Answered on 30th July '24
Keep an eye on the changes in your body. If the throat or joints become dark or discolored, this could be a warning sign. The condition is called acanthosis nigricans. It can also be due to being overweight, having diabetes, or having hormonal changes. Helping this can be done by eating a balanced diet, controlling the weight, and being active. Getting a consultation from a dermatologist for the right guidance is advisable.

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'm a 19 year old female and i have noticed a growth on my urethra (or around it, im not sure). I first noticed it around 8-10 months ago and it was pink tissue and had a regular surface so i thought it was part of my urethra and that tiny part is falling off so i did not care much bout it. I've been having some discomfort since yesterday and I just noticed its become black now and attached to my urethra with a thin tissue (thats how it was when i first noticed as well). I do not know if its normal or if its something to be concerned bout.
Female | 19
You should know that discolored and rough areas of the skin down there can mean different things. Various causes could explain your situation, for example, a possible infection or a tumor has been mentioned. Pain or discomfort is a common symptom among these cases. My advice is to visit a dermatologist to get a correct diagnosis and the appropriate course of action.

i got a bite from an unknown insect on my hand and there is some pimples and itching in that area . my pt inr is also showing high . what does it mean?
Male | 26
You may have gotten bitten by an insect, which your body doesn't like at all. Sometimes, such bites can result in skin all lumpy and itchy, as you have mentioned. If your PT INR levels are high, it indicates that your blood may take a longer time to clot. You should apply some anti-itch cream on the bite and also visit the physician to do your PT INR check. They could need to adjust your medicine.

I am a 26 year old male. I am facing excessive itching, irritation and excessive sweating in my scrotum. I used lulicanazole cream for 10 days but still condition is same.
Male | 26
These symptoms may be caused by a fungal infection known as jock itch. This is common in hot and humid places like the fine hairs of the groin. Using luliconazole cream is a good start, but sometimes it is necessary to use stronger ones. For further evaluation and treatment options, see a dermatologist.

Hello this is Kalyan age 21 male, I've been fighting with acne for a period of 3years and even more. Tried different medications , remedies didn't worked, finally consulted a dermatologist, he recommended using Zitblow 10mg, it worked for an extent after being used for 1 years but the problem is there were still black heads on my cheeks which are stubborn and difficult to remove. I'm hoping to get some solution to the problem. Currently I'm not using any of the medications except for the cream called Acne star.
Male | 21
One of the leading causes of acne is that hair follicles get clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Acne results in blackheads which are the most ideal from the opening of the hair follicle. However, you can be sure that Zitblow 10mg is a really good option. The other options may contain a very gentle exfoliator to clear out the blackheads, but you need to be careful not to damage your skin. In addition, adhering to a really good skincare routine, exfoliating your face, and keeping it clean also can be beneficial to minimize the prospect of blackheads at an early stage.

Hello doc..I have painful rashes all over my body that later turn into scaly patches. What is my diagnosis
Female | 26
These rashes could mean psoriasis, a condition where immune issues make skin cells grow too fast. It causes red, itchy patches to turn scaly. To treat psoriasis, doctors may prescribe medicines and creams. These help ease symptoms and slow cell growth. But see a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and the right care.

Actually i got a little scratch by a street dog’s nail but it’s not deep also so pls recommend me what should i do.. i can also share the pic of it for better suggestion
Female | 17
I can see that scratching you due to a street dog can be a worrying issue for you. From your information, the scratch is not too deep, which may mean there is a low chance of infection. Watch out for any redness, swelling, or warmth around the area. First of all, wash the scratch using soap and water and then apply the antiseptic cream to the area to avoid any further infection. Watch the scratch for a few days, and if you spot any of the infection signs that are getting worse, like more pain, redness, or pus formation, it is better to go to a doctor.

I often get a lump on my neck left side over the neck bone whenever I lay downward but it gets normal if I move upwards or stand... It doesn't pain
Female | 18
You seem to have a swollen lymph node on your neck. These tiny glands act as filters, trapping viruses and bacteria. They swell when fighting infection. If it's painless and shifts with your movements, it's likely harmless. However, monitor its progress closely. Persistent swelling coupled with fever or unexplained weight loss warrants medical evaluation. Consulting a dermatologist offers assurance regarding any underlying condition.

Sir, I am 23 year old. I don't have beard. I barely have any hair under my chin. Please help me with my beard growth.
Male | 23
The dermatologist will first need your family history and trichoscopy examination for the evidence of vellus hairs. Then they might begin their treatment with minoxidil, micro-needling and Growth factor injections. If no improvement is seen however, then they will suggest hair transplant.

