Hello friends.

I am Dr. Punit, practicing dermatologist in Noida. Toh hum aaj is weather mein sabse common problems ko discuss karenge of course it is a hot and humid weather but we will be discussing rather the skin problems which are the most common yani vo medical conditions jo skin par sabse jyada common hai. Ye sabse jyada common problems mein fungal infection sabse upar aate hai jo ki iss mosam mein sabse jyada badh jata hai aur ye scalp se lekar that means head to toe kahi par bhi affect kar sakta hai. To upar se shuru karte hai, sabse pehle scalp infection jo ki baccho mein bahut common hota hai jise hum tenia capitalis bolte hai and route of transmission is through pets usually those who play with pets ya who spend more time with pets so these might catch up this infection. Isme uss area ke baal dheere dheere khatam hojate hai aur ek bald patch develop hojata hai with effective medicines early phases mein agar hum theek samay par treatment shuru karte hain to yeh hair loss ruk jata hai aur hamare baal vapas aa sakte hain.

Doosra baki body ke skin par jo common infection hai jaise ringworm bolte hai. Isme body par ring shape ke patch aajate hai jisme thoda sa scales hote hai jaise ki aam bhasha mein hum bolte hai papdi hai aur isme mild to moderate yani thoda sa lekar kafi jyada tak itching hoti hai. Ye patches size mein aur number mein dheere dheere badhte rehte hain aur kayi bar ye puri body ko affect kar sakte hai. Those who sweat more are affected more often. Iske bad most common fungal infection is jock itch it is also called Tinea cruris and it affects the inner thighs, groin and buttocks yani ke vo areas jo ki exclusively covered rehte hain and due to the change of our attire jaise ki aajkal hum log tight denims pehente hain, V-shaped underwears pehente hai so ye jo areas hote hai yaha par sunlight nahi jata hai, air nahi jata hai toh inn areas mein sweat aksar lambe time tak rehta hai to yeh this is an ideal environment for any fungal infection so of course this is because of these environment this is the most common infections. Coming to the next feet isme we call athlete foot kyunki it is more common in athletes so we call it athletes foot.

It is the fungal infection of our feet isme bhi aap ki scaling hoti hai, patches hote hai aur itching hoti hai jo office goers hote hai, jo lambe time tak shoes or socks pehante hai unhe ye commonly infection hota hai. Iske baad hamare nails bhi affected hote hai iss fungal infection se. Pair ke nakhoon jyada common hote hai usme kya hota hai usually ek pair se shuru hote hai ye infection aur usme jo hamara angootha hota hai greater toe hota hai uske nakhoon mein thickening shuru hojati hai yani ki dhere dhere hume lagta hai ki hamara nakhoon mota ho raha hai jise ki hum aksar nailcutter se katte hai to katne mein pareshani hoti hai. Dheere dheere baki nakhoon bhi affect hona shuru ho jate hai.

Yeh sari conditions treatable hai agar hum sahi samay par inka upchar lein, you should consult your nearby dermatologist aur kuch preventive measures hote hain treatment ke alawa jaise ki hot and humid environment mein yeh conditions jyada hoti hain to uss environment se bacha jaye, din mein do baar shower liya jaaye, apne towels and socks ko regularly aapko disinfect karna padega, pets agar hain ghar mein toh aap unhe shampoo se wash kare, anti dandruff shampoos are available and keep your skin hydrated as well. Avoid sharing towels if you are already infected and sabhi jo aapko maine bataya ki scalp se lekar toe nail tak sari jagah affected hoti hai but inka treatment pattern aur treatment protocol hota hai vo alag alag hota hai jaisi ki agar hamara nakhoon affected hai to uske liye jo course hota hai vo almost 3 mahine ke aas pass hota hai ya isse bhi jyada aur jo hume results dikhte hai vo kareeb 6-9 mahine ke baad results dikhte hai.

