hi. i notice on top of my head i only have a straight line of hair but on the sides 90 percent of it is gone. when i saw my primary care physician he told me this is totally fine and a lot of people who have it live long, healthy lives. when i saw a dermatologist, he told me i am paranoid and have anxiety and should be evaluated.
in reality i think its a serious problem i have. my friends all tease me and say im from the kkk and i look ugly. i dont want to wear a wig because my friends will tell others the wig is fake and might take it off and expose me.
i got kaiser permanente as a medical insurance
i notice alot of it when i shower.
alos my grandma keeps making jokes about it and its pissing me off. she tells me there is always a problem with me and why cant i be normal like other people and not have these skin problems.
hi i seem to go to bed and wake up with a load of whiteheads or spots around my mouth area, this is the only place i really get them, below the lips/ above the chin area, sometimes , it seems usually after shaveing or the couple of days that follow that i could go out and by the time i come back after 10 hours or something could have some whiteheads appeared
Alright..so..
Will the sun's harmful rays harm my skin even if I wear good sunblock? And can I still be very likely to get skin cancer? I'm very fair skinned but I want to run track. Does sunblock make a huge difference or should I just not run track this year?
need help getting rid of them
I have bad acne. I have been on prescription creams, over the counter topicals, antibiotics. Nothings worked. I think my acne may be hormonal bc I've always had really irregular periods. I am going on birth control in a week in another attempt to get rid of my acne. How long will it take to get rid of it all? Also is it true it gets worse before it gets better?
About a month or two ago I developed a mark that looked like almost a birth mark underneath my breast. I thought it was nothing but it still won't go away. It is oddly shaped and is a brownish color, and is pretty big for a birth mark. However, I haven't been worried about it since it hasn't grown, hurt, or rose. The mark is flat and has a few specks in it that looks like a scab but isn't.
i had my monroe piercing in for about 3 months and i only recently took it out and now there is old skin around it and it looks like a pimple, how can i get rid or that ? and what can i use as a natural remidy to provent scars ?
I just want to know if anyone have used proactive solution for acne then how it is, is it good,and from where i can order/buy it
Around the beginning of December, the skin on my hands, especially around my knuckles, became rlly dry. I figured it was just winter weather. So I tried to put cream on them but it didn't help. About a week later, I got red patches on my hands that wouldn't go away. And they got rlly itchy. Then i got little scabs and my hand would bleed. Burning sensation. Now, it's not as red, but the skin feels like elephant skin, rlly rough, and there's patches of light brown around my knuckles. Like my hands (especially my left) are all discolored. What is up?? Please help. :/
I was selling my plasma today, and the nurse forget to turn down the device that squeezes your arm during withdrawal. My arm lost all feeling and was turning purple, it was scary and very painful. I sat up to get the nurses attention. He ran over and turned down the arm squeezer and informed me that by me sitting up, the needle had shifted and the blood was being returned to my tissue, not veins. I now have two hard lumps on my bicep and tricep area, and my arm is too stiff too move. Does anyone know what this is called so I can research it further it's very painful and freaking me out.
I don't get them much. Mostly above my eyebrows. They are hidden under my hair.

I have a horrible canker sore in an awful spot in my mouth. It is on my cheek, tucked in that little crevice behind my gums and back molar (top left). I have tried orajel, canker cover, hydrogen peroxide mixed with water, baking soda and water, putting an aspirin directly on it, swishing with mouthwash, salt water, and salt directly on it and it will NOT go away. It's been over a week and I can barely talk, drink, eat or swallow. Does anyone have any other ideas? I am not going to buy anything else because I've already spent over $20 trying to treat this. I found that I have some Silver Sulfadiazine in my medicine cabinet. I have read you can put silver nitrate on it-could I use this as well?

To even out your skin
I live in Brampton, Ontario, Canada, and i have OHIP.
I just got a tattoo done on my upper arm that covers almost my entire upper bicep. This is my first tattoo so i have no idea how to deal with this. Recently i noticed that my arm started to break out pretty bad in and around my tattoo and I don't know what to do or how to deal with it. The tattoo is only 10 days old and its just the lining so far, and a lot of the acne is inside the lining.
I'm suffering from eczema in various places includign the area behind my elbows. I've noticed that it seemed to have been spreading but now it's a like a rash made of densely packed raised bumps that itches sometimes. NOw something off topic, I've been getting itchy bumps everywhere!!! I think it might be bed bug bites because if I check my shirt after I slept, I find blood. Now something completely off topic it's summer and howcome my wounds heal so slowly????
