How can I prevent keloid regrowth after surgery?
Surgery was done on keloid on my back but it's not healing fast. What should I do to make it not to grow back
Dermatologist
Answered on 10th July '24
Keloids are raised, pink scars that can grow beyond the original wound area. They are caused by an excessive production of collagen during the healing process. To prevent their recurrence, you should keep the wound clean, use silicone gel sheets, and abstain from activities that might irritate the skin. If the keloid persists in causing problems, other treatment options like steroid injections or laser therapy can be considered. Ensure to follow up with a dermatologist to discuss what should be done next.

Hi I have been on my period for a month, swallow feet,little sores that are in the skin and painful humps on my legs
Female | 35
Your period lasting an entire month is abnormal. Swollen feet, painful sores on the skin, and lumps on legs are worrisome signs. These symptoms may indicate hormonal imbalance or infection. It is crucial to consult a gynecologist promptly for examination and treatment. Neglecting these issues could lead to complications. An accurate diagnosis is essential to address the underlying cause effectively.

Hi doctor, I have a problem with my ear. Every month, it starts to develop inside pimples which cause pain. This issue continues on and off every month.
Male | 24
Your ear issue might involve pimples causing pain. This could signify otitis externa, an ear canal infection. It happens when water gets trapped, or you use objects for cleaning your ears, or due to skin issues. To ease discomfort and prevent more pimples, keep ears dry, avoid inserting things inside, and consider antibiotic ear drops from a doctor. If troubles persist, promptly consult a dermatologist.

I have like this tiny multiple lumps that looks like warts but it isn't...im guessing them to be external hemorrhoids but its not connected into the anal...the location of those lumps are not too far away from the anal. I would like to know what disease it this and how to cure it.
Male | 18
The little bumps you are describing could be harmless skin conditions such as warts or other skin overgrowths, rather than hemorrhoids, especially if they are not located near the butt. These actually thrive from several causes, e.g., friction or irritation. Often, they are benign and may not affect health much, but it’s crucial to keep an eye on any changes. Washing and not rubbing as ways to alleviate symptoms would help. I suggest that you consult a dermatologist to give you an accurate diagnosis and suggest suitable therapies for treatment.

I think I have herpes what should I do
Male | 22
Herpes is a common virus. It causes itchy, painful sores. These blisters often appear around your mouth or private parts. You can get it through close contact. Herpes may seem bad, but doctors can give you antiviral medicine. Using protection during sex helps prevent spreading it too. Good hygiene habits are also key.

sir my mother is suffering with itching all over body and rashes dark patch pigments on body for years i shown her to derma doctors but no positive results please give medication and any tests i used medicine like avil tab and inj atarax tab levocetrizine tab deflazacort tab creams lotions but no use and results please help
Female | 72
Itching all over the body with rashes, dark patches, and pigmentation could be due to several reasons including allergies, skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis, and hormonal imbalances. I see you have used drugs but sometimes it is necessary for one to get a clear understanding for effective treatment. Therefore, I would advise that she gets referred to an expert such as an allergist or dermatologist who will conduct more tests maybe even skin biopsies or blood works so that they can be able to identify the cause exactly. After which they can then give her specific treatments meant for that condition which will help reduce the signs.

Male | 27
Eczema is a skin condition that can cause itching, redness, and sometimes swelling or cracked skin. It happens when your skin is sensitive to things like soaps, lotions, or even stress. To reduce itching and redness, use gentle, fragrance-free products and keep your skin moisturized. If the symptoms persist, it's important to see a dermatologist for further treatment.

Salic cu glyco peeling is gud for skin?
Female | 30
Salicylic acid and glycolic acid peels can be beneficial for skin.. Both ingredients exfoliate, unclog pores, and improve skin texture .. SALICYLIC ACID is oil soluble, making it an effective treatment for acne-prone skin.... GLYCOLIC ACID is water soluble, making it a good choice for dry skin. However, these peels should only be done by a qualified professional, as they can cause skin damage if not done properly . It's important to discuss any concerns with a DERMATOLOGIST before undergoing the treatment.

I had spot on forehead since I had my op ten weeks...and it really itchy I know I haven't got scabs or whatever...but it really really itchy
Female | 44
You are having an itchy sensation around that area on your forehead where the surgery was performed ten weeks ago. This can occur as the body continues its healing process and the nerves in that area start functioning again. Itching can also be a normal part of the healing process. To treat the itchiness, you can try using a gentle moisturizer on the area. Do not scratch it, as this can aggravate the situation. If the itching does not go away or intensifies, it is best to consult a dermatologist to ensure that your healing process is going well.

I have alots of pimple and dark spots over the face
Female | 24
Pimples sprout when oil and dead cells clog pores. Red bumps might ooze sometimes. After pimples heal, dark marks linger. For help, wash your face twice daily with gentle cleanser. Don't pick pimples. Non-comedogenic lotions and products deter breakouts. A dermatologist offer creams or procedures to tame acne and dark spots.

some allergy suddenly arised from my body it caused my finger and arm swallow
Female | 17
When certain allergies occur, body parts tend to swell. This might have been caused by contact with something like a plant or chemical that does not agree with you. Ensure the affected area is washed properly. To reduce the swelling, you can use an antihistamine. Seek immediate medical attention if things get worse or if you find it hard to breathe.

Which treatment is best for vitiligo in children below 5 years, homeopathy, ayurveda, or allopathy? What treatment is given to kids for focal vitiligo above lips?
Male | 3
The best treatment for vitiligo in children below 5 years old would depend on the severity of the condition. Generally, topical corticosteroids are the most commonly used treatment for vitiligo in children, and they are used in combination with other treatments like phototherapy, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and systemic immunomodulators. For focal vitiligo above the lips, the treatment of choice is usually topical corticosteroids. Additionally, topical immunomodulators and phototherapy can be used in combination with topical corticosteroids to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. Homeopathy, ayurveda, and other alternative treatments can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, but should be discussed with a doctor before starting.

Female | 19
Darker skin and dark spots can occur from excessive sun exposure, hormonal changes, or skin inflammation. This issue can be solved by the application of skin whitening and brightening treatments which contain substances such as vitamin C, niacinamide, or kojic acid. Also, think about treatments like chemical peels or laser therapy to aid in the removal of dark spots. To ensure your skin's safety, always wear sunscreen to shield it from the sun and other harmful rays.

Female | 46
Skin cancer is caused when skin cells grow in an abnormal way. The symptoms can include moles that are changing, new growths, or sores that don’t heal. The main reason is the sun. Treatment options include surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy. It's important to protect your skin from the sun and see a dermatologist for regular checkups.

Spot on my face please help me
Female | 38
A spot on your face can occur when your oil glands or sweat glands become blocked. Using a mild soap and water, cleanse your face gently twice a day. To avoid an infection, refrain from touching or squeezing the blemish. If it does not disappear or the size increases, make an appointment with a dermatologist as soon as possible. To clear it up, they might recommend lotions or other types of treatments.
