It is fantastic that you sweat the details about your wound with highly microscope-like attention to detail. The small bleeding and mild discomfort may mean it's a minor injury that is usually due to a cat bite. Carefully facilitate the part of the body with a soapy lotion, to avoid the infection-causing phenomenon. After you have done that, a light application of a non-prescription antibiotic ointment and a bandage should suffice. Be aware of signs of infection like more redness or swelling, and if these signs are present, seek immediate assistance from a dermatologist before the condition worsens.

I think I may have the STD/STI virus called Herpes. There are tiny little pink bumps that have been on my penis for a while now.
Male | 23
It is really important to keep monitoring and watching any changes occurring in your body. These small pink pimples that you see might be due to Herpes. Having sores, blisters, and itching are the common outcomes when you get an infection. A virus caused by herpes simplex is spread by the transmission of proteins from the infected source to the recipient's body. But the only certain way till the moment it is still unconfirmed is to get tested by a professional health worker.

I am a 16 year boy, I am having issues in the areas near my penis. My thighs and upper part of penis, I can see some rashes of red colour and severe itching when in contact with water. I have another problem in my penis. My lower part of penis has some white pimple like lines all around and is it normal or something else. I have a 16cm penis is it ok for me.
Male | 16
The red rashes accompanied by intense itching can be a sign of fungal infection or irritation. Fordyce spots, which are harmless, could be what the white pimple-like lines on the lower part of your penis are. Use OTC antifungal cream on the rash and ensure the area remains dry and clean. If your symptoms persist, visit a dermatologist for further diagnosis and treatment.

Male | Jeevan
It appears that you may be having an issue with the skin on your penis. Irritation, infection, or inflammation can cause redness and pain. Some common signs are itching, burning sensation and tenderness. Do not use rough soaps or chemicals in this area. Keep it dry and clean always. If these signs continue or becomes severe, seek medical advice immediately.

My boyfriend has an infected wound in his calf which started of as a small itchy spot that later became a red spot and later an infected wound that's made his the surrounding area swollen right down to his ankles. The glands in his groin are now painful too. Please advise what type of antibiotic would be suitable for this?
Male | 41
Your boyfriend may have a severe skin infection that’s spreading. The redness, swelling, and pain—coupled with swollen glands in the groin—indicate that it might be a bacterial infection. To cure this, he may require a course of antibiotics such as penicillin or cephalosporin which can help to fight off the infection. It is important to seek medical attention as soon as possible to avoid further complications.

Can I take tetanus injection 4 days after a minor surface scratch on a finger without blood coming out. There's a little redness and pain. I continuously applied handwash and a common antiseptic cream 2-3 times daily since the injury. Now can I take tetanus injection today or am I good?
Male | 26
Cleaning a scratch often with soap and cream is smart. Small cuts can allow tetanus germs inside. Tetanus makes muscles tight and jerky - dangerous. If injured, take the tetanus shot within one to three days. Since it's been four days and your scratch is red and hurts, get the shot today to be secure. That shields you from risks.

Female | 20
Swollen lips may be attributed to everyday causes like a bee sting a skin injury, or an allergic reaction. Injury can be excluded by the consultation of an allergist or dermatologist. If swelling is severe, you should seek instant medical attention.

I have gone through hair transplant surgery 4.5 months ago. I am suffering from Androgenetic Alopecia. As per the doctor, I am taking minoxidil and finastride on daily basis. However, my hair sheds while I apply minoxidil (10-15 hairs shed) and while I wash my head. Please suggest whether this is normal or should I consider any other treatment?
Hair fall is natural. As the lifecycle of hair has different stages.
- Telogen and exogen are shedding phases of hair cycle where we lose hair. 15 to 20% hair are shed in these phases, therefore it's natural.
- But when you lose more hair than routine, then its a matter of concern. Upto 30 to 40 hair per day is normal. Whatever you lose will grow back according to your hair cycle.
- If you are losing thin hair very frequently then it's alarming as well.
- After starting minoxidil hair fall increases. But that is normal and you will get those hair back because you are not losing them from the root.
Keep using minoxidil and finasteride it will help you.
You can refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India, or you can consult me as well anytime you feel that the state of your hair is seeing no improvement.

