What causes one side of your face to swell
Dermatologist
Answered on 5th Sept '24
A swollen area on one side of your face signals a problem. You could have hurt that side by being hit. An infection like tooth decay may cause it. Face swelling also happens with allergies. To ease the swelling, put a cold pack on it. Take over-the-counter pain medicine. If the swelling doesn't go away, see a dermatologist. They'll find out what's wrong. The right treatment can fix it.

I am a 21 years old male and i have had acne since the age of 16. I took isotretinoin at the age of 19 and my acne cleared up but i had to go through the treatment with the pain of severe dry eyes, i didn't want the acne to come back. My acne got cleared up but i was left with dry eyes. I went to an eye doctor and got diagnosed with (MGD) and the doctor told me to put warm compress and take Omega-3 supplement and my eyes got better but now i got the acne back, and when i quit taking the omega 3 supplement my acne clears up but my eyes gets dry again.
Male | 21
Dry eyes you experience is meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), which can occur after taking isotretinoin. Supplements like omega-3s may help your dry eyes. However, they could worsen your acne. It's wise to consult a dermatologist to strike a balance between managing both conditions.

The red and circular patches that have spread all over your body might be ringworm. This is a fungal infection that requires specific antifungal drugs like Terbinafine or Clotrimazole in many cases. The affected areas should be kept tidy and dry; loose clothes may also be worn.

Female | 19
Your scalp problem could be a medical issue that requires medical treatment. I recommend you should pay a visit to a dermatologist, who is a skin expert. They can detect the condition and recommend the medications or treatment option that should be taken. Avoid using any harsh chemicals on your scalp until you have been to a doctor.

You should visit a qualified medical specialist, like a general practitioner or a dermatologist, to find the underlying reasons and make the right treatment.

Dark skin ke liye kaun sa face wash ya cream use karey and pigmentation ke liye kya use Karen, likewise for oily skin ke liye
Female | 25
The colour of the skin is determined by the amount of melanin produced in the skin. This in turn is influenced by genetic factors, sun exposure, drugs etc. Uneven skin tone, or any other pigmentation which is acquired and not genetic can be treated with various depigmentation creams which are to be used as per Dermatologist’s prescription. Sunscreens are mandatory to protect the skin from tan and other signs of some damage. Procedural treatments like chemical peels, laser toning etc are recommended apart from topical creams to treat the pigmentary concerns. It is not advised to use OTC creams claiming improvement in skin pigmentation without professional advice. Face washes can never treat pigmentation. They can only help clean excess oil, dirt and grime collected over the skin. For oily skin, one can use, salicylic acid, glycolic acid or tea tree oil based facewashes. For more information please visit dermatologist near you.

A red colored and long mass type thing is coming out from belly button. thick yellow discharge also came out sometimes from belly button. I have no pain, no swelling, no discomfort, nothing
Female | 24
It looks as though you burgeon an umbilical granuloma which is a small piece of tissue that protrudes from your belly button. The yellow discharge may be an indication of the infection. In some instances, it could come on without any pain or swelling. To do this, you have to keep the area clean and dry. It is also possible that you will need antibiotics when the infection gets worse.

My daughter is 11 year and her hairs from the front is falling. what is the reason
Female | 11
If the hairs are falling from front at the age of 11 years that might be due to tractional alopecia or very tight tying of hair. There should be loose or normal tying of hairs. It is always better to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

I got pimples even I try so many products still I didn't get any results even after eating sugar I get more pimples any treatment for acne?
Female | 22
You get pimples when the pores on your skin get blocked by oil and dead cells. An extra breakout might be a result of eating too much sugar. Softly washing your face every day could help relieve acne. Besides, say no to sweet stuff. Finally, use acne products that contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid as ingredients. All the same, you should know that seeing any changes may take a while. You can also visit a dermatologist for solutions to your acne.

I have penile pain sometimes and i have white vein like structure on my penis glans from more than 2 months
Male | 22
Feeling soreness in your penis’s glans accompanied by white-colored vein-like lines is something that could make you worry but let’s make it simple. This may result from an infection or irritation. It can be either sharp or mild pain and those veins could mean that blood circulation is not enough or there is a problem with the skin there. Maintain hygiene around that place, don’t wear tight clothes on it, and use some nonprescription creams. If it doesn’t go away or it gets worse then you should see a dermatologist.

I don't know if it's jock itch because I sweat alot in that area or its am STI because I am sexually active
Male | 24
Either a jock itch or an STI can cause groin itching. Jock itch results from sweat and friction, leading to redness, itching, and rashes. An STI may have similar symptoms but is related to unprotected sex. Use antifungal creams for jock itch and practice safe sex to prevent STIs. Maintaining good hygiene is also important.

i have fungal infection all over groin area
Female | 30
Fungal infections in the groin can induce itching, redness, and discomfort. They are often caused by heat, dampness, and the rubbing of the skin. To reduce symptoms, make sure the affected area is kept dry and clean, and try using over-the-counter antifungal creams. In addition, wearing loose-fitting clothes can make you feel more comfortable. In this respect, it is highly recommended to see a dermatologist for proper advice.

I am 20years old I just started going through gental wart and I already start using drug and cream but I notice serious burning or painful side effect on my virginal so what onniment or drug can I used to reduce or eliminate the pain
Female | 20
The burning or pain you might be feeling is from the drugs you are using. To relieve the discomfort, you can use a mild soothing cream such as Vaseline or aloe vera gel which will help to ease the irritation and give some relief. Ensure that the region is kept dry and clean to quicken the healing process.

Small pimple in body filled with water
Male | 21
If you have a little pimple on your body full of water, it could be a condition called a water blister. This is more often than not due to friction or burns. It may be a tiny bubble on your skin. The best strategy is to keep it clean and not pop it. It's your body's way of filling the area with protection as it is recovering. However, if it starts to get painful or the rash spreads, you should see a dermatologist.

Am 22 yrs old currently struggling with itchy nipple on my right boob and weight loss, what can be the problem
Female | 22
It's a pretty usual thing that someone with itchy nipples on one boob and weight loss at your age might be annoyed by something called dermatitis, which is skin irritation but the reason can be your bra rubbing or not fitting right. Stress or a change in diet can also cause weight loss. Put on clothes made of soft cotton and use gentle moisturizers to help you with itching. If none of these work, see a dermatologist for the right solution.
