Hi,
There could be several causes of these white spots. It would be best to consult your doctor with your parents to find out the cause in your case and plan the further management accordingly.
Some of the perceived causes are emotional stress, hereditary factors, worms, sunburns and physical illness. This skin condition can be aggravated due to diseases like hyperthyroidism, diabetes mellitus, pernicious anemia and Addison's disease.
Human iPSCs can be generated from various tissues, including skin, blood and liver cells. For the study, Prof Jang and colleagues generated human iPSCs from a variety of adult human cells, including liver cells, bone marrow stem cells and skin cells.
Next, they chemically induced the iPSCs to differentiate first into immature and then more mature liver cell types.
genital warts, hand warts and verrucas on the feet. The different types prefer different types of skin (e.g the harder skin on the foot for verrucas and softer skin in the mouth for mouth warts). HPV is usually transmitted through skin to skin contact. Therefore if you were to catch a HPV type from an infected person, the same part of your body would have come in direct contact with the same part as the other person's body.
A few days ago, I noticed a dark patch of skin on my foot. It is dry and feels harder than the rest of the skin on my foot. It doesn't itch or hurt. Does anyone have any idea what it could be? Would it be best to see a doctor or wait a few more days to see if it clears up? Any help would be appreciated.
I also have a dime sized spot in the same location on my other foot. Same symptoms. The spot on each foot is darker in color. This problem showed up about a year and a half ago. I haven't worried about it much because a doctor gave me a cream (it didn't work) and didn't seemed concerned about it. I didn't trust her opinion because it has to be something. It just wouldn't show up. Recently someone said those sypmtoms could be a sign of cancer. Is this true?

Fungal infections of the human body are very common, and are often quite bothersome. One such example is a condition known as tinea versicolor, a superficial yeast infection that produces white spots on the skin that are difficult to remove.
In addition, consistent and correct use of latex condoms reduces the risk of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including diseases transmitted by genital secretions, and to a lesser degree, genital ulcer diseases. Condom use may reduce the risk for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-associated diseases, e.g., genital warts and cervical cancer.
At the age of 75 how long will it take to regenerate the cells of a broken bone in a foot?
Hello,
It can be a plantar wart or a corn on the foot. Warts are tumours or growths of the skin caused by infection with Human Papillomavirus (HPV).They are contagious when in contact with the skin of an infected person. They can be transmitted. For small warts several medications(like podophyllum resin, Podofilox (Condylox), Trichloroacetic and bichloroacetic acids, Imiquimod 5% cream and interferons) are available, which can be applied directly to the surface of the warts.
Even a mouth kiss could transmit lot of virus and it is life threatening, skin to skin contact is dangerous then how do this world move with lots and lots of sexual activities. If we are having disease then we should assume our self lucky.
No sexual activities are safer and it has one or other way of contracting diseases. What to do then..
Hi,
IT could be a very mild case of Athlete' foot or Tinea pedis.It is a parasitic fungal infection of the epidermis of the human foot. The term "athlete's foot" refers to the disease and not the organism (fungus) that causes it. Several different fungi, called dermatophytes, can cause tinea pedis.
The fungal infection is often treated with topical antifungal agents, which can take the form of a spray, powder, cream, or gel.
I was reading some of the leg rash skin problems. Seems that people are mostly on treatment when it happens. I am not on treatment yet but I have had a reddish purplish discoloration on my lower legs for a couple years. Doesn't itch, sometimes warm to touch, sometimes swollen. I also have a splotchy red looking rash on my upper arms. Doesn't have any symptoms. When I get overheated (several times a day) the redness on my legs and arms get worse. I have consulted a dermatologist.
DO NOT tell doctors what you think may be wrong with you. I was told it was a skin infection because my left foot was turning bright red. It was ice cold to the touch (first clue). After months of pain and terrible sores (second clue), I demand to see a vascular doctor. After a Doppler Ultrasound, they found multiple blockages. I have had 6 or 7 angioplasties and going in again next month for more ballooning. Because it was not caught right away, I have 24/7 chronic pain.
In addition, consistent and correct use of latex condoms reduces the risk of other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs), including diseases transmitted by genital secretions, and to a lesser degree, genital ulcer diseases. Condom use may reduce the risk for genital human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and HPV-associated diseases, e.g., genital warts and cervical cancer.
I have this clear skin covered pocket on the ball of my foot it's been there for months we thought it was a wart and we went to the health center to have it frozen which they did well come to find out it was not a wart and it was a human hair caused from me cutting hair for work shoved straight up into my footI have the worst feet in history at least it feels like some days from the arch to the ball of my foot it hurts extremely and is very sensitive to the touch.
A plantar wart (also verruca plantaris or verruca) is a wart caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) occurring on the sole or toes of the foot. Plantar warts are generally harmless and self-limiting, but should be treated to lessen symptoms (which may become painful)."
Does that mean that anyone who has had a plantar wart has HPV and is contagious? Is this the same as genital HPV?

What foot diseases can I possibly have? My symptoms are peeling in the toes, a little only on the soles with no itch. The peeling is not in any shape (like crater form), it's just peeling. What could this be? Could it be pitted keratolysis? I've been researching about foot skin ailments and I've seen pictures actually but I don't think it's pitted keratolysis since the peeling isn't craterlike.
