Can Skin Infections Affect Ear and Lip Areas?
Skin infection in outside the ear and left out side of lips .

Trichologist
Answered on 1st Nov '24
Skin infections often appear on areas like the skin around the ear and the left side of the lips. You may notice redness, swelling, pain, or flare-ups in these spots. These infections are usually caused by bacteria or fungi. To manage the condition, it’s essential to keep the skin clean and dry. Over-the-counter topical medicines can also be used to self-treat fungal infections. If the infection continues, it is better to get the advice of a dermatologist.

I have acne issue from last 3 months
Female | 23
Acne is quite common. It causes pimples, red spots, mostly on your face, chest, and back. Hair follicles get clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Hormones, genetics, and stress can make it worse. To improve acne, wash your face twice daily with gentle cleanser. Don't pick or squeeze pimples. Use oil-free products. If acne persists despite efforts, see a dermatologist for advanced treatments.

You could be suffering from a disorder known as eczema. Eczema is a skin condition that can give you itchy rashes on your arms. It can be set off by different things such as allergies, irritants, or stress. As for your symptoms, you can use a cream prescribed by a doctor, keep your skin hydrated, and avoid scratching to make it better. If your situation worsens, see a dermatologist for more options.

How to remove blade cut mark
Male | 20
To avoid blade cut marks, a new wound should be kept clean and properly covered to minimize scars. When healed, apply scar treatment cream or silicon gel sheets regularly to reduce the appearance of scars. Do not expose the scar to sunlight because the UV rays darken it. For more severe or prominent scars it is necessary to refer them to the dermatologist for professional treatments such as laser therapy and microdermabrasion. For the situations with deep scarring, sometimes a cosmetic revisional surgery might be an option but it is always best to seek advice from a dermatologist on individual basis.

There’s like a red line appeared in my back since last 2 weeks it feels like 2D
Female | 17
This red line is most probably a rash that arises from some irritation of your skin due to something. The most frequent reasons are allergies, insect bites, and skin irritation due to clothing. To help, try using a mild soap and not scratching that area. If it doesn't get better, visit a dermatologist.

I had chicken pox 2 years back and the mark of chicken pox was left on my hand, 2 days back I had dipped cotton inside dettol and wrapped that on the mark. When I opened it yesterday I had 2 bubbles beside those marks on my skin
Male | 16
You may have gotten sores next to the chickenpox scars on your hand. These sores might be caused by irritation or infection. Do not scratch or pop these sores because doing so can make them more infected. Clean and dry the area. Using a soothing lotion or getting checked out by a dermatologist would also help to prevent complications.

Am augandan youth aged 25.i got scars which come by themselves on one of my arm but I have tried all possible treatments it has failed we have tried injection, micro needling and other ontintments
Male | 25
Scars are a reminder of where the skin was damaged, and they can be stubborn. You've tried various methods, but they didn't completely clear your scars. Each person is unique, and treatments work differently for everyone. It's important to follow your dermatologist's guidance. Scars fade slowly, so don't lose hope.

I have a small abscess on my waistline around 0.1-0.2cm wide and around 0.01cm deep. I’ve had it since 10 December but received oral and topical antibiotics about 10 days ago. It’s since improved but i’m wondering if I should continue combiderm for over 10 days or stop? There’s minimal yellowish liquid coming out of it already.
Male | 20
Little abscesses can form because of infections, however, the presence of a yellowish fluid often indicates that healing is taking place. Regarding Combiderm, it should be your doctor who determines how long to take it. If irritation persists tomorrow or is accompanied by pain, redness, or swelling, then consider addressing it with your dermatologist to get an additional diagnosis. They can help with rapid recovery and decide if extra medication is needed.

Male | 38
It sounds like you are experiencing recurrent skin irritations in a sensitive area. Symptoms such as itching and irritation may indicate a fungal infection, which often thrives in warm, moist environments. To manage this, keep the area clean and dry, consider using antifungal powders, and wear breathable clothing. If symptoms persist or worsen, it’s crucial to consult a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment. They may recommend topical or oral antifungal medications.

Male | 20
A small corn grew on your foot. You used a corn cap, causing it to increase in size. The swelling occurs when the skin reacts to pressure or friction. Soak your foot in warm water. Gently file the corn. Wear comfortable shoes to reduce pressure. If it doesn't improve, see a dermatologist.

Body pain and a black face could signal anemia - not enough red blood cells. Anemia makes you tired, pale, and achy. Eating iron-rich foods helps: spinach, beans, meat. Drink lots of water, rest well too. See a doctor if it doesn't improve.

I got hurt from a plastic chair and a small piece of my skin came off near my foot..It started bleeding but i didn't notice ..when i saw the wound the blood was already dried up so i cleaned it with water and didn't apply anything on it.. It's been 5 days since the injury and the wound is not healing..i applied some antiseptic cream on it later..it just hurts around that area and some kind of transparent liquid comes out occasionally.. what to do
Male | 19
The transparent liquid you see coming out is likely pus, a sign of infection. Try cleaning the wound daily with mild soap and warm water, then apply an antibiotic ointment. Keep it covered with a bandage to protect it. If it doesn't improve in a couple of days or if you notice increasing redness, swelling, or warmth around the wound, it's best to seek medical help.

I have used demelan cream for face to reduce dark spots. Now my skin is became red and like burning sensation.
Male | 23
You might have an allergic reaction to the demelan cream. Irritation of some type of ingredient may cause redness and a burning sensation in the cream. It's best to stop using the cream immediately and wash your face with gentle soap and water. Soothing the skin with a calming moisturizer is recommended. However, if the symptoms persist, you should consult a dermatologist.

I have acne on my face its not going i tried everything i use cetaphil and all the products on the market but its getting worse day by day
Female | 24
The cause of acne is the hair follicles clogged with oil and dead skin cells. This can lead to red and swollen bumps on the skin. Sometimes, all you need to do is quit using some products that contain irritating ingredients. I suggest using gentle, non-comedogenic products and avoiding touching your face too much. Talk to a dermatologist for proper treatment.
