Is Painful, Red Spot on Daughter's Tummy Serious?
Hi my daughter has a spot on her tummy and it's painful to touch and it's all red with little white spots around it
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 8th Oct '24
Your daughter most probably has a skin infection called Impetigo. A painful, red spot with white spots around it is a symptom of this illness. This is due to bacteria entering the skin, which usually happens when a cut or insect bite is present. To deal with this issue, keep the area clean, apply antibiotic cream, and cover it with a bandage. Make sure she doesn't scratch it to prevent spreading the infection.

I am a 25 year old male and I have a skin condition around my testicles. It has been for over 2 years now. It appears to be a like a patch on the skin around my testicles. I recently got married 3 months ago. About a week ago, my crotch started giving out a pungent smell similar to that of chlorine despite washing it several times a day. Also, I observed small rashes on my scrotum and the skin peels when scratching it. Please I need your help.

You might have a skin condition known as tinea cruris, or jock itch. This is a fungal infection that often affects the groin area. Symptoms include red, itchy patches of skin, a bad smell, and peeling skin. It can be caused by sweating, tight clothing, or poor hygiene. To treat it, it is important to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose clothing, and use antifungal creams.

It's not normal to have a pimple on the penis for 2 months, especially if it's now painful and swollen with white pus. It might be an infection. Keep the area clean and dry. Avoid picking or squeezing it. Using water that has been warmed or a warm compress can help in soothing it. If you have a condition that doesn't get better or gets worse, it's better to see a dermatologist.

You may have a skin allergy causing swelling, pain, and white blisters on your left neck, which are now spreading to your shoulders and back. This could be due to contact with an allergen like a chemical or plant. Using Clobenate GM might not be the only solution. It’s a good idea to stop using Boroline and consult your dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan. Avoid scratching to prevent the condition from worsening.

You might have genital warts, which are infected by a virus named HPV. These warts are usually located in the genital area and some cases, they disappear on their own, but they can reappear. It's crucial to get an opinion from a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis and suitable treatment. Treatment options might include medicines or procedures for the removal of the warts.

Your wife is likely to have an infection at the injection site. The symptoms such as heat, pain, and redness are caused when the bacteria get in. The area needs to be cleaned gently and the healthcare provider must be consulted. Antibiotics may be recommended to eliminate the infection. Do not use ice or cover it up without advice as it may aggravate the problem.

Why is my skin dull, rough, and dry?
My skin is very dull and roughness my skin is no glow and shine and very dry skin
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 7th Oct '24
Seems like your skin is not shining with the desired brightness and is rather dull, rough, and dry. When skin reflects this quality, it could be a sign that it is not receiving enough water give and nutrients. The skin can become dry due to things like hot showers, harsh soaps, and not drinking enough water. Using gentle cleansers, drinking water, and applying moisturizer can help to the skin regain its glow and softness.

Why Do I Have No Beard At 21?
I am 21 year old male,, and i have no beard,, what i should do now?
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 7th Oct '24
Generally, 21-year-old guys can have varying facial hair, from full beards to barely any growth. Don’t worry if you don’t have a beard yet. Your body may still be developing, which can affect facial hair growth. Hormones play a big role in this process. By eating a balanced diet, exercising, and getting enough sleep, your hormone levels can remain balanced, supporting beard growth. If you have concerns, it’s always a good idea to consult a dermatologist.

The boil-like structure could be a symptom of an infection. Pain and irritation while urinating are the most frequent. These include antibiotics or antifungal creams to help with the infection. The area should be kept clean and dry for a quicker recovery process. Drink lots of water and do not use strong soaps on the wound.

Why is my penis tip red and inflamed?
Small mark on tip of penis. Almost like a pimple, becomes inflamed sometimes and turns red.
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 4th Oct '24
It seems you might have an issue such as balanitis, a common and naturally occurring thing among men. It can be seen in a small mole-like structure on the tip of the penis that is occasionally pus-filled, and it could get inflamed and red. It could also be connected with the frequency of penis washing, or it could even be traced back to some personal hygiene habits or yet another significant thing like any irritability that might be caused by soap or disinfectant. Frequent washing and drying of the area are key to a better outcome. The application of mild soaps and the avoidance of harsh chemicals are also helpful strategies. Wearing comfortable, breathable clothes and underwear made of cotton is also good. Wear only loose-fitting clothing and wear underwear made of soft, comfy cotton. When all else fails after a week or two and the results don't get better, it is a good time to see a dermatologist, possibly for further evaluation or to control the underlying issue.

Why Do I Have Nipple Pain for Weeks?
I got nipples pain for few weeks
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 4th Oct '24
Painful nipple sensations can be annoying but they are quite common and usually not serious. Sometimes it occurs due to hormonal changes such as during periods or pregnancies. Scratching or a minor bump caused by an activity can be another cause. Choose to wear the comfiest clothes and bras. If the pain persists or worsens, visit a dermatologist to discuss it.

Could golf ball-sized swelling on buttocks be serious?

Dr. Anju Methil

Answered on 4th Oct '24
You are suffering from a band called pilonidal cysts. These swellings may lead to discomfort and soreness in the rear end. Pilonidal cysts are the results of hair follicles blocking each other. If you are looking for natural remedies, you can use warm compresses and over-the-counter pain relievers to ease the pain. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist for the right diagnosis and treatment.

Which is the best kojic acid soap for daily use to reduce melanin?
I am 18 years old teenager and I want to remove tanning from my whole body and I also want to reduce the melanin secretion in my body ..so please prefer me best kojic acid soap for daily use
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 4th Oct '24
Tanning is produced by the skin when it absorbs more sunlight. This is the process that involves melanin, a protein that protects the skin. To decrease tanning and melanin, try a kojic acid soap. This soap can decrease the melanin in your skin and thus brighten your skin's color. For best results, use it daily.
