Dermatology

Answered by Dr. Deepak Jakhar

You might be dealing with a hemorrhoid. These are small lumps that form near your rectum and can sometimes get bigger with time. They may also itch or hurt especially when you walk around a lot. Hemorrhoids occur as a result of straining during bowel movements or sitting on the toilet for too long. Eating more fiber, drinking plenty of water, and using creams for relief could help. See a dermatologist if none of this works.

I have (in the last 24 hours) developed unusual blisters on my hands, fingers, nose, and cheek. Two mornings ago I woke up with a fever and chills (it has since subsided) and took Advil to help, but after two rounds of taking it, I noticed the bottle was a few years expired--perhaps this is related?

Male | 23

In the past 24 hours, if you have developed strange blisters around your hands, fingers cheek and nose then it is necessary to see a dermatologist. However, even if the expired Advil has no connection to the blisters, it is still essential never to take any medication after its expiration date. Seek specialized medical care in case your condition does not improve.

I am 28 yo female and recently got sclerotherapy done on both legs (last Wednesday so it has been over a week). My veins have gotten worse, they are purple and more visible and quite sensitive to the touch. There is no bruising. My dermatologist said I may have had an allergic reaction to the treatment and suggested I get antihistamines. Will the veins subside?

Female | 28

Veins do appear more visible naturally after sclerotherapy treatment, but they usually improve over time as the body reabsorbs the treated veins. Its best to discuss your concerns with your dermatologist and follow the recommended treatment. Avoid prolonged sitting or standing and to wear compression stockings as recommended to decrease swelling and heal faster.

I am 17yrs old and I don’t knw what is wrong with my eye section I got a huge bumb right above my eye lashes

Male | 17yrs

It sounds like you may have a stye. A stye is a red, painful lump situated near the eyelid's edge. People may suffer swelling, tenderness, and at times even pus formation. Generally, bacteria are responsible for causing styes when they invade the oil glands around the eyelids. You should administer warm compresses to your eye several times every day without squeezing or bursting the infected area to treat it. It might be wise to consult an eye specialist if no improvement occurs, or the condition deteriorates.

Hi,my self Bhargav, Recently I observed small holes under the pennies, when I press that holes, white and black substance coming outside, initially i thought like these are formed by hair grow.

Male | 29

You may have folliculitis, which is a common skin condition. This occurs when the hair follicles become infected with bacteria. The holes you can see are where the infection is coming out; this may contain pus hence the white and black things you mentioned. Clean the affected area regularly and use warm compresses too. However, if it’s too uncomfortable for you then visit a dermatologist.

My face is turning black, I have used the sun screen.

Male | 37

You might be experiencing hyperpigmentation, where skin appears darker due to various factors like sun exposure, hormonal changes, or inflammation. Even with sunscreen, some individuals may still notice darkening. It's important to assess your skincare routine and consider factors such as the type of sunscreen and its application. Ensure you're applying it liberally and reapplying regularly, especially during prolonged outdoor activities. For persistent or concerning changes, I recommend consulting a dermatologist. They can provide personalized advice and treatment options to help your skin recover and restore its natural tone.

I'm 25 year old male. I'm facing recurring infection and inflammation on penis head and glace with bad smell. Please suggest me permanent treatment.

Male | 25

You may have a condition called balanitis which infection and inflammation of the penis head and glans. This may be due to negligence of personal hygiene, irritation from certain products, or a fungal or bacterial infection. To treat it, the area should be kept clean and dry, harsh soaps should be avoided, loose underwear should be worn, and an antifungal or antibiotic cream prescribed by a doctor should be used. If the problem persists, consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.

Hello I have been having a skin infection of something that looks like ringworm. It starts like a pimple and later widens into different sizes. It started appearing on my thighs and is now appearing on every other part of my body except my face and scalp. There are moments when my skin is void of any but on other periods it appears almost every where with a lot on my fingers and palms. It's been on and off for more than 10 years now. I've consulted several dematologist with each having a different diagnosis and prescribing different creams to be applied on the affected spots but those have not helped me in any way. I truly do not know what else to do. Please help.

Female | 27

Ringworms often spread and return if not treated well. Fungal infections love warm, damp body areas. Antifungal creams don't always work for severe and stubborn infections. I suggest seeing an experienced dermatologist. They can evaluate your unique condition much better and recommend medications or other treatments suitable for this.

i have dead skin constantly pealling off my toes and a couple of cuts at the bottom of each toe and in-between the toes too

Male | 43

You probably developed athlete's foot. This fungal infection grows between toes, warm and moist spots. Peeling skin signifies it. Cuts are another symptom. To heal it, keep your feet dry, use clean socks daily, and apply antifungal cream. Clearing it takes time. Be patient. Stick with the treatment regimen.

I had very active warts on my mouth and I got pRP with micro Needling. And I have taken two sessions of this .But I did not notice any difference in it. Can you tell me after how many months does the result of Micro Medlining with PRT appear properly on the face?

Female | 22

You have been using PRP with micro-needling on your active warts on the mouth but have not seen any results yet. Warts are often obstinate and require a long time to disappear. Generally speaking, the treatment can take up to 6 months of regular sessions to begin showing results. Keep going to your sessions and be patient. If you don't see improvement after a few more sessions, talk to a dermatologist.

Moles count the most frequent skin growths. A sore like that located inside the nose is no big deal. The best choice is to let it alone and not to attempt to remove it at home. Consult a dermatologist for the removal of a mole to avoid any bleeding or infection.

I'm 28 years old male and I'm using extra strong peeling oil on my face for two days and I get a skin irritation, redness and black spots on my all over face and I stop using the product.... What can I do now to my face now

Male | 28

It seems the strong peeling oil you have used is aggravating your skin. Issues such as irritation, redness, and dark patches arise when the products’ concentration is excessive for your skin type. To make your skin feel soft, cleanse it gently with a soft and hydrating cleanser, and then apply fragrance-free moisturizer. The sun’s rays can burn your skin, especially if you are sensitive to it. Alert the doctor to the prolonged irritation problem or, even better, see the dermatologist for a personalized treatment plan.

Female | 1

It’s normal for your 1.8-year-old daughter to have fine hair in those areas. It could be because her dad is hairy – sometimes it runs in the family. These hairs are not a problem and do not require any treatment. As she gets older these hairs may become thicker, but that is fine too.
