Allergy can happen when we come in contact with things like certain foods, plants, or animals. Sometimes, this is how our body reacts to things like food, plants, or animals. Take an over-the-counter antihistamine for the time being. Don't scratch the area to prevent a possible infection. If the symptoms either last for a long time or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

Can i get hpv from sharing clothes , towels or my personal items or objects from someone who has genital warts ?
Male | 32
Genital warts are caused by a virus known as HPV. It is impossible to be infected with HPV through the sharing of clothes, towels, or objects of personal hygiene. The most common way for HPV to spread is through skin-to-skin contact, usually during sexual activity. The general symptoms of genital warts are the presence of small, flesh-colored bumps in the genital area. In case you happen to be concerned about HPV then the best thing to do is to talk to a healthcare provider about preventing and treating it.

Hi. I've a question regarding my niece's skin problem. She is a 7-years old. She has developed red patches of skin on her cheek, chin and around nose. The affected area of her cheek is very dry. I brought her to a doctor who prescribed two creams, mezoderm(betamethasone) and gentamicin-akos which made things far worse. Then at the pharmacy I was advised to use ftorokart(also a cream with triamcinolone) for my niece's face. After a few uses of the cream, I've seen some noticeable improvement in her skin condition since she started to use it. It took the redness out of her nose. But she still has rash and blisters on her face. I took photos of her face in case it might be helpful for you to identify the reason for her skin condition. Here are the photos of hers: https://ibb.co/q9t8bSL https://ibb.co/Q8rqcr1 https://ibb.co/JppswZw https://ibb.co/Hd9LPkZ Would you mind helping us to identify what caused this skin condition?

According to the symptoms and signs described, it appears to be a case of atopic dermatitis which is common among children of the mentioned age. It is a condition where the skin barrier is disturbed and is extremely sensitive to external environmental triggers like cold and dry weather, dust etc. It presents as red dry itchy patches on cheeks, hands and legs sometimes whole body. The above mentioned creams contain topical corticosteroids which are to be used with a great caution under the supervision of Dermatologist. Good barrier repairing creams including emollients with squalene, ceramides etc can help reviving the skin barrier. Steroid sparing drugs can be prescribed to manage the rash. Please consult a qualified Dermatologist and do not use topical corticosteroids without doctor’s advice as it may cause many adverse effects.

My name Is Shivani Verma . I am 20 years old . I have been suffering from acne marks and acne for many years now.
Female | 20
Acne marks and acne are worrisome but you are not the only one going through it. Acne occurs when the hair follicles get blocked with oil and dead skin cells. The result of this may be pimples, blackheads, or scars. Here are some steps to help yourself: use a soft cleanser to wash it only twice a day. Opt for non-comedogenic (products that don't block pores) skin care products and avoid the temptation to pop or pick pimples. If the problem persists, the best course is to make an appointment with a dermatologist who will evaluate your incoming visit.

So i was punctured by a small metal and i washed and disinfected it i also got my tetanus shot last year what should i do?
Male | 16
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 there a chance to be caught by Hiv if someone's diabetes needle pricked my hand
Female | 19
The likelihood of HIV infection is negligible if a diabetic needle pricks your hand. HIV is transferred via blood, however, the needle prick is not a high-risk exposure. If you are concerned, watch out for symptoms such as flu, fever, or rash. If you see them, go to a doctor.

I have been feeling pain in both of my breast especially armpits what could it be it ha happened for weeks now , I have no lumps
Female | 20
This type of pain, darling, can occasionally be a result of hormonal variations, like during your menstrual cycle. It could also be wearing too tight clothes or even a sign of muscle strain. In order to treat the pain, you can wear loose clothes, use warm compresses and gentle massage.

I am a 16 year old male with no history of skin cancer . Recently noticed a mole on the sole of the feet and removed it with blade . Now I am scared what will I do?
Male | 16
It is essential to watch for any alterations in your skin moles as these may be an indication of skin cancer. In that situation, the mole removal using a blade may have cut out the cancer cells, but still, it is preferable to go to your dermatologist for a thorough examination.

