Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Acne occurs when you have these red spots on your face caused by your skin producing too much oil. It's super common, especially during the teenage years. To help, you can use a face wash with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. These can clear up your skin by unclogging your pores.

I am a 17 year old girl, recently I noticed some white small point sized or slightly bigger patches on my hips. I don't know what to do, but I'm afraid this might be some big disease.

Female | 17

It might be a common skin condition called pityriasis alba. This isn't something to worry about. Pityriasis alba can lead to pale patches on the skin, mainly on the face, neck, and arms. You can see them better in summer when your skin is darker. Dryness is what makes the skin turn lighter than it’s supposed to be, the reason for this happening is mostly because of dryness. You might also want to consider moisturizing your skin more often with lotion, or drinking plenty of water helps too. If there is no change after doing all these things then go to a dermatologist who will advise on treatment methods for this condition.

I am using skinshine cream for last 4 years. I dont have any side effects till now. But when i came to know the side effects of using this i decided to stop using this. So how i can safely stop this without more sideeffects

Female | 27

I get why you're worried about stopping Skinshine cream after 4 years. Being careful about side effects makes sense. When you quit, your skin might get red, itchy, or dry. That happens because it got used to the cream. To avoid more problems, try using it less over time. First, use it every other day. Then every two days. Keep doing that until you stop. Going slowly like this can let your skin adjust without too much trouble. Also, moisturize lots during this change to keep your skin healthy.

If you've noticed changes in your skin color after using Voltaren gel on your face, it's important to consult a dermatologist or healthcare professional for proper evaluation and guidance. Avoid self-diagnosis and seek medical help for personalized care.

I'm 19 years old and i has phimosis.So can you suggest me some good creams for treating it

Male | 19

Phimosis means the skin on the penis won't pull back. It can make it hard to pee or hurt when you have sex. It may happen if you get a yeast infection or other skin problems. A dermatologist can give you creams like steroids to help. Keeping under the skin clean helps too. But if it doesn't get better, you may need surgery.

Black dots on nose & both side face

Female | 24

Those dark spots are called blackheads. Hair follicles get blocked by oil and dead skin cells. It happens frequently if you have oily skin. Wash face daily with gentle cleanser. Do not try squeezing blackheads. Use non-comedogenic skin products. If blackheads stay, see a dermatologist.

72 years old male with wart like small multiple pimples on thigh and back for the past 1 week Extreme burning sensation and unable to sleep Wants to attach pic but no option available

Male | 72

These pimples signify an infection called shingles, which takes place due to the emergence of intense burning and blisters on the skin. The incidence of shingles results from the reactivation of the chickenpox virus in your body. Step one in calming down the discomfort and sleeping well is to apply a cool, damp cloth to the damaged areas to cool the burning feeling and consume over-the-counter painkillers. You must see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and start the proper treatment.

have used caladryl lotion on my face from past 4 days (overnight) ...i am feeling very dry and that area has developed some tiny red swelling...also i am using skincare routine from past 15 days

Male | 17

The sign appears that you perhaps have an allergy to the Caladryl cream. On the other hand, I suggest you should stop the lotion use immediately and go to the dermatologist for a thorough examination and necessary treatment. The doctor who should consult for this disease would be a dermatologist.

Hi I am a 16 year old male. I have had these 2 bumps on my foreskin I’m just wondering if it is penile cancer. They are whiteish. It doesn’t cause pain or bleeding or anything until a few days ago when I tried to one of them.

Male | 16

Those bumps on your foreskin might be Fordyce spots, not cancer. Fordyce spots are small, whitish-yellow bumps that sometimes show up on genitals. They're harmless, common, and usually painless. You shouldn't pick or pop them. If you're worried, talk to a dermatologist to get checked out. But chances are, it's nothing serious.

I'm 25 years old and have developed a rash on my ankle. It started really small and has increased massively since returning from holiday. It's extremely itchy and uncomfortable.

Male | 25

You have developed contact dermatitis. This is a condition caused when the skin reacts to something it has touched, such as a new lotion or plant. The affected area usually becomes red, swollen, and itchy with small blisters or hives. Try to remember if there was anything different that you came into contact with before the rash appeared. To relieve itching apply cold compresses and mild lotions. If there are no changes after several days, see a dermatologist for help.

I am 21 yrs old male I have like rash, blisters forming in my inner thigh Which is itching

Male | 21

You are going through a simple condition called jock itch. This occurs mostly in men and is due to a rash, scratching, and blistering in the area of your inner thighs. Excessive perspiration, chafing, or even a fungal infection might be the cause of this. To make this easier, make sure the area is kept clean and dry, don't wear tight clothing, and use antifungal creams or powders. If the condition does not improve, visit a dermatologist.

The text in the image appears to be a screenshot of a question submitted to a telemedicine platform. The question reads: * I am a 23 year old male and I'm having rashes on my penis my body and my balls for past two weeks. I have taken an infection injection three weeks ago but haven't gotten any relief. What should I do now?

Male | 23

Rashes on your penis, body, and balls could be a result of infections, allergies, or just irritation by soaps or fabrics. It is therefore essential to visit a dermatologist who will identify the problem. After that, they can give you medication that will help clear them. Remain hopeful- with proper care everything will be alright.

A small swelling near rectum which seems to be growing a bit. Recently it feels itchy too while walking.

Male | 44

You might be dealing with a hemorrhoid. These are small lumps that form near your rectum and can sometimes get bigger with time. They may also itch or hurt especially when you walk around a lot. Hemorrhoids occur as a result of straining during bowel movements or sitting on the toilet for too long. Eating more fiber, drinking plenty of water, and using creams for relief could help. See a dermatologist if none of this works.
