Viral Skin Infections

Viral skin infections — such as herpes, molluscum or shingles — cause blisters, bumps or rashes that may be itchy or painful. Early antiviral care eases symptoms and speeds healing.

Symptoms & signs

Signs of Viral Skin Infections can vary from person to person. Common ones include:

  • Blisters, bumps or a rash
  • Itching, tingling or pain
  • Clustered or spreading spots
  • Sometimes fever or fatigue

When to see a dermatologist

  • The problem is spreading, worsening, or not improving with home care.
  • It is painful, itchy, bleeding, or affecting your sleep or confidence.
  • Over-the-counter creams have not helped after about two weeks.

Treatment approach

Treatment for Viral Skin Infections is tailored to you. After an accurate diagnosis, Dr. Maharania may recommend appropriate medicines and practical skin-care guidance — starting with the simplest effective plan and adjusting as your skin responds. Tests are suggested only when they would change treatment.

What to expect

1

Assessment

Dr. Maharania examines the affected area and asks about your history, triggers and any treatments you've already tried.

2

Diagnosis

3

A treatment plan suited to your skin type, the severity, and your daily routine — explained in plain language.

4

Follow-up

Review visits or WhatsApp check-ins to fine-tune the plan and track your progress over time.