Iam 28years old female Iam having small bumps in bikini area I want it to be treated
Female | 28
It looks like ingrown hairs in your bikini area might be what you are possibly struggling with. These little bumps occur when hair doubles back into the skin rather than growing out. They sometimes lead to redness, itching, or even pain. To assist in healing this, softly scrub the area, shun tight clothes, and think about warm compresses. If the problem persists, visit a dermatologist.

Anus haemorrhoids not bleeding only itching
Female | 30
Hemorrhoids cause itchiness. They're puffy veins close to the rectum. Along with itching, a pain or bulge may form there. Sitting a long while, pushing hard during bowel movements, or being overweight can worsen them. For itching relief, use soft wipes, take warm baths, don't scratch. Always keep that area tidy and arid.

Female | 26
You've noticed chin hair and swelling in the morning, plus weight gain for 2 months. These could signal hormone changes, thyroid issues or fluid buildup. Seeing a dermatologist is crucial - they'll check symptoms, order tests if needed, and advise treatment so you feel better soon.

I have fungal infection in my hands and thighs. It is not getting cured even after a lot of treatment.
Male | 19
Fungal infection which is not easy to cure, has found a place on your hands and thighs. Fungal infections are caused by the skin being warm and moist, like when we sweat a lot, can occur. The primary way to get rid of it is to maintain the cleanliness and dryness of the affected areas. Antifungal creams or powders that a dermatologist recommends can also be helpful. Don't forget to wear loose and breathable clothes.

Hi my name is farhin begum.i am from india.i have acne scars on my face since 1yr.i was very tense about those scars.please suggest me any cream.i hav gone through so many dermatologist they suggest me for laser treatment bt i dont want to go through that procedure..
Female | 21
Worrying over acne scars is common, yet solutions exist. Scars form when skin sustains damage during breakouts. Creams with retinoids or vitamin C can gradually fade scars. Consistency is key; visible improvement takes weeks. Clean, moisturized skin is crucial too. Before starting any new treatment, consulting a dermatologist is wise to ensure the safety of your complexion.

Female | 21
New scratches have added to old ones recently, so it's important to watch for signs of infection like redness, swelling, or pus. Clean the wound with soap and water, and monitor it closely. If you notice any of these symptoms, see a doctor right away.

I am 17 years old My new is kapil I have pimple on my chest and back what should I do I very pain full and itching
Male | 17
The pimples on your skin grow when the oil glands get blocked. Your first step in resolving this issue is keeping good personal hygiene by showering daily and using the right soap to suit your skin. One thing to avoid is the temptation to pick or scratch the pimples since it will cause them to persist rather than heal. On the other hand, wearing roomy clothing will let your skin breathe, hence you will not have the problem. For the people out there who need them the most, they likely don't even feel comfortable asking you for that so the effect would be squandered. If these steps don't work, visit a dermatologist.

Female | 18
It is not unusual for the untreated cut marks to turn into scars. Maybe the diluted glycerine solution will not be sufficient to help. You can consider adding some aloe vera gel to speed up the healing. Ensure the cut area is cleansed and well moisturized to let nature do the rest of the healing.

It's been a month for me Sore throat and yellow and white blisters on the inner wall of the throat What causes it It only hurts a little while swallowing and it feels like there is something on the inner wall of the throat
Male | 25
You may be suffering from a disease called pharyngitis. It is a high-sounding word that refers to the inflammation of your throat. An infection probably causes yellow and white blisters. This may be caused by either a virus or a bacterium. On the bright side, most cases of pharyngitis tend to be cured independently. Keep drinking a lot of fluids, resting, and gargling with warm salt water to help the pain. If it doesn't get any better after a couple of days, it's a good idea to see a dermatologist for a check-up.

Male | 18
The patch of white-red color on your penis shaft could be a condition called lichen sclerosus. The symptoms can include discoloration and thinning of the skin. It's essential to visit a dermatologist for a proper diagnosis. Prescribed creams are usually given to get the symptoms relieved.
