Could white patches on my hips be concerning?
I am a 17 year old girl, recently I noticed some white small point sized or slightly bigger patches on my hips. I don't know what to do, but I'm afraid this might be some big disease.

Answered on 23rd May '24
It might be a common skin condition called pityriasis alba. This isn't something to worry about. Pityriasis alba can lead to pale patches on the skin, mainly on the face, neck, and arms. You can see them better in summer when your skin is darker. Dryness is what makes the skin turn lighter than it’s supposed to be, the reason for this happening is mostly because of dryness. You might also want to consider moisturizing your skin more often with lotion, or drinking plenty of water helps too. If there is no change after doing all these things then go to a dermatologist who will advise on treatment methods for this condition.

Answered on 23rd May '24
You get pimples when the pores on your skin get blocked by oil and dead cells. An extra breakout might be a result of eating too much sugar. Softly washing your face every day could help relieve acne. Besides, say no to sweet stuff. Finally, use acne products that contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid as ingredients. All the same, you should know that seeing any changes may take a while. You can also visit a dermatologist for solutions to your acne.

This hard mass might be a lipoma, which is usually harmless and consists of fat cells. These growths mainly develop under the skin and grow slowly over time. Although it is good that you have had a scan, sometimes further tests are necessary for conclusive results. However, if it is very painful or bothers you a lot, consider consulting with a surgeon who may recommend its removal.

How can I treat severe acne with pus?
I have acne all over my face... It has been 3 years since I have acne... My acnes has pus and blood filled inside.. I am currently using topical benzoyl peroxide... Before i had a course of ezythromycin but I guess it didn’t work... Please prescribe me some medicine
Dr. Anju Methil

What happens with acne is hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. Acne filled with pus or blood means that it is infected. When it comes to treating them, using topical benzoyl peroxide is quite helpful while for severe cases, oral antibiotics such as doxycycline may be necessary. Make sure you continue your treatment regularly and keep your face clean so as not to get more pimples. You can also visit a dermatologist for further treatment.
