What should I do for burning scrotum post-podophyllin cream?
I have been having this painful burning sensation on my scrutum after using podophyllin cream. And it’s been hurting for 3days now. What can I do?

Answered on 12th Feb '25
It sounds like you are experiencing discomfort, which may result from a reaction to the podophyllin cream. This remedy can sometimes cause irritation or burning sensations, especially if applied to sensitive skin. To alleviate your symptoms, consider gently cleansing the area with mild soap and warm water. Applying a soothing, fragrance-free moisturizer may help as well. However, since the pain has persisted for three days, it’s important to consult a dermatologist for personalized advice and appropriate treatment.

Pemphigus autoimmune disease
Female | 65
Pemphigus is an autoimmune disorder in which the safe skin cells are unintentionally assaulted by the immune system, resulting in unbearable blisters and sores. Symptoms may consist of sensitivity, raw spots as well as peeling skin. Treatment generally involves the administration of anti-inflammatory drugs and immune system-suppressing agents like corticosteroids. Adhering to a proper skincare regime is also crucial. It is also important to consult a dermatologist for further opinions.

I am 27 year old living in ranchi kanke road , having serious problem of dandruff hairfall and my hair color is changing into white even some part of beard as well. Kindly help me with the treatment.
Male | 27
Dandruff in the scalp is due to excess sebum (natural oil) production along with increased activity of a fungus called Malassezia in the scalp. Antifungal shampoos containing Ketoconazole, Ciclopirox, selenium sulphide can help treat the dandruff. If it is severe, oral antifungals are also prescribed for a short duration. Salicylic acid, coal tar shampoos are also prescribed in case of excess flakiness of scalp. Hair fall may be due to dandruff, nutritional deficiencies, stress or due to genetic factors. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist who can diagnose the cause of hairfall and may suggest treatment accordingly. Trichoscopy of the scalp may help in understanding the nature of the scalp and condition. Nutritional supplements, Capixyl containing serum, Minoxidil solution, oral supplements containing vitamin and minerals are prescribed by the dermatologist to treat the hair loss. Change in hair colour in beard and scalp may be due to nutritional deficiencies or strong hair colours or genetic causes. Dermatologist’s help may be needed to treat the same. Calcium pantothenate containing supplements may help slow down the greying and sometimes restore the colour of hair.

I AM GOING TO PROVIDE YOU A REPORT I JUST WANT TO KNOW THE POSSIBLE REASON BEHIND THE CONDITION AND WHAT EXACTLY THE IMPRESSION MEANS AND ALSO IS IT SERIOUS ISSUE LIKE CANCER AND AUTO IMMUNE DISEASE. HERE IS THE REPORT.... USG LOCAL REGION CLINICAL HISTORY-Swelling in right submandibular region since 1 month. H/o surgical procedure a month back. ON USG SCANNING- There is evidence of heterogeneous predominantly hypoechoic thick walled collection in subcutaneous soft tissue region in right submandibular region measuring 3 x 0.8cm (2cc). It shows mobile internal echoes and peripheral vascularity. Surrounding soft tissue is shows thickening. The collection is 1.7mm deep to the skin surface. Prominent submandibular lymphnode measuring 13 x 6mm and few prominent cervical lymphnodes largest measuring 16 x 8mm are noted on right side.

Male | 25
According to the report, there seems to be a build-up of liquid beneath your skin in the right submandibular area. This is likely an abscess causing swelling and soreness. The report also notes swollen lymph nodes in your neck region. Swollen lymph nodes often indicate your body fighting an infection. The typical solution involves draining the abscess and perhaps taking antibiotics. This issue is unrelated to cancer or autoimmune disorders. Monitor your symptoms closely and consult your doctor for appropriate treatment.

Male | 23
Swelling of the foreskin can be the result of different reasons that include infections, inflammation, or allergic reations. You may coint symptoms like redness, disquiet, or the inability to retract the foreskin. For an efficient solution, the area should be kept clean and dry. Use a tender soap and warm water while abstaining from strong soaps or perfumes is the best way to avoid irritants. Should you feel intense discomfort, or the condition keeps getting worse, or you notice a discharge, you should see a dermatologist who will be able to check the condition and prescribe the necessary treatment.

