My skin is red sensitive and there is a lot of black spot on my face what to do to clear my dark spots
Female | 22
Redness and sensitivity in your skin, along with the appearance of dark spots, may be due to factors such as sun exposure, irritation, or even hormonal changes. To improve your skin’s condition, consider incorporating gentle cleansers and moisturizers into your routine. Sunscreen is crucial to prevent further discoloration. Additionally, products containing vitamin C or niacinamide may help brighten dark areas. However, since your symptoms are concerning, I encourage you to consult a dermatologist. They can provide personalized advice and treatment options to achieve the best results for your skin health.

You may have sunken eye sockets and dark circles. Many things can cause this. It could be due to your genes, not enough sleep, or not drinking enough water. To make it better, be sure to get plenty of rest and drink lots of water. You can also try using an eye cream to add moisture to the area. Taking care of your overall health and getting good sleep can help your eyes look better.

Hi Doctor, I'm experiencing a recurring skin issue. It starts as a small red dot, which then develops into a sore, causing skin damage. The sore heals after 2-3 weeks, but instead of resolving, the condition spreads to a new location just above the previous sore.
Male | 24
You may have a skin condition known as impetigo. It is usually first seen as a red point and develops into an ulcer thereafter ten days or so, and is finally healed. It may also spread to other skin areas on the body. This is the result of bacteria entering the body through small cuts or sores. In a clean environment, and with the help of antibiotic ointment, the skin can be healed.

I have got foreskin infection. I tried various tropical creams, and it keeps coming back. Its been over a year now. The foreskin and veins are reddish and a burning sensation when i touch it.
Male | 26
The symptoms you are talking about, like redness, burning sensation, and recurring infection, might be caused by a disease called balanitis. Balanitis is the inflammation of the foreskin. The reasons may be poor hygiene, tight foreskin, or infections. To get better, keep the area clean, avoid using harsh soaps, and see a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

I am facing itching problem from 4-5 days and small pimples all over my upper body parts
Female | 31
Itchy rash along with small bumps on your skin can be due to several reasons, such as an allergic reaction, irritation, or an infection. To soothe your discomfort, consider using a mild, fragrance-free moisturizer and avoiding any known allergens. Over-the-counter antihistamines may provide relief from itching. However, if the symptoms persist or worsen, I strongly recommend consulting a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment plan.

My penis has a lot smegma and I’m very concerned because it hurts and when I tried to be also hurts and it’s stressing me out
Male | 14
You might be infected with a disease called balanitis. This may be the result of a collection of smegma underneath the foreskin, which causes reddening, swelling, and pain. It is a must to carefully clean the penis using warm water and a mild soap. Do not utilize aggressive chemicals. Meanwhile, if the pain continues or becomes more severe, be certain to set an appointment with a dermatologist for a more detailed examination and receive the treatment.

I am a 16 year old girl that had a dull sharp achey pain in the back of my knee that had now come up in a rash
Female | 16
Hypoallergenic A few potential causes of the issue are sunburned skin and allergies. There is another possibility of an infection. Clean and carefully dry the skin. If the rash doesn't heal, a cream that has a mild nature may be used to reduce the itching. In case the pain continues or gets worse, you\'d better seek help from a dermatologist.

I'm 22 years of age . I'm experiencing severe hairfall now. Thickness is reducing day by day especially crown area. I have dandruff issue too. In some parts when I touch my scalp using fingers I can feel a small round bald area.
Male | 22
Hello sir since your hair loss is rapid and dandruff issue could be more of flaking, due to DHT(Dihydrotestesterone) which is the root cause of hair loss also known as andogenetic alopecia.... PRP, laser, minoxidil 5% would be an ideal solution for such hair loss condition.

I was 26. I was obese. Recently i found crack on my under foot in upper part.
Female | 26
You are suffering from cracked heels. One of the reasons cracked heels can appear is if your skin gets very dry or if you’re carrying extra weight. Cracked heels are painful and may even bleed. To assist, you can consider using a gentle moisturizer on your feet daily and wearing comfortable shoes. However, if the cracks are too deep or the wounds are slow to heal, it is advisable to visit a dermatologist.

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.

Yellow discoloration of nails can occur due to various reasons, including fungal infections, nail polish use, or underlying medical conditions like psoriasis or respiratory issues. It’s essential to observe other symptoms, such as thickness or brittleness. To promote healthier nails, maintain proper hygiene, avoid harsh chemicals, and ensure a balanced diet rich in vitamins. However, if the discoloration persists or worsens, I strongly encourage you to consult a dermatologist.
