Why is my genetic area red and itchy?

Patient's Query

Heavy redness genetic area and itching

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

Itching at a specific place and heavy redness in that area may be because of allergens such as pollen, for instance, skin disorders, and infections. One should make sure that the affected area is kept clean and is not exposed to any irritants. The use of over-the-counter topical creams can bring some relief of irritation, if symptoms carry on or develop negatively a must is to seek medical help. You should consult a dermatologist for proper treatment options.

Hi, I am a girl of 19 years old. My boyfriend has given me a love bite on my breast and on back. I wanted to ask if this is normal? As I am feeling a bit sick and feverish. I want to know if this is okay to feel such way? For more information, earlier when i got a love bite, it was on neck and i faced neck infection. I had neck swelling. It got okay after medications though. But I want to know if there are chances for swelling this time too? Something like this? Or will it be okay with time and nothing will happen? Please clear. Thanks

A love bite­ can cause fever and sickne­ss, it's normal. Your boyfriend's bite on the breast and back may have­ let bacteria ente­r broken skin. This causes infection - swe­lling and tenderness. Cle­an the area, use warm compre­ss, take pain meds if nee­ded. But if pus appears or symptoms worsen, ge­t medical help right away.

A red colored and long mass type thing is coming out from belly button. thick yellow discharge also came out sometimes from belly button. I have no pain, no swelling, no discomfort, nothing

Female | 24

It looks as though you burgeon an umbilical granuloma which is a small piece of tissue that protrudes from your belly button. The yellow discharge may be an indication of the infection. In some instances, it could come on without any pain or swelling. To do this, you have to keep the area clean and dry. It is also possible that you will need antibiotics when the infection gets worse.

My body wash it's paining like fire

It seems like you are facing skin burn. This might be the sign of various disorders like eczema, psoriasis or skin infection. I recommend that you go see a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment plan.

I have acne scars which topical creams are best to use

Male | 24

Topical creams having retinoids, glycolic acid, and vitamin C are quite helpful in fading away the appearance of the scars. Nevertheless, you need to confer with a dermatologist if you are going to opt for a skin cream and the specialist can guide you with a better treatment plan that is unique to your type of skin and the extent of your scars.

Hello Doctor, I am a 23-year-old male and wanted to explain my situation clearly. I was treated for balanitis and completed two courses of prescribed medication, including topical creams (KETO-4S initially, later CANDIDERMA). While the main infection seemed to improve, I am still experiencing redness, raw and sensitive skin, and pain on touch. I would like to mention that due to anxiety about the condition, I may have used the steroid-based cream more frequently than advised (approximately once every two days for reassurance). I am concerned this may have affected healing. From today, I have also noticed some white discharge from the area. I have not had any sexual contact. However, last night I had a strong spontaneous erection during sleep, and this morning I noticed the white discharge afterward. I wanted to kindly ask: * Why this might be happening despite completing treatment * Whether this suggests ongoing infection, inflammation, or irritation from topical steroid use * What the appropriate next steps would be I would greatly appreciate your guidance, as I am currently unable to consult a doctor in person. Thank you very much for your time and help.
