Question 1
Do i have a disease becuz i cant use the bathroom?... i was in china for 1 month and during that month i had a problem
it was like i had diarrhea but not for like a regular 1 -2 days it was for 2 weeks!!!
and after i got back from china my stomach ached and i couldnt use the bathroom i couldnt poop?
its been 3 days and i feel like something is wrong with me what should i do

Answers
1) Ask a pharmacist to recommend something.The actual pharmacist not just a clerk. - Melissa M

2) dont worry when i went out of country and back i didn't take a crap for a whole week. But i did have to pee. If you're not peeing then you definately need to see a doctor

constipation by the way
eat fiber - Bob Hope

3) Eat a lot because you evacuated all you had in their in China. - (A+)

4) Well if you feel like there's something wrong go to the doctor. What was you eating over there maybe the food wasn't setting well with you. - Wasabi's girl

5) When you travel to a new area, the bacteria that are endemic to the area are new to your system, so you will have diarrhea for a while.

Next time, talk to an Infectious Disease doctor before you go, as there are treatments to help control this.

And if your stomach doesn't recover in two weeks, see an ID doc. - Frank

6) I think you could be suffering from chronic dyslexia. - David Wilson

7) Take some laxatives or something. Also make sure you are drinking your bodies necessary amount of water. I would also make sure you are getting lots of vitamin c. You could just have a mild stomach bug. You can get them from mishandled food, very common in places like mexico, and I'm guessing some Asian countries. Your body should fight it and you will probably get over it soon. If it lasts for more than a week after you get back though, maybe you should go see a doc. You can check out this wiki page that I found referring to the stomach bug. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveler's_diarrhea
But please, don't just take yahoo answers advice. You know your body better than anyone, and if you think you are really sick, its better to go see a doc. - jambaintoyou

Question 2
i excrete large clots of blood, im thinking it has something to do with my kidney, anyone know?...
they are coming from my rectal area as i am excreting them out, i have pain in my lower abdominal area which is why i thought first of kidney troubles, i am a 42 year old male, i have no health problems i know of which could relate to this.

Answers
1) Where are the large clots of blood coming from? You have a few orifices in your body- where they are coming from could tell us a whole lot more, as well as any symptoms you might be having, whether you are male or female, and your rough age (Within 10 years is fine)

EDIT: This is hemmorhage, as someone else has pointed out. Any bleeding to do with your kidneys would come from your ureter (through your penis). The kidneys are not connected to your bowels, but any large clots that are coming out are indicative of a much larger problem. You should see a doctor right away, especially with the belly pain. This could be a very serious issue- any time you have rectal bleeding that is not associated with hemmheroids (Hemmhehoids produce bright red blood and streaking with pain upon evacuation) you should go to the emergency room. Clots indicate something really really bad is happening, such as rectal cancer or crohn's disease. If they are black or tarry stools, go in right now- don't wait. It means you could lose too much blood before you could drive there. - Kristen

2) Excrete as in stool? It's not your kidneys if it's coming out that way. - LYNN in FL (suspended @#*%)

3) It sounds like a hemorrhage (internal bleeding). You need to go to the doctors. It's not always related to the kidney, it could be something else. - sheena

Question 3
What is causing my mysterious tight skin and how can I treat it?... For the past two years or so I have suffered from tight skin on my face and neck. My face is also a reddish colour (although my neck is not this colour while still having the exact same tight feeling). I only wash with water in the shower and wash just once or twice a day with lukewarm water. My skin does not feel particularly dry but if I do not scrub at it in the shower then I do tend to get a build up of dead skin.

My diet is fairly healthy - I avoid all 'junk' food and try to keep it as balanced as possible.
I wanted to know if anyone else has suffered from the same problem (without having dried their skin with harsh topicals or anything like that) and if so whether they can give any advice. Obviously I am aware that I can use a moisturiser but as my skin is so sensitive they tend to disagree with it (makes it redder, causes pimples etc.).

Could this problem be down to some sort of food intolerance/allergy (I m not aware that I have any), or is it purely hereditary and something that I am forced to treat externally with moisturisers?

