The redness you see might be a cause of infection. It can be managed by washing the area properly with soap and water. Next, put an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment and cover it with a bandage. If the redness starts to expand, you get a fever, or if there is pus, seek medical help immediately.

I m 23 and I face a lip skin issue from past month, symptoms lips crack white patches exfoliating

Male | 23

You are suffering from lip dermatitis. The symptoms you mentioned, such as cracked lips, white patches, and skin peeling off, are the typical signs of lip dermatitis. Lip dermatitis can be the result of dry weather, periodically licking the lips, or the use of severe lip products. Use a gentle lip balm and refrain from licking the lips. Proper nutrition and protection from damaging UV radiation should be observed to prevent harmful effects on the lips. If the discomfort persists, visit a dermatologist.

I am 23 years old male having oily skin and acne for last 5years please suggest serum , moisturizer and sunscreen

Male | 23

If your skin is oily, it produces excess oil, leading to clogged pores and acne. Using a serum with salicylic acid can help unclog pores, while a moisturizer with minimal cranberry oil can prevent acne growth. Applying sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher will protect your skin from the sun. These products are recommended for managing oily skin issues. You can also visit a dermatologist for personalized recommendations.

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.

Im affected by Psoriasis Please advise to cure the problem..... If it possible to cure completed or controlled

Male | 27

Psoriasis is a type of skin disorder that lasts for a long time. It is typically marked by red, dry patches which may itch and hurt. It has to do with an immune response that is too active, hence, the cells in the skin multiply much faster than they should. Even if there is no actual solution for it, there are methods that help keep the symptoms under control and manage them. Some of the available drugs for the treatment include ointments, phototherapy, and drugs that work throughout the body. Besides the drugs, lifestyle changes like a good diet and stress control are beneficial as well. I advise you to find a dermatologist who can assist you in developing a personalized plan through the evaluation of your needs.

Hi, is it ok to stop clarithromycin after 6 days of taking it? twice a day 500mg , and nothing improved, I was told to take it for 10 days.

Female | 39

If you have been on clarithromycin for six days and still do not feel any better, it is essential to continue your treatment plan. Typically, bacterial infections require the use of an entire course of antibiotics to eliminate the germs. Early stopping can result in the infection coming back stronger. Give it some more time and keep taking the medication as prescribed to help your body heal. If you're still not seeing any improvements after the full 10 days, it might be a good idea to talk to your dermatologist to discuss the next steps.

I have had a reaction to the depo injection breaking out in spots in my hair side of face and neck and chest never had this before Been on and off the depo for ages

Female | 36

Such reactions can occur, including localized spots due to hormonal shifts. These adjustments might lead to variations in skin sensitivity or breakouts, particularly in the areas you mentioned. To manage this, keeping the affected skin clean and using a gentle moisturizer can be beneficial. If symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend reaching out to a dermatologist. They can assess your situation thoroughly and discuss potential alternatives or solutions tailored to your needs.

Can I apply Tbact ointment on a wound in my hand

Female | 25

Taking care of a wound properly is important. Tbact ointment should only be used when there is an infection present. Notice signs like redness, warmth, or pus? If not, simply clean the wound using soap and water, bandaging it afterward. However, see a dermatologist if infection signs appear, for proper treatment.

I am suffering from groin itching and pubic itching with a burning sensation. I am 20 year old

Female | 20

This condition is triggered by areas such as body creases/groin, and public regions that are warm and moist, not being kept dry. It is characterized by severe itching, burning, and redness. Meanwhile, clean the area with a wet sponge and dry it, wear thin clothes, and apply an antifungal cream which you can get from the pharmacy. If it does not get better consult a dermatologist.

I'm suffering from Rashes and itching

Male | 26

Your skin has red, rough patches that itch badly. These rashes look bumpy or scaly. Itchy skin makes you want to scratch constantly. Many things cause this issue: allergies, eczema, insect bites. Fragrance-free moisturizer soothes inflamed areas. See a dermatologist if rashes worsen or don't improve.
