hello i had a infected ingrown toenail removed yesterday afternoon and it’s bruising really bad from the numbing shots and is very sore is that a concern of a infection or

Female | 17

Swelling, pain, and discoloration in the toe are normal after the ingrowing toenail is removed because of the bruising. It may be from the shots that removed the sensation in the area. Don't worry; if it's been a day since the procedure, the formation of a bruise is common. Temperature, severe pain, redness of skin, or the presence of any pus are signs of infection. Follow the recommendations for keeping the region spotless, raising your foot, and taking painkillers. If you think you set out signs of infection, contact a dermatologist.

Which treatment suits on me, as i m suffering from acne pigmentation nd dullness?

Female | 27

Dealing with acne, dark spots, and dullness can be frustrating. Acne causes pimples. Pigmentation leads to unwanted dark patches. Dullness makes your complexion appear tired, lacking radiance. To tackle these woes, consider skincare with retinol, niacinamide, and vitamin C. Shielding your skin from sun damage by applying sunscreen regularly is crucial. Cleanse your face diligently, resist picking at blemishes, and stay hydrated by drinking ample water.

Male | 31

You may be having a skin disorder known as vitiligo. Vitiligo is a condition in which parts of the skin turn white due to a lack of pigmentation. Problems like the skin shortage of pigmentation appear in white patches due to vitiligo disease. The methods of treating vitiligo can be quite difficult, but they can be handled with the help of some medicines like calming creams, phototherapy, and sometimes surgery. Not using sunscreen and the nervousness of a greater cause can intensify the symptoms. Visit a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.

Female | 24

It looks like you may be having an allergic response. This happens when your body does not like something. The swelling and pain in your right breast could be from an insect bite or something else your body does not like. Put a cold pack on it to lower the swelling. Take medicine to help with itching. If it does not get better, see a dermatologist.

Female | 23

Lots of oil from your scalp could cause hair fall. Your scalp may quickly become oily after a few hours. You might have oily dandruff flakes. Your hair may seem dry and damaged. Together, these signs point towards seborrheic dermatitis. This skin issue makes your scalp produce too much oil. The extra oil leads to dandruff and hair troubles. A medicated shampoo for oily dandruff can improve your scalp health and can reduce your hair fall.

Seems like you have been fighting acne for this period already and it hasn’t been easy. What brings about them are blocked pores plus germs Isotretinoin alternatively known as Accutane is a strong drug usually saved for serious cases of acne. It can be a permanent solution for certain individuals.

Male | 23

If you're dealing with oily skin, acne, pigmentation, or other skin issues, I recommend using "The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%" serum. This product helps reduce sebum production and acne occurrence. For moisturizing, try "Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer SPF 30" to keep your pores clear. You might also like "Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash," which is gentle on skin affected by impurities. To protect your skin from sun damage, apply "CeraVe Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30." These products can help give your skin a radiant appearance.

You might be going bald from a spot above your head. This can happen as a result of male-pattern baldness. You might note that thinner hair is the case and your scalp is becoming more prominent. The triggers might be genetic factors and hormonal agents. Medication options such as minoxidil and finasteride can be considered but it is preferable to consult a dermatologist to obtain a personalized solution.