Thank you :)

Answers
1) It's probably the very water that you use. Water alone does not clean and if not moisturised is much to harsh. I have sensitive skin too and use the tea tree products in summer and the Vichy in winter.

There is also a Bee product on the market that is really great and is all natural. I mean it too, no BS.

You need to clean your skin and put something on it or you will look 80 before your time. - Gideon Jones

2) Most likely you are just dry from the face scrubbing leading to a tight feeling. Once a day washing is generally enough and even then many people need moisturizers. Use one that is noncomedogenic so you know it won't clog pores and cause acne.
Tight skin can be a sign of scleroderma, but it is uncommon and dry skin is common, so make full use of the moisturizers and see a dermatologist if that is not enough. - curator

3) Since you obviously like to take a natural approach to skin care, I'll recommend a 100% natural moisturizer. Dr. Hauschka's Moisturizing Day Cream, or Rose Day Cream Light, are designed for people with your skin condition. If you find you like the brand, I recommend adding the other steps of the cleansing process as well. Here is a link for you to check out: http://www.drhauschka.com/find-products-for-your-skin/dry.aspx I hope you like it! :) - Mango

Question 4
How do some heart attacks kill people INSTANTLY?... How come some people are dead before they hit the ground if they get a heart attack? Like if the blood and oxygen stops going to the brain how does that instantly kill someone. Also you die immediately if shot in the chest aswel which is probably a lot better but how does it happen?

Answers
1) Some people have weaker hearts than others so a weaker heart would be unable to recover from the shock of a large heart attack. It also depends on the severity of the attack.

You don't really die "immediately" if shot in the chest, first it depends if the heart is what was shot, and it depends where the bullet hits. - David

2) My cardiologist told me that if the LEFT artery of the heart was blocked then having a heart attack would be deadly. A heart attack basically happens because the blood vessel is clogged and the heart is trying to push blood through it. If the left artery is totally blocked(called calcification), then the artery tears and you are dead right away..... - What Will The Spill Kill?

3) a massive heart attack leads to cardiogenic shock which affect brain function and also other vital organs, these contributes to a faster brain death. In gun shot hypovolumic shock due to large amount of blood loss within minimal period contribute to a faster death. - aziz

Question 5
Acne scar. Is it an ugly thing?... I have an acne scar under my left eye.
My parents insist its not noticeable but it JUST IS.
I fully understand that when you have an imperfection you see it as being far worse than anyone else does because it is your own.
Was wondering, is this considerably unattractive?. I have the impression that a scar with a heroic or interesting story behind it would make me think less of it, or perhaps even be proud of it. However, i inflicted it on myself by picking a spot years ago and i am therefore extremely insecure about it, i hate photos and avoid looking in the mirror in general.
Thoughts on scars/facial imperfections in general?

Answers
1) Scars aren't ugly. They're just part of you. Some have awesome war stories, but some don't. The ones that don't still look fine. I think the only person who'll notice it would be you, because you're judging yourself. If another person comments on it, just say that you'd tell them the epic story of how you got it, but it'd take too long. - Nikolai Mcleman

2) Hey, Its like you've just said it looks ten times worse then what we think. Its all about how you feel about yourself; Everyones insecure about something or the other; i mean for me its my weight i'm a size 8/10 but i still feel im fat and hate looking at myself in the mirror or i hate looking at pictures of myself.
Me as an indvidual scars dont bother me; just because someone has a scar on their face it doesn't instantly make you unattractive as cliche as it sounds its about whats inside that counts...xx - BroWn_EyeZ

My 22 yr old son is having allot of discomfort in top right abdominal area..what could this be?

