Should I Take Beazyme and Amoxicillin Together for Swelling?
I am 27 years old and yesterday I just did fat burner on my double chin and nose thread. Today my face swelling so bad. I couldn’t even open my mouth properly. My beautician gave me 2 types of medication. She ask me to take this medication to reduce swelling : 3 tablets of beazyme and 2 capsules of amoxicillin (0.5g) consume at once. Is this okay to take this dose at the same time?

Swelling after such procedures can be explained by the human body's natural reaction to the treatment. The doses your beautician recommended are likely to be too high to take at once. It is very important to schedule the doses of the medicine at the proper time and take only what is prescribed by a doctor to lower the chances of any complications. If the swelling stays the same or worsens, go to a dermatologist.

Skin is sensitive to sun. skin gets dark easily when exposed to sun (using purito daily go to sunscreen). Uneven skin tone, sometimes dry and sometimes oily. Dry rough patches on chin and sometimes it peels off. Also having milky color on some parts of my face. I used to use a herbal way to get rid of it. It comes and goes. I want to lighten up my skin tone and have a glass, tight and flawless bright skin. Also, I'm having severe hairfall. My hair was straight and had low to medium porosity. For past 5 years, my hair completely changed and damaged. Upper part of hair is extremely high porosity. Became curl, dry, damaged and fluffy and plastic type while the inner portion is almost straight and medium porosity. What should I do?

It sounds like you might be dealing with a combination of skin issues, such as acne, sensitivity, and possibly melasma, along with hair problems. I recommend visiting a dermatologist, who can examine your skin and hair in detail. They will be able to guide you with proper treatments, including products for sensitive skin and hair care routines. It's important to avoid self-treatment and get a personalized plan from a specialist.

Ringworm is a cutaneous infection which a fungus causes. Symptoms such as red, itchy, and scaly spots that look like circles may occur on the skin. The ringworm can be transmitted through contact with infected people, pets, or objects like shared towels. Therapy involves antifungal creams or tablets. You can also prevent the spreading of the infection by keeping the area clean and dry.

What caused swollen, painful marks on my hand and elbow?
Today in the morning I had a little mark like I was bitten by something one at the back of my hand the other near my elbow now both are really swollen and painful but they are not itchy as in the morning what could that be and what do I do cause I'm worried

You may be a victim of an insect or spider bite. In some cases, though, these bites can make a person swell and feel pain. Although it's not itchy right now, the reaction can be different in the future. To help, clean the bites gently with soap and water, apply a cold compress like a cool cloth, and take over-the-counter pain relievers for the discomfort. If the swelling doesn't go away or new symptoms appear, it's better to contact a dermatologist for advice.

My dad has a white patch near chest. Is it worrisome
Dr. Deepak Jakhar
Dermatologist
Answered on 18th Sept '24
A white patch on the neck could be a condition called pityriasis versicolor, caused by yeast growth on the skin. It usually leads to white patches without other symptoms. Anti-fungal creams or shampoos prescribed by a dermatologist can help treat it. Keeping the area clean and dry is also important.

What facewash and serum suit my oily, acne-prone skin?
My face having to much pimple and acne.my skin type is oily which facewash and serum I use for my skin please give me suggestions
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 18th Sept '24
Oily skin is common and can lead to pimples and acne. The symptoms are so shiny skin, big pores, and sometimes breakouts. The cause of oily skin is the excessive sebum production by the skin. Salicylic acid face wash to unclog pores will suffice for this purpose. Oil control is also possible with a serum containing niacinamide.

Zit in ear canal – what should I do?
I have a zit in ear canal
Dr. Ishmeet Kaur
Dermatologist
Answered on 18th Sept '24
Ear canal pimples can occur due to the oil build-up and dead skin cells blocking the way. The initial and most common sign usually is pain, also you may experience a little bit of tenderness and itchiness in that region. To help it, try putting a warm compress on the area, and do not squeeze or pick at it. If the problem persists or increases, it is advisable to consult a dermatologist.

Could my recurring nose pimple be squamous cell carcinoma?
I'm 20 year old male i had this pimple on my nose which is not going away since six months it crusts and comes back again it shows symptoms of squamous cell carcinoma please help
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 18th Sept '24
A pimple that won't disappear and crusts on your nose for six months may be a warning for something more serious. Squamous cell carcinoma, which is a form of skin cancer, can sometimes appear like this. It requires a doctor's attention. This may include a biopsy to confirm the diagnosis and a dermatologist may also suggest the best treatment which can be surgery or other options.

Why is my right breast bump hot, swollen, and painful?
I'm 21 female I have a bump above my right boob it's hot in that area and swollen and it hurts bad to the touch.
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 18th Sept '24
Your description makes me think of you having an infection or an abscess over your right breast. The situation may arise when water germs sneak into the skin causing swelling, redness, and pain. The main thing is to keep the area clean where the warm compresses are applied to help you relieve the pain. When the bump does not get better over time or gets worse, the first thing to do is to go to a dermatologist.

Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Answered on 18th Sept '24
Hair loss can be caused by stress, hormonal imbalances, or health issues like PCOS. In your case, the shedding might be related to these factors. The good news is that it should improve as your menstrual cycle regulates. Eating well, managing stress, and self-care will help your hair grow back stronger.

Could HIV be transmitted via diabetic needle prick?
Is there a chance to be caught by Hiv if someone's diabetes needle pricked my hand
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 18th Sept '24
The likelihood of HIV infection is negligible if a diabetic needle pricks your hand. HIV is transferred via blood, however, the needle prick is not a high-risk exposure. If you are concerned, watch out for symptoms such as flu, fever, or rash. If you see them, go to a doctor.

Did Detol burn cause stubborn facial brown patch?
I applied undiluted dettol on my face [acne region (cheek and forehead) as it was bleeding] and forgot to wash it off. This later burnt my skin and now two months later theres a brownish patch which I am unable to get rid of regardless of how many scars removal cream and depigmenting creams I have used. Please help me recognise the problem with a solution for the same. Thank you.
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 13th Sept '24
Undiluted Dettol is said to cause burns and dark patches on the skin, especially the sensitive area of the face. The brownish skin spot that you have may be the result of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. To discolor the patch, avoid sun exposure by applying sunscreen, and think about visiting a dermatologist for chemical peels or laser therapy treatment.

Can crown hair loss be effectively treated?
Can hair loss at crown be treated effectively?
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 13th Sept '24
Hair loss in the crown area, often called a bald spot, is usually hereditary. Yes, it runs in the family! Other factors like stress, poor diet, and certain illnesses can also contribute. DHT blockers like Propecia (finasteride) and minoxidil (Rogaine) may slow hair loss in men. It's always best to consult a dermatologist for advice.
