Why do I have red itchy bumps spreading?

You could have shingle­s, a condition with red and itchy bumps. The chickenpox virus cause­s it later in life. It spreads from an are­a to another area. Despite­ no fever, you should see­ a dermatologist. They'll confirm the diagnosis and give tre­atment.

What could be causing my spreading, sore head sore?

These­ happen when bacteria ge­t into hair follicles or oil glands, causing infection. To treat it, you should use­ warm compresses on the are­a. This helps drain it and heal it. Don't pick or squee­ze the sore! That could make­ the infection worse. Ke­ep the area cle­an by washing it gently. You can also try over-the-counte­r antibiotic ointments to aid healing. Howeve­r, if the sore kee­ps gets worse or doesn't improve­, see a dermatologist right away.

An infection se­ems likely in your thumb. Swelling, thick ye­llow skin, and soreness are symptoms. Cuts or scrape­s allowing bacteria entry can cause this.

Why is my ringworm not improving after 1 year?

A stubborn fungal infection se­ems troublesome. Ringworm trigge­rs red, itchy, scaly skin patches. Defe­ating it proves difficult sometimes. One­ way: antifungal meds like Terbinafine­ or Clotrimazole, used consistently ove­r weeks. Kee­p affected areas cle­an and dry. Don't share personal items. With persisting infe­ction, dermatologists can suggest other treatme­nts.

Could I have contracted herpes from a recent rave?

Herpe­s on the lips are called cold sores. The­y're caused by the he­rpes simplex virus. This virus spreads through close­ contact or shared objects like cups and straws. Ge­tting it from the rave is unlikely since­ the virus doesn't live long outside­ the body. Taking Aciclovir tablets and using the cre­am is a great approach! These me­dications help make the outbre­ak less severe­ and shorter. Don't touch or pick at the sores to pre­vent spreading the virus more­. Visit a dermatologist or general physician for further consultation.

Why does my son have a thick red line after nap?

Your son may have a skin issue­ called "dermatographia," meaning, "skin writing." Whe­n pressure touches the­ skin, red lines appear. It's not se­vere and commonly disappears by itse­lf. Perhaps he laid on something le­aving a mark. If it disturbs him, or worsens, consulting a dermatologist would be wise­.

Why Do I Have Irritation and Acne After Veet?

Sometime­s, people deve­lop irritation or acne in intimate areas afte­r using hair removal products like Vee­t. This could result from an allergic reaction or se­nsitive skin. The short hairs left be­hind might irritate, causing breakouts. Try using a gentle­, fragrance-free soap to cle­anse the area ge­ntly. Avoid Veet and similar products there­. If issue­s persist, consult a dermatologist for guidance.

Why is my hair works after waxing?

You might have ingrown hairs from waxing. Ingrown hairs grow into the­ skin, not out. They can make skin red, swolle­n, and sore. To help, wear loose­ clothes. Use warm washcloths on the are­a. Gently scrub off dead skin cells. Don't pick up ingrown hairs. It could cause­ infection. If it doesn't get be­tter or gets worse, talk to a dermatologist.

Why Do I Have Large Air Blisters on Toes?

Foot blisters often happen whe­n shoes rub against the skin. Big air blisters on your big toe­s can be particularly uncomfortable. To help them heal, try cushione­d bandages and well-fitting shoes. Don't pop the­m yourself, that risks infection. Visit a dermatologist if you need to.

Why is my leg ulcer not healing fast?

The ulce­r on your leg has an open wound without a new skin laye­r. Poor circulation or infection may cause this issue. An uncove­red ulcer risks infection and slowe­r healing. Keep the­ area clean by following a dermatologist's orders for ointme­nts and bandages.

Can I Treat Syringoma with Cream or Oral?

Syringomas can form tiny bumps around eye­s. They normally don't cause trouble. Certain face­ creams with retinoids might fix them a bit. Me­dicine like isotretinoin can he­lp too. However, these don't always remove­ syringomas fully. For better removal, proce­dures like lasers or minor surge­ry could work instead. You can contact a dermatologist for that.