This is the third day and he is going to the Dr. tomorrow He's not in pain just allot of frustrating discomfort and when he lays down and coughs it kinda hurts he says..Thank you in advance for your help!
He had a ruptured appendix at age 6 and it's in his front right up abdominal aka(abs) up high close to his top ribs

Answers
1) His appendix may burst. Take him to the doctor and make sure he is ok. It would not be good... - Andrew Gifford

2) kidney is causing problem! i bet ya! - Ryan Haczz

3) I think it might be a broken rib... but "abdominal pain" is the most annoying symptom for doctors because it's so vague and it could really be anything! Make an appointment for the doctor and get it seen to. It's probably not serious enough for the ER, but it's best to get it checked out by a doc. - Bébé.

4) Well, we definitely know it's not his kidney. Considering your kidneys are located on the BACK side of your body. And the appendix is located in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen.. The only thing I can think of that's located in that area would be his stomach. - jennifer

Question 2
How To Tell My Mom I Think I Have Cancer?... i felt a little bump on my ear today.. im 16.. how should i tell my mom i need to get this checked out?!

Answers
1) Bumps on the ear at age 16 are almost certainly not cancer. Show your mom the bump and ask her what she thinks. - formerly_bob

2) Relax just cause you have a bump on your ear doesn't mean you have cancer. It's probably just a pimple. - xXelite modzXx

3) Cysts on the ear are extremely common; I get them once in a while too, as well as my buddy, parents and wife. Don't bother mentioning cancer, as it's not the case. Just ask her to take you to a clinic. - Scott

4) Just show her the bump. "Hey, look at this. What do you think this is?" If it doesn't go away by itself in a few days, or if it gets worse, she may decide to have a doctor look at it.

Not every bump on your ear is cancer. Ear cancer is actually very rare. Not many people die of it. - Mr. Smartypants

Question 3
How is alcoholism a disease?... My mother is an alcoholic, me and my brother and sister have all tried to get her to give up drinking but its completely hopeless. (We're all adults) she drinks a 12 pack of beer every night, four beers get her drunk- but she just keeps drinking. She drinks alone every time, always starting at 5pm and says she does it because she's depressed and cant/won't stop. She's been doing this ever sense any of us can remember, at least a few decades. I understand dependance and addiction but my mother always taught me that alcoholism is not a disease so having been raised to think that I am now having a hard time seeing how it IS a disease. Someone please explain to me how it is? Maybe if I convince her that it is she will be more likely to treat it like a disease and get help.

Answers
1) it is an addiction. addiction is considered a disease, and is treated as such. seems odd. the body is so dependent on alcohol, that quitting is actually very stressful. you can,t convince any addict that they have a problem until they are at the end of their rope, so to speak. - David

2) Webster's dictionary defines "disease" as:

"a condition of the living animal or plant body or of one of its parts that impairs normal functioning and is typically manifested by distinguishing signs and symptoms"

and

"a harmful development (as in a social institution)"

Your mother's addiction to alcohol would fall under the first definition, just the condition is self-inflicted. The second definition is more related to something like "political corruption is a disease affecting the country" or something like that.

You should contact a psychologist or local rehab clinic for information on helping your mom. But understand many people will not quit an addiction unless they quit on their own, so it's really not a great idea to force her into it. But i will say i do not envy your position. At least you recognize the problem so hopefully you and your siblings can grow up, get out of there, and not make the same mistake. - nerdcore

Question 5
whitch race has the best immune system?... I know that white people have a 21.3% (on average) higher white cell count than most races meaning they have the best Resistance (this is why they live longer and stuff) but with some illnesses the white cells in the blood have never been exposed to certain illnesses like malaria or Sears so they don't know how to fight them. so my question is whitch race has been exposed to most illnesses so their immune system knows how to fight the infection?

Answers
1) It really depends on the person. Everyone is different but I would say probably Caucasians. STD's and heart disease are higher in African Americans and Hispanics in this country vs Caucasians. Asians have good medicine but they aren't exposed much to other races in their own country so they would probably have one of the lower immune systems. Though like I said before it depends on the person. You can still have a white person with a terrible immune system and a black person, Asian or Mexican with a better one. - Hachi

2) More than race, it may be where you live and how your live. Some babies are raised in a sterile environment where they are prevented from being exposed to many germs. Other babies are raised outside on the ground and are exposed to animals and other little ones all day. So maybe they are sick more when they are babies, but when they grow up (if they survive), I think they have a stronger immune system than the protected babies. - nochocolate

itchy anus, what should I do?... I know its not because I don't wipe well enough, because I wipe very well, maybe I wipe TOO hard, and that causes the itchiness?

