Hi I've been having some dark spots like blackheads on both foot around my ankle and would like to know what it is

Female | 27

Ankle spots could result from calluses or corns. These develop from repeated friction, say rough footwear. While mostly harmless, they can feel uncomfortable. Maintaining clean, moisturized feet helps. Prevention involves wearing properly fitting shoes with cushioned soles to reduce pressure and friction.

I am almost 14,I burned myself with hot oil,now there are red dots on my arm.maybe 2nd degree burns

Male | 13

The spots on your arm that turn red indicate inflammation caused by the hot oil and can be a sign of a burn. Second-degree burns are usually characterized by red skin, swelling, and blistering. It’s best to start off doing this by cooling the area down with lukewarm water for a good 10-15 minutes then wash it gently with a mild soap. Use a clean dressing to protect the skin. Be sure to watch for a rise in redness or the appearance of pus, which are indicators of infection. If you are enduring acute pain or the symptoms worsen, then be sure to visit a dermatologist for comprehensive care and treatment.

I have a tiny small small dot like Black head on my nose tip this got remove whenever i squeeze that with my finger how can i remove my all black dot on my nose tip

Male | 23

We do not recommend that you try to manually remove black dots on the rhinion by squeezing or picking them as it can cause scarring, infection, and even further damage to the nose. These black dots are blackheads that result from the formation of black plugs in the pores. A dermatologist is the right person in the healthcare sector to the diagnosis and treatment of this condition.

I'm 20 years old female, Im having mouth ucers on and off. What could be the issue? Can I use omeprazole tablets for this?

Female | 20

Stress, neglecting oral hygiene, and certain foods can cause mouth ulcers. Usually, Omeprazole tablets are not used for the treatment of mouth ulcers as they mainly aid with stomach issues. For the treatment of ulcers, you can use over-the-counter remedies such as oral gels or rinses to reduce the pain and facilitate the healing process. Do not forget to maintain a proper dental hygiene routine and a balanced diet to keep them from returning.

About my thumb in my thumb nail is not growing and 2 lines are there

Female | 17

The lack of growth and the presence of lines can occur due to several factors, such as stress, nutritional deficiencies, or trauma to the area. Often, these issues are temporary and resolve on their own. However, it’s essential to ensure you’re getting proper nutrients and managing stress effectively. If the condition persists or worsens, I recommend consulting a gynecologist for a thorough evaluation and personalized advice. They can provide insights and solutions tailored to your specific needs.

Hiii im a 19yo female. I recently shared a drink and a cigarette with a guy i just found out has herpes. He didnt have any sores on his mouth so im wondering if is possible to catch oral herpes by those contacts? Thank u in advance

Female | 19

Oral herpes can be spread through sharing drinks or cigarettes, even when no sores are visible. Symptoms might include tingling, itching, or blisters on or around the lips. There is no cure for herpes; however, antiviral drugs can help control outbreaks. Don't forget to follow safe practices to protect yourself from such infections in the future.

I have lots of active acne and acne marks all over on my face . If one gets better then another is coming. Also face is getting darker than my actual skin tobe and looks very dull .How to get rid of those problems

Female | 26

The skin issue you're experiencing is likely acne, a common skin condition. Acne happens when hair follicles get clogged due to extra oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. This can lead to pimples, blackheads, or acne scars, and may also cause dark spots due to inflammation.

To improve your skincare routine, start with a gentle cleanser. Avoid touching your face often and try products with ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. Also, try to limit sun exposure. If you need more help, visit a dermatologist.

Iam 36 years old I have oily skin with open pores I need some moisturizer for.my skin to.look fresh kindly suggest

Female | 36

You need a non-comedogenic moisturiser which doesn’t cause any breakout or add to the oily state of the skin. Squalene, ceramide containing moisturisers which do not block the pores are recommended for oily skin. Please consult a dermatologist for thorough analysis of your skin to get a customised prescription suitable for your skin. Each one has a unique skin and has to use best suitable products to maintain a healthy skin. Open pores can be reduced by using retinol containing creams at bedtime. If they are severe procedural treatments like laser toning, micro needling radio frequency can help.

Ear helix injury , change in shape kind of cut but no pain and bleeding

Male | 19

A change in the shape of your ear's helix following an injury, particularly without pain or bleeding, is often minor. Such injuries can result from trauma, exposure to cold, or pressure. While it’s reassuring that you aren’t in discomfort, careful monitoring is key. Keep the area clean and consider applying a gentle antiseptic to prevent infection. If you notice any signs of swelling, redness, or prolonged changes in appearance, it's wise to consult a dermatologist. They can provide a thorough assessment and recommend the best course of action to ensure proper healing.

I have pain in my body where veins are more visible especially in joints like pricking with pin

Female | 17

You may be experiencing the pain and visibility of veins in your joints as if they are being pricked with a needle. This can happen because of the inflammation of the joints or the tissues surrounding them. It may be connected with diseases such as arthritis. The best thing to do is to rest the joint, put ice on it, and take over-the-counter pain relievers. Gentle stretching exercises can also be beneficial. If the pain persists, it's a good idea to schedule a visit with a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

I am facing acne problem on my face as well as they are leaving marks on face.

Female | 28

Acne is a skin condition characterized by red pimples or “zits”. These occur when hair follicles are clogged with oil and dead skin cells. The swollen and tender pimples may or may not have pus. Mild washing of the face with a gentle cleanser is recommended. Over-the-counter acne treatment creams or gels can help address the issue, too. A dermatologist can offer more advice on dealing with such skin problems if they are a source of concern for you.
