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.

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.

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.

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.

There is white thin layer store on my penis head daily . Which has foul smell . It com off easy when i wash woth water . My sex partner has same pronlem with vagina . Any medicine to treat them

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.

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.

Female | 30

You must visit a dermatologist first. You may try using natural remedies such as topical applications of lemon juice, almond oil, and aloe vera gel to help reduce the appearance of the black spots on face. Also practice good skin care habits such as avoiding harsh soaps, using sunscreen, and avoiding excessive sun exposure.