I have tried baths, baby powder, showering and washing it with soap, Vaseline. maybe washing the area too extensively is bad and is causing itchiness?

if you cant be mature, please just dont answer.
pinworms... O-o

and um, yeah its probably just me wiping, cleaning to rough, i will get some butt wipes next time I go to the store, aloe ones, and do the lotion thing too, thanks everyone for being mature

Answers
1) That sounds bad :/ go to the doctor ? Its more precise then an answer on here. - Harlow skye

2) Use the dampened wipes at the end, the ones that have aloe in them. You could also use some medicated type of powder when finished, to prevent that itching sensation. - Smokies Hiker

3) Are you sure you don't have pinworms, as this is a common
cause of really itchy bum-hole. You can get the medication at the
drug store. If you have little kids in the family, and they play
sitting on the ground, esp in sand, this is a very real possibility.

If you think it is irritation from being too rough, you should be
able to apply calamine lotion, which is for itching, and again
in available in the drug store, Then stop being so intensive.
Use baby wipes, and apply plain talc. - always b natural

4) Ha I have the same problem, well not anymore. What I do is when I wipe I put some lotion on the tissue, spread it around a bit with my finger and then wipe. Also I use some water from the tap on the next wipe. You don't want to shove lotion up there but just a bit works. Also you can clean well with a disinfectant and then place something like neosporin where it itches. Leave the area alone but I think dry wiping too much and scrubbing etc was the problem. You may have ripped the skin too. If the problem persists go to the doctor. It may be something worse, probably isn't but better to be safe than sorry. Best Luck! - ?

I really don't know what MRSA is but from what I was told, you can die from it. I really don't want to lose my mother, I'm still very young and I'd probably go into an insane asylum if she died on me.. Someone please help me on this.. I just want to know what MRSA really is and if she'll be okay. Thank you..

Answers
1) I'm so sorry to tell you this but I heard MRSA is deadly. I hope I'm wrong but that's what I heard. I wish you the est of luck, don't forget to pray/ - ☮B!zarre☮

2) MRSA stands for "Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus", which is a bacterium that's resistant to a lot of drugs usually used to treat infections.

Can you die from it? Yes, you can, and it is hard to treat. However, it's not guaranteed to kill you either, and it can be treated in some cases. Although MRSA can't be treated with normal antibiotics, there are other more powerful drugs that can be used to treat it.

Question 5
Allergic to my tap water?... Since I moved, my hands have peeled and hurt after taking showers or washing dishes. I have been given a cream (Been using it since march) ,because my dermatologist thought it was eczema of some sort. I quit washing dishes. However, I spent two weeks at my grandma's house and was doing dishes and going swimming. I noticed that my hands were normal again. I thought the cream had finally started working so I came home and starting doing the dishes. Then my hands were back to there original state.

Am I allergic to my towns water supply?

Answers
1) Sounds like it. Although is it possible to be allergic to water, very
rare, it is most likely you are allergic to the additive (s) in the water. - always b natural

2) It is possible that where you live there is something in the water that your skin doesn't respond to nicely. I know in Kelso there are some spots that are very gross and you have to use a filter for drinking. Yes it is possible you are allergic. Maybe try contacting the town? - Susan Huckstra

3) I wouldnt say your alergic to your tap water as much as i would say you may have developed sensitive skin. These kinds of things are very normal and can be cured by simply using lotion on ur hands daily. If that doesnt work it may be that ur hands get upset over the moister, if thats the case i would consult a docter about it and they will give you a sertain kind of cream to cure this problem - Sean

How to get rid of acne?

Question 1
How to get rid of acne?... Is there anyway I can get rid of my acne without those products like proactive,clean n clear ect. I only have small zits on my forehead and some around my nose area

Answers
1) Yes wash your face alot and don't use bar soap - j

2) OMG another question about acne.

