About Dr. Md. Sayedur Rahman Shamim
Dr. Sayedur Rahman Shamim provides dermatology and venereology consultation for adults, adolescents, and children. Patients may seek his assessment for visible or uncomfortable skin problems, recurring rashes, itching, skin allergies, fungal infections, acne, hair or nail concerns, and selected genital or sexual-health symptoms.
Skin conditions can affect sleep, confidence, school attendance, work, and family life. Some problems improve after a short course of treatment, while others repeatedly return and require follow-up or long-term management.
During a consultation, Dr. Shamim may review when the problem started, how it has changed, what medicines or creams have already been used, and whether other household members have similar symptoms. A physical examination or selected investigation may then be recommended according to the patient’s individual condition.
For people living in Bhola Sadar or travelling from another upazila, his scheduled Thursday and Friday chamber provides an opportunity to access specialist skin consultation locally. Patients travelling a long distance should confirm the schedule with the clinic before starting their journey.

MBBS is his foundational medical qualification. His submitted profile also records government health-service experience through BCS (Health) and advanced education related to dermatology and venereology.
The abbreviations above have not been independently expanded or rearranged by BHA. This helps avoid changing the intended meaning of a qualification before it is matched with the doctor’s certificates, official curriculum vitae, or professional record.
Professional Role and Clinical Experience
According to the information supplied for this profile, Dr. Shamim serves as a Consultant associated with Dhaka Medical College and has more than 12 years of clinical experience.
Experience can be particularly useful in dermatology because several conditions may initially look similar. Redness, scaling, spots, pigmentation changes, hair loss, blisters, and itching may have infectious, inflammatory, allergic, medicine-related, or other causes.
A patient’s medical history, examination findings, response to previous treatment, and sometimes laboratory testing can help distinguish between possible diagnoses.
Patients should tell the doctor about:
- Previous skin diagnoses
- Current medicines
- Known medicine or product allergies
- Cosmetics, soaps, or hair products being used
- Previous steroid, antifungal, antibiotic, herbal, or combination creams
- Similar symptoms among household members
- Any recent illness, medicine change, or chemical exposure
Skin Conditions and Concerns Assessed
Acne, Oily Skin, and Acne Marks
Patients may consult Dr. Shamim for recurring pimples, blackheads, painful acne, oily skin, dark marks after acne, or concerns about scarring.
Acne management depends on its severity, the patient’s age, skin sensitivity, previous treatment, and whether it affects the face, chest, shoulders, or back. Some people have mild occasional acne, while others develop inflamed spots that can cause long-lasting pigmentation or scars.
Squeezing inflamed acne may increase irritation and marks. Patients should bring the names or photographs of products already used so the doctor can identify potentially irritating combinations or unnecessary duplication.
Eczema, Dermatitis, Itching, and Skin Allergy
Dry, red, cracked, or itchy skin may be associated with eczema, contact dermatitis, urticaria, reactions to cosmetics, occupational exposure, medicines, or other conditions.
Not every itchy rash is caused by an allergy. Repeatedly using pharmacy medicine, steroid creams, or mixed creams without a diagnosis may temporarily change the appearance of the skin while allowing the original problem to continue.
During assessment, the doctor may ask about soaps, detergents, cosmetics, jewellery, workplace chemicals, new medicines, sweating, weather changes, and whether the rash repeatedly affects the same part of the body.
Fungal Infection, Scabies, and Contagious Rashes
Ringworm is a fungal infection that may appear as an itchy, scaly, and spreading skin patch. Scabies commonly causes severe itching that becomes worse at night and may affect several people living in the same household.
The World Health Organization advises that household contacts may require management at the same time when scabies is diagnosed because it can spread through prolonged close contact. (World Health Organization)
A Bangladesh tertiary-hospital study reviewed 119,228 newly diagnosed dermatology patients and reported that infectious conditions accounted for 54.9% of cases. This was a hospital-based study rather than a national prevalence estimate, but it highlights the demand for timely assessment of fungal infections, scabies, and other infectious skin concerns. (Bangladesh Journals Online)
Patients should tell the doctor whether anyone else at home has similar itching, whether treatment was stopped early, and whether a steroid-containing combination cream has already been used.
