Can Dettol cause skin reactions near chicken pox scar?
You may have gotten sores next to the chickenpox scars on your hand. These sores might be caused by irritation or infection. Do not scratch or pop these sores because doing so can make them more infected. Clean and dry the area.

Why is my skin red and itchy?
You’re dealing with a skin problem known as eczema. Eczema can make the skin red and extremely itchy because it’s inflamed. You should use mild skin care products regularly and moisturize often to help yourself. If you need relief, try using some over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. Don’t scratch or it will get worse. In case these signs don’t go away or become worse, see a dermatologist for more help.

Is darkening body hair normal for a female?
The darkening of body hair in certain parts due to hormonal fluctuations does not mean something is wrong. This can be due to genetic and hormonal factors as well as environmental and behavioral aspects. Nevertheless, if along with dark hair you also have other symptoms like not having periods over long periods or having excessive hair growth, it is helpful to seek assistance from a dermatologist and do some tests for any irregularities.

Why Am I Suddenly Breaking Out with Acne?
It’s not strange for people to get acne as adults, so don’t worry too much if you’re affected. Hormonal changes, stress, diet or certain cosmetic applications may lead to sudden outbursts of the condition. Signs and symptoms of acne are red spots, blackheads and whiteheads. To deal with it, wash your face two times each day using a mild soap; avoid touching it too often and even consider using benzoyl peroxide/salicylic acid-containing products. If this fails consult a dermatologist.

Should I seek medical help for metal puncture?
It seems like you’ve done a good job taking care of the metal puncture wound by cleaning and sterilizing it. Because you had a tetanus injection in the past year, you are likely to be immune to tetanus. However, watch for redness, swelling, heat, or pain in the area. If any of these symptoms occur, seek medical attention.

Is a small whitehead on foreskin normal?
You described a whitehead as a clogged sebaceous gland or harmless zit. These occur from time to time when sweat and oil get trapped. Unless it hurts or grows larger there is likely nothing to worry about. Keep it clean and don’t pick at it. Talking to a dermatologist is always a good idea if it changes or you are uneasy.

Do I need to worry about ear redness, irritation, and bump?
You could have an infection if you have itching, pain, and redness. Also, the small bump you mentioned near your left eardrum might indicate this. Although infections may resolve spontaneously, you should not ignore them. Clean your ears gently and avoid putting objects into them. If the symptoms worsen or fail to go away, visit an ENT specialist.