I have been trying to tell people that they have the solution to acne within themselves.

The answer is your own urine will remove or shrink the acne to nothing OVER NIGHT !!!
Use a q-tip and rub some of your own urine onto the pimple just before bed time. It wil dry up instantly. The next day wash your face with a mild soap. Cause the urine draws out oil from your pimple and shrinks it or makes it disappear over night. It works I have tried it and my high school friends told me that it does work. I found out for myself also when I had a big painful pimple on my nose. Took 2 applications and it was gone !! - dsn

3) Make sure your bed sheets/covers/pillows are clean , and drink TONS OF WATER ! - Cakes

Question 3
What can you eat with a ulcer?...

Answers
1) Eat three small meals and three snacks evenly spaced throughout the day. It is important to avoid periods of hunger or overeating.
Eat slowly and chew foods well.
Be relaxed at mealtime.
Sit up while eating and for 1 hour afterward.
Avoid eating within 3 hours before bedtime. Bedtime snacks can cause gastric acid secretion during the night.
Cut down on caffeine-containing foods and beverages, citrus and tomato products, and chocolate if these foods cause discomfort.
Include a good source of protein (milk, meat, egg, cheese, etc.) at each meal and snack.
Antacids should be taken in the prescribed dose, One-hour and 3 hours after meals and prior to bedtime. This regimen is most likely to keep the acidity of the stomach at the most stable and lowest level.
Milk and cream feedings should not be used as antacid therapy. Although milk protein has an initial neutralizing effect on gastric acid, it is also a very potent stimulator. Hourly feedings of milk have been shown to produce a lower pH than three regular meals.
Caffeine-containing beverages (coffee, tea, and cola drinks) and decaffeinated coffee cause increased gastric acid production but may be taken in moderation at or near mealtime, if tolerated. - nochocolate

2) you should have been a little more specific. What kind of ulcer do you have, stomach, esophageal or intestinal? In general the food is always taken in the liquid form. Fruit juices like Sweet lime and orange are very helpful. Yogurt and Indian Butter milk have shown to reduce the recurrence of ulcers in the stomach and include lot of milk and milk based shakes in your diet..take care.. - Mubin Ali

Question 1
what can i do to get rid of really bad acne?... i have really bad acne and i have tried everything. i use these pads on my face i also use this ointment that a doctor gave me but nothing works. i was my face 3 time a day and i make sure i dont dry my face out. any ideas?
PLEASE HELP!

Answers
1) This Acne is due to hormonal changes. There is no need to feel self conscious, I did for a while but everyone has it & it's definitely not a big deal. There is not too much you can do right now (it will get back to normal later). Avoid oily or fatty foods & excessive sugar, drinks lots of water, wash your face a lot & use a sulphur soap. I have tried it & it really helped. It is dermatologically proved to help in acne treatment & other skin problems :) - Dave Naylor

2) well what causes acne is dirt and oil on the face.. so keep on washing it and taking good care of it .. don't use cleanser pads.. they never work.. go back to the doctor and ask for a prescription.. it works trust me !!! .. and please someone help me with my question.. that would be amazing if you could.. heres the link:

3) keep your face clean and daily one time apply egg white on your face and keep it 10 min. after that wash your face with warm water your acne will completely remove just first try then reply me; when you give result. - Angelina Gates

4) Well this is what my friends mom did to her.She told her daughter to put rubbing alcohol on her face first.Then put powder where the acne is.And it actually worked cuz her face got cleard up and avoid eating alot of greasy food - Esmeralda Rodriguez

5) Believe me you're not alone. I get really bad breakouts a lot so I'm used to this. What I use it Clearasil face wash acne + marks. This seems to work for me. I also use Clearasil pads. I wash my face when I wake up and before I go to bed. You also have to remember, if you're a teen like me, it's normal. Everyone gets acne. Also try not to touch your face so much. The oil from your hands makes your face oily. And also make sure your hair isn't greasy. If your hair is greasy, then your face will be if it's touching it. I hope this helps! - Cassidy Parkes

Is this also acne? Can Isotretonoin treat it?
No it doesnt look like that. Stop trying to scare the living hell out of me just to get points. Have some morals.

