Brown Spot On Wrist, Itchy, Tingling, Dizzy. No Family History Of Skin Cancer.

Have itching on my skin sometimes but notice it almost every time I take a shower and skin gets wet. I mainly notice it on my back. I've also had small cyst removed on my ear that were hard cyst, hard movable cyst.
Thanks for your query and a detailed one at that too.
The patch on the inner aspect of the wrist seems to be a sort of dermatitis which can be because of dryness or irritation due to any substance.
A topical combination of steroid cream and a moisturiser can help you in the same.
Your body symptoms and other concerns might be due to vitamin deficiencies or an altered thyroid profile. You can discuss the same with your primary care physician.
A lesion which was described as a fat deposit by your dermatologist but was not convincing for you can be taken for a skin biopsy to ascertain the diagnosis.
Itching on body after shower can be 'Aquagenic urticaria " and can be treated with antihistaminic and other Immune modifier drugs but the diagnosis needs to be confirmed by your dermatologist before starting the treatment.
I can understand your mental agony and going by the chronicity of the various skin problems. I would advise you to have a regular follow up with a qualified dermatologist in your area to get a complete cure to all your long standing problems.

Hi, I just checked what Aquagenic Urticaria is...can't be correct. It's mainly my back that itches and it doesn't happen every single time I shower. I love baths...never had issues with water, crying, drinking water, sweat...although the salt in sweat may bother me a bit. Does salt have anything to do with it?
I forgot to mention...my hair appears to be thinning.
Thanks for your feedback and detailed History.
I am sorry if I could not convince you with my explanation during our last conversation. Let me try today.
I would like to know few more things as this would help. Hence please answer these.
Are you obese?
What’s your height and weight?
To my opinion you seem to have Xerosis (dryness of skin). Apply sufficient amount of moisturizer especially just after taking bath. Drink plenty of water (provided your renal functions are normal).
You need a detailed check up by Dermatologist and Physician. I am sorry but without doing a comprehensive physical examination of you, I cannot conclude on the diagnosis part.
I think this should help you.
Best Regards

Thanks for your feedback.
As your problem is not being solved since long time, this is causing mental distress.
You need proper face to face counseling as well. So, I will still suggest you to have team work up of your case with Dermatologist/physician and Psychiatrist.
I hope this will help you.
With Regards,
Dr Rohit Batra.


I am sorry if my earlier reply hurt you.
A doctor is there to help the patients and if a cure is not easy and some problem persists for long, we do take a referal or a second opinion.
The idea is not to miss anything.
Sorry once again.
Dr. Rohit
