I am 21 years old and having forehead acne only and no acne on other part of face and my doctor suggested me isotretinoin should I take it or they are for severe acne?

Female | 21 years

Forehead acne is quite common. It can be because of the sebum the skin makes too much as it gets plugged and distresses the follicles. Isotretinoin is mainly used for the treatment of severe acne, so if your doctor has recommended it, it may indicate that your acne has become more severe and chronic. Make sure you are listening to your doctor and feel free to express your worries if you have any.

I have facial hair growth over both chin and upper lip. Its because of hormonal imbalance my DHEA level is 180. So may i know if laser hair removal will help get rid of this facial hair growth.

Female | 29

Laser hair removal can be an effective way to remove unwanted facial hair. But it is important to discuss any hormonal imbalances with your doctor before beginning a treatment plan. Laser hair removal may not be the best option for you if your DHEA level is high as this could lead to an increased risk of side effects. Your doctor may suggest other options such as oral medications, topical creams, or electrolysis.

Male | 13

Without a physical examination, it is difficult to understand your problem and the cause of it. I advise you to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis of your condition. Based on that, he may recommend the right treatment for your problem which can include antibiotic or anti-inflammatory creams.

I have face problem . Redness on my cheeks Hot sensation Small colour less pimple appear Itchy skin Dry patchess on skin Can I calamine lotion for these problems?

Female | 24

This appears to be eczema, a common skin condition. The redness of the skin, a feeling of warmth, colorless pus spots, itching, and dry patches are all symptoms of eczema. Calamine lotion can help relieve the itching but will not treat the cause. Use a mild moisturizer to hydrate the skin and avoid anything that might irritate it. If your symptoms do not improve, you must see a dermatologist for further assistance.

I have these little rashes on my neck and I need them to go away I need some type of cream or medicine that would help it so my neck wouldn’t have all of these rashes on my neck it’s so annoying

Female | 20

These welts might result from skin irritations, allergies, or even some skin disorders such as eczema. To help them disappear, you could get an over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream. This cream will reduce the swelling. Avoid itching or scratching to prevent further irritation. Also, remember to clean the affected area and keep it dry. But if these rashes are still there after doing all these things then go see a dermatologist.

You might have a skin infection or an allergic reaction from something in the woods. Since it's spreading and very itchy, it's best to see a dermatologist as soon as possible. They can examine it properly and provide the right treatment.

I have a cyst on armpit its inside and shows some movebility its been for 2 years and i have no pain or anything even i cant feel it there but now i have 2 more same cyst on my arm pit what is it doctor

Male | 19

According to the information you provided, you may have cysts in your armpit part. A cyst is like a small pocket filled with water and can be quite common. Cysts can happen when skin cells are blocked and then form a pile under the skin. They can also be seen in groups. You don't have any pain or problems which makes it unlikely that it is something serious. But, it is always a good idea to let a dermatologist look at them.

Itching with dark black circles and also it is spreading in my body

Male | 21

Dark black circles spreading on your body seem difficult. Maybe it's eczema causing those itchy dry patches? Eczema makes skin irritated and dark. Left alone, it gets worse. Try gentle lotion, and avoid harsh soap. See a dermatologist if it won't go away. They'll help diagnose the problem and treat it properly.

Female | 21

You may have dyshidrotic eczema. It looks like small blisters on hands, fingers, and feet. Irritants, allergies, or stress cause this condition. Though not itchy, blisters feel painful sometimes. Keep hands and feet cool and dry. Use mild products. Avoid triggers like certain soaps or foods. If it worsens, see a dermatologist.

A breakout on your bum can arise due to sweat, friction, or clogging pores with bacteria. To minimize acne, wear loose-fitting clothes, shower after driving, and use a mild facial cleanser. As other options, develop a habit of consulting with the pharma about the medications selected. It may help you reduce the symptoms.
