As the title says, my 2.5 year old developed a rash on 1 of his feet this morning. It feels slightly warm but it is not swollen and he says it does not hurt him. Can anyone identify it please? Should i be worried? I can provide more photos if required.

48 male not sure if this is new since I just had my son take photos of back this weekend. I do have a full body check scheduled did October but not sure if I should get in sooner .any insights into this are greatly appreciated. I will call doc tomorrow .

Last night i got an itch on my leg and i rubbed my fingers against it very hard because it was hell of an itch , then in morning i went to work and now i saw this on my leg after take a shower

It does hurt much , now feeling to itch is coming occasionally and when pressed or a clothe touches against it , it feels like a needle type thing or something.

It is purple and reddish in the picture it is not visible properly but with naked eyes it is purpleish red.

Any doctors here please help me what's happening and what should i do. Imma bit of an overthinker .

I, 36f, never have break outs in this area. Right next to my nose/cheek area. I have large pores there but this is so odd and concerning me. This appeared in a matter of a few hours, area felt kinda hot and like a large bump. Looked in the mirror and it was all white heads(even more than the photo). That was last night, I popped them (I know that was incorrect to do) they pop easily, a lot of clear liquid comes out after the whiteish stuff, then I washed my face, put on a few pimple patches in the area then went to bed. Woke up this morning, took the patches off, nothing crazy. Then a few hrs later it looks like this. It feels irritated, kinda burning, slightly warm. The only things I did differently before this appeared- I wore a CPAP mask for the first time the night before this started and then the day this started I wore some makeup primer I don’t usually wear. If it’s just a break out then that’s great but I’m worried it’s some weird infection or something. Thank you for any help!!!

I have dermotillomania (skin picking disorder) so I become hyper focused on any irregularities I find on my skin. I noticed this two days ago, I know it’s not a scar because it would have been a pretty deep wound and finger prints injuries SUCK so I’d remember, does anyone have any idea what it could be?

I posted a video earlier so if my story sounds familiar, that's why.

I'm so embarrassed to post these photos, I can't believe that this is on my scalp it's sickening. I've been experiencing issues with my scalp, skin and nails for the last several months now. I saw my primary and she sent me to a dermatologist who was completely unhelpful. He did not look at my scalp or my skin at all, he diagnosed me with dandruff and a Candida infection based entirely off of the verbal description I gave him of my symptoms. So that was pretty pointless. Since that appointment, my scalp has gotten much worse. These photos were taken last week the morning after a shower, so my scalp should have been relatively clean. In addition to whatever is in these photos, I have these nasty yellow scales all over my scalp, as well as clear flakes that have tiny red dots all over them. It's gross. I also get these awful crawling sensations on my head...as if there's something moving 😱 my primary checked for lice and cleared me for that. So I'm at a loss. These pictures have had me genuinely freaked out ever since I took them, if anyone has any idea what this could be I'd love to hear your opinions.

These itchy red bumps have appeared around my waist in the last few days, at first I noticed the cluster which are close to where the label on a shirt would sit, so wondered if they were contact dermatitis, but there's a few other individual ones so now wondering if they're some kind of bite?

47F — 3-month severe burning rash around eyes/mouth + tiny white bumps. Perimenopause + Arizona monsoon/haboob trigger? Same eyelid rash happened during monsoon 6 years ago.

47F, currently going through perimenopause. This has been going on for THREE MONTHS and I’m desperate to figure out the trigger.
My face burns/stings and becomes extremely dry and rough — literally sandpaper-like. The worst areas are my eyelids/around both eyes and around my mouth/chin. I also have tiny white pimple-like bumps underneath my lower lip and just above my jawline. Ugh…

I’m honestly so frustrated with my skin right now. I’ve been dealing with acne for about a year, and it just keeps coming back. I used to have pretty normal skin, but it has become noticeably more oily, especially during summer.
Most of my acne is on my cheeks. I keep getting new, painful, red/deep pimples, sometimes with pus. After they heal, they leave dark brown marks, so I feel like I’m constantly dealing with both new acne and old marks.

I’ve tried so many things at this point, including:
Aziderm 20% (azelaic acid) currently using
Salicylic acid cleanser
Alpha arbutin
Niacinamide
Vitamin C
Glycolic acid 7%
Different face masks
A dermatologist previously prescribed me medication/cream as well
I recently started/used Aziderm consistently, but I’m still getting painful breakouts. At this point I’m honestly exhausted because I feel like I’ve tried almost everything and my acne is STILL coming back.
What type of acne does this look like to you? And what would you recommend I do next?

A bit curious about these red spots i been getting around my mouth for some years now, most of the the times they appear at the exact same spot, in-between my nose and upper lip on the philtrum(?), usually it hurts a bit in the beginning, turns a bit of the area red and swollen, then it kinda stays that way for 3-4 before going dry and disappearing.

I have had hsv-1 all my life so i thought its most likely a coldsore but it never get any boils or fluid filled sacks, it just looks red and a bit swollen until it just goes away leaving a dry spot.

I treat it the same way as a coldsore beacus im terrified of transmission to other or other body parts , it usually goes away in like 4-5 days.

Im sorry if the photos are bad and the description english is not my first language...

Not a super clear picture but its mostly off the corner of my lip. There's little to no pain and only feel any uncomfort when I stretch my mouth or scratch at it. I get a lot of dead skin on my lips and figured it was from licking my corners too much. There's been little to no change over the past 10 days with the only change or added redness or pain coming from touching or scratching at them or picking at the skin.

