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.

I am a 19 year old female. I have had a red patch on the inside of my upper lip for around 4 and a half weeks that hasn’t gone. Sometimes it’s painful, and it regularly tastes metallic. I’m not sure what this is or how to treat it

Female | 19

You may be dealing with a condition called oral lichen planus, which can cause painful red spots in your mouth that taste metallic. Don't worry, it's not contagious. The exact cause is unknown, it might be linked to the immune system. To ease the discomfort, avoid hot or sour foods and use mild mouth rinses while keeping your mouth clean. If these tips don't help or your symptoms worsen, make an appointment with a dermatologist to get a proper diagnosis and discuss further treatment options.

Female | 18

Skin can get itchy and small bumps may appear. This could be eczema. A cold might trigger these issues. The cough and blood smell from your throat relate to being sick. Moisturize skin to ease itching and bumps. Don't scratch. Drink lots of fluids. If problems persist, visit a dermatologist. They can diagnose your condition and develop a treatment plan.

I am a 20 year old female that had a cold sore on my lip a few months ago. The actual scab is gone, but there is still a sharp pain in that spot when I touched it. Is it still contagious and how can I stop it? I’ve been putting Abreva and Carmex on the spot that hurts but nothing seems to help. Thank you

Female | 20

The nerve near your previous sore could be causing your current pain. Cold sores are contagious until fully healed, but once the scab is gone, the risk is usually over. You can apply a cold compress or take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Avoid touching or picking at the sore to prevent irritation. If the pain persists or worsens, it's best to consult a dermatologist.

Can hair loss at crown be treated effectively?

Male | 29

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.

Can I use soframycin ointment on my nose piercing

Female | 17

Nose piercings sometimes get infected. Redness, swelling, pus appear when germs enter. Soframycin ointment doesn't treat piercing infections. Saline solution (saltwater) gently cleans the area. Rinse piercing multiple times daily. If symptoms persist beyond several days, consult a doctor. Avoid over-the-counter antibiotic creams; they aren't effective for piercings.

There are many reasons why your skin may appear older than you’d like. Some of the most common include excessive sun exposure, smoking, and dehydration. Additionally, stress and genetics can also contribute to this issue. To improve the condition of your skin, it is advisable to apply sunscreen every day, drink plenty of water, eat a balanced diet, and quit smoking.

i am 18 years old and i had small ball like structure in penis shaft for 3 years and it still not going away. I once goes for checkup but doctor says it normal and it will remove within weeks or months but its 3 years now

Male | 18

It looks like you’ve got penile papules. These are small, harmless bumps that commonly appear on the shaft of the penis. They might be white, pinkish or the color of your skin, and they don’t come from infections or bad hygiene. If the bumps start hurting or itching or anything else about them changes, it’s best to go see a dermatologist.

Breasts changing color and feeling more sensitive is common. This could happen due to hormones, irritated skin, or blood flow changes. Look for other issues like pain or lumps too. If changes last or worry you, talk to a doctor for a checkup.

Hair loss among teenagers can be caused by different factors such as stress, bad nutrition, or some medical conditions. Do you detect more hair than usual lying on the pillow or in the shower?

Hydroquinone for skin lightening

Male | 18

Let me give you the lowdown on hydroquinone: it’s a common ingredient found in skin lightening products. This is because it works by reducing melanin in the skin. So if you have dark spots such as age or sun spots, using hydroquinone could help fade them away. However, don’t forget that you must be cautious not to misuse it since this can cause some undesired effects. As a rule, always follow directions given by the manufacturer when using any cosmetic product and also watch out for any allergic reactions.
