Does wound sting if you put a NaCL?
Female | 18
If you put salt (NaCl) on a cut it may hurt a bit. The reason for this is that salt is able to kill germs. Therefore if you rub salt in a wound it will only be painful temporarily. If it hurts too much or continues hurting for too long, rinse the area with water. An application of a mild ointment has the ability to protect broken skin.

I have vitiligo seens 13years.my age is 25.what ointment or medicine should I take?
Female | 25
Vitiligo is a condition where white spots show up on skin. It occurs when pigment-producing cells malfunction. No cure exists, but treatments aid. Topical steroids or calcineurin inhibitors work best. They restore some color to affected areas. Sun protection is crucial, as exposure worsens symptoms.

Male | 23
You may have developed a yeast infection on your penis. The redness, pimple-like bumps, and fluid-filled sores are among the common symptoms. Antifungal medicines such as clotrimazole, miconazole, and fluconazole can be used for the treatment of this problem. Whereas, if the fluconazole cream is not effective, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and possibly a different treatment approach.

The outside could be an indicator of an underlying medical condition for a month’s duration of itching. It may be associated with allergies, skin infections and even long-term skin conditions like eczema. I recommend a visit to a dermatologist.

Male | 29
Based on what you’ve described, it could be a yeast infection on your penis. Yeast infections can cause itching, redness, and a rash. The ointment you bought has mometasone and miconazole, which may aid in treating fungal infections such as yeast. Ensure you use this cream exactly as directed by applying a thin layer only to the affected area. If no improvement is seen after applying the medicine according to the instructions or if the condition worsens, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I have some bumps from the buttom of head Since 1+year . These are not recovering and not reducing.
Male | 16
These bumps could be a result of a skin condition called folliculitis which occurs when hair follicles are inflamed. To help reduce them, apply warm compresses on the affected area and avoid wearing tight clothing around your head. If they persist, it is important to go see a dermatologist for further assessment and treatment.

Female | 23
For whiteheads, you can use retinoid cream or gel. And for large pores, exfoliating scrub or a clay mask can be helpful as they help reduce the size of pores. Moisturizers and sunscreen( atleast 30 SPF) can also be useful to keep your skin healthy.

Bleeding from the back is unusual and could be a sign of a serious condition, like an injury, infection, or an underlying issue with the blood vessels or skin. It's important to visit a general surgeon or a dermatologist to get this checked as soon as possible. They can diagnose the problem properly and guide you on the right treatment.

mera white spot hua hai but color utna white nhi hai thik hone me kitna time lagega
Male | 28
Depending on what you are describing, it may be a type of skin disorder called vitiligo. With vitiligo, the cells that make the pigment in the skin are destroyed through the melanocyte process, thereby producing white spots on the skin. It is always best to book an appointment with a dermatologist.

Me and my girlfriend had sex yesterday and now she feels itching during urination. She has a very dry skin.
Female | 24
It seems that your partner has got a urinary tract infection. Sometimes this happens after having sex. It can give a feeling of itchiness and uneasiness when peeing. The problem can even be worse if the skin is dry. Ensure she takes a lot of water to flush out the bacteria. Wearing loose cotton underwear and using a warm pad can help reduce the discomfort. She should visit a urologist.

I have skin tags on my perineum
Female | 27
Skin tags near the perineum are generally innocuous. They resemble small protrusions of skin. Friction and rubbing of the skin causes their formation. At times, itchiness or bleeding may occur if irritated. If they cause discomfort, a doctor can readily remove them safely. Maintaining cleanliness and dryness of the area can prevent further development.

Dr I am suffering from acne face, my face has excess oil, Dr tell me the medicine I can take
Male | 23
Acne occurs when you have these red spots on your face caused by your skin producing too much oil. It's super common, especially during the teenage years. To help, you can use a face wash with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. These can clear up your skin by unclogging your pores.

I have watery pimples on my pennis what might be the cause and they are very itchy and what treatment u you help me with thanks
Male | 30
You have a condition called genital herpes. This harmless infection can result in the formation of watery pimples on the penis and also cause itchiness. Genital herpes is most commonly transmitted through sexual contact. For its treatment, you can take antiviral medications prescribed by a dermatologist. It's best to refrain from sexual contact until the pimples have healed to prevent the virus from spreading.

I have this razor bumps that has refused to go I ve used ketoconazole cream but still no results
Female | 21
At times, ingrown hairs cause little red bumps which can be annoying. I know that ketoconazole cream works great for some skin problems but I’m not sure if it would help with razor bumps. Maybe try using a mild exfoliating scrub to get rid of these pesky little bumps. Do not shave over them until they have cleared up! You might want to see a dermatologist who can give you some tailored advice if this doesn’t work.

Mere private part me bahut jada itching ho arha hai hain Maine v wash se wash karti hu lightly warm water se bhi wash krti hu aur candid b cream use kar rhi hu but vo thoda der thik lagta hain uske baad discharge ho jata hain aur itching start ho jata hain
Female | 23
You may have a common condition called a yeast infection. It is a common disease characterized by burning, a whitish or yellowish vaginal discharge, and also, redness around the vagina and itching. Vaginal yeast infections develop when new fungi appear on this secure bacterial turf. One drop of V wash liquid on the sanitary napkin and one drop on the private part will soothe your pain and prevent you from itching. When you temporarily mitigate the disease using V Wash and antibiotics, it does not mean it has been healed for good. Only by using an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole can you get fully cured.

I am 23 yrs old girl who is suffering from pcos , obesity . I have hair on my body as well as facial hairs . My weight is increasing. Please tell me how to control this facial hair growth without medicine This is my question I request you to please revert me the answer.
Female | 23
It sounds like you might be suffering from PCOS which is caused by hormonal disturbances. Excess body hair and obesity are the most typical signs. Unwanted hair on the chin and the upper lips may be a result of high levels of male hormones in your body. To manage hair growth without medication you could try gentle methods such as shaving, waxing, or threading. These will grant you temporary relief as the hair is removed.

Why does my tip of my scrotum have a rash looking redness as well as my testicles appear to be very red and is itchy?
Male | 17
You may have jock itch, a fungal issue. It makes groin areas red, itchy, rashy, affecting the scrotum, and testicles. In warm, moist places let it grows. Try drugstore anti-fungal creams. Clean, and dry the zone to avoid return. Jock itch thrives when sweaty, warm. Over-the-counter creams help clear up the fungus rapidly. However, keeping areas dry is crucial. That prevents future jock itch flare-ups. So cleanliness matters alongside medication.

I am a boy and I am 22 years old. I have a lot of itching under and around my penis. More this summer. Been using Ringguard for a long time. When I use the ointment it goes away. If left out it itches again. Tell me how to get rid of it
Male | 22
You may have jock itch, a fungal infection. Itching around the penis is a symptom. It grows in warm, moist areas, so summer can cause it. Ringguard helps, but it may return. To treat it: keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, use antifungal creams, don't share towels.
