Please I've been over sweating this past week, I don't know why. I sweat a lot in sunny conditions, but this time it's soo much worse I don't know why. My height is 5 feet 5 and my weight is 90kg. Please what do you think the problem is?

Female | 22

Hyperhidrosis may be warned by profuse sweating, specially in sunny days. But one must rule out any underlying medical condition such as thyroid or inflammatory disease. I advise you to visit a dermatologist for assessment and diagnosis. They can offer treatments and guidance on the condition’s management.

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.

This could be a result of many things; such as pain when passing urine- having rashes on the labia minora or even mouth sores accompanied by high fever and aching throat. This infection is likely a UTI or STI but is not limited to Behcet’s disease which may cause ulcers on your body part(s). It would help if undergo a proper diagnosis from a dermatologist.

Salic cu glyco peeling is gud for skin?

Female | 30

Salicylic acid and glycolic acid peels can be beneficial for skin.. Both ingredients exfoliate, unclog pores, and improve skin texture .. SALICYLIC ACID is oil soluble, making it an effective treatment for acne-prone skin.... GLYCOLIC ACID is water soluble, making it a good choice for dry skin. However, these peels should only be done by a qualified professional, as they can cause skin damage if not done properly . It's important to discuss any concerns with a DERMATOLOGIST before undergoing the treatment.

You are dealing with a penile skin infection. Among the symptoms you mentioned, itching, redness, and dryness are the most common signs of this type of infection. The causes could come from fungus or bacteria. For treatment, you should start with the habit of keeping it clean and dry. Another option could be to use over-the-counter antifungal cream, but if you are not getting better, it is best to go to the dermatologist and get more treatment.

Hi I am 21 years old I am suffering face white heads severely on nose and blackheads also facing open pores and facing sabeceous filaments on chin tell me about best sunblock and best treatment of these things

Female | 21

These are common issues at your age. They happen because your skin makes too much oil and dead skin cells clog your pores. To help, use a sunblock with SPF 30 or higher to protect your skin. A good treatment would include gentle cleansing with salicylic acid, use non-comedogenic moisturizers, and see a dermatologist for specific suggestions about your skin.

Hi ..i am 30 yr old girl and unmarried .I have acne breakouts in my face and back ..its so painful and sometime it turns white and give blood from that without touching too .i tried lot of home remedy solutions but still breakout doesn't goes away .

Female | 30

Acne management is a comprehensive approach. That acquires removing of oil using proper facewash, containing salicylic acid, or lactic acid, then avoiding oiling of the scalpels and using tropicals containing cleaner and antibiotics and if hormonal imbalances there, that has to be corrected. So please visit our nearest dermatologist for the same.

It appears you might have a severe sunburn, exhibiting signs of sun poisoning. When you experience an intense sunburn, sun poisoning can occur. Fever, chills, vomiting, and severe discomfort are symptoms. Ensure adequate hydration, cool your skin with compresses and take pain relievers if necessary.

I am a 17 year old boy. I am uncircumcised. I got to know that by 17, I should be able to pull back my foreskin completely. I tried doing it and after a few painful attempts of pulling my foreskin, I did it. But the head of the penis was red and I got very uncomfortable and painful upon touching the head of the penis. I am worried about it as I have always been conscious and anxious about it. Please help me out. Thank you!

Male | 17

What you are experiencing is a common issue called Balanitis. It's prevalent in boys who were not circumcised. Symptoms consist of redness and pain when the penis head is touched. This can occur due to bad hygiene or an allergy. The best way out is to keep the place clean and dry, avoid harsh soaps, and gently hold the skin back while showering. If it doesn't work, you need to visit a dermatologist to give you further advice.

Even Salic acid 20% gel at night on spots is helpful. Glyco 6 or Glycolic acid 6% is recommended for application on the face. Acne compatible sunscreen is also helpful.

Female | 30

Alopecia is a condition that leads to hair loss. It may be a cause of concern, resulting in a rise in the emotions of sadness. Some of the most common symptoms consist of patches of hair loss on the scalp. Different causes like hereditary and panic can lead to alopecia. Although some people have found Rosemary water to be a helpful home remedy, it should be noted that its effectiveness varies from person to person. Moreover, it's important to remind your friend to prioritize self-care practices, stress management, and seeking out a dermatologist for treatment plans tailored to her in addressing alopecia.

Male | 34

It seems like a case of fungal infection; a skin condition that may cause itching and redness on the lower part of the skin. It is caused by germs which thrive well in warm and moist areas. Keeping the skin dry and clean, using antifungal creams as well as putting on loose clothes can be helpful. To avoid further irritation, kindly refrain from scratching.

Hello, I am suffering from Alopecia areta at my sideburns. It started around 2006, by now I've lost them completely. A doctor from Solapur had injected in that area twice, still, hair didn't grow. Kindly suggest what can be a guaranteed solution at a reasonable price?

These are your treatment options for hair loss: Biotin tablets, PRP treatment, minoxidil lotion.

I wouldn't recommend hair weaving.

But virtual platform has restrictions, thus I would further encourage you to reach out to me, or other specialists and this page will help - Dermatologists.

Let the team know if you have any location-specific requirements.

A while back I realized I had a mole in my labia mayora. It’s between 0.4-0.5cm big, oval shaped and one color. I think I’ve had it for months now but since I really started paying attention to it I don’t think it has grown. Should I be concerned?

Female | 23

New moles often appear on the skin, like the labia majora. Watch the mole closely if it changes size, shape, or color. Any changes, itching, bleeding, or pain requires seeing a dermatologist.
