Answered on 16th July '24
It is important to take care of puppy bites and scratches. These can cause infections if not treated right. Look for signs like redness, pain, swelling, or pus at the spot. Make sure to wash the area well with soap and water. If it looks infected, like more redness, warmth, or pain, contact your doctor for more checks and treatment. Puppy bites and scratches are common, but they can be serious. It is best to clean the wound and watch for signs of infection. Don't wait if it gets worse. See a doctor quickly.

I am a 17 year old girl, recently I noticed some white small point sized or slightly bigger patches on my hips. I don't know what to do, but I'm afraid this might be some big disease.
Female | 17
It might be a common skin condition called pityriasis alba. This isn't something to worry about. Pityriasis alba can lead to pale patches on the skin, mainly on the face, neck, and arms. You can see them better in summer when your skin is darker. Dryness is what makes the skin turn lighter than it’s supposed to be, the reason for this happening is mostly because of dryness. You might also want to consider moisturizing your skin more often with lotion, or drinking plenty of water helps too. If there is no change after doing all these things then go to a dermatologist who will advise on treatment methods for this condition.

I have a tiny small small dot like Black head on my nose tip this got remove whenever i squeeze that with my finger how can i remove my all black dot on my nose tip
Male | 23
We do not recommend that you try to manually remove black dots on the rhinion by squeezing or picking them as it can cause scarring, infection, and even further damage to the nose. These black dots are blackheads that result from the formation of black plugs in the pores. A dermatologist is the right person in the healthcare sector to the diagnosis and treatment of this condition.

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.

It is recommended that you seek the advice of your dermatologist when considering any vitamin A supplements after ending your Accutane therapy. Toxicity occurs when too much vitamin A is ingested since the liver becomes affected. Based on your medical background and condition, the dosage and duration of vitamin A supplements will be recommended by a dermatologist.

I have a 14 year old daughter who has a had a itchy raised red puffy bump on her left shoulder the last two days. It happened in the middle of her basketball game. It has gotten worse from her bra strap and shirt rubbing against it. I want to know what it is and how to fix this mystery.
Female | 14
Looks like your daughter has a skin irritation that is contact dermatitis. One common type is contact dermatitis, which is caused by something rubbing against the skin and triggering redness, itching, and swelling. This thing might be her bra strap or shirt, which is the cause of the rash on her skin when it rubs against it while she is playing basketball, To make her feel better, try to use a soothing lotion or cream and let her put on clothes that are not tight enough to prevent rubbing as much as possible.

I have a very thick foul smell dark underarms as well dark neck and itching underarms
Female | 28
You may have a condition named acanthosis nigricans. It can bring about thick, dark, smelly skin in places such as the underarms, and neck. Scratching is another symptom that is often associated with this condition. Acanthosis nigricans is related to the fact that one is overweight or has diabetes. Adopting a healthier lifestyle is necessary to eat a well-balanced diet and exercise can help improve this condition.

Treatment for open pores
Female | 26
One of the most frequent concerns facing people is the openness of the pores. Open pores can cause rough and uneven skin. The causes of these pores usually include genetics, oiliness, sunburn, and even old age. One of the ways to decrease the face of open pores is to use salicylic acid or retinoids for day and night skin treatment. Regular cleansing of your face followed by application of sunscreen can also be helpful.

You could be facing excessive hair thinning and loss due to several reasons like stress, poor diet, or hormonal changes. Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist to diagnose the problem.

Male | 28
An infection seems likely in your thumb. Swelling, thick yellow skin, and soreness are symptoms. Cuts or scrapes allowing bacteria entry can cause this. As treatment, gently cleanse with soap and water. Apply antibiotic ointment, then bandage. Consult a dermatologist if no improvement occurs.

Dark spots after chicken pox are known as scars. They appear when pox blisters heal. Don't worry too much, most fade over time. To speed up fading, try using creams or oils made for scars. Also, protect skin from the sun, as it darkens scars.
