Why Does My 2-Year-Old Have Dark Lips?

Patient's Query

My two year old daughter have darkening in colour around her lips

Dermatology

Answered by Dr. Archit Aggarwal

Darkening around the mouth can be caused by several factors, including irritation from drooling or a reaction to certain foods. Sometimes, it may also be related to dryness or sun exposure. Ensure your daughter’s lips are well-moistened and protect her skin from harsh sunlight. If the discoloration persists or worsens, it's best to consult a pediatrician. They can provide a thorough evaluation and appropriate guidance. Remember, many skin changes in children are harmless and resolve on their own with proper care.

Mere face ke neeche neck ke pass hanging pimples hogaye hain. Hanging pimples ko hatane ke liye kya karoon. Please tell me medicine and treatment for removal of my hanging pimples. My age is 35 years.

पुरुष | 35

Those pimples under your chin could be a sign of acne. This can happen due to overstretched pores and excessive oil production on your skin. You can use a thorough cleanser and products containing ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid to help eliminate them. It is also important not to pick or squeeze the pimples, as this can worsen them. If over-the-counter treatments don't work, it is best to see a dermatologist for further advice. Sometimes, antibiotics may also help.

Vitamin B12 and vitamin D deficiency lead to hair loss. It is advised that you see a dermatologist and an endocrinologist for a thorough examination and treatment.

Almost from last 4-5 months right side of labia majora has been swell and it is very itching in that area. And had one small pimple in that are from last 1yr . Please suggest some medicine. I am 23 years old , I am student (don't have money to consult a doctor or to meet that why I am trying to connect who provide free service)

Female | 23

It seems like you are dealing with an infection in that area, which is the possible cause of the swelling and itching. The tiny pimple you mentioned is related as well. It is important to keep the area clean and dry so that you can avoid the further irritation caused. An over-the-counter antifungal or antibacterial cream is an option for you to use if you want to prevent the symptoms from getting worse, but if the symptoms persist or worsen, it is better to visit an orthopedist to get the correct diagnosis.

I am having allergy from sun. Whenever I expose to sun I feel itchy in my whole body. It happened from 2022. I get red bumbs. I can even wear skinny clothes or clothes which aren't cotton. So I wear 2XL or 3XL size cotton tshirt. I went to the Best doctor in my city. And I got to know it's Solar urticaria. He gave me medicine I used to take medicine. And it becomes normal. Now the symptom changed. I am getting red bumps like mosquito bites and I never leave my that part of the body which got the bumps. I always scratch that part. Like I got bumps in my leg closer to foot area and also in foot area 2 weeks ago. I can never concentrate other things. And yes The whole body also feel itchy but the red bump part is more itchy. I can't even go to college or coaching because I always scratch. My doctor is out of city he will return in March. he gave me 2 medicine and lotion but it's not working anymore.

Female | 21

It appears as if you have solar urticaria, which is a state of allergic conditions from the light. The symptoms you are suffering from are related to this condition and they can be so-called red bumps and itchiness. I suggest you look for a dermatologist who deals with the disease of solar urticaria.

I'm 19 I have bacterial infection past 2months so I visit to my near general doctor they suggest clonate ointment and candid dusting powder but still there is no improvement?daybyday its increased and itching also I have so I used clobetamil ointment now infection is mildly decreased but this is not permanent solution?so pls give solution for my problem dr

Female | 19

Clonate ointment and candid dusting powder are corticosteroid and antifungal powder respectively which are not recommended for treating bacterial infections and hence it is suggested to stop the same at once. Proper diagnosis and treating the condition accordingly is essential in your case. Ruling out underlying cause and identifying the source of bacterial infections is equally important. Please consult a Dermatologist immediately so that appropriate antibiotics, good skin care regimen and creams can be recommended.

I was relocated to Gurgaon for my job, and after that, I noticed that my hair density started to reduce, and a lot of white hairs began to appear

Male | 20

Stress and environmental changes, or/plus the lack of sufficient nutrients, in which the intake of some vitamins is the big one are the main issues.

Emotional and physical pressure, particularly during those periods of time when one needs to relocate, could be causes of these alterations. To keep your hair healthy, you may think about what you are eating which is a diet with a good level of supplementary vitamins and minerals, how to release the stress by relaxation methods, and the proper hydration of it are the measures you can think of. You may also consult a dermatologist.

