38
A wart is growing on your finger. Warts are produced by a virus that can be transmitted from person to person. They can be uncomfortable and have a skin-like look. Although colloidal silver gel might be helpful, it may not be sufficient for complete healing. I suggest consulting a dermatologist who will prescribe you the appropriate treatment. The removal of warts can be done by different methods such as freezing or applying special creams.

Ma'am aaj mera eyes side mai nail se lag kr peel hogya skin Maan dag toh nhi na hoga boroline apply ki hu Pani aa raha hai wound se but blood nahi or kitna din tak improve ho jga skin
Female | 24
If it has turned slightly yellow, it may be a minor infection. Using Boroline is fine at the moment. When it is discharging clear liquid, then it is healing. Do not pick it, keep it clean, and look for any redness or increased pain. It will get better in about a week.

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.

Female | 15
Moles count the most frequent skin growths. A sore like that located inside the nose is no big deal. The best choice is to let it alone and not to attempt to remove it at home. Consult a dermatologist for the removal of a mole to avoid any bleeding or infection.

I have a cyst on armpit its inside and shows some movebility its been for 2 years and i have no pain or anything even i cant feel it there but now i have 2 more same cyst on my arm pit what is it doctor
Male | 19
According to the information you provided, you may have cysts in your armpit part. A cyst is like a small pocket filled with water and can be quite common. Cysts can happen when skin cells are blocked and then form a pile under the skin. They can also be seen in groups. You don't have any pain or problems which makes it unlikely that it is something serious. But, it is always a good idea to let a dermatologist look at them.

I have been have an itching sensation whenever i bath on my penis and sometimes when i take a pee, what can this be, recently there were red spots , small ones on the penis head but after a day they just disappeared , what can this be and any medication for it
Male | 24
You’ve got the symptoms of a disease called balanitis. This may be associated with symptoms such as nausea, red spots, and pain when urinating. Balanitis can often be due to a lack of proper hygiene, an allergy to soaps or laundry detergents, or a yeast or bacterial infection. As one of the options to get rid of the itching and irritation, the area should be softly washed with warm water and mild soap. Steer clear of the harsh chemicals and tight clothing. The symptoms are still there, see a dermatologist for more tests and treatment.

Can I use glutathione tablets And how to use this And how to stop this What are the side effects
Female | 19
Glutathione happens to be a natural antioxidant. Glutathione tablets are being used by some to make their skin light, though these are not approved for this. Using glutathione tablets can lead to gastrointestinal problems such as tummy discomfort like cramps or bloating. On the other hand, a large amount could lead to kidney troubles. As far as the chances of withdrawal are concerned, it is better to discuss this matter with a dermatologist first to minimize the adverse effects resulting from the withdrawal.

My whole body has been itchy for about a week now. Feet, legs, stomach, back, chest, arms, hands, and head have been so itchy. What’s wrong?
Female | 18
It seems like you could have dermatitis, a condition that can make your skin extremely itchy all over. Dry skin, allergies, or irritation from some products may be the cause of this. To help yourself feel better, try using mild lotion not scratching yourself too much and wearing loose clothes. Should this not work for you it would be good to see a dermatologist who will give you more advice on what to do about it.

Sir/madam My chaild foot had heavy cracks what is the solution to this
Male | 9
It is important to keep your child’s feet clean and dry to prevent infection and cracking. A dermatologist or podiatrist can best determine and treat the condition. However, the best solution for cracked feet is to keep your feet hydrated and moisturized. This can be done by using lotions and creams specifically designed for cracked feet. You can also soak your feet in warm water with Epsom salts or other moisturizing oils such as olive oil or coconut oil.

I have a acne problem which are very visible angs sopts are very big in size
Male | 29
This is a common skin condition that occurs when the pores of your skin are clogged with oil and dead cells. This can lead to the formation of red inflamed bumps. At times, it is a result of hormonal changes or genetics. Treating your face gently by washing it with a mild soap, refraining from pinching these pimples plus using products containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can help clear the acne.
If this doesn’t work, see a dermatologist for more advice on caring for your skin.

I am 22 years old and I am facing with eczema on my finger it's kind of a dry itchy and small swellings on that finger and that spreading on other fingers of my hand too I have tried many creams but it helps temporarily and again the condition continues.. what should I do?
Female | 22
When ignored, eczema can cause dry, itchy skin with small bumps that may spread to other fingers. This condition is usually not contagious but uncomfortable. Eczema may be brought about by allergens or irritants present in the environment or stressors at home or the workplace. To manage this kind of problem, always keep the skin moisturized all the time; avoid anything that triggered the outbreak such as harsh detergent soaps among others–instead use mild ones which are readily available over-the-counter (OTC) drugs like hydrocortisone creams can also work effectively if prescribed by doctors specializing in treating diseases related with epidermis.

Dr. Alvin's Product No. 4 Peeling Set I use on my face for 36 days. My skin is very oily and sensitive. The peeling product did not give good results after using it on my skin. Currently my skin is white and black. Now what can I do?
Female | 19
The white and black spots you noticed could result from product irritation. This might've caused hyperpigmentation. Stop using the product immediately. Use a gentle, moisturizing cleanser and moisturizer made for sensitive skin instead. Wear sunscreen daily to protect your skin. Give your skin time to heal, avoiding harsh products. If the changes persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist.

I have sebaceous cyst on my back with inflammation. doctor suggested for surgical removal. But I have keloid history, what treatment should I go for
Male | 32
Given your history with keloids, having the cyst surgically taken out could result in the formation of keloids. Keloids are raised scars that grow beyond the original injury site. Instead of opting for an operation, you may want to think about other alternatives such as steroid injections or laser therapy. These treatments can help to decrease inflammation and prevent the formation of keloids. It is important to talk about these options with a dermatologist so that you can choose the one that fits you best.

What to do to get rid of blackheads on the face. And to brighten the face
Male | 25
Blackheads are minuscule black spots on your skin. They are a result of oil and dead skin blocking the pores on the skin. To clarify them, gently wash the pores once daily, never neglect the exfoliation part, and the third thing is to apply a non-come-genic moisturizer. Besides you can try using salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide products. Don't forget to wash your face thoroughly and moisturize it.

Hii Doctor.. I am a 24 yr old male. I am having pimples around my penile shaft. No itching or pain. When it pops a white discharge is coming out of it. (Same like when we pop pimples of face). Now a days these these small pimples are increasing.
Male | 24
The condition known as Fordyce spots may be what you are going through. The spots are of no concern, small white or yellowish bumps that can develop on the penis. They are often not itchy or painful and may sometimes release a white discharge when popped. Fordyce spots are normal and usually, no treatment is needed. But if you are worried, it is best to consult a dermatologist for more check-ups.

I am 24 years old and I have some weird looking bumps on my left hand that look like warts. 3 of them formed on my hand 5 years ago, and the rest of them appeared in the last 8 months.
Male | 24
Little bumpy skin growths on your left hand might come from a virus called HPV. Harmless warts are widespread viral infections. Sometimes they itch or hurt. Over-the-counter medicines, freezing therapies, or lasers treat them. If bothersome, consult a dermatologist about remedies.
