Infection after shaving i think as ingrown hairs turned into boils that have puss in them how can I treat this at home
Cosmetologist
Answered on 23rd May '24
If ingrown hair has turned into painful boils with pus, try cleaning the area gently with warm water and soap. Apply warm compresses and avoid picking at the boils. Using over the counter antibiotics and wearing loose clothing can help. Maintain good hygiene and consider pain relief if needed. However, if the situation doesn't improve, worsens, or spreads, consult a dermatologist for proper treatment.

I am 8 year old and have some kind of pimples on my elbow. First it was only on one hand but now it is increasing on the other hand also.

You may have a skin disease known as eczema. Eczema is a skin condition that develops itchy red lumps on the affected area. This case is common in children of your age. The reasons could be the problems of dry skin and allergic reactions. Use moisturizing lotion to keep your skin soft and stop it from itching. Sometimes the physician might prescribe a specific cream to help you with the itch.

Skin atrophy is the thinning of the skin and it can happen for different reasons like aging, steroid abuse, or some medical conditions. Skin atrophy is the major issue and it is necessary to use gentle lotions and creams to keep your skin moisturized to solve it. Refrain from harsh chemicals and cover your skin from the sun. Eating a balanced meal full of vitamins and minerals can also help your skin. Always bear in mind that the major reason for taking good care of the skin is for the overall well-being of the body.

I am 19 years old female and I have these painful oozing wounds on the back of my head near my hairline. They are tender to the touch and accompanied by a lump on the back of my neck. I’m not sure what to do.
Female | 19
You may be suffering from a scalp abscess, which occurs when bacteria become trapped under the skin, causing an infection. Painful draining sores and a lump on the neck are common symptoms. A dermatologist should be consulted for appropriate treatment even if warm compresses help.

I'm almost 18 year old female. I have dust allergy and I have freckles type and some spots on my left Cheeks and day by day my face condition is going worst its like pimple type I don't know what is it I have taken treatment from a lot of places but nothing worked and dady by day my skin colour is also becoming dull.
Female | 18
The spots and pimples on your left cheek might be caused by dust irritation, which can also lead to dull skin. Make sure to clean your face regularly and avoid covering it for long periods. Also, try not to touch your face with your hands, as they may carry bacteria. Washing your face should be a regular habit. If the problem persists, consult a dermatologist.

I have green at top of my nail and redness I put sudocream on it to see if it helps as I have no other cream atm will it help I’ve put plater on it as well
Female | 18
Your fingernail infection is likely. The bacteria may be causing the green hue. The inflammation can result in swelling and pain. Sudocream may not be effective in treating the infection. Use a plaster to cover the spot for protection. Gently wash the area with warm water, apply antibiotic ointment, and cover it up. If things get worse, see a dermatologist.

If it is a simple boil then treating with the topical antibiotics cream like Neosporin daily for 5 days will heal it. If it doesn't get cured consult local dermatologist near you

I’m having redness on my penis and trying to see wat it is
Male | 26
The reason could be a skin condition known as balanitis, which frequently causes red spots, itchy skin, and swelling around the genital area. It may be due to negligence in personal hygiene, irritation from soaps, and in some cases, a yeast infection. Always make sure to use only plain water for washing and avoid using strong soaps. If the redness remains the same or worsens, it's better to visit a dermatologist for some more advice and treatment.

I am a male 17 year old almost I suddenly was showering and checked a bump when I was checking groin area lower abdomen left side and upper part of groin area I found something that is 1 cm and I can feel it? And I checked on other side but it was very small I can feel it but not as outer side as on left side is this inguinal lymph node? Or something serious I am very tensed feeling so scared what is it , I also had ultrasound a month ago of whole abdomen I don't think it was found or seen it that because it's in lower abdomen
Male | 17
The lump you are sensing in your groin region might be an engorged inguinal lymph node. Lymph nodes can get bigger due to different reasons like a cold or a sore. Most of the time, they return to their normal size without any intervention. Mind it, if the situation gets worse, you might experience pain and other signs like fever, do visit a dermatologist.

Male | 18
You have been suffering from an intense heat all over your body for a month. This could be due to dry skin, insect bites, or an allergic reaction. Use a soft and gentle soap and moisturizing lotion, and avoid scratching. If the itching continues, you might want to seek out a dermatologist for advice.

Female | 25
As per your symptoms it would appear that you are suffering from acne vulgaris. This condition may also lead to pimples, acne and dryness on the face. This may also be associated with the dandruff and hair fall. I suggest that you consult a dermatologist who will offer the right diagnosis and treatment protocol.

This can happen from things such as stress, poor diet, or using harsh hair products. To grow your hair and make it silky again, try eating a well-rounded diet full of fruits and vegetables along with drinking plenty of water. Also, use gentle sulfate-free shampoos, conditioners, and other styling products on your locks.

I'm 17 years old and having acne and pimple on face. I want to get rid of it. I need any cream for this case
Male | 17
Dealing with pimples and acne can be frustrating, but it's normal for your age. These skin issues happen when hair follicles get clogged with sebum and dead skin cells, leading to red bumps, whiteheads, or blackheads. Try using an over-the-counter acne cream with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to help clear them up. Wash your face regularly and avoid scrubbing too hard. Also, avoid touching your face, as it can make things worse. Eating a nutritious diet and drinking plenty of water will help keep your skin healthy.

Which treatment is best for vitiligo in children below 5 years, homeopathy, ayurveda, or allopathy? What treatment is given to kids for focal vitiligo above lips?
Male | 3
The best treatment for vitiligo in children below 5 years old would depend on the severity of the condition. Generally, topical corticosteroids are the most commonly used treatment for vitiligo in children, and they are used in combination with other treatments like phototherapy, topical calcineurin inhibitors, and systemic immunomodulators. For focal vitiligo above the lips, the treatment of choice is usually topical corticosteroids. Additionally, topical immunomodulators and phototherapy can be used in combination with topical corticosteroids to improve the effectiveness of the treatment. Homeopathy, ayurveda, and other alternative treatments can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, but should be discussed with a doctor before starting.

The skin discoloration could be from irritation or pigmentation issues, while the acne is likely caused by clogged pores and bacteria. To manage both, keep the area clean, wear loose clothing, and avoid harsh products. If it doesn’t improve, see a dermatologist for specific advice.

A mouth infection, it seems, troubled you months ago. Many causes exist for mouth infections: poor cleaning of teeth and gums, cuts inside the mouth, or a weak immune system. Pain, swelling, redness, even pus - these symptoms might appear. To treat the infection, some steps: rinse with saltwater, brush, and floss diligently, and see a dermatologist for antibiotics if severe. Mouth infections, while unpleasant, can improve with proper care.
