Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

Fungal infections, poor hygiene, or chemical irritants can cause balanitis. To reduce symptoms, maintain cleanliness and dryness in the affected area, avoid products that may cause irritation, and use an OTC antifungal cream. If there is no improvement, seek medical attention from a dermatologist.

I am 25years old, I have been battling with dark knuckles, in fact, the more I apply knuckles cream, the more it gets worse, so recently I thought of getting Gluthatione pills and start using them so my hands and legs can be uniform again. But I am afraid it might have side effects, please help me.....I will do anything you ask me to do at this moment.

Female | 25

Consult with your doctor before you start taking any new supplement. There are several options available if you are looking for natural ways to lighten dark knuckles. You can try exfoliating the affected area with a gentle scrub, apply lemon juice, or using a product that contains natural bleaching ingredients such as aloe vera, papaya, and turmeric.

My all body itching and scar

Male | 25

You may have a skin disorder such as eczema. Eczema, a condition that causes your skin to itch and scar at the same time, could be one of the reasons. Scratching your skin at night may lead to red, swollen areas. Eczema is often triggered by allergies, stress, or harsh substances like certain soaps. Applying non-irritating, unscented massage oils made of natural ingredients is beneficial for your skin. It is essential to hydrate your skin regularly and avoid harming it while trying to relieve the itching to prevent scarring. If the itching and scarring persist, see a dermatologist for expert advice.

A few days ago I noticed a bump on my head and I thought I just hit my head. After a couple days it started to get a bit bigger and I noticed that it was a pimple on my scalp. I popped the pimple and removed all the pus and it started to bleed for a little bit but it shortly went away. I went to take a look at it today and I noticed a small circular bald spot about 1 cm in diameter where the pimple used to be. When touching the area with my hand I noticed that the hair in that area is really sensitive and can fall out if I rummage my hand through that area. Is this a concern or is this something normal?

Male | 21

A small circular bald spot on the scalp after popping a pimple is not uncommon, but if the area is sensitive and hair is falling out, please see a dermatologist to rule out infection or other underlying conditions.

Sir Maine apne biwi ka hair leser razor use Kiya hai hath pe to usse mera thoda blud nikla he to usse muje koi said effect to nhi hoga na

Male | 27

A hair razor is not suggested on the skin as it can lead to cuts and bleeding. Despite the low rate of side effects, it is better to seek a generalist or a dermatologist if the wound is deep or has any signs of infection.

Hi doc , there is some hyperpigmentation on my ear cocha , but it been a years I have that in both ears

Female | 27

Some common causes of ear discoloration can be excessive sunlight, hormone modifications, or genetic conditions. It would be wise to have an appointment with the dermatologist so that a careful evaluation and diagnosis can be done. Sunlight exposure and sunscreen should be good enough to give suitable treatment options like topical creams or laser therapy to lighten the pigmentation.

Small blisters on my penis glans ,it appeared two weeks ago. I consulted a skin specialist and applied a cream. After 5 days of treatment blister now looks like a round skin patch and new blisters appeared near to it. Am not feeling any itching or pain or any kind of discomfort because of it. As per doctor instruction I checked my blood glucose level and its 124. Is there anything to worry ... Help me

Male | 36

Round clusters and little blisters on the penis are probably symptoms of a herpes genitalia-like disease caused by a virus. This disease also leads to the appearance of new blisters, even after treatment. The grade of blood glucose that equates to 124 is a tad beyond normal, suggesting diabetes can be the case. Despite the absence of symptoms, visit your dermatologist to check and take care of it. Otherwise, unbearable pain or visual damage may become a result at a later stage.

I have a acne problem which are very visible angs sopts are very big in size

Male | 29

This is a common skin condition that occurs when the pores of your skin are clogged with oil and dead cells. This can lead to the formation of red inflamed bumps. At times, it is a result of hormonal changes or genetics. Treating your face gently by washing it with a mild soap, refraining from pinching these pimples plus using products containing benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can help clear the acne.

If this doesn’t work, see a dermatologist for more advice on caring for your skin.

Your inner thighs may have eczema - an itchy, scaly skin condition. Not changing underwear for days could worsen it. Keep skin clean and moisturized. Don't scratch! Use mild soap and lotion to soothe. Visit a dermatologist if it troubles you.

It looks like the cream you used has darkened your skin. Some creams can cause changes in skin color. It's best to consult a dermatologist, who can provide detailed advice on solutions and explain them after a thorough examination of your skin. Be extra careful when choosing skin creams.
