Question 1

Accepted Answer

Doctor can examine: Rashes are difficult to describe in words. A primary care doctor or a dermatologist can examine a pimply rash to see what it might be. Sometimes folliculitis happens, and is caused by bacteria in skin follicles (where hairs grown out of). It can resemble tiny pimples on the limbs and body. Other causes include viral infections, allergies, autoimmune reactions, chemical irritants, hot tubs, etc...

Question 2

i have a rash that start off as a small pimple and evolves to look like a burn mark. it's on my  legs, waist, arms(severe) and neck. what can this be?

Accepted Answer

Exanthems (= rashes): such as yours are often impossible to diagnose with out the MD having the advantage of " laying eyes on it." Photos of good resolution can help but won't supplant good clinical evaluation. There are so many possibilities it wouldn't help anything to try to narrow down with such little information. On the other hand, a good dermatologist usually can nail it in a few minutes in person.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

See a dermatologist: No one can tell you specifics without being able to see the rash. See a dermatologist.

Hives: could be a reaction to something you ate or a medicine you took, or most often no known reason, ? exposure to a virus, at any rate that would go away on its own, to control the sypmtoms OTC antihistaminic would be helpful as well as anti itch cream OTC too, please watch for any lip / lid swelling or shortness of breath, if that happens, please seek medical attention, good luck

i recently developed strep throat and around the first day i had it i was in a pool and i broke out in hives all over my waist, knees, arms, and thighs. (im a swimmer and rarely go a week without being in a pool and this has never happened before.) the s

Accepted Answer

Drug reaction: I presume that you were given an antibiotic for your strep throat.  If this is the first time you took this kind of abx, you may develop an allergy to it in about 10 days. However if the hives occur only when you are in water, it is called aquagenic urticaria for which pre-medication with an antihistamine may help.  Note that if cold water is the issue ,  you need to see an allergist.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Losing Weight: Eat healthfully. Try to eat at least 5 servings of vegetables &amp; 4 of fruit per day. Increase nutritional fiber.  Avoid refined sugar &amp; junk carbohydrates.  Avoid alcohol, sweetened juices, soda &amp; caffeinated beverages.  Aim for 7.5 to 8 hrs of sleep / night. Hydrate w at least 64 oz of water / day. Calories burned must &gt; calories consumed.  Do both cardio &amp; weight training.

Question 10

the day after making love with my partner, my body hurts (legs, arms, waist, neck). what should i do in order to avoid it?

Accepted Answer

Slow it down: It is great to have fun but if you are hurting the next day you may be overdoing it as far as time of intercourse or positioning (are you trying all 100 kama sutra positions?). Sex should be fun and not necessarily hurt the next day! pick a comfortable spot too (not the closet or kitchen counter unless you want to...), so it's your call!