Hi there im a 47 year old black male I went to a traditional circumsation I'm now on 5weeks the foreskin went back to the head like uncircumcised and is swollen but not paining
Male | 47
You might be having a case of paraphimosis. This is the condition when the foreskin is stuck behind the head of the penis and it becomes swollen. It is crucial to first try to push the foreskin back over the head very gently to take away the swelling. If it still doesn't go back or worsens, you should see a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Increase in hair whitening at a young age. Pls suggest to stop it and recover it
Male | 18
It is natural for our hair to change color as we grow older. However, if you see many grey hairs appearing before time, it can be annoying. This may occur because of different factors like genetics, stress, or lack of some vitamins. To avoid getting more grey hair, try managing stress levels, eating well-balanced meals rich in essential nutrients, and using mild hair care products. If you feel concerned about this issue, consult a dermatologist.

Why does my tip of my scrotum have a rash looking redness as well as my testicles appear to be very red and is itchy?
Male | 17
You may have jock itch, a fungal issue. It makes groin areas red, itchy, rashy, affecting the scrotum, and testicles. In warm, moist places let it grows. Try drugstore anti-fungal creams. Clean, and dry the zone to avoid return. Jock itch thrives when sweaty, warm. Over-the-counter creams help clear up the fungus rapidly. However, keeping areas dry is crucial. That prevents future jock itch flare-ups. So cleanliness matters alongside medication.

Iam 23 years of old male having oily skin,acni and pigmentations please tell serum, moisturizer ,facewash and sunscreen Please tell products names ????⚕️????⚕️
Male | 23
If you're dealing with oily skin, acne, pigmentation, or other skin issues, I recommend using "The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%" serum. This product helps reduce sebum production and acne occurrence. For moisturizing, try "Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30" to keep your pores clear. You might also like "Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash," which is gentle on skin affected by impurities. To protect your skin from sun damage, apply "CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30." These products can help give your skin a radiant appearance.

I need a healthy clear and a glowing skin so what products or treatments should I opt for
Female | 26
For healthy skin, cleanse daily and avoid harsh irritants. Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water, as dehydration can make your skin look dull. Eat fruits and vegetables to get the nutrients your skin needs. Protect your skin from the sun by applying sunscreen every day. Clear, radiant skin comes from gentle cleansing, proper hydration, a nourishing diet, and sun protection.

Male | 24
It seems like you have a case of redness on the head of your penis which neuroses. But on a bright note, your tests for HIV, HCV, VDRL, and RPR were all negative which is a good thing. The causes of redness may be irritation, fungal infection, or allergy. Seek an opinion from a dermatologist. Your symptoms can vary and they can recommend further tests or treatments for correct diagnosis and proper management.

Suggest me supplements for skin whitening. Means body complextion
Female | 22
If you are seeking supplements to make your skin brighter, you might find vitamin C and collagen a good option. Vitamin C may balance the skin tone and accelerate collagen growth which results in the skin being more luminous. Collagen is key to keeping your skin strong and smooth. However, don't forget that supplements are most efficient when accompanied by a healthy lifestyle characterized by drinking lots of water and eating plenty of fruits and veggies.

A couple days ago i noticed a large lump underneath one of my armpits. a few weeks prior my armpit had been feeling very sore and painful but i just recently looked and saw a large lump and there was some sort of discharge leaking from it.. a few days later it’s gotten somewhat smaller but now there is a nasty raw scab growing around it and it hurts and itches. also the center of the lump is red and sticking outward and looks like it’s bleeding.

This could be a clue to some infection. See a dermatologist immediately for an accurate diagnosis and proper treatment. Immediate medical treatment is vital in such situations.

I am 27 years old and facing premature whitening of hair started when around 2015 and almost 70-80% of my hair is white and 4-5 months ago my beard also started to get white around 20-30%. In my family there is no such history except baldness but i strongly believe is not genetic and maybe because of nutritional deficiency and hormonal imbalances. My question is can it be stopped 100% and recovered in 1 year timeline? I have seen many people have recovered and got their original black hair back
Male | 27
Yes, the causes of nutritional and hormone deficiencies are along the same lines as this. The best way to prevent it from happening is by ensuring food diets are balanced, thus bringing about proper nutrition of the body by supplying the necessary minerals and vitamins. Recovery patience will also differ from individual to individual, as someone might notice the improvement in a year and someone else might not. You might also consult a dermatologist for an opinion.

Hie I have this painful bump on my armpit, there's like a huge lump on the inside, which medics can I use to get rid of it
Female | 23
It appears that you may be dealing with an infected bump in the underarm that is often caused due to bacteria penetrating a hair follicle or sweat gland. It is usually painful and swollen. One of the main methods to treat an underarm boil is to try warm compresses, which may help the drainage of the boil and the healing. Do not squeeze it! It is better to leave it clean and dry instead. If the bump does not come into healing or gets even bigger, Consult a dermatologist.
