Answered by Dr. Deepak Jakhar

If you have a yellow tongue with pain as well as white patches on the side you could have oral thrush which is a condition caused by fungus growing in the mouth cavity. Poor oral hygiene may lead to it; the use of antibiotics can also trigger this while having weak immunity systems puts one at greater risk too. To solve this problem people need to improve their oral hygiene, take yogurt containing live cultures or consider seeking help from a dentist if necessary.

I have skin infection like one side cheek rednees so my marriage has been fixed at that time i can apply turmric on my cheek or face

Female | 18

The causes of this type of skin disease may be bacteria, fungi, or viruses. Regarding this infection on the right side of the face, not to directly rub turmeric powder instead take the advice of the dermatologist because it could happen that not all skin types show compatibility with it. To strengthen and protect your skin, you need to wash your face gently and use a moisturizer.

I have been for four years keratosis pilaris How can I fix the skin problem?

Female | 20

Chicken skin is a condition where your skin feels bumpy, and rough, like sandpaper. Keratin buildup blocks hair follicles, causing this. Using mild cleansers helps. Moisturize often. Gentle exfoliation smooths bumps. Lactic acid or urea products reduce roughness. It's common but usually improves gradually.

I am a 28 year old female who has had itching, pain and a full feeling inside of both of my ears for about 2 months. I thought it was earwax build-up so I bought an ear camera and my ears are clear, but they are both very red and irritated and there is a small bump in front of my left ear drum. I don't really have the funds for a Dr so I just want to confirm that it's not something serious

Female | 28

You could have an infection if you have itching, pain, and redness. Also, the small bump you mentioned near your left eardrum might indicate this. Although infections may resolve spontaneously, you should not ignore them. Clean your ears gently and avoid putting objects into them. If the symptoms worsen or fail to go away, visit an ENT specialist.

Dandruff is a COMMON scalp condition causing itching and flaking. Hair loss can be caused by GENETICS, stress, or illness. Maintaining good scalp hygiene can help reduce dandruff.

I am 16 year old and I am suffering from hair thinning hair loss and dandruff what do I do??

Male | 16

At your age, losing hair or having thinning hair could occur because of stress, poor nutrition, hormonal changes, or using strong hair products. For instance, a dry scalp or a fungus can cause dandruff. To reduce stress levels, eat a well-balanced diet, use mild hair care products, and try anti-dandruff shampoos. Visit a dermatologist for more personalized recommendations.

Female | 23

I would firstly advise you to please stop using persol forte cream immediately and consult an experienced dermatologist for your issue. The dermatologist will examine your condition and will suggest the most appropriate treatment accordingly which may include oral medications, topical treatments and lifestyle changes. You may also be asked to undergo some additional tests to rule out any underlying medical problem. Thanks.
