My husband has a rash that looks similar to shingles. He says that it itches all the time. They turn really red in the bath and swell up. They are located on his upper back and on his arms.

The older I get, the more I can see my hair folicles (or whatever it is) on my legs - this means that even right after I shave them you can see tiny little dots on my legs, like the hair that is going to come out the next day. I really don't enjoy waxing my legs, nor can I afford to keep up with that. Is there anyway to reduce the visibility of this?

Also, what about scars? Is there somebody I can buy at say CVS that I can rub on to reduce that? I am very light skinned and I bruise like a peach. If I knick myself or get bit by a bug or any type of scrape... they all leave nasty looking scars even though I don't scratch or pick at my cuts.

Before anyone says it, I'm not anemic and I'm in perfect health.

Thanks!

This problem has to have been around forever. Does anyone have a remedy that they got from their grandmother? All the websites just want to sell you their products

For about a week I have had a red blotchy rash that only appears when I shower, but my arms and legs, where it always appears, are always itchy and sore. There is no visibal evidence of the rash unless I have just been in the shower. What an earth is this, and what can I do to make it better?

I used to have one "wart" on the bottom of my foot and one on my little toe. Neither hurt or had the chracteristic black specks, but they seem to be contagious (I now have 2 on my hand and the ones on my foot have healed). I know I should see a dermatologist but I don't have health care and am going through financial trouble.

Thers this wierd lump on my hand that developed over a few months. About 2 months ago, i fell hard on sand and pebbles&got a cut on my palm. After a few weeks, there was a scab and then completly healed. I thought it was fine and left it alone. I didnt realize it but it felt like a rock was in my hand. I realized it wasnt a rock and there was a blueish blackish dot visible on the hard lump. The dot got bigger then before. It stings a little wen i poke the dot but wen i poke anywere else on the lump, its fine. Can someone explain to me what this is, what can happen if i dont treat it and how can i treat it. thanks

When wet, my daughter's hair has a bad metallic smell on the ends. (She is 8.) The scalp smells clean, but even after washing, the metallic smell on the ends won't go away. My mom thinks it could signify a medical problem of some kind. Has anyone else ever encountered this problem? I may just cut off a few inches and see if it goes away, but if I can get rid of the smell, I'd prefer not to cut it.

It started when I was living in North Carolina around February or March of 2005. Its hard to recall but one day I noticed that the skin around my nose, mainly in the crack, was very dry, red, and scaley. I didn't do anything about it immediately. I moved to southern California in May of '05 and I assumed the climate could fix the redness. It didn't. I started applying the Aquaphor Extreme Dry Skin treatment everyday and everynight. It wasn't until last month when I realized a year and a half had gone by and it was still red. The scales are reduced a lot when the treatment is on but if I stop using it for a day it will all return. My cousin gave me an eye cream treatment for under the eyes and it seemed to start reducing the affected area but it's STILL NOT GONE! Slightly frustrating. I do stay in the sun a lot but why only my nose if the sun is the issue? The climate has no effect since I have moved back and forth many times since. Has anyone experienced the same thing? Any ideas?

I have this thick, dead skin that's developed between two of my toes, and now it's to the point that I'm in increasing pain in every pair of shoes I wear. Is there some way I can get free or low cost treatment with a podiatrist, or maybe some way I can get help with something over the counter to alleviate this so that I'm not on crutches due to this problem by the end of the year?

A friend of mine has psoriasis over 70% of his body. He rarely bathes (once every six weeks or so) and never showers, although he does wash his face and armpits every now and then. Needless to say, he smells weird - but I wonder just how much of a detrimental effect he's having on the psoriasis by not keeping his skin clean??

I have scars on my legs due to insect bites, scabs, etc. Im usualy not bothered by them but lately, I seem to be getting more scars. I was wondering if anyone uses any homemade cream/treatment to get rid of scars. Or maybe any recommended scar cream that is not too expensive. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I kinda have a weird situation. My husband has a cold sore right now on his lip, I have never had cold sores at all in my life either! But anyways... I woke up this morning with a red rash looking thing on the areas that he kissed that night. It started off on my neck area ( a bunch of red bumps ) then like a couple hours later my chin and lips broke out... Its like where ever he touched I have this awful looking rash thing. I have two blisters on my lip that hurt, and I know these arnt pimples at all. Does this sound like it can happen? This can spread to other parts of the body... its just weird its in the spots that he kissed, and no where else? Please help me out here.
Oh btw, thats the only places I have them. Im not worried about anywhere else... like gential herpes or something. I just have had these on my neck and face for like a day now.
