Dermatology

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

White spots on your leg may arise from various factors, including fungal infections, eczema, or vitiligo. These spots can often be harmless but may indicate an underlying condition. It's essential to monitor any accompanying symptoms, such as itching or changes in size. To address this, maintain good skin hygiene and consider using moisturizers. However, I strongly encourage scheduling an appointment with a dermatologist for a thorough evaluation.

Female | 35

It's essential to address the wounds on your legs and arms, especially given your diabetes. Poor healing can be due to various factors, including decreased blood flow and infection. Symptoms of gangrene may include discoloration, a foul smell, or significant pain; however, a professional assessment is crucial for accurate diagnosis. I recommend scheduling an appointment with your dermatologist as soon as possible. They can evaluate your condition, provide appropriate treatment options, such as antibiotics or wound care strategies, and guide you on managing your diabetes more effectively to improve healing.

Sir I am suffering from ring worm from 1 month

Male | 20

Ringworm is a common skin problem. It appears as red, circular spots. The spots come from a fungus living on your skin's surface. If you had ringworm for one month, treating it is crucial. Use antifungal cream as directed. Also, keep the infected area dry and clean. Doing this helps ringworm heal quickly. Don't forget to wash your hands after touching the affected skin. If it doesn't heal, visit a dermatologist.

Female | 26

It looks like you might be dealing with a yeast infection. Common signs are itching around the private parts, redness, and thick white discharge. This is usually caused by antibiotics, tight clothing, or having a weak immune system. You can wear loose cotton panties to aid in relieving it, stay away from scented products, and try using over-the-counter antifungal creams. If the situation does not improve, visit a dermatologist.

Male | 47

If this did happen, don’t panic too much, as it can occur. Ketoconazole contains an ingredient that can be harmful when ingested. Symptoms such as stomach ache, nausea, or vomiting are likely to occur. If you notice any of these signs, seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, try not to get too worked up about it. Instead, drink plenty of water to help reduce the concentration of the drug in your system.

my friend literally woke up with a swollen right side of her face. she had experienced pain on her mouth. the dentist could find nothing wrong and prescribed an antibiotic with no results. her face remains swollen with no discomfot or mobility problems. what would have caused this.

Female | 54

Your friend might suffer from sialadenitis, an inflamed salivary gland condition. A blockage prevents smooth saliva flow, causing swelling and pain around the jaw. Since teeth weren't problematic, glands could be the culprit. Warm compresses and water intake might ease discomfort by promoting saliva flow. However, if swelling persists, visiting a dermatologist is advisable for assessment and potential treatment.

Female | 21

You might have hives, which can be itchy skin and even swelling on your lips. Hives can be caused by different reasons such as allergies, stress, or infections. It is great that you have completely stopped using sulfur-containing products. Attempt to 'take an over-the-counter antihistamine' like diphenhydramine for help with itching and swelling. Besides, try to understand and avoid what could be the cause of your hives. If the issue persists, it is best to visit a dermatologist.

About my thumb in my thumb nail is not growing and 2 lines are there

Female | 17

The lack of growth and the presence of lines can occur due to several factors, such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or trauma to the area. Often, these issues are temporary and resolve on their own. However, it’s essential to ensure you’re getting proper nutrients and managing stress effectively. If the condition persists or worsens, I recommend consulting a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized advice. They can provide insights and solutions tailored to your specific needs.