Hair, Scalp, Nail, and Pigmentation Concerns
Dr. Shamim’s submitted specialty includes consultation for concerns such as:
- Sudden or gradual hair loss
- Patchy hair loss
- Dandruff
- Scalp irritation
- Thickened or discoloured nails
- Suspected fungal nail infection
- Melasma
- Uneven pigmentation
- Changes in skin colour
These symptoms may have different causes. The doctor may need to examine the scalp, hair, skin, or nails closely and review diet, recent illness, stress, family history, medicines, previous chemical treatments, and related health conditions.
Pediatric Dermatology in Bhola
Parents may consult Dr. Shamim for skin concerns affecting babies, children, and adolescents. These may include persistent rashes, eczema, itching, fungal infection, scabies, birthmarks, warts, scalp problems, or changes in skin colour.
Children should not automatically receive a cream or medicine prescribed for an adult family member. Medicine strength and treatment duration can depend on the child’s age, body weight, diagnosis, and the part of the body affected.
Parents can prepare for the visit by bringing:
- Previous prescriptions
- Relevant reports
- Packages or photographs of products already used
- Clear photographs if the rash changes before the appointment
- Information about fever, itching, sleep problems, or similar symptoms at home
For fever, growth, nutrition, breathing difficulties, vaccination, and general childhood conditions beyond the skin, families may also explore BHA’s child specialists in Bhola. (Bangladesh Health Alliance)
Confidential Sexual Health and Venereology Consultation
Venereology includes the assessment of sexually transmitted infections and related genital skin conditions. Patients may seek Dr. Shamim’s consultation for concerns such as:
- Genital itching or irritation
- Rashes or sores
- Genital warts
- Unusual lesions
- Discharge
- Burning or discomfort
- Concern after possible sexual exposure
A respectful and honest discussion can help the doctor decide whether examination, testing, treatment, or partner evaluation may be appropriate.
The CDC advises patients to discuss their sexual history openly with a healthcare provider because STI testing requirements vary according to symptoms, sexual practices, and individual risk. (CDC)
Patients should avoid using unprescribed antibiotics, steroid creams, or unverified sexual-health products. Before sending intimate photographs or sensitive documents, ask the clinic to confirm its private communication process.
WhatsApp consultation should not be considered an emergency or anonymous testing service.
Laser and Aesthetic Skin Consultation
The submitted profile identifies Dr. Shamim as a laser and aesthetic specialist. Patients may consult him regarding selected concerns such as acne marks, melasma, pigmentation, scars, or changes in skin texture.
The supplied information does not confirm which laser devices or procedures are currently available at Habib Medical Center. Patients should therefore ask the chamber about:
- Procedure availability
- Treatment location
- Suitability for their skin type
- Expected benefits and limitations
- Number of sessions
- Possible side effects
- Recovery and aftercare
- Total procedure cost
No laser or aesthetic procedure produces the same outcome for every person. A medical assessment is important before deciding whether a procedure or a non-procedural alternative is appropriate.
When Should You Seek Dermatology Care?
Consider arranging a dermatology consultation when a skin problem:
- Persists or repeatedly returns
- Continues to spread
- Causes severe or night-time itching
- Becomes painful, swollen, or infected
- Disturbs sleep or daily activities
- Produces sores, blisters, or discharge
- Causes sudden or patchy hair loss
- Affects a baby or young child
- Appears after starting a medicine
- Involves a changing skin growth
- May relate to sexual contact
Seek Urgent Medical Care
Do not wait for a routine chamber appointment when there is difficulty breathing, swelling of the lips, face, mouth, or tongue, extensive blistering or peeling, severe fever with a rapidly worsening rash, fainting, or serious illness.
Rashes involving the eyes, lips, mouth, or genital skin may also require prompt medical attention. (American Academy of Dermatology)
Online Consultation with Dr. Sayedur Rahman Shamim
Online consultation is available through WhatsApp at 01760-483020.
It may be useful for a selected initial discussion, review of a recurring concern, or treatment follow-up. However, online consultation cannot always replace a physical examination.
