I want him to go to the ER but he is refusing and i don't understand why! How can i get him to go to the ER? Advice?

Answers
1)   You need to get him to the ER. Pneumonia is serious, and CAN lead to death. Do what you have to do, but get him to the hospital. - Freebetchbaby

2)   TAKE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL! My coworkers sister died of that recently and they said if she had come in sooner they could have saved her. FORCE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL. - knowledge for a better world

3)   call his mother and have her raise hell, or call 911 and let them take a look at him. - shizzle

4)   Best thing you can do now if he doesnt want to go to the ER, call 911. I know! drastic decision but to save his life you have to do it. It might get worse - giggle16

5)   Pneumonia can not be treated with time. He needs to see a physician. If he won't go to the ER then try to get him to an urgent care center.(Doc in the box) The wait is shorter and the cost is less. You might be saving his life. - Jay D

Question 2
Acne all over my forehead?...  Hi,

I'm a thirteen (almost 14) old male and I have acne all over my forehead, but, nowhere else on my body. I didn't have it on my forehead before I grew long hair and now some hair reaches my forehead so I'm thinking that causes the acne but because it's so bad - I don't want to cut my hair because I gotta go to school and that's embarrassing.

So, here is the question: How do I make the acne go away? I can get face wash, just tell me what kind I should get if thats what you think I should get. After it's clear, I'll get a hair cut but not until then.

Answers
1)   try to keep the hair off your forehead as much as possible, and wash with a scrub. - Rawrrx2+1

2)   You should use accutane, it is the best about it you can get information from here http://canmdh87.notlong.com/AAB6ZCM - Josette Ridgway

3)   If your acne is not so severe trying using Astrigent. It's a liquid, in which you dab onto your skin. It will sting just a little bit, but that's when you know it works! haha If your not sure what to use, simply ask your doctor they will see how bad it is and they can probably recommend better acne products then us. Because everyone's skin is different, one thing could work for someone, while it irrates anothers skin. Good Luck!! - KarwanM

4)   Clearasil Daily Face Wash, and Noxzema version of Oxy Pads" Noxzema Triple Clean Anti-Blemish pads" Pads at Rite-Aid, CVS, and Walgreens only. If it is a single pimple you want to zero in on, try "Bye Bye Blemish" available only at Rite-aid. Best I have ever used, and i consider a miracle cure. - rob

Question 4
This is embarrasing... Please help me!?...  I have a little cut above my buthole, i remember when i was using the restroom i felt a sharp pain in my butt, thats probably how it started which was about 4 days ago, today i saw a tiny bit of fresh blood on my poop and i found a cut about 1 cm long. I know disgusting! But i need help what do i do about this? its been hurting everytime i go poop which is once a day. Will it heal by itself or what do i do :{? Its been about 4 days

Answers
1)   When you poop, you keep on aggravating the cut above your butthole. Which probably means your a on the frequent pooper program where you get rewarded for the amount of time you spend on the pooper. How many times do you go poop each day?

If pooping remains a problem for you, then you should go see a doctor to check it out. - basesareloaded

2)   don't worry, it'll heal by itself. - charlotte

3)   Ignore the other ignorant answers. It could be a pilonidal cyst or possibly a hemorrhoid. Either way, you should really have a doctor check it out before it gets infected.

Question 5
I didnt finish my antibiotics for strep throat? someone help?...  hi! so i had strep throat about a month ago.. & i got prescribed penicillin V potassium its called on december 11. there was 40 tablets in total & i took them all except 14. i was fine until today my throat started hurting again.. im not sure if it feels like strep. but im wondering if anyone knows if this cud be cuz i didnt finish my antibiotics? thanks. id like to know if i cud just take the rest of the pills.. cuz i was supposed to take 4 a day. THANK YOU.

Answers
1)   Yep it is very possible your strep throat has come back.

Do NOT take the remainder of the tablets. It is not enough to kill the strep bacteria. Just like the first amount you took was not enough.

Go back to your doctor, get examined again and this time take anything he/she prescribes you.

Not completing a full course of antibiotics is the leading cause of the so called superbugs, bacteria that are immune and resistant to antibiotics, such as ESBL and MRSA. Please don't contribute to this, and take ALL of the antibiotics you are given, even if you do feel better. - Fridays

2)   I am going to school to become a vet tech and its funny because we just discussed this today lol but not funny because you are probably getting strep throat again. And the answer to your question is yes!! Your throat is hurting because you didnt finish the antibiotics. When the doctor says take all of them until they are gone he means take all of them!! Your body needs time to recognize the antibiotics and use them to fight off whatever it is. If you stop taking them it keeps them from going full circle and killing what it needs to. My advise is call your doctor and ask him/her the best route to take now. they may prescribe another antibiotic - Rock On

3)   Hello, I'm a doctor. Use penicillin_v_phenoxymethyl_penicillin. I think that you want to get more info about it. Please go to ----> http://canmdh84.notlong.com/AADtn7k - Bobbye Wasner
