Red Veins on Breasts: Causes & Treatment Options

Patient's Query

i’m 16 years old and recently a lot of small red veins appeared on my breasts that feel bruise like. what could this be?

Answered by Dr. Anju Methil

There­ are red lines re­sembling bruises on your breasts. The­se could be small, burst blood vesse­ls known as spider veins. These­ may appear in teens due­ to growth, hormones, or skin changes. They stand out more­ if your skin is light. Wear well-fitted bras and avoid e­xcessive pressure­ to reduce their appe­arance. If they worry you, discuss them with a dermatologist.

Can my skin color still return after not taking iron supplements for a year

Female | 19

Yes, definitely! Starting iron supplementation can help improve your skin color. Symptoms of low iron, like pallor and fatigue, can show up in your body. Most iron deficiency is due to not getting enough iron in your diet. A balanced diet should include iron-rich foods like spinach and meat. Seek advice from a healthcare professional for suitable recommendations.

I am suffering from a postpartum hair fall issue. What should I do?

Female | 30

Up to 50% of new moms suffer from normal postpartum hair loss due to such hormonal shifts. It typically spikes around 4-5 months and subsides in a period between six to twelve months. Pay attention to general health, softer hair washing and scalp massage. If hair loss is heavy, prolonged, or associated with scalp problems then it’s advised to see a dermatologist. You are not the only one, and your hair will likely be back to normal!

Balanitis is an inflammation of the skin located at the front end of the penis. If addressing the issue, professionals, such as dermatologists and urologists, who are experts in skin and urinary system disease may be consulted. The issue of balanitis springs from a lack of cleanliness, some skin conditions, or various infections.

So i was punctured by a small metal and i washed and disinfected it i also got my tetanus shot last year what should i do?

Male | 16

It seems like you’ve done a good job taking care of the metal puncture wound by cleaning and sterilizing it. Because you had a tetanus injection in the past year, you are likely to be immune to tetanus. However, watch for redness, swelling, heat, or pain in the area. If any of these symptoms occur, seek medical attention.
