doctor i am having itchy and pain near my upper thighs but not on my vagina please help its so itchy and pain like there are some pimples and like some rash

Female | 20

You might be suffering from a type of skin infection known as folliculitis. This occurs when hair follicles accumulate bacteria. The symptoms you mentioned are typical of this problem: itchy, painful, pimples, and red, bumpy rashes. Excessive heat, humidity, friction of clothes, or shaving irritation can cause it. Keeping the area clean and dry is a good way to recover and loose clothes might help to relieve the pain. Another way to reduce the discomfort is by applying a warm compress on the affected area. A dermatologist should be consulted if there is no improvement.

I have acne on my right side of cheek since 5 years.And sometimes pimple also occur in that acne every now and then.It has also become bigger since 2 weeks . Please help me out.

Female | 24

If you are having recurrent acne this is probably due to the hormonal fluctuation which results into increased oily skin on the face, the scalp, chest and there are few things that has to be taken care. One thing not to apply hair oil, avoid having dandruff or use anti-dandruff shampoos weekly on the scalp, using face washes that have salicylic acid or glycolic acid. Avoid using thick greasy moisturizers or cream on the face. Use only creams that are gel based or water based. Drink plenty of water, avoid fat or cheesy diet, exercise 10-15 mins of the day. Topical steroids have to be avoided. Topical antibiotics like Clindamycin are useful. Oral Antibiotics or retinoids are advised. Even some patients require peeling sessions. A proper consultation with dermatologist is more helpful.

Male | 55

It seems your father has a severe allergic reaction to hair color. Dermatologists have advised him to avoid all hair colors to prevent further reactions. He should look for natural alternatives like henna or indigo powder, which are less likely to cause allergies. However, it's important to consult with a dermatologist or an allergist before trying any new product to ensure it's safe for him.

How can I get a prescription for Hydroquinone or Albaquin 20% for pigmentation on my face. Had Depigmentation in the past in England, where I reside for extensive vitiligo.

I get small very dark specks on my face occasionally, the Albaquin 20% helps to control these dark patches.

Female | 63

Dealing with pigmentation issues on your face can be frustrating. You're looking for a prescription for either Hydroquinone or Albaquin 20% to help lighten those dark patches. Pigmentation problems often result from sun exposure or hormonal changes. A dermatologist could evaluate your skin, and then prescribe the most suitable treatment option. Hydroquinone and Albaquin 20% are potential solutions worth considering.

Hello, I have a wart/verucca for a few years now, a couple of days ago it was painful and i noticed that it was all yellow around, like it was inflamed, so i tried to drain it and i cut the inflamed part to the point where all 7 layers of my skin was gone and it left a hole, the dimensions of the area is about 1.5cm and it doesnt hurt anymore, should i be concerned or will it heal on it own?

Female | 18

Cutting or draining a wart at home can lead to infection and other complications. Since you've removed multiple layers of skin and created a hole, there is a risk of infection, scarring, or delayed healing. A professional can assess the wound, provide appropriate treatment to prevent infection, and determine whether any further steps are needed for healing

My face is tanned to 2 shades dark color suddenly and I have 4-5 moles developed on my face and neck.Kindly suggest me medicines.

Female | 38

Sun tan is quite common because of unprotected sun exposure. This is because of excess production of melanin or excess accumulation of melanin in the skin layers in response to UV rays. Moles are formed due to arrest of melanin producing cells in skin layers where they continue to produce melanin which collects to form flat or raised moles. Tan can be treated by using certain depigmenting creams which contain glycolic acid, kojicacid, alpha arbutin etc which have to be used under the supervision of a qualified dermatologist. Procedural treatment like chemical peels and laser toning with QS yag laser can help. Most important is religious use of sunscreens to prevent further tan and improvement of skin. Moles can be treated by radiofrequency ablation, punch excision or Q-switched yag laser. So please consult a qualified Dermatologist.

Small mark on tip of penis. Almost like a pimple, becomes inflamed sometimes and turns red.

Male | 16

It seems you might have an issue such as balanitis, a common and naturally occurring thing among men. It can be seen in a small mole-like structure on the tip of the penis that is occasionally pus-filled, and it could get inflamed and red. It could also be connected with the frequency of penis washing, or it could even be traced back to some personal hygiene habits or yet another significant thing like any irritability that might be caused by soap or disinfectant. Frequent washing and drying of the area are key to a better outcome. The application of mild soaps and the avoidance of harsh chemicals are also helpful strategies. Wearing comfortable, breathable clothes and underwear made of cotton is also good. Wear only loose-fitting clothing and wear underwear made of soft, comfy cotton. When all else fails after a week or two and the results don't get better, it is a good time to see a dermatologist, possibly for further evaluation or to control the underlying issue.

It seems you have been stung by some bug which punctured your skin. This can cause sudden redness, intense pain, and itching. You need to clean the place softly with water and soap, and then apply an antiseptic cream. Finally, put an adhesive bandage on it to help it heal. If it intensifies or you feel weak, you can contact a dermatologist.

You may be suffering from a scalp abscess, which occurs when bacteria become trapped under the skin, causing an infection. Painful draining sores and a lump on the neck are common symptoms. A dermatologist should be consulted for appropriate treatment even if warm compresses help.

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.

I have recently had scrotum exploration survey 32 hours ago and was wondering how long before it can get wet and would it be okay to smoke cannabis. Also i have been prescribed to take 3 co-amoxiclav a day for 14 days, what other pain killers can i use.

Male | 18

It is suggested that a person waits at least 48 hours after they have explored their scrotum before getting it wet. This is to prevent infections. In addition, one should refrain from smoking marijuana while they are recovering to facilitate healing. If you are still experiencing pain, you could take paracetamol or ibuprofen alongside co-amoxiclav.
