Why Does My Brother Have Skin Bumps & Blemishes?
Dear Dr I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out regarding my brother's skin condition. He has developed small, lightly red bumps along with some small dry red blemishes on his body, primarily on his torso, hands, and inner thighs. These spots are not itchy or painful, but they have persisted for a while. Could you kindly advise on what the condition might be and recommend the most effective treatment to help him get rid of these spots completely? Thank you very much for your time and expertise. We would appreciate any guidance you can offer. Best regards,

Your brother might be suffering from a skin condition named eczema, or it is known as atopic dermatitis. It is the first step to the development of red bumps and dry, scaly patches on the skin. The development of eczema can be sometimes as a result of dry skin, stress, or allergies. To relieve symptoms, recommend your brother to apply soft moisturizers, avoid soaps that are too strong, cover him with comfortable and breathable clothes. If the problems will continue, seek the advice of a dermatologist.

How to treat dark spots and acne?
I am 34 years I have facing dark spot and acne in cheeks Please give any suggestions
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 11th Nov '24
Acne occurs when the oil and the dead skin cells can no longer exit through the pores, thus they produce pimples. The dark marks left by the acne might be possible. A gentle cleanser that is used twice daily and an oil-free moisturizer every other day can be helpful. Besides, try using the products that contain benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to cure acne.

Your child may have a skin condition called eczema, which affects only a limited number of children. Eczema can sometimes be accompanied by irritation, redness, and itching of the skin. It's quite common in infants. Changing the soap that is used could be a solution, but that is not always the case. Use a mild moisturizer that is not perfumed and avoid harsh soaps from your baby's routine. However, the problem continues, it is wiser to see a dermatologist for guidance.

Why do I have black spots and pimples?
I am black spots my face and pimples
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 11th Nov '24
The dark spots could result from excess pigmentation or skin irritation. Pimples result from the pores being blocked and the presence of bacteria. To help, wash your face twice a day, prefer soft, antioxidant skincare products, and never touch your face. If the situation is unchanged, it is recommended to visit a dermatologist for guidance.

Can I get HIV from using friend's derma roller?
I am a 18 year old male. I used my friends derma roller . And now I am anxious if I can get hiv from it although he doesn't have hiv. The roller was disinfected before I used it with spray alcohol.
Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Answered on 11th Nov '24
It is safe to use a friend's derma roller after disinfection if it has been sprayed with alcohol. HIV is a sexual infection; sharing needles is one of the transmitter. A sterilized roller is thus no cause of fear or stress if someone else has got HIV. Such sterilized tools do not risk transmitting HIV.

Could ink pen injury cause various symptoms without healing?
I'm a 27 year old male and about two weeks ago I accidentally stabbed my hand with an ink pen and there's been a black sack or lump on it since and it doesn't look like it's healing even though it doesn't hurt. Since then I've had headaches, stomach pain, chest pain, left arm and hand pain, back pain, brain fog, fast heart rate, and tingling every day. I also took nsaids every days as well so I don't know if I'm sick from stomach inflammation or if I have an infection. I can't go to the doctor's because I don't have health insurance. What should I do?
Dr. Anju Methil
Cosmetologist
Answered on 11th Nov '24
A part of your hand, likely where the infection started, may have been affected by the pen blast. This infection could now be spreading and causing other symptoms like headaches, stomach pain, tingling, and a fast heart rate. This is serious, as it can lead to tissue damage and become life-threatening if it spreads through your blood. Getting immediate medical treatment from a dermatologist is essential.
If you’ve been using nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) daily, which can harm the upper GI tract, consult a doctor. You should get tested for Helicobacter pylori, and if positive, start the recommended treatment. Consulting a gastroenterologist for ways to help your stomach heal can also be beneficial.

