Can you recommend medicine for hand and leg itching?

Patient's Query

I have itching in my hand and leg please prescribe some medicine for the same

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

Itching can be caused by various factors, including allergies, irritations, or skin conditions. It’s important to identify the root cause for effective treatment. Over-the-counter antihistamines may provide temporary relief, but they are not a substitute for professional evaluation. To soothe the affected areas, try applying a cool compress or a fragrance-free moisturizer to reduce irritation. However, if the discomfort persists or worsens, please consider scheduling a visit with a dermatologist. They can offer a precise diagnosis and appropriate treatment options tailored to your specific needs.

Dr I am suffering from acne face, my face has excess oil, Dr tell me the medicine I can take

Male | 23

Acne occurs when you have these red spots on your face caused by your skin producing too much oil. It's super common, especially during the teenage years. To help, you can use a face wash with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. These can clear up your skin by unclogging your pores.

Face pimple and itching and spot

Female | 23

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.
