I have infection on my penis. It is more than one year. I don't know how to treate this.
Male | 25
You might have a fungal infection on your penis. Symptoms include scratching, a rash, and a red spot. This can happen when the body is exposed to moisture or when the area is unclean. To help improve it, make sure to keep the area dry and clean. Use the antifungal cream from the pharmacy, but if it doesn't get better, you should see a dermatologist.

I have a very thick foul smell dark underarms as well dark neck and itching underarms
Female | 28
You may have a condition named acanthosis nigricans. It can bring about thick, dark, smelly skin in places such as the underarms, and neck. Scratching is another symptom that is often associated with this condition. Acanthosis nigricans is related to the fact that one is overweight or has diabetes. Adopting a healthier lifestyle is necessary to eat a well-balanced diet and exercise can help improve this condition.

Actually i got a little scratch by a street dog’s nail but it’s not deep also so pls recommend me what should i do.. i can also share the pic of it for better suggestion
Female | 17
I can see that scratching you due to a street dog can be a worrying issue for you. From your information, the scratch is not too deep, which may mean there is a low chance of infection. Watch out for any redness, swelling, or warmth around the area. First of all, wash the scratch using soap and water and then apply the antiseptic cream to the area to avoid any further infection. Watch the scratch for a few days, and if you spot any of the infection signs that are getting worse, like more pain, redness, or pus formation, it is better to go to a doctor.

I am a 18 year old male, 56kg and a filipino. Three days ago, I ate a spicy food and a day after that I felt a burning sensation when doing my business in the toilet. A day after that I felt a bump near my anus and I'm thinking if its a boil or a pimple. I know that having a boil is pretty hard so I'm scared of what it is and i dont know what to do to stop it from getting worse
Male | 18
You may have something referred to as a perianal abscess. When bacteria infect a tiny gland around the anus, this can cause a painful lump. Soaking in warm water may help relieve discomfort. Don’t squeeze or pop it—try to keep the area clean instead. If it becomes worse or doesn’t get better, you should go see your doctor for more help.

I have problem of cavity in my teeth. I have long time back pain. I have problem in my stomach digestion. I have appendix.while defection ,I have problem.
Male | 18
It seems you have several health issues. All these might be connected with different things. The reason for the bad smell on the skin may be due to sweat or bacteria. Dry skin or a fungus can cause dandruff. Cavity comes from eating sugary food. Back pain could come from bad posture; stomach trouble could be caused by what you eat or stress. Also having an appendix problem may make it hurt when you use the toilet.

my head is becoming long ,what should i do
Male | 16
Feeling that your head appears elongated can arise from various factors, including posture issues or changes in the soft tissue. You might also notice that headaches or discomfort accompany this sensation. To help, ensure you're maintaining good posture, stretching regularly, and observing any other symptoms that may arise. Staying well-hydrated and managing stress can also be beneficial. If concerns persist or worsen, I encourage you to consult a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation. They can provide tailored advice and reassurance specific to your situation.

hwo to removr black spot on face
Male | 58
Black spots on the face are often a result of sun exposure, hormonal changes, or skin inflammation. They tend to form as flat areas that are darker than the surrounding skin. To remove these spots, you may opt to use over-the-counter creams containing retinol or hydroquinone, among other things. Moreover, it is also necessary to keep your skin safe from the sun's rays by applying sunscreen to it daily. If the spots persist or you have concerns, seeing a dermatologist is the best option for further evaluation and treatment.

i have vein type structure on my penis glans from 3 months. what's that?
Male | 22
If you notice some vein-like structures on your penis glans, those are likely just normal blood vessels that have become more visible. You may notice this more during arousal. Usually, it’s not anything to worry about and doesn’t need treatment. However, if they are causing you pain or discomfort, or if they have appeared suddenly, it would be best for you to see a doctor so they can be evaluated further.

My skin is red sensitive and there is a lot of black spot on my face what to do to clear my dark spots
Female | 22
Redness and sensitivity in your skin, along with the appearance of dark spots, may be due to factors such as sun exposure, irritation, or even hormonal changes. To improve your skin’s condition, consider incorporating gentle cleansers and moisturizers into your routine. Sunscreen is crucial to prevent further discoloration. Additionally, products containing vitamin C or niacinamide may help brighten dark areas. However, since your symptoms are concerning, I encourage you to consult a dermatologist. They can provide personalized advice and treatment options to achieve the best results for your skin health.

Iam 20 years old female. I want to know about eyebrow hair falling. I loss upto about 8-10 eyebrow hair daily. Is it normal or not to loss eyebrow hair. This is happening for about 1-2 months. Iam also facing excessive hair loss but I want to know why my eyebrows hair is falling.
Female | 20
Experiencing a little bit of eyebrow hair loss is a common aspect of hair thinning as well as it happening in some other fiber(-producing) areas. The possible causes of this condition include the tension you are under, hormonal irregularities, or a lack of necessary nutrients. Onesigh of the difficulty may be because of false eyelashes. Daily shedding of a few is normal, but if it makes you anxious, all the way go through it. To have a healthy hair development, first of all, make sure that you provide your body with all the essential vitamins and minerals with the help of the balanced diet.

Hii I am having pain on nose alae part and it's swollen
Female | 17
Keeping it clean and not touching it will help to prevent a more serious irritation. To reduce swelling and relieve pain, you can use a cold compress. Drink plenty of water and take over-the-counter pain relievers to relieve your symptoms. Nevertheless, I advise visiting a dermatologist for proper treatments since symptoms may differ.

Doctor, I have a wound on my leg that started couple of weeks ago. It was small but has grown larger, with redness, peeling skin, and some pain. It feels itchy, painful and has swelling pus, no discharge. I tried home remedy, but it got worse. I don’t have diabetes or allergies.
Male | 33
The symptoms you're experiencing, including increased size, redness, peeling skin, swelling, and discomfort, may indicate an infection or other skin condition. While home remedies can sometimes help, it’s crucial to seek professional evaluation if symptoms worsen. A dermatologist can assess the area, determine the underlying cause, and suggest appropriate treatment, which may include topical ointments or oral medications.

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.

Male | 32
Yeast infections are often caused by the development of sweat in the skin folds, wearing tight clothing, or improper bathing. It's also recommended to clean the area with water and to dry it thoroughly. You should also try to cut down on fast foods, which are also high in sugar because yeast feeds on sugar.

Red marks in the body, age is 25 years old marks is spreading day by day from back to front
Male | 25
This might be something called erythema migrans. This is when a rash that is red and gets bigger appears. It’s usually caused by a tick bite with bacteria in it. This rash is a sign of Lyme disease. You should go and see a dermatologist so they can tell you what to do about it and give you some drugs for it. If you leave it alone, Lyme disease can become really serious.

Male | 18
The most common causes of a defect on the lip can be injuries, infections, or allergies. Symptoms might include pain, swelling, or redness. To help, keep the area clean, avoid irritants, and consider using a lip balm with soothing ingredients like aloe vera or coconut oil. Remember, if it gets worse or doesn’t improve, visit a dermatologist.

I have acne spots and darkspots on my face form 2 years can i use azelic acid if I can then how much percent
Female | 18
Dealing with acne spots and dark spots on your face for two years is frustrating. Consider using azelaic acid: safe for most people. A 10% concentration is effective. It reduces acne breakouts and fades discoloration. Use it daily by applying a thin layer after cleansing. Complement with sunscreen and moisturizer.
