Why Do I Have White Patches On My Skin?

Patient's Query

i have white patches all over body and between fingers my skin looks like old people like snake skin i apply oil to qll parts daily to hide patches how to rectify this

Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Epidermal psoriasis can make your skin look like a puzzle with indented edges. It is not always the case that you get white spots between your fingers. Covering flares with oil is not a good idea because it doesn't address the trigger. To address this problem, you should visit a dermatologist who can guide you on creams, ointments, or other prescribed medications for psoriasis. Washing your skin and reducing the number of patches can be helpful. Using milder soaps and applying moisturizers will also help.

Greetings sir my daughter is four years old she was some what black with your suggestion I want her for skin whitening treatment which one is permanent for her chemical peel or Laser treatment please suggest me sir

Female | 4

Neither of these treatments is recommended for children under the age of 18. Chemical peels and laser treatments are not permanent skin whitening treatments. These treatments can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots, but they will not permanently lighten the skin.

Hiii im a 19yo female. I recently shared a drink and a cigarette with a guy i just found out has herpes. He didnt have any sores on his mouth so im wondering if is possible to catch oral herpes by those contacts? Thank u in advance

Female | 19

Oral herpes can be spread through sharing drinks or cigarettes, even when no sores are visible. Symptoms might include tingling, itching, or blisters on or around the lips. There is no cure for herpes; however, antiviral drugs can help control outbreaks. Don't forget to follow safe practices to protect yourself from such infections in the future.

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.

You have a recurrent fungal infection in your lower body. Warm and humid conditions, such as excessive sweating, are the possible causes of fungal infections. Symptoms are characterized by redness, itching, and a rash. To help, ensure the area is dry and clean, wear breathable clothes, and apply antifungal creams. Also, strictly follow the given directions for the cream to notice the improvement.

I'm having dandruff from last 10 years. Tried many Doctors, medicines & home remedies but still having the same problem. Looking for a good medicine to cure this problem.

Male | 26

There are a few products available to help with dandruff. Better to use those that contain selenium sulfide, zinc pyrithione, or ketoconazole. These ingredients are known to help reduce dandruff. Avoid styling products that contain alcohol, as these can dry out and irritate the scalp. Talk to your doctor about any underlying conditions it could be a sign of an infection or other medical condition.

Having pimple and painful bumps need a cream or gel.

Male | 22

Your skin issues se­em to indicate pimples and sore­ bumps. These happen whe­n pores get blocked, trapping bacte­ria inside. An over-the-counte­r cream or gel with benzoyl pe­roxide or salicylic acid may help. These­ ingredients reduce­ inflammation by killing bacteria on your skin's surface. Wash your face re­gularly to prevent clogging. Don't squee­ze pimples, though - that can cause scarring. With some­ care, those bumps will clear up.
