Hi
Possible causes for these light brown spots may be a fungal infection or postinflammatory hyperpigmentation. They may not be something serious. Just continue to observe the spots. In the absence of itchiness, scaling or redness, these may not be something serious. Wash the area with a mild cleanser such as Cetaphil. Apply a light moisturizer over the ar...
Hi
This spot may be a fungal infection. Tinea versicolor may present with a light patch of skin with a mild scaling in the center. This may itch slightly and may readily spread in some areas. Sweat, heat and moisture may cause the spot to itch.
Other possible causes are dermatitis, eczema, and insect bites. You may apply 1% hydrocortisone cream thinly o...
Hi
This does not sound like an STD. This may be a hyperpigmented area, much like a mole. I suggest that you have this assessed by your dermatologist so that the cause may be ascertained. Moles in the genitals may require further assessment. In the absence of previous injury or trauma to the area, this may not be something that requires immediate interventi...
Hi
Scarring due to infections or injury may leave scars which may render the affected skin uneven. Scars may take time to resolve. In fact, most of them stay for a long time depending on how severe the scarring is. Apply Vitamin E cream to moisturize the area. Moisturizers may even out the skin and keep the skin smooth. This may improve the appearance of...
Hi
This may not be something serious. In the absence of trauma, significant sexual history, pain and swelling in the area, then these may not require immediate intervention. Just continue to observe the skin condition. If the spot enlarges or changes in character, then you may need to have this assessed early on.
Hi
I saw one of the images. The bumps are red and they appear to involve hair follicles. These bumps may be a form of folliculitis. These may not be something serious. In fact, if you frequently shave the area, then this is likely to be contributory. Ingrown hairs may also contribute to what you have. Pseudofolliculitis barbae secondary to shaving improper...
Hi
This may be a case of fungal infection, dermatitis or eczema. Contact dermatitis may present with redness, itchiness on a localized area of the body. This may be itchy. If the area continues to be itchy, an itch scratch cycle may ensue and this may lead to an eczematous skin condition. I suggest that you have this assessed by your doctor. You may need t...
Hi
I would always suggest that you openly discuss your concerns with your physician. I understand that you may be embarrassed or conscious in certain cases but your doctor is a professional and has been exposed to similar cases during her training. She would be able to understand and give you proper advice on these. Openly discussing your concerns with you...
Hi
These may be hormone related. In the absence of other associated symptoms like obesity, darkening of the neck and the armpits, headaches and other symptoms, I do not think this is something serious. Your thyroid hormones and blood sugar levels are within normal.
Apply mild Vitamin E cream over the area to keep the skin smooth and even in those areas....
Hi
These spots may be explained by eczema. We may also need to rule out a fungal infection here if you have noted some scaling. Most conditions involving the lip may include fungal or bacterial infection. Dermatitic skin conditions may also be considered.
For how long have you been using your medications?
I suggest that you continue with the medicati...
