Why is my penis head red and dry?

Patient's Query

I have a red, dry skaly penis head. It goes like that after masturbation or a hot shower. Normally it’s just slightly red. I’ve had this for about a year now

Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Having a crimson, parched, and flaky penis top can be unpleasant, however, there are only a few things to take into account. After masturbation or a hot bath, it’s typical to get marginally crimson. This could be due to irritation from soaps or lotions, a fungal infection, or even sensitivity to certain fabrics. To help, try using gentle soaps, avoiding tight clothes, and keeping the area dry. If the symptoms persist, seek advice from a dermatologist who can provide the right treatment.

I am 30 years old. I am a PCOD patient and have lots of facial hair as well as on chin and neck. I want to do laser hair removal. Please tell me the cost of full face hair removal and is it effective?

Female | 30

Laser hair removal is a very effective way to reduce unwanted facial hair. It works by targeting the pigment in the hair follicle, which is why it is most effective on those with dark, coarse hair. It may require multiple treatments to achieve desired results, and many people find that laser hair removal is a permanent solution to their unwanted facial hair.

The cost of full face laser hair removal varies depending on the provider, location, and size of the area being treated.

Ingrown nail. Looking for dermatologist

Male | 23

In case of an ingrown nail, it is recommended to visit a dermatologist. They can evaluate the severity of the other ingrown nail, provide its proper care and offer treatment alternatives. In mild cases, soaking the affected area in warm water and lifting gently under the ingrown edge may work. On the contrary, in case of more severe ingrown nail or recurrent one surgical intervention is indicated. Do not try to deal with it yourself to avoid complications or infections. The healthcare professional should be consulted for proper treatment specific to your case.

I am 24 years old and by mistake I Swallow cool lip. What should I do? It is dangerous or not ?

Male | 24

Accidentally gulping a cool lip gloss can be­ a bit worrying, but do not panic. Small amounts of lip gloss are usually okay to swallow. If you do not feel trouble­ breathing or bad stomach pain, you will likely be fine­. Drink some water to help wash it down your throat. Howe­ver, if you start feeling unwe­ll, contact a doctor for guidance right away.

Mere bal kuch hafto se bhot tezi se jhad rhe iski vajh se m bhot presan hu mujhe ye samjh nhi a rha ki esa kyu ho rha

Female | 20

It may be because of hormonal or nutrition deficiency. Did you change anything recently in your diet? You should include protien and iron rich food in your diet. Stress is also a reason of hair loss. . . . Please make sure to take CAREFUL care of your HAIR. It is important to keep them healthy by taking a BALANCED diet and REDUCING stress. If the problem still persists, then it is better to visit a dermatologist.

I’m 22 year old male. I’m having jock itch for the last 4 years. How can It be treated?

Male | 22

Jock itch is a common problem and it can be quite annoying. It is caused by a fungus that grows in warm, wet places such as the groin. The signs include the groin area being red, itchy, and having a rash. For the treatment, you can use store-bought antifungal creams. You should also make sure to keep the area clean and dry as it will help healing faster.

Female | 25

Vitiligo is a condition where­ white spots show up on skin. It occurs when pigment-producing ce­lls malfunction. No cure exists, but treatme­nts aid. Topical steroids or calcineurin inhibitors work best. The­y restore some color to affe­cted areas. Sun protection is crucial, as e­xposure worsens symptoms.