I’m having underarm problems, they’re dark and I want laser treatment for it.
Female | 21
Laser treatment for dark underarms typically involves the use of laser technology to target and break down excess pigmentation in the skin. The process is known as laser skin lightening or laser skin rejuvenation. During the procedure, the laser emits light that is absorbed by the melanin in the skin, helping to reduce pigmentation and promote a more even skin tone. Multiple sessions may be required for optimal results. It's crucial to consult with a dermatologist or a qualified skincare professional to assess your specific needs, skin type, and eligibility for the treatment.

It's been two months I have a pimple like button on my face , any sort of scratches or irritation to it and it bleeds out constantly pouring blood, it itches and it's not vanishing.. I've been wearing a plaster on my face to cover it up but the blood pours through the plaster, it stops bleeding then if I bathe and washes my face it starts back..
Female | 25
It sounds like you may be dealing with a persistent skin issue, which could be an infection or another dermatological condition. The bleeding and itching indicate that it requires professional examination. Avoid any irritation and refrain from scratching the area, as this could worsen it. Please consider consulting a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized treatment plan. They can provide effective options to promote healing and alleviate discomfort.

Hi I am a 35 year old woman , I have very annoying spots all around my behind area and I don't know how to get rid of them.
Female | 35
You might be dealing with a common issue called acne. The back can easily get acne due to things like friction from clothes, sweating, or clogged hair follicles. To treat these spots, keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use over-the-counter acne treatments with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid.

Acne and dark spot problem faceing under 3-4year,so how can repair it and glow my face?
Male | 18
These pimples may develop due to disturbances in hormone levels, indirect effects of the diet, or due to an allergic reaction to some skin care products. If you want beautiful skin, practice gentle cleansing, make sure you do not use comedogenic skin lotion, and wear sunscreen for better results. You can also use compresses or poultices made of natural plants such as aloe vera which contain vitamin C to give the skin a better glow and glow. However, I advise you to request an opinion from a dermatologist about the proper treatment which is a safe one for you.

Female | 18
You may have eczema, a condition that can lead to itchy, inflamed patches of skin that usually show up on the back of your knees. This happens when your skin gets too dry and irritated. To relieve your symptoms, try using a mild moisturizer and staying away from strong soaps or detergents. If this doesn’t help, talk to a dermatologist who can give you more advice.

These spots can be from a skin problem called dermatitis. Many common things like some soaps or clothes can make your skin mad. To fix the spots, try to stay away from the things that bother your skin. You can also put on a lotion to help your skin heal. But if the spots don't go away, it is smart to talk to a dermatologist for more help.

You probably have a sinus infection. As a result, you might experience fatigue, headache, sore throat, and swollen mouth. The spots on your tongue may suggest an infection too. To feel better, drink water, rest, and see a dermatologist for further advice.

Female | 18
You're experiencing a combination of symptoms that could be related to an underlying health issue. Persistent fever, cold, weakness, and significant hair loss over several months can sometimes point to problems like nutritional deficiencies, thyroid issues, or even an infection. It's important to consult a general physician or an endocrinologist who can evaluate your symptoms properly and suggest the right treatment.

Acne manifests as small bumps and blackheads appear as clogged pores with dark color. They can be caused by excessive fat on the face's skin and bacteria. It is advisable to wash your face daily, using a gentle cleanser. Touching your face should be avoided. In case no improvements, visiting a dermatologist is an option.

thanks acutely maine physician doctor ko dhikhaya tha and blackness chali gyi but after treament thoda redness hai blackness jane ke baad so i am worry scar rahega ya jayega screen pr koi damage nhi dikh rha
Female | 22
Mild redness is usual after treatment and it occurs as the skin is repaired. The blackness you brought up is most likely a wound or an irritation, and it usually gets better over time. Scarring is a lot of times not significant, especially if you take good care of it. To encourage healing, do not allow any irritation to the same place, and also apply some cream, do not spend time under the sun, and you will see the difference. If you feel that the rash doesn't go away or gets worse, I recommend you to get in touch with your dermatologist for the proper evaluation.

I'm 23 yr old. I've been experiencing pain and burning inflammation sensations under my left breast right below the nipple for 2 days now. there's no symption visible apart from swelling but i can feel some hard cyst like structure below the nipple. Please help!
Female | 23
You might have mastitis, a condition causing breast pain, swelling, and inflammation. That hard cyst-like lump could be an abscess - a pocket of infection. Mastitis happens when milk ducts get blocked, bacteria infect the area, or engorgement occurs. Applying warm compresses and gently massaging the spot might relieve discomfort. However, if symptoms don't improve or worsen, it's wise to see a dermatologist for proper evaluation and potential treatment.