Female | 23

Hidradenitis suppurativa is liable to painful lumps beneath the skin, usually in places where the skin rubs together. Bacteria infections, usually due to blocked hair follicles, are the main causes of this. To manage it, you can try some home remedies like gentle cleansing, wearing loose clothing, and medications prescribed by a dermatologist.

Pimple on anus giving pain

Male | 30

This may occur because of a swollen hair follicle or clogged gland; at times, it could indicate infection. If within some days the condition does not improve along with the bump becoming painful, then visit a dermatologist. Also, ensure to keep the place tidy while putting on loose clothes for comfort.

My toe nails are changing to a yellow color..also I have skin peeling between my toes and it hurts very much.. can you prescribe me anything for it..I'm guessing it's athletes feet and toe nails fungus

Female | 40

Your symptoms sound like athlete’s foot and toenail fungus. An athlete’s foot can cause your nails to turn yellow, make the skin on your feet peel off, and make your toes hurt. The fungus that leads to athlete’s foot loves warm, damp areas – like sweaty feet. You can use over-the-counter antifungal creams on your skin and nails to treat it. Also, try to keep your feet clean and dry so they are less appealing to the fungus.

quick thing l wanted to mention, l encountered a problem not to long ago, every night when l was going to bed l put the heater on and left it on for the whole night the heat got really intense at times even reaching 80 degrees. l did this for like 4 weeks every night. And then the bottom of my mouth got a burnt mark, it's been 5 months, and the burnt mark is still there, l've been wandering how can l get rid of this

Male | 20

You might have a thermal burn in your mouth due to the extreme heat. This usually happens when the tissues in your mouth have been exposed to high temperatures for an extended period. Sometimes, burns take some time to completely heal. To speed up the healing process, apply gels that soothe or ointments meant for mouth burns. Also, drink cold liquids and avoid eating spicy or hot foods because they can increase discomfort levels. However, if the burnt mark continues, go to see a dentist.

Male | 23

Seems like the problem is fungal in the intimate area. This is what's causing the itching and the pimple-like bump. The most important thing is to keep the area clean and dry so the healing can take place. Avoid rubbing or scratching the area as it can make it worse. You can try using an antifungal cream to help clear up the infection. Make sure to wear loose-fitting underwear and don't wear tight clothing as this will result in faster healing of the area.

I have some skin alergy in left neck on front side on 04.10.24 and i use Boroline but nothing improvement. It was very irritation, light pain when touch or cloth touch on it.also small white blisters shown in it. From 05.10.24 it was spreading at shoulder and near side of back or right side. I have applied ointment Clobenate GM from 06.10.24 evening but not much relief. It itching some times which are ignorable. I have taken Montek LC with livocitrizin tablet yesterday.

Male | 33

You may have a skin allergy causing swelling, pain, and white blisters on your left neck, which are now spreading to your shoulders and back. This could be due to contact with an allergen like a chemical or plant. Using Clobenate GM might not be the only solution. It’s a good idea to stop using Boroline and consult your dermatologist for a proper evaluation and treatment plan. Avoid scratching to prevent the condition from worsening.

I have a red spot under my big toenail.

Female | 20

A red spot beneath your toenail indicates subungual hematoma. It must have happened from an injury that caused bleeding under the nail. That red spot is trapped blood. Leave it be if it's painless. Your nail will grow out in months. However, if it really hurts, visit a dermatologist.

I am a 39 year old woman and am having an issue with my skin on my chin for the last 2 weeks. After friction from making out with someone new. He did not have a beard. Maybe slight stubble but really not noticeable. My skin became raw and I put Vaseline on it and neosporin. After about a week acne started appearing. I changed my regimen to a salicylic acid ointment and moisturizer. It seems to help a bit but not a lot. My skin is less raw but still splotchy and red with acne. I have not ever struggled with skin issues. Should I keep up the acne treatment? Should I do something else? It peels and is uncomfortable (it stings with the ointment but once it dries it doesn’t hurt but it does bother me). I’m traveling in Brazil now but am from the US. Any help appreciated before I head home! I plan to see a dermatologist PA when I get back.

Female | 39

Your skin seems irritated by friction. The rawness, redness, and acne result from that. Using salicylic acid ointment helps acne. Continue applying it. Gently wash your skin, moisturize too. Consult a dermatologist for guidance.