I'm a 27 year old male and about two weeks ago I accidentally stabbed my hand with an ink pen and there's been a black sack or lump on it since and it doesn't look like it's healing even though it doesn't hurt. Since then I've had headaches, stomach pain, chest pain, left arm and hand pain, back pain, brain fog, fast heart rate, and tingling every day. I also took nsaids every days as well so I don't know if I'm sick from stomach inflammation or if I have an infection. I can't go to the doctor's because I don't have health insurance. What should I do?
Male | 27
A part of your hand, likely where the infection started, may have been affected by the pen blast. This infection could now be spreading and causing other symptoms like headaches, stomach pain, tingling, and a fast heart rate. This is serious, as it can lead to tissue damage and become life-threatening if it spreads through your blood. Getting immediate medical treatment from a dermatologist is essential.
If you’ve been using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) daily, which can harm the upper GI tract, consult a doctor. You should get tested for Helicobacter pylori, and if positive, start the recommended treatment. Consulting a gastroenterologist for ways to help your stomach heal can also be beneficial.

how to remove drk black spot on face
Male | 58
Dark black spots on the face can get there because of sunburns, patches left by acne, or even hormone illness. Although they are sometimes totally harmless, most people do feel shy when looking at them in the mirror. Using gentle exfoliants like glycolic acid, applying precautions like using sunscreen daily, and getting treatments like laser therapy or chemical peels from a dermatologist can help lighten these spots over time.

REDNESS IN RIGHT EAR AND WHITE LAYER BEHIND REDNESS

If your ear becomes red and has a white layer behind the redness, the cause could be bacteria or fungi. This can take place if water becomes trapped in your ear or if you scratch the inside of your ear. You might also have the sensation of pain or itching. Seeing a dermatologist is important to treat the disease.

l have itchy legs for last two weeks and it itch constantly.What should i do?
Male | 15
When skin is dry, it tends to be more during winter. It could also result from an allergy to something like soap or lotion. Moreover, conditions such as eczema may affect the skin too. Try to solve this problem by using a lot of moisturizing lotion, changing your soap to the one that does not react, and stopping scratching to avoid infections. If these measures fail, then see a dermatologist.

My dad has a white patch near chest. Is it worrisome
Male | 62
A white patch on the neck could be a condition called pityriasis versicolor, caused by yeast growth on the skin. It usually leads to white patches without other symptoms. Anti-fungal creams or shampoos prescribed by a dermatologist can help treat it. Keeping the area clean and dry is also important.

Rash around genital area and pain
Male | 27
A rash around there can be caused by lots of things such as a fungal infection or even being allergic to the soap or laundry detergent you use. If you have this itchy rash, it might hurt too because the skin is raw from all the scratching. To make things better, try using mild unscented soap and wearing loose cotton underwear. If these suggestions don’t work then please see a dermatologist who can give you some proper advice on what to do next.

Patches can appear discolored when a fungus infects facial skin. Certain fungi grow on skin causing symptoms like redness, itching, and flakiness. Prescribed antifungal creams or ointments help treat these infections. Keeping infected areas clean and dry assists effective treatment. Although not severe, fungal infections can leave marks if untreated. Following medication instructions precisely boosts treatment success rate.

I have chicken pox and little cold also .I need medicine with prescription.
Female | 25
You have chicken pox accompanied by a slight cold that can be uncomfortable. Chickenpox is the cause of red spots on your skin and itchiness, while a cold can lead to a cough or sneezing. To help with the itchiness, you can take oatmeal baths and use calamine lotion. For the cold drinking warm fluids and resting should be the first. Ensure that besides drinking water, you also get enough sleep in order to allow your body to naturally combat the viruses responsible for these symptoms.
