How to remove underarm hair without painful bumps?

It sounds like you might be experiencing ingrown hairs after shaving your underarms. When hair curls back or grows sideways into the skin instead of upward, it can cause those painful bumps. Well, to help ease the discomfort, you can try warm compresses to soothe the area and prevent infection. Avoid shaving until it heals, and when you do shave again, make sure to use a clean razor and shave in the direction of hair growth. If the pain persists or if you notice any signs of infection, it's best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Hand palm allergy causing cuts and irritation could be due to contact dermatitis, where your skin reacts to something it's touched.

You might also want to avoid the substance that triggered the reaction. If it doesn't improve or gets worse, it's best to see a dermatologist for further evaluation and possibly allergy testing.

How can I permanently remove lice from my hair?

It sounds like you’re facing a challenging situation with persistent lice and eggs, which can lead to itching and discomfort. Lice are tiny insects that thrive on the scalp and can cause irritation. Over-the-counter treatments, such as medicated shampoos containing permethrin or pyrethrin, can be effective. Applying them thoroughly and following instructions is essential. You might also consider a professional evaluation to ensure proper identification and treatment. Additionally, regularly wash bedding and hair accessories in hot water to eliminate any remaining lice and eggs. Don’t hesitate to consult a dermatologist for personalized guidance to find a long-lasting solution.

Why won't this hard cheek pimple go away?

A hard pimple that doesn't go away could be a sebaceous cyst or even a small benign growth like a fibroma. These can sometimes stick around without causing much trouble. However, it's always a good idea to get it checked out by a dermatologist just to be sure. They can offer the best advice on whether it needs any treatment or if it's safe to leave it be. So, the next step would be to schedule an appointment with a skin specialist for a proper evaluation.

Can dark and scaly marks on the penis be from masturbation?

It seems that what you are going through may likely be hyperpigmentation from inflammation. This could be caused by constant rubbing during the time you are masturbating which can result in rough, scaly skin that will be red or pink in color. Keeping the area clean, protected, and well moisturized is important. Using a mild, scentless moisturizer is a great way to start. Whether the symptoms persist or get more severe, it's worth making an appointment with a dermatologist so they can give you proper advice.

What is the best genital warts treatment option for me?

Genital warts are caused by a virus that is known as HPV. You may see very small wart lumps in the genital area. Treatment modalities can be in the form of topical creams, freezing the warts off, or other procedures. It is prudent to deal with them to stop them from being transmitted and to minimize your chances of developing certain types of cancers. Do not feel embarrassed, and consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

Why won't my hand infection heal?

Skin infections can lead to swelling, redness, and sometimes even to the appearance of bubbles or blisters. This is the result of bacteria getting into the skin via a cut or wound, for example, a bite. The most important thing you can do is to visit a dermatologist and get the right treatment. They can prescribe you some antibiotics and give you ointments that can assist you in getting rid of the infection. To ensure that the area heals faster, it is important to keep it clean and dry.

Is my child's painful swelling near ear serious?

There are a few reasons why this swelling could be happening. One common cause is an infection, like an ear infection or even a skin infection. Sometimes, insect bites or even an allergic reaction can lead to swelling in that area. It's essential to have it checked out by a doctor to determine the exact cause. In the meantime, you can apply a warm compress to help with the pain and swelling. I recommend making an appointment with your pediatrician as soon as you can so they can provide the appropriate treatment.

How can I remove unwanted facial hair effectively?

It seems that you may have a condition called hirsutism, which means women develop hair in areas where men normally do. Hormonal imbalances, genetics, or polycystic ovary syndrome could be responsible for this. To solve the problem, consult with a dermatologist who can suggest treatments such as drugs to regulate hormones or laser hair removal.
