Recurring boils can be cured by maintaining it with proper hygiene. Warm compresses may be used to alleviate the pain and aid in drainage. But if the boils keep coming back, it is recommended that one should visit a dermatologist who can provide antibiotics or other medications to treat them.

My dad is 54 year old and have the starting stage of herpes zoster we have used ointment cream for couple of days but haven't got relief. What should we do now ?

Male | 54

Herpes zoster, also known as shingles, is caused by the same virus as chickenpox. It can lead to a rash, blisters, and pain. Since the ointment hasn't been effective, I recommend your dad see a dermatologist for further evaluation and possibly a prescription to help with the pain and healing.

I have itching akin on my shoulder and back that becomes dark and its for many years. Itching has started last 10 days before

Male | 50

Itching on your shoulder and back for so many years, and it's gotten darker recently. Itching can have various causes, like dry skin, allergies, or even a skin condition called eczema. The recent change in color could be due to increased scratching or inflammation. It's essential to have it checked by a dermatologist to rule out any serious concerns. In the meantime, try using a gentle moisturizer and avoid scratching to prevent further darkening.

I have a pimple on my lower side of cheeks it's not painful and it is hard and is not going from last half year

Female | 18+

A hard pimple that doesn't go away could be a sebaceous cyst or even a small benign growth like a fibroma. These can sometimes stick around without causing much trouble. However, it's always a good idea to get it checked out by a dermatologist just to be sure. They can offer the best advice on whether it needs any treatment or if it's safe to leave it be. So, the next step would be to schedule an appointment with a skin specialist for a proper evaluation.

So i noticed brown spots on my neck up behind my ear by my hair line what can that be

Female | 30

Potentially, the brown spots you have behind your ear and the hairline might be due to a condition known as seborrheic keratosis. These spots are generally harmless and may come as you age. They don't contain any elements of contagion or cancer. If it damages or bothers you a dermatologist can pop them. Keep conducting thorough skin protection against sun rays to stop more spots appearing on your skin.

Hi , i’m a 24 year old arab woman i have fair skin and i have keratosis pilaris so i wanted to get rif of them by getting co2 laser on my whole arm??‍♀️ Well i did a really strong dosage that led to an infection on the burned skin And later on it turned to hyperpigmentation that j cant get rid of , also i have these weird red splotches on the burned skin that reaper randomly What do you recommend ?

Female | 24

The CO2 laser procedure was intense. This led to infection and dark spots. The red patches might be because your skin is healing. To help with dark spots, you can try gentle products. Like serums with vitamin C or niacinamide. Remember to protect from the sun too. If red patches remain or get worse, see a dermatologist.

Female | 16

A troublesome ear infection is what you're saying. The pus and clear goop coming out, the hard lumps, and the pain, are examples of a serious issue. The infection could have gone into your ear cartilage and therefore caused the swelling and rawness. A visit to a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis is a must as some antibiotics may be prescribed to kill the infection and prevent further complications.

Mera skin oily aur wrinkles hai kya kon sa medicine use kare please guide

Male | 28

It’s crucial to treat a combination of oily and wrinkled skin with great attention. Your skin turning oily can lead to blocked pores and acne. Wrinkles can be formed from aging and your skin receiving too much sunlight. Cleansing your oily skin can be aided by using a mild cleanser and an oil-free moisturizer. For wrinkles, contemplate using products that have both retinol and hyaluronic acid. Protect your skin by putting on sunscreen when the sun is out.

I am a 17 year male .. i am having a infection below my lips ... it is very disturbing and so many spots are there in my face

Male | 17

It is apparent that you might have an infection because there might be bacteria or irritation, or the reason may even be viral. The symptoms like spots and feelings of unease can be discomforting, but most of the time these are dismissed as false concerns. It is crucial to keep the area clean and not to pick at the spots. Over-the-counter topical treatments might work; however, I suggest you talk to a Dermatologist first for a more accurate diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.

On my penis small red rash and itching And upper body also effected

Male | 32

This could be a case of dermatitis which is a skin condition caused by such things as allergies, irritants, or infections. To make this disease go away, try not to get in contact with any irritant, wear loose clothes as well as the right detergent, and apply mild soap. The use of a sensitive skin moisturizer can soothe your skin, as well, and be the ending part.

At night, I feel a lot of itching all over my body, especially in the private parts. There are also some white patches or small red spots in that area. The itching happens during the day too, but it becomes much worse at night, especially around the private area.

Male | 17

Itching with white patches and red spots could indicate a few things, like a fungal infection or even a skin irritation. It's good that you've noticed these symptoms, as they can help us figure out what's going on. For now, try to keep the area clean and dry, wear loose-fitting clothes, and avoid scratching to prevent any further irritation. It's best to have a chat with a gynecologist to get a proper evaluation and treatment plan.

Female | 18

Looks like it could be stomatitis, which can lead to swollen, red, itchy, or even painful lips. The reasons for this can be irritation, allergies, infections, or the lack of nutrients. Try eating bland and not acidic or spicy foods, keep drinking enough water, and think about using lip balm with calming ingredients like aloe vera or coconut oil. If the symptoms persist or worsen, visit a dermatologist.

I have this small patch like thing on my penis (on foreskin) its not painful or itchy but it looks like skin is coming of lightly on the sides of bump like dry skin

Male | 18

What you're describing sounds like it could be a common condition called balanitis, which is often due to irritation or infection. It can cause dry, flaky skin on the foreskin. Keeping the area clean and dry is essential. Avoid harsh soaps and tight clothing. Try using a mild soap and gently washing the area with warm water. If it doesn't improve or if you notice any other symptoms, it's best to see a dermatologist for a proper evaluation.

HI, I am suffering from Balanitis - Infection of Penis and Foreskin

Male | 29

Balanitis means the penis, as well as the foreskin, gets infected. It can cause the skin to become red, sore, and itchy. This situation arises due to germs such as bacteria or fungi. Appropriate hygiene can prevent this; ensure the area is clean and dry. If it's giving you grief, you might need a dermatologist to prescribe some cream to help clear it up.

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.
