Avatar f tn But he continues to eat things that causes him to break out. His skin is so bad that the damage is on his back leg thighs and palm of hands. He doesn't understand that it can only get worse. Sometimes it even seems as if he has some type of skin infection going on. Anybody familiar with this type of situation. How can I get his skin back to normal. He agrees to stop eating put and eating foods tac the is allergic to. He claims he has eczema but I don't believe that's eczema.
Avatar n tn Recently I noticed a very rough, bumpy texture on my penis head (glans). The bumps are dispersed everywhere on the head but appear to be more densely concentrated at the top of the head lining the bottom portion (away from the meatus, in other words). I could almost call them "scales." They definitely have a bumpy texture. The underside of the glans is much smoother and more "normal" looking and feeling.
Avatar n tn Hi, i wrote that question about the rash on my thigh that i had since i was young, and u gave me some advice, i have to say it was very helpful, but the thing is that i don't have eczema, i never had it nor any other medical illnesses but the usual (cold, flu) etc, rarely..
Avatar n tn hello guys! 2 questions! 1. The other day I got some semen on my hands which have eczema. My eczema do itch and I do scratch them very often. But eczema don't itch all the time. when the semen got on it ,it was not bleeding, it looked like intact skin with very red rash on it. So,my question is, is this kind of no-bleeding eczema showing only severe rashes the same as intact skin?
Avatar n tn I have severe itch on my penis. I have tried a lot of medicines. but none resulted good. I have a lady friend who is a dermatologist. but can i show this to her. or do they only treat females?
Avatar m tn I've been diagnosed with eczema on the underside of my penis. 1% hydrocortisone seems to make it worse. What would be an alternative, milder treatment?
Avatar n tn However, this is such a sensitive part of his body I have been very nervous about what I am doing. Any suggestions on treating eczema on this part of the body? Thanks.
Avatar n tn I was using Nystatin and it seemed to get better, then it returned even worse. The cream seems to do little for it now. I got eczema on my knuckle last year and it finally cleared up. I assume this is the same thing. It is red and raised. It almost looks as if the hair follicles are what is red and raised. The only reason this concerns me is because I was burned badly in this area in 2002. I never went to the Dr. for the burn although I was told it was a severe 2nd degree.
Avatar f tn Am I over reacting, is it safe for them to use chapstick on eczema, or is it further hurting the condition? Please help me so I can pass correct information on to my parents, since they choose not to listen to me! Thanks!
Avatar m tn about 2yrs ago I developed a rash on my one foot.I want to the Dr and he said is was a rash and gave me an antihistmine tablet and some cream.The second time I went to the Dr he said it was eczema and gave me more cream. Both my feet is now covered in scab and I'm to embarresed to go and see a Dr .It itches a lot ,especially at night,and sometimes I stratch it until it bleeds. I'm am extremely anxoius with summer coming up as the mark on my feet draws a lot of negative attention.
Avatar f tn this issue also began on my LEFT thumb and now the lesions alternate on different fingers (on my RIGHT hand) with each occurrence. I think she might have been mistaken, to be honest, but Im doubtful. I have not done any healthcare professions and my fiance (who Ive been with for almost 5 years) has not had ANY skin disturbances anywhere.) Sometimes there's spots where it itches like some might pop up, but never does.
Avatar n tn since around last summer i developed almost a rash ony myt scrotum, when my groin is cool and dry it doesnt bother me, but when i start to sweat my scrotum starts to get sensitive to my underwear and it starts to get red and itchy, ive used store bought jock itch spray and it works untill i run out. also i have little white bumps on my scrotum where my hair folicals are. any answers on these things would be helpful. This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.
Avatar m tn I was hoping to hear of other potential treatments or medicines. I can handle the eczema elsewhere with the topical steroids and moisturizers. It's just that the eczema on my scrotum is so much more severe and flares up immediately after sex.
Avatar n tn So, record your temperatures, on a two hourly basis to detect an evening rise of temperature. Please check with your doctor to rule out these conditions. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Avatar n tn Hello, for a few months now a rash has been developing on my arm. At first i thought that it would eventually go away on its own, but instead it seems to be steadily growing (although at a slow pace). It consists of small bumps that are the same color as my skin, and grows in little patches. At first I thought I might be developing a ringworm, but it isn't raised like one. It also isn't itchy unless I'm out in the sun and sweating a lot. Then it seems a bit agitated.
Avatar n tn Hi, I have a rash that appears mostly in the summer months. It appears on my knees and ankles mostly but can also be seen on legs and feet. It's raised red spots which appear to have white around them. It has come back every year for about 6 years. I live in Ireland so the climate can get warm but not very warm and not very often. When i get to the doctor it has disappeared. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Avatar n tn it is actually on my back). I found a photo on a rash photo search on the internet which is attached here. It hurts and doesn't itch. It isn't herpes simplex; my doctor just had me get a blood test for this and it was negative. Besides, I've never heard of herpes simplex causing a rash on a persons back and nowhere else. What might this be?
Avatar n tn i went to the dermatoligst and he said i have eczama but theres pink round circles on my palms that look like ringworm and funny round spots on my fingers he said i had eczema and gave me dexamethason and fluocinonide cream0.
Avatar n tn I'm not sure what this is related to but I at times get little small bumps on my index finger and sometimes it spreads to parts of my hand and index finger. I'm not sure if its herpetic whitlow or some form of herpes or just maybe a skin rash or wart. I have been having this issue for about 12-18 months now but it occurs when I rub my finger against a ruff surface.
Avatar n tn That's exactly how my eczema started. I had patches on one eye after about 3 months of moving to Los Angeles. (Is it the dryness? Dust?) And then, it turned so horribly bad, I saw three doctors. The second one gave me steroids, it went away insanely quick, and then came back, worse than it was before. The third one gave me Elidel. It's not a steroid, and it works. There is still a little eczema on and around my eye, but I can live with it (though I hate it.
Avatar n tn I did go to my GP like a year ago for this and now i have another little red spot on the glans of my penis. The GP said the first one was a blemish from some sort of friction. I was still concerned and had an STD test and it was negative. This bump looks the same as the one before and has been with me for around 6 months. I was just wondering what your diagnosis on this might be? I dont think its an STD but still concerned.
Avatar m tn But I would see a dermatologist. It may interfere with your psoriasis. Anyway, this is my take on it all. Oh and if it is eczema, I also hear that taking a bath with a few drops of bleach works. I don't know why and it is counterintuitive but the nurse next door said this should work. I haven't tried it. I would find out for sure what it is. I have to see what folliculitis looks like.
Avatar n tn Thank you for your care and responses!! Any idea on the causes for dyshydrotic eczema on finger I am 41 yrs with no skin problems??
Avatar f tn Well i don't believe it's eczema or anything. I did a bit of research and i think they're more like boils (absesses?).
Avatar n tn Hello, I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be dyshidrotic eczema. Wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used, whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid.
