It sounds like you might be experiencing recurring symptoms, which can be frustrating. Infections can be caused by various factors, including bacteria or viruses, and may result in symptoms like pain, fever, or discomfort. It’s important to identify the specific type of infection, as different treatments are required. I recommend consulting a dermatologist who can perform thorough evaluations and possibly suggest a tailored treatment plan. Keeping hydrated, maintaining good hygiene, and following medical advice are key steps in your recovery.

My son has a condition where there is some inverted hair in the back hip area. The doctor recommended getting laser treatment for the removal and to cure pilonidal sinus. His skin is normal. My question is, Which laser should we opt for, how many sitting and the total cost required? Options nearby Mathura would be better.

Laser hair reduction- Diode and triple wave is good. Cost of Laser Hair Removal differs from place to place and city to City. Sorry I am unable to help you out as Mathura is a place I am not very much aware about

The red and circular patches that have spread all over your body might be ringworm. This is a fungal infection that requires specific antifungal drugs like Terbinafine or Clotrimazole in many cases. The affected areas should be kept tidy and dry; loose clothes may also be worn.

I am experiencing some concerning symptoms around the genital area. There is significant redness on the head of the penis and on the skin when it is pulled back. Additionally, a large, raised bump that resembles a pus-filled lesion has appeared on the head of the penis. There is also an unpleasant smell that persists despite washing and maintaining hygiene. The area has small spots and pimples, and the overall appearance is quite inflamed and abnormal. I also feel a burning sensation and itching in the area, which have not improved with regular cleaning. I would appreciate your guidance on this. I am not very sexually active(once a month)

The redness, bumps, and horrible odor are the issues, and the burning and the itching bother you more than they should. Proper hygiene is a defense against the illness; however, self-treatment may not be effective. You should go to a dermatologist to be examined thoroughly and receive accurate tests. They can draw up a diagnostic and treatment plan that suits your condition and deals with the symptoms efficiently.

I had gyno at 13 in both breasts,now I am 18 years old,one breast is totally recovered but other one is still assymmetrical,it's nipple so assymmetrical,but pain and hardness in nipple is no more,now my concern is have I not infected by Klinefelter syndrom,I am so worry

Male | 18

It's great to hear that you've seen improvement in one breast. Some asymmetry can be normal, especially during development. Gynecomastia, which you've experienced, often resolves on its own. Klinefelter syndrome involves other symptoms like reduced testosterone or fertility issues, which you haven't mentioned. Since you no longer have pain or hardness, that's a positive sign. Nevertheless, if you’re concerned about any remaining asymmetry or other symptoms, I recommend consulting a plastic surgeon for personalized advice and reassurance. They can provide a thorough evaluation to address any worries you may have.

How many hair is good for transplant and how i should be caring? explain some major factor behind hair fall and ways to control it.

Male | 28

The number and type of graft you get will depend on your hair type, quality, color, and the size of the area where you will be getting the transplant. In general, the number of grafts for FUE hair transplant in one sitting of 6-8 hours, can go up to 2500-3000.
