I've been noticing these random itchy swellings all over my body, like they can pop up anywhere from my head to my legs, even my lips sometimes. It got me thinking if it might have something to do with eating oily foods, because that's when it seems to happen more. I've been taking cetirizine or other antiallergics to make the swelling go away, but I'm a bit worried and trying to figure out what could be causing this. Could it really be linked to my diet, or is there something else going on here?

You can take it daily to help manage and prevent these allergic reactions. Additionally, try to identify and avoid the specific oily foods that may be causing these reactions.

View allMy mom has developed some extra skin growth on her finger I've attached a photo. I'm thinking surgery might be needed but I'm not sure which type of doctor to see in Bangalore. Can you suggest a specialist or hospital for this?
For a skin growth on a finger, a dermatologist is the best specialist to consult in Bangalore. They can accurately diagnose the growth, determine if it's a skin tag (a common, benign growth), or if further investigation (like a biopsy) is needed. If removal is necessary, a dermatologist can perform it in a safe and efficient manner.

I've been dealing with this skin issue in my genital area for the past two weeks. There are these red rings that are super irritating and burn a lot. Ive tried using creams like ringguard and beetex, but they didnt help. Any idea what I can do about it? It's starting to really worry me.
It sounds like you may be experiencing a fungal infection, such as a ringworm. I recommend trying an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole (brand name Lotrimin) twice a day for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antifungal medication like Fluconazole (brand name Diflucan) as prescribed by your doctor. Make sure to keep the affected area clean and dry, and avoid wearing tight clothing. If your symptoms persist, it's important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I've noticed some brown spots and patches appearing in my armpits. This has happened before and went away on its own, but now they've come back and are starting to spread to my other armpit. I'm really worried about it. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
Fixderma nigrifix cream for local application once daily for 3-6 weeks is advised to the patient, any allergic reactions pls consult dermatologist.
