Okay so ima be honest I’m 14 and with my hormones going crazy I decided to masturbate.I know this may be weird but I used CeraVe and some sort of body wash of some sort I’m not sure.But ever since then my penis has become incredibly dry and seems almost like it’s peeling and it’s become painful.Do you think Vaseline petroleum jelly would help?

Answered on 15th Oct '24
You may feel discomfort because of products used during self-pleasure. Dryness and peeling can happen from chemicals in those items. Petroleum jelly-like Vaseline can soothe the area, protecting your skin. Keep the zone clean and avoid harsh stuff. If problems continue, speak with a dermatologist for guidance.

I saw few bumps on my chest black in color...my skin color is brown.They are few in number 3-4. I had fungal infection and I took medicine and anti fungal cream from my doctor which caused itchiness ,I started using NEEM soap which reduced those symptoms . But these bumps on chest remained , and I searched this on google and it showed extreme results so I'm concerned .please help
Male | 18
The lumps on your chest may be a frequent phenomenon doctors refer to as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is a condition that is characterized by skin discoloration because of the old inflammatory lesions like those caused by the normal Trychophyton infection. In brief, these lumps are just the parts of your skin that were affected and are now darker because of that. Neem soap was an appropriate choice to lessen the itching, but for these bumps, it is better to let them dissipate by themselves. If you notice any changes or the bumps do not get better, then it would be a smart decision to get a consultation with a dermatologist.

My front part of my dick gets white scars
Male | 20
It sounds like you’re experiencing changes in the skin on your penis, which could be due to various factors such as friction, irritation, or an infection. White patches or scars may arise from skin conditions, including lichen sclerosus or other dermatological issues. Keeping the area clean and moisturized can help, and wearing breathable clothing may reduce irritation. However, it's essential to consult a dermatologist to accurately diagnose the issue and recommend appropriate treatment.

I have seen yesterday same white spots on my leg
Female | 24
White spots on your leg may arise from various factors, including fungal infections, eczema, or vitiligo. These spots can often be harmless but may indicate an underlying condition. It's essential to monitor any accompanying symptoms, such as itching or changes in size. To address this, maintain good skin hygiene and consider using moisturizers. However, I strongly encourage scheduling an appointment with a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation.

White scare on foreskin some time itching
Male | 24
It appears that you may be suffering from thrush, a fungal infection. White patches and itching on the foreskin are some of the most typical symptoms of it. This might occur when the balance of yeast is uneven which is why the pathogenic fungi will multiply. The use of a clean and dry area may eliminate this risk. It's best to consult a dermatologist who can prescribe anti-fungal medication tailored to your condition.

I got many cysts on penis and surrounding again and again. whenever I get Softin tablet it disappears ,but whenever I stop to take Softin, It will appear again.
Male | 29
Sometimes, little fluid-filled bumps form on the penis. These are called penile cysts. Blocked glands may cause them. Softin tablets ease swelling, so stopping them lets cysts return. Don't ignore persistent cysts—a dermatologist should examine them. Proper treatment is crucial. They'll check for any underlying condition triggering these recurring bumps. Cysts aren't dangerous, but proper care matters.

I have these red spots on my hands that have been there since July but they have only gotten worse. They are very itchy and my arms and legs are also itchy recently. I thought it might have been something I’ve caught off someone as he also had a skin issue on his hands.
Female | 20
You may have a skin condition called eczema. Eczema can manifest itself as red and itchy spots on hands, arms, and legs. This is not something that you can pick up from another person. Stress, allergies, or dry skin are the factors that make it worse. Gentle moisturizers and avoiding the use of harsh soaps can be safe variations. If it still bothers you, visit a dermatologist.

I have this white patches like something in my inner thighs. Like near my private part. It's not very smooth but kind of smooth and itchy. It seems like it's spreading
Female | 19
The symptoms are smooth, white patches, as well as itchy. It is caused by a yeast growing on the skin. For that reason, you can get medicine that is not prescribed that eradicates fungi on the skin. Keep the place clean and dry. Try not to share personal items with other people. Make sure the area is kept clean so as not to cause an infection to others.

