It seems you are facing a heat rash which is a common condition. Your skin gets too hot due to the sun and it can make your skin red, itchy, and throbbing. After a time, you should avoid wearing clothes that are too tight. Make sure to wear cool, loose-fitting clothes. Moreover, always keep below clean and dry when there is a chance of heat rash. Calamine lotion can also be a good option to use to relieve the burning skin. Drinking enough water is important.

It seems you have been stung by some bug which punctured your skin. This can cause sudden redness, intense pain, and itching. You need to clean the place softly with water and soap, and then apply an antiseptic cream. Finally, put an adhesive bandage on it to help it heal. If it intensifies or you feel weak, you can contact a dermatologist.

Have low iron & D3 caused my hair loss?
I am facing hair loss problem since 5 years 6 months ago I consulted a dermatologist after tests I have low iron and d3 levels I used tablets 2 months and I used minoxidil bit I faced un wanted ahir so i stopped that topical minoxidil my hair was so long but now it almost damaged

The hair loss you are going through is because you have low ferritin and low vitamin D levels in your body. This will also lead to your hair becoming fragile and eventually falling out. Whenever you try stopping treatments suddenly, you will face more hair loss. Be patient and at the same time try to take your iron and D3 supplements regularly. Talk to the dermatologist again for his contribution. It takes time for the hair to grow, so try to remain calm and give your hair a chance.

It sounds like you could be experiencing balanitis, inflammation of the foreskin of the penis, often caused by irritation or a yeast infection. Symptoms may include white pimples, swelling, and itchiness. Keeping the area clean and dry, avoiding irritants, and using over-the-counter antifungal cream can help relieve symptoms. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, it's crucial to seek immediate advice from a dermatologist for detailed assessment and medical treatment.

When your hair is very thin, dry, and frizzy, that may be due to several reasons. Factors could include anxiety, junk food, or overuse of strong hair treatment items. A balanced diet with proper eating habits, ways to manage stress, and the use of gentle hair products are all part of your prevention program. Visit the dermatologist to talk about suitable products.

Having white scare on foreskin and itching?
White scare on foreskin some time itching
Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Answered on 23rd May '24
It appears that you may be suffering from thrush, a fungal infection. White patches and itching on the foreskin are some of the most typical symptoms of it. This might occur when the balance of yeast is uneven which is why the pathogenic fungi will multiply. The use of a clean and dry area may eliminate this risk. It's best to consult a dermatologist who can prescribe anti-fungal medication tailored to your condition.

It's important to get examined by a healthcare professional, like a dermatologist or a urologist, to diagnose any concerns regarding HSV-1 or HSV-2 accurately.

Can dark and scaly marks on the penis be from masturbation?
I am an 18 year old male who has had a red mark, presumably from masturbation on my penis for the last couple of years. It hasn’t changed but I’ve persisted masturbation so maybe that’s why. The color of my skin there is dark so the mark looks reddish-pink and the skin is a bit scaly and dry but it does not hurt or bleed. I don’t know if it’s friction burn or something else.
Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Answered on 23rd May '24
It seems that what you are going through may likely be hyperpigmentation from inflammation. This could be caused by constant rubbing during the time you are masturbating which can result in rough, scaly skin that will be red or pink in color. Keeping the area clean, protected, and well moisturized is important. Using a mild, scentless moisturizer is a great way to start. Whether the symptoms persist or get more severe, it's worth making an appointment with a dermatologist so they can give you proper advice.

Dr. Anju Methil

Answered on 23rd May '24
It is not unusual for the untreated cut marks to turn into scars. Maybe the diluted glycerine solution will not be sufficient to help. You can consider adding some aloe vera gel to speed up the healing. Ensure the cut area is cleansed and well moisturized to let nature do the rest of the healing.

Is EliteGlo Cream Safe Without Steroids?
Is eliteglo cream is safe or its a steriod cream
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Eliteglo Cream is not considered safe due to its ingredient clobetasol, a corticosteroid, which can cause negative effects. Long-term use of steroid creams without medical supervision can thin the skin and lead to stretch marks and other skin conditions. Immediate effects like redness, itching, or burning are common but usually temporary. For personalized advice and safer alternatives, please consult a dermatologist.

Could my relative have fish skin condition?
Sir, the skin of one of my relatives is like fish skin all over his body. can this be true sir
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
Ichthyosis can create a scaly texture that looks like fish scales. It can make the skin acquire the form of dryness, i.e., thicker and appear through the outside. It's a genetic cause, so it's possible to be inherited. The best treatment for ichthyosis is avoiding situations that can trigger it. It does not have any cure; however, some moisturizers can decrease dryness. It is important to go to a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis and treatment.
