Question 1

I have Fordyce spots, and its been really embarrassing for me. Ive done my research, so Im sure about the diagnosis, and now Im looking for a dermatologist in South Mumbai who can help with excising them. Does anyone know a good dermatologist who can do this procedure?

Accepted Answer

The treatment for Fordyce spots typically involves topical treatments such as Tretinoin cream or laser therapy. Tretinoin cream can be applied directly to the affected area once daily. Laser therapy, such as CO2 laser or pulsed dye laser, can also be used to reduce the appearance of Fordyce spots. However, it is important to consult with a dermatologist to determine the most appropriate treatment option and dosage for your specific case.

Question 2

Im dealing with alopecia barbae and Im wondering what the best remedy would be to treat it. How long does it usually take for it to improve?

Accepted Answer

Alopecia barbae, which is a type of hair loss that affects the beard area, can be treated with minoxidil solution. You can apply minoxidil 5% solution twice daily on the affected area. It may take several months to see significant improvement, and treatment may need to be continued long-term to maintain results.

Question 4

I have got dark brown burn patch over my upper lips area due to waxing which i did yesterday, can you please suggest an ointment through which i can get rid of this mark As early a possible.

Accepted Answer

I recommend using a topical antibiotic ointment like Neosporin to prevent infection and promote healing of the burn patch. Apply a thin layer of Neosporin over the affected area twice a day for faster recovery. Additionally, you can also use aloe vera gel to soothe the burned skin and reduce inflammation.

Accepted Answer

Allergic reactions to antibiotics like Amoxicillin can manifest as itching, swelling, and redness on the skin, as well as swelling of the fingers. It is important to stop taking MOX 500 and the painkiller immediately and seek medical attention. For the itching and swelling, you can take an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10mg once daily. If the symptoms persist or worsen, please consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
