Can I get HIV from using friend's derma roller?

I am a 18 year old male. I used my friends derma roller . And now I am anxious if I can get hiv from it although he doesn't have hiv. The roller was disinfected before I used it with spray alcohol.

It is safe to use a friend's derma roller after disinfection if it has been sprayed with alcohol. HIV is a sexual infection; sharing needles is one of the transmitter. A sterilized roller is thus no cause of fear or stress if someone else has got HIV. Such sterilized tools do not risk transmitting HIV.

Hi doctor my is a diabetic patient she has developed a would in her leg we treated with some tablets but still it's not healed properly please suggest

Female | 59

This could come as a result of high blood sugar, poor blood circulation, or infection. Redness, warmth, swelling, and pus are the signs of infection. In some cases, scars must be treated with special dressings or antibiotics. Help her to control her blood sugar levels and make sure she gets her wound care from her doctor.

Our Child Was Handling Rabbits As His Pet, Due to Which He's Got Rashes Everywhere And Itching.

Male | 10

You need to visit dermatologist immediately if your child is experiencing rashes and itching due to handling pets. Depending on the severity of the reaction, the doctor may prescribe an anti-itch cream or an oral medication. By that time keep the area clean and dry. avoid touching the rabbits until the rash has cleared. Ensure that the rabbits are healthy and free of any parasites or other conditions that could have caused the reaction. Use gloves in the future when handling them.

I was bitten by a tick a week ago. I got it out s day later when i noticed it but couldn't get its head out. Its starting to itch and looks like a slight rash. Should i be worried or will it go away on it's own?

Female | 35

When ticks bite, it can cause itching, rash, and redness on the skin. If the tick’s head remains in your body, it may result in an infection. To alleviate this, wash the affected area with soap and water then apply an anti-itch cream. Watch out for any signs of infection like increased redness or pain; should you notice any seek medical attention immediately.

You need to send face pictures. As per the dermatologist in Navi Mumbai, this is scarring, which is after effect of Acne. The best treatment for this is Laser treatment. 

You can also visit a dermatologist in Pune or any other place near to you for treatment. Hope this answer helps you.

If you have phimosis symptoms, make sure to contact a healthcare specialist. Although skin stretching exercises may be beneficial for some cases, they have the potential to cause further harm if performed incorrectly. One should consult a Doctor to receive proper diagnosis and treatment.

According to your symptoms, it is melasma that you might have. It is common during pregnancy as dark marks are forming on the face, especially on the nose and cheeks. It is recommended to visit a dermatologist who can accurately identify and treat your condition

I'm having big stretch marks on body.

Female | 20

Stretch marks are common and appear when the skin is stretched significantly. They can be purple, red, or silver, depending on how long they’ve been there. Causes include rapid growth, weight changes, and pregnancy. Solutions include using moisturizers, and creams, and maintaining a healthy weight. While they usually fade over time, they may not completely disappear.