Then it's probably rosacea which can be caused by food reactions. Especially things high in copper like soy or maybe even your multivitamin. And also things like chocolate, tomatoes and citrus. - Esme

2) There is no real way to treat acne. My daughter has severe acne so I took her to a dermatologist which helped a lot. Look for a dermatologist in your area at YourCIty.MD A great site to find any doctor you need in your area with ratings and testimonials.

I don't know if you're overweight, I'm 14 and i'm 120. but if you are that is another factor to high blood pressure. Since you play football you have to move around a lot which can make your blood pressure higher. check it out with your doctor.

Question 3
Two-colored mole? Is it dangerous?... I have a mole below the belt that I've had since I can remember, it's never given me any problems but last week I noticed it is changing colors? Most of it is brown and a little part is dark pink. It's oval and not a weird shape, and doesn't seem to be growing although it's been pretty big. Is it something I need to worry about?

Answers
1) Any mole that changes shape, colour or size needs to be investigated ASAP. It may turn out to be nothing but at least you'll have peace of mind. Speak to your GP or a Skin specialist.

Good Luck
:) - J Smith

2) Have your doctor look at it as soon as possible. - Beff Pronio

3) If the edges are clear, that's a sign it's not cancer. Also if it's smaller around than a pencil eraser.

When is your next exam? Be sure to show it to the doctor then, just to be safe. - Barbara MOV

Question 4
How do I make my callous feet soft? And how long will it take?... My parents keep telling me to make my feet soft-they said it's ladylike. Anyway, my left foot is slightly callous, but my right foot....I'm not sure how to save it... And I usually wear high heeled leather shoes 6x a week and I can't change it cause it's part of my uniform.
My parents are coming to visit me at the end of this month (about 10 days from now) and I'm sure they'll check my feet. So what I'm asking is:

How can I make my feet soft and will I be able to make them soft in 10 days???

Please help, I'll be dead if my parents see my calloused feet:(

Answers
1) At the store they sell a foot scraper u take it and u rub on the bottom of your foot and all the dead dry skin will come off. Then u get some foot cream lotions to moisterize your dry skin. You could get them done at a nail salon. I hope this was helpful. - Partygirl

2) Ok! First things first, Everyone gets callouses. You can stop it, Its because your shoes. But you can't help it because of your uniform. You can take a filer and Chisel away calluses. Kinda like nail filiers. That's how you get rid of your callouses. It takes no more than a day if you concentrate and are gentle about it. You can try lotioning with natural lotion. With Shea Butter or Cream.
Hope I Helped! - Very Random

Why do I have this yellow crust behind my ears?... About 2 weeks ago I've had this yellow crusty stuff behind my right ear, like right around my ear piercing hole. And i sorta like peeled it off and then it was fine, but then it would become wet and the color was clear. And then a few moments later I would touch the back of my ear again and the yellow crusty stuff was there again.....it's like it keeps forming again?
I started to stop wearing my earrings (they are fake studs that a friend gave me a long time ago) and i stopped wearing earrings for a couple of days to see if it would go away but it never did. so then i started wearing earrings again but only sometimes. There were like 2 or 3 times where I accidently fell asleep still wearing my earrings. I did it last night and when I wooke up this morning, the crusty stuff was all around the back of my ear and it was really gross..
i dont even try to take it off anymore cause it'll just become wet and become crusty again..
Also, a few days ago the yellow crust stuff appeared on my left ear as well. Before it was just my right ear.
Anyone have any idea what i should do?

Should i go tested for diabetes?

2011-07-11T10:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
Should i go tested for diabetes?... A relative of mine has diabetes and today she tested my blood sugar and it was 129 and she said that was bad. So now im worried that i have it. I workout all the time eat healthy but i went to school with kids who had diabetes and seemed healthy so now im terrified.She said she will test it again. What do you think i should do?

