Mark

My 3 year old son has been breaking out into very itchy bumps for the last one week. These bumps come and go without leaving any mark. I have seen them on his face, arms, legs and stomach. There has been no change in his diet and he is otherwise well. What could this be? I am very worried.

I understand your concern since your son must be in considerable discomfort. However what he has is known as Acute Urticaria, also called hives. This is a skin reaction pattern caused due to histamine release in the skin and can be caused due to a number of underlying reasons. In children amongst the commonest are intestinal worms and recent infection (e.g viral fever, cough & cold). In most cases acute urticaria is self-limiting with in 2-6 weeks. I would recommend deworming your son with Syru ...

I am 35 years hold and suffer from occassional acne and rosacea. I used Diprogenta, as I had developed contact dermatitis when I tried using tooth paste to cure a recent eruption I had. The spot cured and the inflammation went down completely. However, it has left a dark reddish spot on the face. Please advise. Usually, when I get an eruption and it cures, I don;t really get a dark mark, as the one that has developed. Should I continue usign diprogenta or fucidin. Is there an alternative? Please advise.

Hello, What you have sounds like Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation. This will gradually clear over the next few months. Using an SPF 50 sunscreen 2-3 times a day on the entire face along with a 2% Hydroquinone cream on the dark spot at night will help speed up clearance. DCL AHA Lightening Gel is a good Hydroquinone cream but there are more effective prescription ones which you can ask your doctor about. Please note that the information I have provided is for general purposes only and does n ...

Hi I'm a 17 year old, I recently burnt my cheeks due to applying toothpaste , as I have read about toothpaste as a home remedy for removal of pimples and acne .I applied it for 4-5 days only to know that it had burnt my skin to due excessive use. A reddish brown mark came on both of my cheeks. Since then, I used bio oil intitally and then the skin started to get strechy and started it appeared to peal off. I removed the dead skin and in the burnt area a light skin coloured patch came which became pink later. I used coconut oil for a day and the skin on both sides became strechy and reddish brown again just a little lighter this time. Now I have been using Silver nitrate silverex ionic and this is the 3rd day since the burnt appeared on my cheeks. Please help, I just want to know if a scar would persist or not and how much time will this take to heal completely and the area would match my skin colour..thank you.

Never suggest or apply toothpaste for pimples or burns. Stop experimenting with your body especially your face. Now apply cold cream at night and sunscreens at day time for 2months.The more you fiddle the more is risk of scars. If problem increases see a skin specialist ...
