White patches on your shaft are around sometimes because of a fungal infection called candidiasis or a disorder like lichen planus. These can show up after sex, especially if unprotected. These can be cured by taking medications ordered by a doctor after proper diagnosis.

I am 19 years old and I have a sore on my frenulum on my penis, I discovered it when last hard sex because I was feeling the pain and sometimes the pain is also on the on the corona of glans and the neck of glans
Male | 19
It seems like you might be having a sore on your penis in the frenulum, corona of the glans, or neck of the glans. This can result from irritation or small injuries caused by rough sex. One thing you cannot ignore is to give it some rest and not engage in sexual activity for a while. Keeping the afflicted area clean and dry will speed up its recovery. If the problem doesn't subside, and you are concerned about it, then the best thing would be to have it examined by a dermatologist.

Psoriasis Do you have the treatment for this disease? The child is in a lot of pain, please help us a little.
Male | 26
Psoriasis is a common disease that causes red, painful, and rough patches on the skin. It happens when the immune system goes out of control and skin cells grow too fast. A dermatologist can prescribe therapy to relieve the skin. After treatment, using creams or lotions helps reduce dryness and itching. Keeping the skin clean and well-moisturized can also help reduce discomfort.

Male | 24
A big lump with a tiny pale spot on your bottom lip could happen for different causes. Sometimes, it could be a harmless sore, a pimple, or an allergic response. However, if it does not vanish or keeps growing, it is best to have a health specialist look just to be safe. .

I am experiencing hives and itchiness and tightness in my throad since morning
Female | 22
You are having an allergy. Developing urticarial, itchy, and constriction of the throat can indicate an immune problem. Some of the most common allergens are, for example, such things as foods, insect stings, and medications. An over-the-counter antihistamine like Benadryl can relieve some of the symptoms. You should consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Actually I switched shampoo so I'm facing alot of hairfall I stopped using that shampoo but still there's no difference please help me with this
Female | 22
Different factors like allergies or harsh ingredients might cause hair loss. Your scalp needs time to recover. For now, switch back to your old shampoo. Use a gentle conditioner too. Natural oils like coconut or almond can nourish hair and scalp. Be gentle when brushing or styling to avoid damage. If hair keeps falling out for weeks, consult a dermatologist.

I am burn tomorrow with oil so i am some burn maks in my face so please recommend some medicine so i the maks were invisible
Female | 19
The skin will quickly heal but, in the process, it may develop some marks. The skin appears normal at first but later the burn marks appear. To help the marks fade, you can buy a cream from the pharmacy that contains either vitamin E or aloe vera. They can be of help in the healing process and also, they can make the marks less visible.

For vitiligo problem please inform me details
Female | 60
Vitiligo is a skin infection that shows up as white regions on the skin. The main path to getting these is when the skin's melanocyte cells add color. Even though why the cells die is a mystery, for the time being, the immune system might be at fault. A cure for vitiligo doesn't exist, but with therapies such as light therapy or creams, patients can experience some relief. Remember to take care of your skin using sunblock as well. If the condition doesn't improve, please visit a dermatologist.

Iam 20 years old female. I want to know why I loss upto about 8-10 eyebrows hair daily. Is eyebrow hair falling is normal or not. What should I do to stop it?
Female | 20
Some hair on the eyebrows falls out each day as part of the natural hair growth cycle, which involves transitions through the growth, resting, and slipping phases. Causes such as anxiety, nutrient deficiencies, uneven hormone levels, or too much plucking might cause hair to fall out excessively. In order to foster the development of healthy hair, consider eating a nutrient-rich diet, drinking water, and not using products that can harm your hair such as perming and coloring. If the hair vasculature starts to thin or you get areas, or the hair loss remains, it is best to see a medical professional.

i got a bite from an unknown insect on my hand and there is some pimples and itching in that area . my pt inr is also showing high . what does it mean?
Male | 26
You may have gotten bitten by an insect, which your body doesn't like at all. Sometimes, such bites can result in skin all lumpy and itchy, as you have mentioned. If your PT INR levels are high, it indicates that your blood may take a longer time to clot. You should apply some anti-itch cream on the bite and also visit the physician to do your PT INR check. They could need to adjust your medicine.

I have really big air blisters on both my big toes
Male | 18
Foot blisters often happen when shoes rub against the skin. Big air blisters on your big toes can be particularly uncomfortable. To help them heal, try cushioned bandages and well-fitting shoes. Don't pop them yourself, that risks infection. Visit a dermatologist if you need to.

Peeling skin on thumb with sore. What can I do?
Female | 34
The peeling skin could be caused by irritation, dryness, or an allergic reaction. Perhaps, the soreness comes from the skin being a bit burned. Keep your hands moisturized with lotion and don't pick at the skin. If it's not getting any better or if it's getting worse, visit a dermatologist.

Swelling and burning sensation behind pennis head area also small wounds there
Male | 36
It seems to me that you might have a condition known as balanitis. This is a term used when there is some swelling, burning and small sores on the skin behind the head of the penis (foreskin). Tight clothing or poor hygiene can lead to this. Try washing gently with warm water and mild soap. Avoid wearing tight clothes and keep the area dry. If it does not improve then see a urologist who will probably prescribe medicine for it.

Pimple on anus giving pain
Male | 30
This may occur because of a swollen hair follicle or clogged gland; at times, it could indicate infection. If within some days the condition does not improve along with the bump becoming painful, then visit a dermatologist. Also, ensure to keep the place tidy while putting on loose clothes for comfort.

White patches on scalp so Hair grow white about 12years present my age 23years please advice permanent treatment about this
Male | 23
White spotting on the scalp may suggest the disease called alopecia araeta which causes the hair to fall off in patches. It is a treatable problem, the solution to which depends on the intensity of the problem itself. The skin condition should be assessed by a dermatologist for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Several reasons for female baldness at the age of 18 include hormonal imbalances, stress factors in one’s life, taking certain medicines and underlying medical conditions. A visit to a hair loss dermatologist will help discover the underlying causes of this condition and recommend suitable treatments. Early intervention frequently results in good outcomes.

72 years old male with wart like small multiple pimples on thigh and back for the past 1 week Extreme burning sensation and unable to sleep Wants to attach pic but no option available
Male | 72
These pimples signify an infection called shingles, which takes place due to the emergence of intense burning and blisters on the skin. The incidence of shingles results from the reactivation of the chickenpox virus in your body. Step one in calming down the discomfort and sleeping well is to apply a cool, damp cloth to the damaged areas to cool the burning feeling and consume over-the-counter painkillers. You must see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and start the proper treatment.

Male | 26
There are a few products available to help with dandruff. Better to use those that contain selenium sulfide, zinc pyrithione, or ketoconazole. These ingredients are known to help reduce dandruff. Avoid styling products that contain alcohol, as these can dry out and irritate the scalp. Talk to your doctor about any underlying conditions it could be a sign of an infection or other medical condition.
