Eczema On My Hands - Spreading To Arms
I've got eczema on my hands, I've had it for several years now, it started off being a tiny patch, probably no more than 1cm by 1cm. Currently it's over the back of both of my hands and it seems to be spreading to part of my right arm.
I have been to the doctor three times and every time they've said it's eczema and they give me a steroid cream and instruct me to use aqueous cream or an emollient cream throughout the day (everyday). This however doesn't seem to help at all and i've told my doctor and he's said there is nothing more he can do.
Another thing is they're incredibly itchy (though I think I'm doing well not to itch them), they also seem to release this clear liquid (which is really reflective). Is there anything I can do about it?
Hidradenitis Suppurativa :: Spreading To Stomach And Arm
I was diagnosed with HS around 8 years ago but have had it for years. I am lucky because a friend suffers from it and said it looks the same. I asked for an appointment with a dermatologist who confirmed it.
Mine started on my upper inner legs, spread to my stomach and I now have a new one on my upper arm. I am concerned that it is spreading and wonder if anyone has any advice please. They are so painful and debilitating. All the doctor does is give me antibiotics and a couple of times has referred me to have recurring ones cut out by local anaesthetic. The surgeon said that because it has spread all he could do is tackle them one at a time. He did mutter about plastic surgery but really don't want that.
Skin Cancer :: Spreading Brown Spots - Nodular Melanoma?
Awaiting biopsy results, trying not to go crazy. Probably shouldn't be on the Internet.
I've had these spreading brown spots, about 1cm diameter on my lower belly. Several months ago, a crusty little tower rose up out of one of them, which itched and bled. I went to my dr, and he set up referral to derm. But then the crusty little tower turned into a smooth brown bump on one side of the spread-flat-mile. I figured I'd over-reacted, and cancelled the derm appt.
Next time I saw dr, he said I still need to see derm, so I reluctantly called derm and they were booking 3-4 months out. But, they had a cancellation in 2 days! I took it, but then forgot about it. Called to apologize, and lo, they had another cancellation in another 2 days! That time I didn't forget! My daughter said, mom, God must really want you to see the dermatologist. Maybe she was right.
At the appt, he ended up doing a full-body scan, to my relief, because I have many moles and can't see them all. He wants to remove the one I went in about, but he was really alarmed by a mole on my inner thigh that was completely off my radar. It was a dark brown dome, smaller than pencil eraser. He asked a lot of questions about it, and was able to get me back in for its removal last Friday. He said, I don't like the look of this at all! He said he was so glad to remove it. Now I wish I'd taken a picture of it!
My next appt is two weeks from last, where he'll remove stitches and the original mole of concern - which he said was often the case where a different mole at least brought you in, but wasn't the real bad one.
I don't think he was trying to scare me, and I'm not scared. I just want to know already. It's hard to take cancer seriously, in the form of a little mole.
On the other hand, I've been feeling really tired the past year, and especially lately. So now my mind says what if it's NM and in lymph nodes. But I haven't read anything to back that up.
STD :: Red Dots / Flat Bumps On Shaft
I'm 25, I have these very small red spots on my penile shaft that are not painful and do not itch. I kept picking at them and I couldn't tell if I "popped" them but one slightly bled and they are still there. They don't look like blisters or crusty. I know what herpes feels/looks like bc I got it on my face from wrestling in college. I also have what appeared to be chiggers around my ankles and knees and that has also spread throughout other places on my body such as my butt/waistline, bellybutton, and parts of my arm. Most of these have itch pretty bad, but some have not at all. My lymph nodes in the left side of my groin are slightly swollen and sore. I also had sort of a congestion thing too with a sore throat, but that seems to have subsided. However, I still feel pretty tired at times. I was freaking out about an STD, but when I went to the doctor he immediately said it looked nothing like an STD when he saw the spots and I was fine. They are spread out at least a half an inch and don't look clustered. He said it could be scabies or some kind of mite so he prescribed me antibiotics and prednisone which I started yesterday. The last time I was sexually active was about 6 wks ago with my girlfriend at the time, and she had been tested for STD's while we were together which came back negative. Does the doctor sound right on all of this and it's not something to worry about? I've been having other personal issues going on with family so this stuff is just kind of compounding on top of all that.2 hours ago-4 days left to answer. I also forgot to mention that my doc said it could also be folliculitis. The red dots on my penis have been there for about 3 days now. As far as the lymph nodes in the groin, I stay very active in sports and thought I might've stretched a muscle around there this past Saturday- not sure if that's the cause for them to be like they are.

View 1 RepliesBreast :: Discharge (small Brown Dots) In Bra?
I'm 15, had my period for 2 years. I recently noticed some strange, small orangey brown dots inside my bra where my nipple is located on my right breast, this has happened for around two weeks; the discharge was not in the bra before use so it has happened while I have worn it. About 5 months ago I went to hospital for a scan on my right breast as I found a lump, but they said it was just a fibre and not to worry, but now I'm quite worried about it. I haven't had sex and am not pregnant so I don't know what has caused this.

