Hello,
Without examination, confirmation of a diagnosis is tough but it can be folliculitis, contact dermatitis, rash due to friction rub with clothes, dermatitis (atopic, contact, allergic),excessive sweating causing sweat dermatitis or balanitis (due to an underlying infection (bacterial and fungal as well as other organisms) .Even genital warts cannot be ruled out as it is spread through direct skin-to-skin contact during oral, genital, or anal sex with an infected partner.
ve developed a rash on the insides of my elbows.
Another differential is keratosis pilaris which may present as white pigmentations on the skin especially behind the arms .They may have a sand paper feel on them when you run your hand on the affected surface.
This does not sound serious. Just continue to observe this. It is necessary to rule out vitiligo here which is a stark white well demarcated patch of skin usually appearing symmetrically. At this point, I do not think this is your case.
My joy ended as soon as I got a boner, when I saw that wherever the dry crusty skin was, now the skin there was white. And there was also a red ring of skin at the very tip of the opening of my penis, that seems to grow with time. I went to see a doctor believing that I have vitiligo, and he just laughed at me when I mentioned it to him. Then I went to a dermatologist, It was the same deal, both of them thought that there was nothing wrong except that my foreskin was too long.
t understand how it is a minor skin change for your penis to become indented and to turn white. Any guy would notice such a big change. But your response suggest it is not a big deal. I suppose this is so because it is not happening to you. So you believe that it is normal for you penis to turn white? You have no explanation for that at all? My penis literally turns white when I shake it. I have brown skin. Are you saying that this is normal?
Hi there! I am asking about a skin rash or something that I have because I am out in the middle of the bush for work at the moment. I noticed about 6 days ago what I thought was a mosquito bite. It was red, raised and itchy. I forgot about it after a couple of days and then I noticed that it no longer looked like a mosquito bite. It had a small scabby centre (from picking the scab from itching) and then around it was red like a perfect circle. The skin wasn't raised.
Recently about a year ago ive started developing some sort of rash on my face which has become more frequent in the past 3 months. the rash is white bumpy (sometimes red when its chronic) flaky skin that feels rough on my face if i touch. if you look at me from afar my face looks normal however, if u highlight my face in white light you can clearly see bumpy, flaky, rough white rash. id also like to mention that the rash looks white because of flaky skin.
I have developed a sudden skin rash on feet and legs below the knees. It is a round white spot with a red dot in the center. It does not itch. I am taking coumadin and plavix. Is this a sign of bleeding under the skin? I have also started having red marks, some size of dots and some larger and brown "age spots" on my skin. Anyone have similar condition? I was told to stay away from vitamin K because this effects the coumadin and my pro time.
Hello,
From the symptoms it looks like an infection, chances of viral infection causing a viral rash the highest. Other possibility of such a rash is a bacterial infection like folliculitis or an allergic reaction. To confirm the diagnosis, you need to get an evaluation done from his pediatrician.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Pityriasis rosea is a common human skin disease which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash. The rash may be accompanied by low-grade headache, fever, nausea and fatigue and sometimes by itching.
No treatment is usually required. In most patients, the condition lasts only a matter of weeks or months(upto six months).
If the rash persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.
Psoriasis is a long-term (chronic) skin problem that causes skin cells to grow too quickly, resulting in thick, white, silvery, or red patches of skin. It is useful to apply a hand cream that offers barrier protection and moisturizing effect. Try to limit exposure of cold and wind to the hand. For exact diagnosis and treatment see a dermatologist. Hope it helps.
Best luck and regards!
Within a few days, the redness fades and a finely textured rash, sometimes referred to as a sandpaper rash, develops. The rash is caused by toxins produced by the streptococcal bacteria.
The rash and skin discoloration usually last for about three to seven days, at which time there may be peeling of skin around the fingertips and toes and in the groin area.

I have a rash on my right underarm that appeared about a week ago. It is mostly white but slightly red in places. It has started to smell really bad and not just a regular musty smell. The skin seems to be peeling off sometimes after I take a shower. It doesn't itch but it burns when I raise my arm or touch it. The skin is kind of velvety looking and there were no bumps at first but now there seem to be a few. It started out pretty small but now it covers my whole armpit.
Near my anus, it also looks like a rash - if my skin is pulled apart, there are tiny white dots surrounding my anus. The dots are very small (pinpoint) and lots of them.
I have an appointment with a specialist in March - is there any way to figure out if it's a rash or yeast infection or something aside from an STD? Or is it pretty certain that it's an STD?
Thanks.
Hi, i have my white spot on my legs and arms whenever im in a cold place ( airconditioned place) its flat and not itchy, I tried to use nizoral cream and trosyd cream for 1 month but nothing happened. It makes me embarass especially in our office because they notice the white spot/white dot and its like a fungal infection.
But whwn i'm in warm or normal place my white spot will not appear.What kind of disease is this? is their any treatment or natural way to get rid of this skin problem?
