I am 17, since Wednesday I have felt very tired everyday even though I’ve slept well, I’ve had this constant headache near my nose eyes and head which won’t leave. I’ve had a sore throat but it doesn’t hurt to swallow, I looked in the mirror today and it’s red, my tongue has spots at the back and abit of my mouth is swollen I think.

You probably have a sinus infection. As a result, you might experience fatigue, headache, sore throat, and swollen mouth. The spots on your tongue may suggest an infection too. To feel better, drink water, rest, and see a dermatologist for further advice.

You’ve got a pretty common condition- the name of which is folliculitis. That’s what happens when the hair follicles get infected and cause reddish bumps to show up on the skin. It can happen after engaging in activities like shaving or when there’s friction during intercourse. For this, keep the area clean, avoid tight clothing, and use warm compresses. If it does not get better, see a dermatologist for further advice.

You’re using isotretinoin tablets for your skin, which is perfect for acne treatment. Sometimes, dermatologists may slow down visits due to financial problems. The doctor will constantly monitor your situation and modify the treatment accordingly. In case of any new symptoms or concerns, you should contact your dermatologist as soon as possible.

Using it together on a wringworm can actually make the fungus spread. It is recommended to only use antifungal medication to treat a wringworm, and consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Cats can scratch, and it happens. You've cleaned it properly, which is great. However, keep an eye out for signs of infection, like redness, swelling, warmth, or increasing pain near the scratch. If you notice any of these, see a doctor right away.

You may have a skin infection on your penis cap, which can occur after shaving. The bumps which get transformed to open wounds and are spreading could be a sign of a bacterial or fungal infection. Even though it's not itching, it's still important to get it checked by a dermatologist. The medicine might be antibiotics or antifungal cream for it to be better. Make sure you keep the area of the body clean and dry to avoid the further spreading of the infection.

Looks like it could be stomatitis, which can lead to swollen, red, itchy, or even painful lips. The reasons for this can be irritation, allergies, infections, or the lack of nutrients. Try eating bland and not acidic or spicy foods, keep drinking enough water, and think about using lip balm with calming ingredients like aloe vera or coconut oil. If the symptoms persist or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

The red bumps and itchiness can a fungal infection, particularly when they have various shapes and colors. Fungal infections are quite common in warm, and moist areas, which are the places where they often occur. The use of antifungal creams or powders is an effective way of clearing up these rashes. In addition, keeping the affected areas clean and dry will help to stop the fungus from spreading. If the rashes do not go away or worsen, see a dermatologist for the correct diagnosis and treatment plan.

The IgM test result which is less than 0.500 means there are no recent infections. However, the IgG test result of 0.87 indicates a past infection. You might commonly have symptoms such as blisters, pain, and itching. Nevertheless, treatments are available to cope with the symptoms and outbreaks, so, don't hesitate to contact a dermatologist for more help.

The dark circles under your eyes can be annoying. The reasons might be lack of sleep, stress, or even allergies. However, rubbing your eyes a lot can also be the reason. Try sleep management, stress management, and not rubbing your eyes for a while. You can use cold compresses or eye cream as well.

I got hurt from a plastic chair and a small piece of my skin came off near my foot..It started bleeding but i didn't notice ..when i saw the wound the blood was already dried up so i cleaned it with water and didn't apply anything on it.. It's been 5 days since the injury and the wound is not healing..i applied some antiseptic cream on it later..it just hurts around that area and some kind of transparent liquid comes out occasionally.. what to do

The transparent liquid you see coming out is likely pus, a sign of infection. Try cleaning the wound daily with mild soap and warm water, then apply an antibiotic ointment. Keep it covered with a bandage to protect it. If it doesn't improve in a couple of days or if you notice increasing redness, swelling, or warmth around the wound, it's best to seek medical help.

You may have a condition named acanthosis nigricans. It can bring about thick, dark, smelly skin in places such as the underarms, and neck. Scratching is another symptom that is often associated with this condition. Acanthosis nigricans is related to the fact that one is overweight or has diabetes. Adopting a healthier lifestyle is necessary to eat a well-balanced diet and exercise can help improve this condition.

Can I Get Rabies From Dog Scratch No Cuts?

Our dog accidently scratch my hands with his teeth but there is no cuts, bleeding or wounds can i get rabies?

1 Answer
Dr. Ishmeet Kaur

Dr. Ishmeet Kaur

Answered on 5th Sept '24

If a dog of yours scratches or nips at you and you don't see any signs of bleeding, cuts, or wounds, the risk of rabies is among the lowest. Rabies is mostly an infection through saliva, hence, when there is no open wound, the chances are minimal. Watch out for any strange signs such as a fever, headache, or tingling in the area near the scratch. In the event, you spot something peculiar, it's best to get checked out by a doctor anyway. But for now, you should be just fine. Rinse the wound under running water and lather it with soap to disinfect it.

It’s common to get gray hair early, especially if it started in your teenage years. This can be due to genetics, stress, or diet. While it might seem worrying, gray hair usually isn't a sign of a serious health problem. You can choose to use hair dye or embrace your natural look. Remember to eat a balanced diet, manage stress, and take good care of your hair.
