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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Small pimple around anus but not painful and not itchy something they become itchy

Female | 18

A small bump near the anal area, especially when not causing discomfort or itching, may have various causes such as clogged pores, benign growths, or even a hair follicle issue. While these conditions are often harmless, it’s always wise to monitor changes in size, color, or sensation. Keeping the area clean and dry can promote healing. Should you notice any unusual changes, or if symptoms persist, I highly encourage consulting a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation. They can provide personalized advice and peace of mind.

If there are small bumps or rashes, it could be due to allergies or irritation. Common allergies in children may cause skin reactions like hives or redness. It's important to monitor for additional symptoms such as itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing. To help soothe the skin, maintain proper hygiene and use gentle moisturizers. If symptoms persist, worsen, or if you have any concerns, please consult a pediatrician to ensure your child receives appropriate care.

My finger is paining so bad it's Swollen and became red and yellowish

Female | 31

The symptoms you’re experiencing suggest inflammation, possibly due to an injury, infection, or a condition like arthritis. Swelling and discoloration are common responses as your body tries to heal. It's essential to keep the finger elevated and apply ice to reduce swelling. Over-the-counter pain relievers can also help manage discomfort. However, if the condition worsens, or if you notice additional symptoms like fever or persistent pain, it’s important to seek medical attention. A dermatologist can provide the appropriate diagnosis and treatment to ensure a complete recovery.

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.

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.