Answers
1) yes - ada ava

2) just to make sure i would go with yes - Akul Sharma

3) Diabetes is a disease. You don't just get it because you have high blood pressure.

Most of the people who are diagnosed get it because it was in the family blood.

You shouldn't get all worked up about it. If you feel a certain type of way about it, then go see a doctor to be extra safe.

Hope all goes well! - Ant Rich

4) Check webmd for symptoms of diabetes if you see you have some or all the symptoms listed there then it's a good idea to have youself checked. - D S♦T♦A♦R♦S

5) The only way to know for sure is to have medical testing to determine if you are diabetic. A blood sugar test should be under 125 when tested 2 times. That is the current criteria for a diagnosis of diabetes. Hard to know what else you are eating or drinking that would cause it to be high. So if you are truly diabetic, it is best to know early so that you can avoid the complications of diabetes.

Even non-diabetics have higher and lower blood sugar numbers than the normals. Everyone has varying blood sugars thoughout the day and night. Diabetics have unusually large swings in their blood sugars.

So do you have any of the symptoms of diabetes? - mildred f

6) Calm down, you are fine. The normal range for fasting blood sugar is 60 to 120. 129 is perfectly normal , especially if you have eaten recently. Don't allow people to get you freaked out. A person with undiagnosed diabetes feels Terrible, very fatigued, urinates a lOT, Very thirsty, feels really sick. This doesn't sound like you. - kaykay

I have some questions concerning breast cancer.?... I was playing with my son earlier today, and was lying on my back on the ground. My phone beeped, and I turned my head to look for it right has he jumped on my stomach, grazing my right breast. It hurt more than my stomach. I lift up y shirt and my bra and feel the area, down at the very base of my breast. There's a painful lump there. I don't do self examinations and my last exam was 3 months ago or so. I checked my other breast and there's absolutely nothing in the area. I was wondering if I should make an appointment now, or wait until tomorrow? I was thinking tomorrow in case it's a fluke and goes away. I don't want to waste the doctor's time.

Answers
1) Don't waste dr's time or your money. Your son hurt your breast, not cancer. Take some advil. - april

2) I honestly don't feel waiting one day would hurt. You just may have bumped it & were not aware of it. I've also heard breast cancer usually doesn't hurt, that's the reason females are unaware they have it! Just wait a day or so, see if it goes away. IF IF you haven't had a mamo in the past year, by all means DO IT. The very best to you!^ - Bob R

How does diabetes increase charley horses?... The last couple days, he's gotten these charley horses within 60-90 minutes of eating a banana. He takes Novolog (orange pen) and another that I can't remember the name of. The charley horse today was so bad his legs, both of them, locked up entirely. I have him soaking in a warm bath since I fear eating another banana will only make it worse.

Some other FYI: His diabetes is poor-moderately controlled at best. He does mild/light exercise (mostly packing our house, running errands, galavanting with the guys, etc), is getting out of the Guard, but is otherwise unemployed.

I'm worried because he had these charley horses in January when he was first diagnosed with diabetes and his blood sugar was 500+. However his sugar hasn't been over 250/300 (on a BAD day) in almost 4 months.

Answers
1) if he is happy with 250/300...keep in mind he will likely die a slow painful death from not properly treating his condition...moderate leg movement and drinking plenty of water usually helps with the charlie horses for everyone, diabetic or not... - Pari Lee

2) I`m not sure diabetes actually cause it.Nutritional deficiencies,yes.For one thing,many banannas today come from cloned trees,so it is doubtfull you are getting any real potassium from them.For another thing,celiac can cause severe deficiencies.Need to get the diabetes under control.Avoid white flour and sugar.Eat raw fruits and veggies.Green tea balances blood sugar.Taking a good multi vit and mineral supplement may help,and taking extra potasium and magnesium may help,and calcium.Keeping in mind that hard vitamin pills are impossible to digest.Need capsule or liquid form of vitamins.No processed food or GMOS.Eat organic,and sprouted organic wheat,if you want to eat wheat. - lioness

red mark moving across body?... I've had a spot on my back for ages. I have pretty good skin on my face and the rest of my body so I've never really paid much attention to it. I noticed the other day that it looks like the spot is moving gradually across my back, and leaving a weird scar-like mark behind it. It looks like a massive scar that's really old, like a healed operation scar. Never had an operation there and the spot is causing no pain. I'm not fiddling with it or anything and it's been there for as long as I can remember. Just wondering, is there some really obvious explanation for it that I've missed? Little bit worried that it's moving across my back.