Iske alawa groin mein jo infections hote hai which is called jock itch, yeh sabse common hai and it's very difficult to treat kyunki yaha par environmental conditions jo hai woh jaldi change nahi hoti hai to uske liye hume zaroori hai ki jab hum ghar par rahe to shorts ya boxers dheele cotton ke kapde pehne, hamare inn areas ko thoda sa dry rakhna chahiye, aapke jo regular inn kapdo ko disinfect karna chahiye like hafte mein ek baar sare underwears and jo bhi hamara towel hai unhe garam pani mein 30-40 minutes tak dooba ke rakhe and uske baad use sundry kare and fir iron kare. So, these are the different modalities to treat this infection.

Take care of your skin!

Hi,

I am Dr. Punit, today we are going to discuss the impact of summers on our skin and how to take the preventive measures for the acnes. So as summers are coming, we might have summer skin problems related to this weather. So most of the humans face acne vulgaris jise hum popularly mohase ya pimples bolte hain and it is the most common problem amongst the youth, adults age group. So this acne or pimples is a very wide variety of presentations from very tiny lesions called comatose or the open pores or closed pores to very big lesions which are called nodular cystic acne. So chote se lekar bade lesions tak hote hain aur inhi hisab se hum inhe acne ko grade karte hain and accordingly we treat acne as per their grades. So today we are discussing preventive measures rather than the treatment, hum sirf bachav ke tareeke aapko bataenge taki hum kaise bach sakte hai, kya hamare khaan paan me parheej hona chahiye, weather se hume kya bachav lene chahiye ya hume cosmetic se kaise bachna chahiye.

So let's start with preventive measures: the first preventive measure is washing your face kyunki summers mein we sweat more, hot and humid environment mein hamare sebaceous glands bhi bahut active hoti hain so hamara face bahut oily hota hai, along with the pollution this creates an ideal environment for acne or pimples. So we should wash our face frequently at least two or three times a day as per required even more. So hume bahut hi gentle face wash use karna chahiye so that ki jo bhi grease ya dirt aur sweat ya kuch makeup hamare face par jo ikhata ho jata hai use hum clean kar sake. Second, we should not wear the oil based foundations or some other cosmetics rather we should switch over to the cosmetics which are non-comedogenic and non-greasy in nature which means ki koi bhi aise cosmetics jo hamari skin ko oily karte hain hume avoid karne chahiye aur water based products use karne chahiye be it your sunscreen, be it your moisturizer.

Also, we use foundation which you know clogs your pores, to pores ko block karne vale foundations hume lambe time tak skin pe nahi rakhne chahiye especially when you are going to sleep hume use clean karke hi we should go to sleep. Second, we come to the hydration part we should maintain adequate hydration, hume pani ka intake apna badhana chahiye. The third thing is we should avoid high calorie foods especially the processed milk products ya jo diary products hote hain unhe hume avoid karna chahiye like chocolates, pastries, ice cream chuki acne ke piche ek bacteria pathology bhi hoti hai which is called propionibacterium acne, so the more calories we consume, the acne bacteria this bacteria will get more calories to grow. In some females who have mensus irregularity jinhe hormonal imbalance hota hai they should get checked from the gynaecologist.

Bahut si females hoti hain jinhe polycystic ovarian disease hota hai jisme ki jo androgens hoti hain, male hormones ya testosterone hota hai that goes high to that ratio is altered and unme male pattern features develop hone shuru ho jate hain. To sirf acne hi nahi, aapko male pattern hair growth shuru ho jati hai, chin ya fore locks pe ya side locks pe aapko male pattern thick baal aane shuru ho jate hain. Aise cases me acne bahut hi resistant hote hain, unhe theek karna thoda sa mushkil hota hai so hume PCOD ka test karana chahiye, apne gynaecologist se and we should get it checked and then consult all these problems from your dermatologist. Please home remedies avoid karein.

Thank you very much!

Hello everyone,

I am Dr. Punit Pratap, Dermatologist. So winters have come. It is a pleasant weather. We all love this weather. We go out, eat a lot, sleep a lot and what not. But since the moisture in environment comes down, in the winters, drastically so our skin becomes dry and dull. And this can lead to aggravation of many dry skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis and some other kinds of skin allergies. As we all know skin serves as a barrier and it protect us from the harmful effects of the external environment.

