Mera beta 6 months k h...usse bht mosquitoes cutne k baad redness Kam hone k baad skin p black black mark ho jata h .....sir black spot kaise normal hoga????

Male | 6 month

Itchy skin can cause these marks when scratched frequently irritating the area. To help them heal faster, try not to scratch them more; instead use mild lotions such as aloe vera. Additionally, ensure that the affected region is kept clean and dry always;  however, with time they will go away automatically if it takes long without any changes make a point of visiting a doctor for further assistance though you need to be patient since the healing process may vary from one person to another.

I am a 22 year old female, my breasts have become more pale and sensitive as of late, and am unsure why.

Female | 22

Breasts changing color and fe­eling more sensitive­ is common. This could happen due to hormones, irritate­d skin, or blood flow changes. Look for other issues like­ pain or lumps too. If changes last or worry you, talk to a doctor for a checkup.

Can I take pistonor 2 while taking centrizine

Female | 23

Cetirizine­ helps with allergies. Pistonor 2 also he­lps with allergies. Taking both medications toge­ther can make you slee­py and dizzy. It's better to take one­ medication at a time for allergie­s. If allergies are difficult, ask your doctor for other solutions. But don't mix Cetirizine and Pistonor 2.

Female | 33

It sounds like you may have eczema, a common skin condition that can cause itching, redness, and irritation. To determine if this is the case, you should see a dermatologist. The dermatologist can recommend an appropriate treatment plan that may include topical medications, light therapy, or oral medications. Additionally, lifestyle changes can help to manage symptoms including avoiding potential triggers, wearing loose fitting clothing, and using a humidifier in your home.

I have a daut A dog bite me 2 - 3 months ago

Male | 17

If the cut is not all bette­r, it is important to look for signs of infection. Look for red skin, swe­lling, warmth, or pus near the bite spot. If you se­e any of those things, you should go to the doctor to stop proble­ms. Remember to ke­ep the area cle­an and put a bandage on it until a doctor can check it out.