Have infection on my testcial skin and between my leg
Male | 31
This infection occurs when the skin is invaded by bacteria or fungus. Itching, redness, and pain are some symptoms that may be experienced. Keeping the area clean and dry could be helpful. You might require an anti-fungal or antibiotic cream from the pharmacy store. Put on loose clothes to allow your skin to breathe and facilitate healing.

I'm 28 years old male and I'm using extra strong peeling oil on my face for two days and I get a skin irritation, redness and black spots on my all over face and I stop using the product.... What can I do now to my face now
Male | 28
It seems the strong peeling oil you have used is aggravating your skin. Issues such as irritation, redness, and dark patches arise when the products’ concentration is excessive for your skin type. To make your skin feel soft, cleanse it gently with a soft and hydrating cleanser, and then apply fragrance-free moisturizer. The sun’s rays can burn your skin, especially if you are sensitive to it. Alert the doctor to the prolonged irritation problem or, even better, see the dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan.

For the sake of cleanness, let your skin be clean and dry. Also, make use of mild moisturizers. If it's not getting any improvement, it's better to refer to a dermatologist.

My little brother got a wound from metal the wound was so minor that it formed new skin in 2 days there was a black dot on the wound it was from the beginning is it a sign to tetanus infection
Male | 11
The black dot mentioned may be debris or a tiny piece of metal that would not essentially suggest an infection. Symptoms of infection may involve more severe redness, swelling, or pus. Typically, tetanus happens in wounds that are deeper, mainly due to rusty metal, though he may have already been immunized. It is best to consult a dermatologist.

I am a 22 year old sexually inactive lady. I get brownish discharge from my vagina, sometimes non-foul thick whitish discharge as well. My recent problem however is the appearance of bumps on my mons pubis. I initial thought it was shaving bumps but more painful ones are developing. I started using aloe Vera and vitamin c oil to moisturize, the appearance has gotten better, but the bumps are still there. What can I do?
Female | 22
There is a possibility that you had mid-pubic hair ingrown or folliculitis. These could arise from shaving or continuous rubbing against the garment. The brownish, and whitish discharge is probably the result of a different condition. To treat the bumps, you can use warm compresses and stop shaving until they improve. You should see a dermatologist if they last for a long time or if they become worse.

Hi Doctor, I am suffering from skin itching and rashes in my groin and other private areas from a very long time. Especially in summer the itching intensifies and it's unbearable. Is there a permenante solution or treatment for this in ayurveda. Please help. I can consult with you in video conferencing.
Male | 46
Itchy, rashy skin down there is no fun, especially in the heat. This could be jock itch - a fungal thing. Nature's remedies like neem, turmeric, and aloe may help. Stay away from tight clothes. Keep the area dry and airy. Eat healthy foods.

Female | 27
Losing some hair daily isn't unusual. Around 50-100 strands lost is normal. However, excess hair fall can occur due to various reasons. Stress, poor diet, hormone changes, and genetic factors contribute to increased shedding. If hair loss seems excessive or causes concern, consider consulting a dermatologist for guidance.

Hi doc, I have an added areola around my nipples it's not dark in color it's just a light brownish thing with some little hairs that are growing, I went on my periods fully, but they came early because of the emergency pill I used. I then took two pregnancy tests after seeing the change in my breasts and they were all negative I'm curious now what could cause the change
Female | 24
The emergency pill can cause hormonal changes, and this might result in breast changes such as an extra areola that is light brown with some hairs. Even if the pregnancy tests are negative, there could still be hormonal fluctuations leading to variations in breasts. Most likely, it is nothing serious and will return to normal soon. Watch out for it but if you are worried about anything then feel free to ask a doctor for advice.

Does this look like tick bite
Male | 25
It’s understandable to be concerned about a possible insect bite. Symptoms like a small red bump, swelling, or a rash could suggest a tick bite. These bites often occur in wooded areas, and some ticks can transmit diseases. It's vital to monitor for signs such as fever, fatigue, or a distinctive bullseye rash, which may require medical attention. If you suspect a tick bite, remove the tick carefully with tweezers and seek guidance from a doctor for assessment and treatment.