So when it becomes dry and dull the skin is more allergic to cosmetics, more allergic to thermals or the wollens and for that matter anything which you are using. So these skin rashes can leave some scars if left untreated. So there are some do's and dont's- kya karna chahiye, kya nahi karna chahiye.

Starting with some do's. Firstly, moisturise the skin using some moisturizer and since we all have different types of skin, so moisturisers we need might be different. For this, we must consult the dermatologist. Secondly, we should use very mild soap like Dove, Lux, Pears.

Thirdly, we should take adequeate hydration. Usually hum sardi mein pani kam peena shuru kar dete hain. It should not be like that. Now coming to the don't. We should avoid very hot water bath. Usually hum sardiyon mein bahut garam pani use karte hain. We should use lukewarm water. Halka gunguna pani use karna chahiye. If our skin is very allergic, we should not use deodrants and perfumes on our skin. We should use it on the fabric.

Next, agar hamara skin bohot allergic hai to hame fragnance aur paraben free moisturizer use karna chahiye. Next, we should not use very harsh soaps. We should use rather very mild soap. Lastly if the skin is very itchy and hyper allergy the the we should not be wearing thermals. It should be cotton. In case we develop some skin rashes don't self-medicate. Rather we should consult some dermatologist.

Thank you 

Hello Friends! I am Dr. Punit Pratap, dermatologist, trichologist at Dermanext Skin & Hair Clinic, Noida.

So, today I will be speaking about hair loss. We have almost 1-1.5 lakhs of hair. Among these, 90% of hair keep on growing. Rest 10% hair are in resting phase. So, whenever we have some adverse condition in form of medical condition or medical illness like fever, sore throat, cough, viral infection or in the form of surgical trauma, hormonal factors, we start using these hair which is almost a 10% of total count. We call this a pattern of hair loss. Usually this condition is transient. Once this condition is settled, we start getting back these hair.

This hair loss is the most common problem in females. Underlying causes are inadequate nutrition in form of anemia because woman loses their bloods at the time of menses. The hemoglobin is at the lower side. Apart from that the psychological stress, lack of sleep, inadequate nutrition. This condition is transient and when we maintain the nutrition, the underlying cause is ruled out. This means we get this hair back. So, in males the most common cause is male pattern baldness or we call it androgenic alopecia. Patient may notice the symptom of thinning in hair and converted into androgenetic alopecia. This condition is progressive. Patient may notice the baldness from front. It also takes into the shape of vertex and finally the crown. This condition is irreversible if we don't take any medication. And we eventually get bald for the period of time.

So, to start the best thing is to consult a dermatologist as your medications will be started. We start noticing the hair loss when we see strains of hair in comb or while waking up from the pillow or at the time of shampooing. It can be prevented if the management is good at little earlier. So, we have many other ways like oral therapies, mesotherapy, PRP and the treatment for alopecia which is the most advanced form of the hair loss. This can be managed by the surgical restoration or hair transplantation. So, nutrition is the most important thing usually in females. And the hormonal and genetic factors in males.

Please consult your dermatologist if you see hair loss. So, this can be prevented. Because losing your hair has also an impact on psychological factor. Thank you very much.

Hello Everyone

So, today we’ll discuss about hair loss and Alopecia usually we notice hair fall when we find many number of hairs in comb or while we wake up and on pillow or shower, these are the indicators of hair loss. One should be taken as alarming sign. Hair loss is not just two words, it cannot affect only your looks, it can affect your quality of life and your behavior. So there are many cause of hair loss, which of some are very important like your dandruff, your poor nutrition and underline medical condition and finally Anrdogemetic Alopecia. I will brief this late one and all these cause affect male and female equally.in males you will find the seeding hair like that means like here we call it temporal recession and it form an M pattern. Gradually it goes to the vertex and from their lead the ground. In female, we see the diffused hair loss, okay and we see the space while parting your hair or the thinning of ponytail. The good thing is hair loss is treatable in early middle and late stages. We have many modalities like oral medications, solutions, PRP, Mesotherapy, and finally, surgically restoration by hair transplantation. Dermatologists are the right answers to this problem as in dermatology, trichology is a part of dermatology.