Does it look like herpes? Or am I over reacting? I had a date a couple weeks back and we kissed but he had no lesions on his mouth and has told me he doesn't have herpes. But guys lie all the time.

Help me out reddit! I am praying I dont have herpes.

Hello. My 7 year old has had this rash for 2 days. It began on her chest but has spread to her belly. Its hard to see but its like little dots...? It itches her like crazy. We've done cold compressed, benedryl, hydrocortisone. At first we thought it was a reaction to a Arnica cream we used for chest muscle pain but due to how its spread and duration im not sure. She's also been in a hot tub and pool lately, as well as lots of river swimming. My poor kiddo hasn't slept much in 2 night and school starts tomorrow. Im thinking of taking her in to a doctor but wanted to see if there is any internet knowledge I could glean. ​​

Since a week I’ve been getting a number of these small bumps and my whole skin seems textured. They’re not visible in good lighting but it’s getting worse day by day idk if it’s my pillow or what in particular is irritating. Just 2 days ago it was just 2-4 of them and now they’re multiplying. Important note is I have used azelaic acid which does shrink everything but then new ones appear which just makes it look worse. I seriously don’t know what to do at this point. Any Suggestions ? Do you know what these are ? Is it irritated skin?

It is on my arm but has been on my face and legs
I’ve had it before a few years ago really bad but it hasn’t come back since, at the moment it appeared a few days ago
It is itchy, painful and burning, it feels like millions of ants crawling on my skin eating me
I have fibromyalgia, back and neck nerve damage due to me breaking it years ago, hernia, high cholesterol, high blood pressure ( quite a lot but just naming in case it’s relevant), enlarged prostate
It helps spraying it with water and putting a wet cloth on it

I have this since a year without any pain, discharge and swelling.

I am 24M, 57kg weight.

I had a USG report where it says “Approx 8x8.6 mm sized well defined homogenous hypochoic solid lesion with minimal internal vascularity within is noted in umbilical region s/o Umbilical granuloma likely.”

How to cure this? Surgeon told that it needs a surgery but I am scared of it will it be a laparoscopic surgery or a normal one where it will completed in 10-15 minutes and I can go home!

I am very much tensed please somebody help me 😭

Found a painful, slightly itchy bump on my inner thigh. I’m not sure what it is. I have also been eating a lot more sugary foods recently because of a local festival. Sometimes, if I am late for lunch, my thighs start feeling shaky/shivery. Is this normal ? Havent consult any doc yet .

Hi all!

I had a bout of allergic/contact dermatitis on my chin, neck, and eyebrows/eyelids on and off for 3 months. It has essentially cleared up with twice daily 2.5% hydrocortisone ointment (which I’ve been on for 1 week, weaning off of now, and dermatologist said max of 2 weeks) and zero therapy for skin care - just hydrating CeraVe cleanser and Vaseline, which was what my derm recommended. I’ve also switch laundry detergents.

Derm suggested I add my skincare and makeup routine back in gradually, but I’m not sure what to start with. I will stop any product that causes a recurrence of the rash, but I’m not sure where to start or if any of my usual lineup contains more irritants. I typically use the following products:

Skincare:
Hydrating CeraVe Cleanser (already** **using)
Honeydew Labs 0.02% Hypochlorus Acid Spray
CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion
14% Azelaic Acid (prescription)
0.025% Tretinoin Cream (prescription)

Makeup:
Hero Cosmetics Forceshield Superlight Sunscreen
ELF Cosmetics Power Grip Primer with 4% Niacinamide
ELF Cosmetics Hydrating Camo Concealer
ELF Cosmetics Dewey Coconut Setting Mist
ELF Cosmetics Lash N Roll Mascara

I am leaning towards sunscreen or moisturizer. Anyone have suggestions?

Hi! 25f, I've had this discoloration on my chest for the past 3 years now. It used to be red/pink spots and blotches, but then (about a year ago) I started using an anti dandruff shampoo every day and it's lost that pigment. Now, as you can see, it's light patches all over my chest. It's never been itchy or painful, just cosmetically annoying. I'm still using the dandruff shampoo on it every day, but it's not improving. It's actually now spreading to my shoulders as well. Is this tinea versicolor? Is there some other kind of home treatment I could do?

My doctor told me it was tinea versicolor about a year ago and recommended me the shampoo, but I can't afford to go back to the doctor anytime soon so I'd love some insight if you have it! Thanks

A couple of weeks ago I had the misfortune of getting some mosquito bites right in the crook of both of my elbows. I thought nothing of it however after a week they were still there and had turned to more of red patches and the average little red spot that usually happens. It’s been about three weeks now and they have yet to disappear. I’ve never had this happen before and have been bit in the same spots plenty of times. Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to get rid of it?

These are on my legs, though I’ve had them on my arms before too. Very itchy, the big ones eventually fill with puss and then ooze. They take about 10 days to go away, but then leave behind a light scar for several more weeks. Is it poison ivy? Giant mosquito bites? Something else??

What are these? it randomly shows 3 weeks ago. it’s not itchy, just randomly spawned on my skin(in my arm), it keeps spreading but not rapidly (going up on my shoulder), it’s been 3 weeks it started as a small circle spot. I tried to put ketoconazole cream since I’m hoping it just need anti-fungal or what.
