Answered on 12th Aug '24
Having dark underarms can sometimes be quite disheartening. The cause of this could be a condition called acanthosis nigricans. It is most often found in those individuals who have insulin resistance or are obese. Your thyroid medication could be the cause of this, as your reports are normal. Be sure you're using a gentle soap and then applying a moisturizer to the area. Discuss with a dermatologist the possibility of trying different medications.

I have an issue with abnormal hairfall.. Please help me to get rid off
Female | 28
Stress, poor nutrition, hormones, or genetics could be causing the problem so ensure that you eat well-balanced meals, find ways to relax, and use mild hair products. If the situation doesn’t improve within a few weeks then it would be best for you to see a dermatologist about it.

I am Prem Choudhary 18years old, I had acne on my face I had not gone through any treatment before, I had oily skin in summer and dry skin in winter. I want consultation regarding this.
Male | 18
You have an oily skin and acne problem. This is usually due to the hormonal changes that occur during this age. Depending on the severity, treatment can be decided. Topical anti-acne creams or interval medications along with some cosmetic procedures will be required

I have foreskin reddish and no pain no itching
Male | 42
Balanitis is the inflammation of the glans due to non-infectious or infectious causes. It is usually painless and non-itching but appears as a red rash on the foreskin. Poor hygiene, irritation from soap, or a yeast infection can result in this. The general care of the genitals focuses on hygiene, the area should be cleansed every day and dried completely. If symptoms persists consult a dermatologist.

Hi good morning I have skin allergy plz can you tell me med for this
Male | 38
For skin allergies, I advise the individual to see a dermatologist who could pinpoint his/her exact condition and give a relevant treatment. Non-prescription antihistamines can help with mild symptoms, but a person who is suffering from prolonged or very serious symptoms must seek medical help.

Male | 17
It sounds like you may have acne and skin condition like seborrheic dermatitis. To manage these conditions wash your face twice a day with a gentle cleanser. Avoid touching your face, use noncomedogenic skincare products, try acne treatments, and use a moisturizer. If the symptoms are severe, consult a dermatologist for specialized treatment.

40 year old female shaved and used a cucumber baby wipe been itching every since 2 weeks now
Female | 40
The cucumber baby wipe might have reacted with your skin causing the itch. This means the itch can be as a result of irritation or an allergy. To calm the itch down, try using a mild moisturizer that does not contain perfume. Stop using any more products on the affected area for now. If the itchiness continues or becomes worse, it would be best to see a dermatologist.

Hello! I'd like to consult on a medication called Doxycycline I took 2 doses wrongly by accident (2 pills 2 times a day instead of 1 pill 2 times a day) Should I wait 24 hours and take the next dose in the morning? or should I take my next dose now? also, could I check the effectiveness of doxycycline? (I have taken doxycycline before and I'm concerned it might not be effective) Thank you!
Male | 24
It's important to use medicines the right way if you want them to work well. Too much doxycycline might give you a stomach ache, make you feel sick, or throw up. If you have taken 2 doses at once, just skip that particular time and take your next dose when it is due. Even after this drug may still be effective but not in the correct manner as before; so always consult with your doctor if doubtful about its efficacy.

Skin problm last 1 year red reaches on stomack breast areaa
Female | 34
The red rashes on your stomach and breast area may be the result of a number of causes such as allergic reactions, irritation from your layer, or fungal infections. Occasionally, stress can also cause the skin's problems to become even worse. As a way of avoiding further aggravation to your skin, use longer clothes, and mild soap and keep the affected area dry. If the rashes still occur, then it's advisable to consult with a dermatologist for more information.

I am 24years old,female and I have an abscess under my arm please I need an antibiotic
Female | 24
A usual way for this to occur is for the bacteria to get into a hair follicle or a gland that emits some sweat. You might notice that your skin gets red, swells up, and feels warm around the area. The best possible way is to visit a dermatologist who will cut your abscess then drain it and, you may need antibiotics to kill the virus.

Male | 2 months completed I I fzre
You have some redness near your anus, and using Siloderm cream was a good step as suggested by your doctor. However, since there's no improvement after three weeks, it's important to see your doctor again. The redness could be due to irritation, allergies, or a skin issue. Your doctor may need to try different treatments or do more checks to find out what's causing it.

1 Big pimple in face please suggest thr tables
Male | 30
Usually, the reasons for these pimples are open pores, dirt, and bacteria. They can be manifested as red bumps that are filled with pus. Over-the-counter acne specialty products that contain ingredients such as benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to clear the acne should be tried, during this period, for the help of the pimple. Next, keep a clean face and do not touch or pick the pimple to prevent scars.

I have recently had scrotum exploration survey 32 hours ago and was wondering how long before it can get wet and would it be okay to smoke cannabis. Also i have been prescribed to take 3 co-amoxiclav a day for 14 days, what other pain killers can i use.
Male | 18
It is suggested that a person waits at least 48 hours after they have explored their scrotum before getting it wet. This is to prevent infections. In addition, one should refrain from smoking marijuana while they are recovering to facilitate healing. If you are still experiencing pain, you could take paracetamol or ibuprofen alongside co-amoxiclav.

Will washing his hair scar his scalp or will his scalp scab and heal back to normal?
Other | 24
Regularly washing hair won't harm your scalp or cause scabs, unless you scrub roughly or use very hot water. If scalp feels sore, turns red, or develops scabs, try gentler shampoo and lukewarm water instead. Don't scratch the scalp. Allow it to heal naturally. However, if the issue persists, consult a dermatologist for professional advice.

I applied a lotion in my chest and also in upper legs but unfortunately it also get applied on my scrotum after my scrotum started itching, buring and next day it started peeling
Male | 18
The lotion triggered an irritation in your scrotum area, it seems. Itching, burning sensation, and peeling skin often indicate skin irritation. That delicate region's skin may have reacted adversely to the lotion's ingredients. As a treatment, use lukewarm water and mild soap to gently cleanse the affected area. Avoid applying that lotion there again. However, if symptoms linger, consult a dermatologist promptly.

Hi sir I'm from Aurangabad sir I have a hypertrophic scar in my hands I have do laser CO2 fractional laser in this scar bt no improvement please tell me treatment for this scar
Female | 20
Hypertrophic scars are bumpy in nature due to excess scar tissue production and abnormal wound healing post any injury or cut. The choice of treatment would be intralesional Triamcinolone acetonide injections into the scar at 3-4weekly intervals. This may be helpful in reducing the bumpiness of the scar. It is done by a dermatologist. Concentration of the injection is decided by the Dermatologist depending on the how tough the scar is. For Consultation please visit dermatologist near you.
