Question 3

3yo daughter had swelling of the lip and rash reaction to peanuts. what is the best treatment option - avoidance or desensitizing?

Accepted Answer

Avoidance: In my experience, centers that do advanced desensitization for nut allergies do not offer the procedure under 5 years of age. In the interim, an allergy action plan including an epi pen and frank discussions with all day care or child care personnel needs to be in place.

Question 4

Question 5

upper lip rash dry upper lip?

Accepted Answer

Some thoughts...: Persistent chapped lips may be lip eczema, which can be treated like skin eczema, using hydrocortisone cream, plus Vaseline or Aquaphor to moisturize. Sometimes, lipsticks or lip sunscreen chemicals are causing an allergic reaction on the lips. Other times, a person is a primary lip-licker (it&#x27;s his habit). Once cracked, lips get irritated by routine foods and juices. A doctor can sort things out.

Question 6

what can i do for this bump on upper lip & rash on back of calves?

Accepted Answer

Need to identify: what the bump is what is the type of rash on the calves -to recommend treatment. Dermatological evaluation would help with that.

Question 7

reoccurring  upper lip rash from 2 months. there are very very tiny bumps without any fluid.after 2 days i see a white patch. is it oral herpes?

Accepted Answer

Most likely it is.: What you are describing most likely is HSV type 1... it is not sexually transmitted, and is present in plenty of people. You can just wait and it will go away. Alternatively you need to let a dermatology look at it, and they may diagnosed it without any lab work.

Question 8

my husband has a rash on his head that looks like psoriasis what is the treatment for this please (it's been bleeding) thank you?

Accepted Answer

Rash on head: There are several conditions that can cause a rash or skin peeling on  the head. If it is localized over a specific area it could be due to psoriasis. If it is associated with hair loss it could be due to fungus. If it is widespread it could be due to seborrheic dermatitis.  It is useful to use shampoos such as head and shoulders, Nizoral (ketoconazole) and tar shampoos.  Topical steroids can also help.  See MD

Question 9

i have a rash on the corona of my penis and the head. i've been treating as a yeast infection i was just wondering what arevthe signs of the treatment working?

Accepted Answer

Rash goes away.: If the medicine works, the rash will go away, usually within 10 days.  If you have not seen any improvement  after three to five days, get seen by a doctor to be sure you do have a fungal infection.  There are other causes of rashes besides yeast. If you have had unprotected sex, get checked for std's.  Also, avoid scented products and harsh soaps/detergents/fabric softeners. Don't over-scrub.

Question 10

i have a rash on the head and around the rim of my penis. no itch. no skin raised. mild soreness. i think it might be a yeast infection? treatment?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: Genital skin problems are quite common and there are too many possibilities to make even an educated guess. No STD is a likely cause of such a rash, but that's about all that can be said. See a doctor -- and avoid any self treatment before you are seen, which could make diagnosis more difficult.