Why do I have black bumps on my chest?
I saw few bumps on my chest black in color...my skin color is brown.They are few in number 3-4. I had fungal infection and I took medicine and anti fungal cream from my doctor which caused itchiness ,I started using NEEM soap which reduced those symptoms . But these bumps on chest remained , and I searched this on google and it showed extreme results so I'm concerned .please help
Dr. Anju Methil

Answered on 11th Nov '24
The lumps on your chest may be a frequent phenomenon doctors refer to as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is a condition that is characterized by skin discoloration because of the old inflammatory lesions like those caused by the normal Trychophyton infection. In brief, these lumps are just the parts of your skin that were affected and are now darker because of that. Neem soap was an appropriate choice to lessen the itching, but for these bumps, it is better to let them dissipate by themselves. If you notice any changes or the bumps do not get better, then it would be a smart decision to get a consultation with a dermatologist.

Why Do I Have Whiteheads on My Nose?
Hello I have nose Whitehead
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 11th Nov '24
It is typical for the nose to have whiteheads. These are the things that we, the people, call tiny white spots and that are the result of oil and dead skin cells that have clogged pores. Might be you just have oily skin or acne. Whereas a gentle cleanser will be enough to remove dirt from your face when you wash your face twice a day. Do not squeeze out the whiteheads to avoid infection. Non-comedogenic products should be used, and you may visit a dermatologist for more recommendations.

Face pimple and itching and spot
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 11th Nov '24
Pimples are a result of pore closures on the skin due to the plugs made of oil and dirt. Itching might be a symptom of your skin being inflamed. To relieve the problem, gently clean your skin with a mild cleaner, don't pick or squeeze the pimple, and use a spot treatment with ingredients such as salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide.

I am a 37 year old female and have cellulitis. I’ve been on antibiotics for a little over 36 hours but the pain is getting worse. The rash doesn’t seem to be spreading but it’s getting harder and darker

Answered on 11th Nov '24
Cellulitis is a skin infection that may exhibit symptoms such as redness, swellings, and pains. Sometimes, it might even make you look more like a bruiser before getting better. The treatment needs a bit of mystery, so it would be wise to give it a little time before you see the full effects. You should not forget to take them at the prescribed time and also be sure to drink enough water. If the pain becomes unbearable or you notice any other alarming symptoms, you should contact a dermatologist.

The bump that is under your jawline could be a swollen lymph node. They typically appear as warm, reddish, and sore. Treating it at home, you can soak warm compresses in the area and maintain cleanliness. If the condition doesn't get better in a few days or worsens, you might have to visit a dermatologist for other treatments.

You may have a condition called penile adhesions, where skin at the top of the penis sticks to the head, causing discomfort and interfering with urination. Treatment usually involves a simple procedure to release the skin. Don’t leave it untreated—consult a dermatologist if you suspect this condition.

How to Remove Pigmentation and Tan?
PIGMENTATION TANG REMOVER
Dr. Archit Aggarwal
Trichologist
Answered on 7th Nov '24
Pigmentation that occurs as a result of tanning removal agents is a skin problem where dark, scaly, patches appear. Symptoms may be monotonous and the colored patches that occur on the skin. Tang removers are composed of potent chemicals that can harm your skin and lead to these patches. To do this, first, you should stop using the tan remover and instead shift to more skin-friendly products. If the case is like this, shield them from the sun.

However, the sun, hormonal changes, and skin inflammation commonly constitute the main factors behind it. In the fading of these spots, you might try products containing such ingredients as vitamin C, niacinamide, or retinol. Mela glow cream might be effective, nevertheless, before applying the cream, ask a dermatologist. Never forget to use sunscreen to shield your skin.

Why do I have itchy red rashes after using hair removal spray?
I applied hair removal spray on my chest and legs. Now I am feeling itchy and red rashes have appeared on my legs.
Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Itchy and red rashes are some of the common signs of sensitivity when your skin's non-acceptance is projected. This might be due to the presence of certain chemicals in the spray to which your skin is sensitive. Perhaps, you should try a gentle body lotion to reduce the itching and rashes.