What does this all mean and does it have to do with the implanon, am I possibly pregnant?
Genital Herpes :: White Dots On The Shaft Of My Penis
So about a month ago I noticed these white dots that appears on the shaft of my penis that were flush with the skin (not bumps). About a week ago, I noticed that they have risen and turned into a cluster of little bumps and I'm afraid of it being herpes or maybe some other STI. I am very sexually active but with only one partner and I know that I am her only partner too. We use condoms about 80% of the time (she is also on the pill but can never be too safe). I would like to think of us two as very clean and hygienic people which is why I'm confused about what these small bumps are. They have given me no pain at all, in fact, I forget they're even there until I look at them.

I developed these tiny painless white/yellowish dots on the corners of my mouth. they're almost inside the lip and aren't noticeable unless I open my mouth and point them out. I also have some inside of my cheek. they don't hurt nor can I pop them and when I try to it still doesn't hurt. they don't ooze either. I should let you know I am a smoker and I barely brush my teeth (I have major depression and taking care of myself is difficult) I also gave oral July 21st these bumps popped up a week and two days afterwards. I was told that these were fordyce spots but I'm still a bit concerned. they're spreading to my bottom lip corner as well. also sometimes they expand about two size, turn white and then pop. also I kissed someone after it noticed these dots and he has no signs of anything that's happening to me.

Few weeks ago i noticed green dots of discharge from my nipple, I checked with my Gynae he said it is not normal however I did not ask further as he is a guy and I feel uncomfortable to let him check yet.
My Mother in law today asked me to start expressing milk, is it OK to do that? I heard expressing milk can cause preterm labor and I thought doing it during my 37week would be better.
Men :: Genitals Can Still Grow If I Am 17?
I'm wondering if my penis will still grow. I'm turning 17 in a month, and my penis is 6" long and 4.25" mid shaft girth and 4.5" base girth (small, I know). I hit puberty probably around 12 or 13, but I haven't finished yet. I also have seen very little to no growth at all since last year. I have some facial hair, but I am still told I have a "baby face". I'm in grade 12, but could easily pass for a grade 9 or 10. I have some noticeable chest and stomach hair, but not much. I have a decent amount of pubic hair and under arm hair. My voice isn't high pitched, but isn't exactly deep either. My size has been bothering me lately because my friends have been talking about getting laid and I'm afraid I'm going to get turned down because of my size. Also, seeing the kids sizes in the showers discourages me. I'd really like to know if I could still grow, maybe some people had similar experiences as me and grew.
View 2 RepliesDental Health :: Painless Raised Dots On Upper Mouth Corner?
I'm a 20 year old smoker who does an awful job at brushing her teeth. I've gone months due to my depression without taking care of my mouth but started brushing everyday since I've found these raised tiny dots on the upper corners of the mouth. they're a pale yellow and they're the size of a pen point, maybe even smaller. I also have a patch on both sides of the inside of my cheeks which recently spread to the corner of my bottom lip on the left side. they don't hurt at all, they don't ooze nor do they bleed or scab. I can't pop them either. when I first discovered them they would sometimes expand about a size or two, turn white and then painlessly pop. this has only happened the first four days they first appeared. it's been two weeks and if anything they have just spread. sometimes they even feel raised and a bit rough when I push my tongue to them then later in the day it will feel like nothing is there or back to their normal size. I was told these were fordyce spots but I am unsure due to their behavior. I know this isn't contagious because I made out with my partner when these first appeared and he's still fine. I also have a small clear sack on the inside of my cheek on both sides near my bottom teeth. can anyone confirm that these are fordyce spots? if they are what would you recommend. if not what could these little pests be?

View 3 RepliesHerpes :: HSV 1 On Genitals - Dormant Period?
On Friday, July 4 I had sex with my fiance of 7 years. The next day my vagina was incredibly sore, but that isn't uncommon as I am sensitive down there anyway. I didn't notice much that night, but the next night (Sunday the 6th) in the shower I felt a bunch of stinging. I looked down and saw 1 sore at the top of my labia.
I got out of the shower and saw a bunch of tiny blisters on my outer labia, and inside my vagina as well. It became more and more painful. The next day I went to the Dr. for some swabs. He told me he thought it was herpes but I thought - how?! - we have been together for 7 years, 100% faithful, and have only ever been with 1 person prior (my last relationship ended 8 years ago, and his ended 13 years ago).
My swab turned up positive for HSV1 - but I have never had a cold sore, and neither has my fiance. I'm just confused and don't understand how I can have this. Is it possible HSV1 could be dormant in either of us all this time? It just seems bizarre I had this happen so quickly after sex, esp when neither of us have ever had any symptoms of HSV.
The sores are SO SO SO painful now, I can't even walk or sit, really hurts to pee, and nothing seems to help. I hope now they have broken it won't take long to heal, but I am not familiar with HSV.
Does anyone have any insight, or maybe even some relief options for my pain?
Penis :: My Genitals Hurts While I Am In Toilet
So I woke and went to take a shower. Like usual the water made me pee and it stung really bad and now it hurts to piss. But jokingly I told myself that I broke my penis. Then I tried to get an erection and I can't do it and the lower part of my stomach hurts. The pain is right before my pubic hair. And my main concern is that I can't get hard and I'm only 16 what do I do.
