Avatar m tn ive had this for about a week now, and has not gone away .there is no pain and my testicles allways itch ,especially when they hit the open air what could this be ?
Avatar m tn This could also be due to dermatitis , eczema or folliculitis. But nothing can be said with surety without a clinical examination. You should wash the area and keep it clean, apply calamine lotion at the site and take some oral antihistamine or antiallergic medications like loratadine or cetrizine for your symptoms. You could also use an over the counter antibacterial cream like mupirocin till you see your skin specialist. Are you allergic to any specific substances?
Avatar n tn Topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or neomycin containing ointment are also useful.In case the symptoms persist then oral antibiotics may be needed.Pls consult a dermatologist in that case.Also then get sebaceous cysts ruled out. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Warm regards.

Avatar f tn found below the eyelid and is very characterstic identification for atopic dermatititis(atopic eczema).
Avatar n tn Ive had a red postule that is maybe half a centimeter in diameter for three months now in my pubic area. I originally thought that it was just an ingrown hair but i could never fish out any hair, ive tried to find any hair and there is nothing there. Also, it fills up with pus. It hasn't really gotten any bigger and it is the only one that i have. It doesn't hurt too much unless it rubs against something hard or i pop it.

Avatar f tn sores are caused by stress. not healing. on cephlexin 500mg for 20 days and mupirocin ointment. getting lots of sleep and getting better.
Avatar n tn I told him one or two of your readers recommended Bactroban mupirocin, but he dismissed that advice for the Lotrimin. I need to hear from more readers who have had success with Bactroban so I can convince him to prescribe if for me. Otherwise?? Help! Help!
Avatar n tn Hi, I have a rash in my left armpit that started out as small bumps then began to grow into scaly patches. These scaly patches then grew into patches that resemble a scab like if you scraped your elbow or knees (brownish in color and firm). Eventually, these would fall off leaving normal skin underneath only to have it happen again shortly after. I saw a dermotologist who said it looked like seborrhea and prescribed Clarifoam EF and Oxistat.
Avatar m tn 24 Year Old Male - In Good Health Many months ago I had started exercising at a gym. I went about 5 days in a row, used the treadmill, weights or bike there for at least an hour each day. I worked my *** off. I usually run at home, but I really started to go to the gym to lift weights and since I was there I worked hard on the treadmill too so I could do it all at once. A few days after going, I had noticed a few very small irritated spots on my abdominal area above my hips.
Avatar n tn I've had small red bumps in the fold and crease of my elbow for about a year now. It started out with very few on one elbow, and then gradually began increasing in amount. The sizes vary from the tip of a pen to sometimes the size of a bug bite. I've been to the dermatologist about it, and they told me they believed it was a virus. They gave me a certain gel to put on it and said that it would make it go away.
Avatar f tn This skin rash can be due to contact dermatitis, nummular dermatitis or ringworm (fungal infection). Nummular dermatitis is a sort of eczema and allergic reaction is an important cause. Ask your daughter to apply some calamine lotion on the rash. Also she should wear cotton clothes and keep the skin sweat free. If the symptoms persist then please get it examined from a dermatologist.
1616537 tn?1299369799 Recently, these growths(?), pimples(?), rash(?), eczema(?),appeared on my armpits.Previously, I have had similar ... things on the inner-part of my thigh,and those have been reoccuring for over five year.The biggest growth on my armpit, is the most painful, it doesn't have a white head, therefore for I can't pop it. Aside from this, it swells up. The swelling has gone down at lelast 30% since this picture was taken.
1245842 tn?1287830051 Oddly enough, the things that usually irritate this subtype of eczema are also on the list for Tyramine Intolerance. Information I read about Tyramine Intolerance links it to not only migraines but to IBS, so it is worth looking up Tyramine Intolerance, too. I mentioned this, since so many with FMS also have migraines and IBS.
Avatar f tn I have big ingrown hair problems on my inter thigh and and under neath my butt.because of shaving. i stoped I have these ingrown hairs for months now.They are fill with puss and the are hurt to touch. they go and come back in the same spots. i have pop a few before i knew what to do and they left dark marks so even if i was to try to pull out the hair by looking at it i can not see it. i have used hot steaming cloths to try and clear the dead skin cells.
Avatar f tn Accidentally, I sprayed mupirocin/Dextamethasone 5GM/45ML/0.1%, a compounded nasal preparation, in my eye. I rinsed the eye with water for about one minute. Eye has had 5 retina surgeries, has band kerapothy, and no lens. PCC told me it's ok because the mupirocin is also used for eye preparations. Correct?