Before the appointment, prepare:
- A short history of the symptoms
- Previous prescriptions
- Relevant reports
- Current medicine names
- Details of known allergies
- Clear photographs taken without filters
Take one photograph showing where the problem is located and one or more close-up photographs in good light. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends including both location and close-up views and notes that an in-person visit may still be needed when closer examination, testing, or removal of a lesion is required. (American Academy of Dermatology)
Do not rely on online consultation for breathing difficulty, facial swelling, severe blistering, collapse, heavy bleeding, or another emergency.

FAQs
1. Is online consultation suitable for a first appointment with Dr. Sayedur Rahman Shamim?
Yes, it may be suitable for an initial discussion when the concern is visible and clear photographs can be provided. Dr. Shamim may still recommend an in-person visit if the diagnosis is uncertain, closer examination is needed, testing or a procedure may be required, or the condition appears urgent. Contact the clinic before sending photographs or sensitive documents. (American Academy of Dermatology)
2. How should I photograph a skin problem for Dr. Shamim’s online consultation?
Use bright, natural-looking light, turn off filters, and make sure every image is in focus. Take an orientation photograph showing where the problem is located, a comparison view including nearby normal skin, and a close-up showing detail. Remove makeup or nail polish when relevant, and ask the clinic which private method should be used to send the images. (American Academy of Dermatology)
3. Can Dr. Shamim review a skin condition that improved before the chamber visit?
Yes. Bring dated photographs showing how the condition looked at different stages, along with a short timeline of when it started, whether it returned, and which products or medicines were used. Photographs may help Dr. Shamim understand a changing rash, but they may not replace examination when the cause remains uncertain or the problem is recurring. (American Academy of Dermatology)
4. What should parents bring to a pediatric dermatology appointment with Dr. Shamim?
Bring the child’s previous prescriptions, relevant reports, current medicine list, known allergy information, and the packages or photographs of creams already used. Note when the problem began, whether there is fever or night-time itching, and whether anyone else at home has similar symptoms. A parent or responsible guardian should accompany the child and describe any recent changes clearly. (American Academy of Dermatology)
5. What information should I share during a confidential sexual-health consultation?
Explain the symptoms, when they began, any possible exposure, previous tests or treatment, current medicines, and whether a partner has symptoms. Honest information helps the doctor decide whether examination, testing, treatment, or partner assessment may be appropriate. Before sending intimate photographs or documents, ask the clinic to confirm its private communication process and who will receive the information. (CDC)
6. Should I use pharmacy medicine before seeing Dr. Sayedur Rahman Shamim?
Before starting a new cream, antibiotic, antifungal, steroid-containing product, or unlabelled remedy, ask a qualified clinician or pharmacist, particularly when the diagnosis is uncertain. Bring every product already used, or clear photographs of its packaging, to the appointment. Do not stop an essential medicine prescribed for another condition unless the prescribing clinician advises you to do so. (American Academy of Dermatology)
7. Which rashes should not wait for Dr. Shamim’s routine chamber hours?
Seek urgent medical care for a rash that covers much of the body, forms blisters or open sores, becomes rapidly painful, involves the eyes or mouth, or occurs with fever and serious illness. Difficulty breathing, fainting, or swelling of the face, lips, or tongue requires emergency care rather than waiting for a routine dermatology appointment. (American Academy of Dermatology)
8. Can laser or aesthetic treatment be performed during the first visit?
Possibly, but it should not be assumed. The first visit may be needed to confirm the diagnosis, assess skin type, review previous treatment, discuss realistic outcomes, and decide whether a procedure is suitable. Patients should ask Habib Medical Center whether the required service and equipment are available, where the procedure is performed, and whether preparation or a separate appointment is necessary.
9. Can Dr. Shamim assess hair loss or nail problems through an online consultation?
An online consultation may support an initial review when clear photographs and a detailed history are available. However, some hair-loss and nail conditions require close scalp or nail examination, dermoscopy, laboratory tests, or an in-person assessment. The clinic can advise whether an online appointment is reasonable first or whether the patient should attend the Bhola chamber directly. (American Academy of Dermatology)
10. Should all family members attend if a contagious skin condition is suspected?
Not always, but the clinic should be told how many household members have itching or a similar rash. Dr. Shamim may need information about each affected person and may advise that selected family members be examined. When scabies is diagnosed, the World Health Organization recommends treating household members together to reduce ongoing spread and reinfestation. (World Health Organization)
