Stuck with stubborn blackheads despite acne treatment progress?

Patient's Query

Hello this is Kalyan age 21 male, I've been fighting with acne for a period of 3years and even more. Tried different medications , remedies didn't worked, finally consulted a dermatologist, he recommended using Zitblow 10mg, it worked for an extent after being used for 1 years but the problem is there were still black heads on my cheeks which are stubborn and difficult to remove. I'm hoping to get some solution to the problem. Currently I'm not using any of the medications except for the cream called Acne star.

One of the leading causes of acne is that hair follicles get clogged with oil and dead skin cells. Acne results in blackheads which are the most ideal from the opening of the hair follicle. However, you can be sure that Zitblow 10mg is a really good option. The other options may contain a very gentle exfoliator to clear out the blackheads, but you need to be careful not to damage your skin. In addition, adhering to a really good skincare routine, exfoliating your face, and keeping it clean also can be beneficial to minimize the prospect of blackheads at an early stage.

Body heat too much in summer And borning sensation in feet it leads to body tiredness

Female | 26

When summer arrives, heat often causes burning feet. Our body attempts to cool itself, leading to fatigue. Inflamed nerves likely trigger burning feet. To find relief, rest frequently, and chill feet in cold water. If discomfort persists, visit your dermatologist.

Hi I got a hot water burn in my penis last night and part of the skin is like peeling and red what should I do?

Male | 18

You have a burn on your penis from hot water, and now the skin is peeling and red. Burns can be painful so it’s important to take care of them. Gently clean the area with cool water and a mild soap. You could also use aloe vera gel or some kind of soothing cream to help it heal. Don’t wear tight clothes that will irritate it more either. If it still hurts or stays red after all this, talk to a dermatologist.

Sir, I want to ask about peeling oil. Does extra strong yellow peeling oil really peel the skin???

Female | 24

This product is effective in removing the skin, yet it is extremely important to be considerate. Using strong peeling oils can cause redness, burning, and even damage to the skin. These products work by peeling off the top layer of the skin, which tends to improve skin appearance, but their wrong application can cause great trouble to the user. The best way is to consult a dermatologist before using those products to prevent side effects.

I have a rash by my neck and now it's starting by my arms. It's itching as well.

Female | 31

Rashes can be caused by quite a few different things such as allergies, skin irritations, or infections. Itching the rash might only worsen it so try not to scratch too much. To help soothe the itchiness, use a mild fragrance-free moisturizer. If it doesn’t get better or if it gets worse, it would be a good idea to consult with a dermatologist for further advice.

You may have a yeast infection. It can be responsible for such problems as itching, redness, and sometimes a thick discharge. Antibiotics, tight clothing, or a weakened immune system can be blamed for yeast infections. You can buy antifungal creams over-the-counter can ease the itching and help you get rid of the infection. You should be wearing only cotton underwear and avoiding those products with scents to ensure you are not further irritating the area.

My mother age 73 lying on bed since 5 years. She's suffering from skin blisters on arms and back. It's so itchy and painful. I'm from Karachi Pakistan. And the weather is so hot here. Kindly suggest her best medicine. She is not sugar patient but sometimes BP shoot. Same condition appear to my sister age 45 years old.

Female | 73

Sweating can irritate the skin and create blisters, especially in a hot climate. If you have a burning sensation, you can bring the heat to decrease the swelling by taking a cool, damp cloth and rubbing it on the blisters. As an alternative, calamine lotion will be of much help. Keep the affected areas clean and dry. If the blisters get worse, or if you see any signs of infection such as redness, warmth, or pus, it is necessary to have a dermatologist examine them.

I wanna use glutathione as my skin is getting darker

Female | 21

Some people wish for lighter skin, but glutathione may not help. Increased pigmentation can be caused by factors like UV rays or skin issues. Trying to change your complexion with glutathione can be risky and might not work. It’s better to focus on using sunscreen, staying hydrated, and eating a healthy diet to keep your skin healthy and glowing.

I am 16 year old and I am suffering from hair thinning, hair loss and dandruff what do I do??

Male | 16

You’re battling with hair thinning, hair loss, and dandruff at only 16. Stress, poor diet, or genetics can cause hair to get thin and fall out. Dandruff is often because of dry skin on your head or another condition that affects the scalp. Use a mild shampoo for dandruff and eat well for healthier hair growth. Speaking with a dermatologist may provide additional assistance.

I have gone through hair transplant surgery 4.5 months ago. I am suffering from Androgenetic Alopecia. As per the doctor, I am taking minoxidil and finastride on daily basis. However, my hair sheds while I apply minoxidil (10-15 hairs shed) and while I wash my head. Please suggest whether this is normal or should I consider any other treatment?

Hair fall is natural. As the lifecycle of hair has different stages.

Telogen and exogen are shedding phases of hair cycle where we lose hair. 15 to 20% hair are shed in these phases, therefore it's natural.
But when you lose more hair than routine, then its a matter of concern. Upto 30 to 40 hair per day is normal. Whatever you lose will grow back according to your hair cycle.
If you are losing thin hair very frequently then it's alarming as well.
After starting minoxidil hair fall increases. But that is normal and you will get those hair back because you are not losing them from the root.

Keep using minoxidil and finasteride it will help you.

You can refer this page to find doctors - Dermatologists in India, or you can consult me as well anytime you feel that the state of your hair is seeing no improvement.

Female | 18

Acne occurs when the pores get clogged with oil and bacteria. Having a bunch of medications and no benefits can be a terrible thing. It is crucial to keep in mind that everyone's skin is unique. Often an easy skincare program using mild products is the right route. Eliminate harsh chemicals and see a dermatologist to provide you with individualized recommendations.

Me and my girlfriend had sex yesterday and now she feels itching during urination. She has a very dry skin.

Female | 24

It seems that your partner has got a urinary tract infection. Sometimes this happens after having sex. It can give a feeling of itchiness and uneasiness when peeing. The problem can even be worse if the skin is dry. Ensure she takes a lot of water to flush out the bacteria. Wearing loose cotton underwear and using a warm pad can help reduce the discomfort. She should visit a urologist.

Female | 33

You may have a condition called eczema. Eczema can cause red, itchy patches with small water-filled blisters, especially on the hands. Switching to a new living environment can sometimes lead to skin reactions. Use a mild moisturizer, avoid harsh soaps, and wear gloves for hand protection. If the rash does not improve, it is important to consult a dermatologist for further assistance.

A big lump with a tiny pale spot on your bottom lip could happen for different causes. Sometimes, it could be a harmless sore, a pimple, or an allergic response. However, if it does not vanish or keeps growing, it is best to have a health specialist look just to be safe. .

I am 33 years old, and I got eaching on my penis, and my penis upur skin is getting closed day by day, and now it's not opening. My penis cover is not opening. What is the issue?

Male | 33

You are likely to be enriched with a condition identified as phimosis. This is when the penis foreskin is too tight and does not pull back the head of the penis. It is this condition that stimulates you to itch and the foreskin is difficult to retract. When no preventive measures are taken, it may lead to other serious complications too. You need to see an urologist who can suggest the appropriate treatment, which may include gentle stretching exercises or circumcision.
