What are these red marks on my feet? ...These black dots on my face?!


Question: I'm a 15 year old male.

Red Marks:
I have red marks on my foot. There are a few scattered ones. Only on one foot though. It's been worse before. They are pretty big, and they hurt a little when I touch them. They look like giant infected pimples. I only get them occasionally, and they are red. Any ideas what these are? And what can/should i do about them?

Black marks:
Right where 'the angel touched me, under the nose', I have small pin-sized black dots. Painless, and small. There are a few on my nose, too. They don't bother me, but I would like to know what they are and what they do. A little hair is growing there also.

The black marks sound like black heads. Get some facial scrub, medicated for acne control. This stuff bleaches towels and clothing so be careful. Apply on your face, just before showering to avoid clothing/towel contact. Your mom will appreciate that!

The red marks need to be seen by your doctor or school nurse. Sounds like an infection or a skin irritation of some sorts. These things can spread and get more infected. Many locker rooms and sports like wrestling spread this stuff.

See your doctor or school nurse.

Best to you.

scary

feet: mold
face: moles

I'm not so sure, but you might seek some medical advice. go and talk to your doctor.

black marks: probably growing a mole (ew no offence) and red marks, just scratches. they'll go away soon OR a rash idk but its nuthin

Hon, go to the doctor...especially for the hive like rash.

my husband is a doctor, he told me to tell you to get your hormones checked out.

I don't know about the first, unless you have been continuously getting into Bull Nettle(a plant)

The second are probably black heads, which are a form of acne.

Sores and blackheads.

The black marks are blackheads. They are like little pimples that dont bubble up. If you squeeze them the black part will come out and be gone.

moles and they might be lil tiny moles that are like freckles but i would get that checked out

It could be athlete's foot on your foot and possibly just tiny blackheads on your face.

Ok the hair growing under your nose is called a mustache. It is this fuzzy thing that will grow start to grow on 15 year old males and will get bigger if they don't shave.

Moron.

the things on your feet might be hives your might have a skin allergy to some material thats in your socks or shoes or even your cartpet you shoiuld probably try taking claritan and if it doesn't clear up see a doctor the blak dots i have noo i dea they could be open pores but im not sure

A highly concentrated area of melanocytes - cells of melanin - which produce skin color -yellow, brown, and black. And these black marks under your nose are just an area of your skin that has a concentrated area of melanocytes.

There is nothing you can do about the black marks - they are just like freckels and moles.

Part of your DNA hunny.

Now about these red marks??? These might be carbuncals/boil are a bacteria infection - staphylococcus.

Carbuncals are highly contagious and the cause is unknown but primarily from bacteria - poor hygiene, rubbing of fabics.

GO to your Doc. so you don't spread it to others.
