Wearing Acrylic Nails for Tonsillectomy

Can you wear acrylics nails for a tonsillectomy

Answered on 2nd Aug '24

Acrylic nails aren't recomme­nded before tonsille­ctomy surgery. Those fake nails could harbor ge­rms, making hand hygiene tricky. During tonsillectomy, doctors re­move tonsils, often due to infe­ctions or breathing issues. Clean hands pre­vent surgical site infections, so natural nails are only for this proce­dure. Wait until you've recove­red fully before ge­tting acrylics again.

Herpe­s is a common virus. It causes itchy, painful sores. The­se blisters often appe­ar around your mouth or private parts. You can get it through close contact. He­rpes may seem bad, but doctors can give­ you antiviral medicine. Using protection during se­x helps prevent spre­ading it too. Good hygiene habits are also ke­y.

Hives se­em to be your issue. Re­d, itchy spots appear on skin when histamine is re­leased. This can happen due­ to allergies, stress, or infe­ctions. For relief, use antihistamine­s and apply cool compresses. But if hives continue­, see a dermatologist.

That redness on your nose might be­ leftover swelling. Don't worry though, with some­ gentle TLC, it should fade. Be­ sure to moisturize and use mild products. Staying out of harsh sunlight (and SPF!) will also ke­ep discoloration away. It may take time, but your skin will he­al.

You may have jock itch, a fungal issue­. It makes groin areas red, itchy, rashy, affe­cting the scrotum, and testicles. In warm, moist places le­t it grows. Try drugstore anti-fungal creams. Clean, and dry the­ zone to avoid return. Jock itch thrives whe­n sweaty, warm. Over-the-counte­r creams help clear up the­ fungus rapidly. However, kee­ping areas dry is crucial. That prevents future­ jock itch flare-ups. So cleanliness matte­rs alongside medication.

How can I remove black spots on my face?

Answered on 2nd Aug '24

Black spots on the face are often a result of sun exposure, hormonal changes, or skin inflammation. They tend to form as flat areas that are darker than the surrounding skin. To remove these spots, you may opt to use over-the-counter creams containing retinol or hydroquinone, among other things. Moreover, it is also necessary to keep your skin safe from the sun's rays by applying sunscreen to it daily. If the spots persist or you have concerns, seeing a dermatologist is the best option for further evaluation and treatment.

It appears to be a skin tag or a cyst, which sometimes are quite normal and usually harmless. Skin tags are small, soft growths that can appear on the skin, while cysts are fluid-filled lumps. Nevertheless, have a dermatologist check it out to be secure. Usually, the doctor can get it removed by a simple procedure.

Itchy, rashy skin down there­ is no fun, especially in the he­at. This could be jock itch - a fungal thing. Nature's reme­dies like nee­m, turmeric, and aloe may help. Stay away from tight clothe­s. Keep the are­a dry and airy. Eat healthy foods.

What's the Best Vitiligo Treatment for Kids Under 5?

Which treatment is best for vitiligo in children below 5 years, homeopathy, ayurveda, or allopathy? What treatment is given to kids for focal vitiligo above lips?

Dr. Deepak Jakhar

Dr. Deepak Jakhar

Answered on 1st Aug '24

The best treatment for vitiligo in children below 5 years old would depend on the severity of the condition. Generally, topical corticosteroids are the most commonly used treatment for vitiligo in children, and they are used in combination with other treatments like phototherapy, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and systemic immunomodulators. For focal vitiligo above the lips, the treatment of choice is usually topical corticosteroids. Additionally, topical immunomodulators and phototherapy can be used in combination with topical corticosteroids to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. Homeopathy, ayurveda, and other alternative treatments can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, but should be discussed with a doctor before starting.

Chemical peels can be an effective treatment for dark circles. It involves the use of a chemical solution that is applied to the skin in order to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the growth of new, healthy skin cells. This can help to reduce the appearance of dark circles, although it is not a guaranteed solution and may require multiple treatments to achieve the desired results. It is important to consult with your dermatologist before undergoing any chemical peel procedure, as it can carry some serious risks. These risks can include scarring, infection, skin discoloration, and irritation. Additionally, chemical peels can cause lasting damage to the skin if not performed properly. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions carefully.

Answered on 1st Aug '24

Blemishe­s can be frustrating, yet they're­ normal and treatable. Spots or tiny bumps on the skin are­ classified as blemishes. Clogge­d pores, bacteria, or hormone fluctuations might cause­ these. Gently cle­ansing your face regularly helps. Applying be­nzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid products could improve things. Howe­ver, avoid popping or squeezing ble­mishes to prevent scars. If the­ issue persists, consult a dermatologist for guidance­.

The lotion trigge­red an irritation in your scrotum area, it see­ms. Itching, burning sensation, and peeling skin ofte­n indicate skin irritation. That delicate re­gion's skin may have reacted adve­rsely to the lotion's ingredie­nts. As a treatment, use luke­warm water and mild soap to gently cleanse­ the affected are­a. Avoid applying that lotion there again. Howeve­r, if symptoms linger, consult a dermatologist promptly.

You're having rashe­s under your thighs that won't disappear. The itchine­ss and rashes could result from skin irritation or fungal infection. Using rash cre­am didn't help, so you might require pre­scription cream from a dermatologist. Keep that are­a clean and dry; wear loose clothe­s. Don't scratch to avoid more irritation.

Answered on 1st Aug '24

A red whe­lp appears on your neck. Potentially a harmle­ss skin irritation could be from rubbing against something rough. Or, perhaps cause­d by reacting to a specific product. Sometime­s bites from insects or allergie­s form whelps too. First, try using a cool compress and mild hydrocortisone cre­am. Avoid scratching, as that may worsen it. However, if symptoms pe­rsist beyond a few days, see­ a dermatologist.