Answers
1) This seems a bit out of the ordinary. Maybe you should go see a physician just to get it checked out. - Mike

2) yeah you should consult to an doctor. - leave out all the rest

3) Probably go to the doctor. It might be a tic (don't want to freak you out) but that is a tiny bug that burrows itself into your scin. All they have to do to remove it is to burn it or freeze it out (painless). - Jake Foster

I started to feel sick and then found a tick...?... I am feeling sick at my stomach, having aches and pains all throughout my body, am really cold, and have a fever. I take some Tylenol and feel better for a few hours but then start to feel sick again. I found the tick after I started to feel sick and removed it. Without thinking, I flushed it. It was brown with a little bit of a white collar? Should I see a doctor?

Also, there is no telling how long the tick was attached but I live in an area with a lot of ticks.

Answers
1) Yes, go see a doctor. You might have contracted something from the tick. - Lollipop

2) There was an article on the news the other day about how there are new breeds of tics that are evolving, and how dangerous they are. I would definitely head to the doctors asap as a necessary precaution. - Kat

3) Yes you should see a doctor as soon as you can. Ticks spread a lot of horrible diseases. I don't think you should worry because most of them can be cured, but seeing a doctor cant hurt you. - MecHa

4) You need to see a doctor, the kind of tick may matter, but could not matter at all as the region in which you picked up the tick may only have one species, making your description not required.

You may have lymes disease, go read about the symptoms and check for the bulls-eye around the tick bite to see if you have it or not. No bulls-eye, no lymes disease. - Tom

About how long will surgery take for a self inflicted gun shot to the head?... My friend tried to commit suicide about two hours ago, and so far there hasn't been any news. I'm just worried and would like a time frame of how long the surgery might last. So far the silver lining is that he's in the 1/3rd of people with cranial bullet wounds that survive the trip to the hospital. Would anyone happen to know what his chances of survival might be too? I'm really worried. Serious answers only please. :(

Answers
1) There's going to be a lot of damage. Time frame depends on how he shot himself and what kind of damage has been inflicted. Survival rate at this point, if he made it to the hospital at all increases dramatically. It's going to be touch and go. He's probably no doing too hot, but be confident, he's in the care of his surgeons, they'll do everything they can to help him. Like I said, the fact that he survived the trip to the hospital says a lot. - Boots McGooch

2) It is a delicate part of the body. However, due to this fact it can take 10-20 hours easily. The intricacy of the brain means that he is expected to go through about 4 more soon and that is just the average and depends on the severity. In addition, he will be in a hospital for 2-5 months again depending on the severity. However, the bright side is that the brain is highly adaptable and that these people are trained severely in order to do this work and this is probably about their 200th surgery (at least) if you are in an urban area. - Brandon

3) What you are about to read will be upsetting. I'm truly sorry for what I will say and if you cant bare the pain, please, dont read it. Injuries like this can affect people in many drastic ways and I am just trying to give you the picture so you dont get your hopes up too much.

You'll need to prepare yourself for the fact their personality is likely to change drastically if they survive, in many unpredictable ways. He could forget large portions of his life, people, the ability to speak or remember, the ability to hear, see, inhibitions, he may become more docile, incontinent, anything. If I were you, I would be cautious about getting my hopes up. Be supportive for the family and offer them kind words, but its a gunshot wound to the head and the chance of the individual dying of internal bleeding, oxygen deprivation to the brain, infection, sub-dural haemorrhaging, etc and their effects on his brain if he survives them, will be grave. But the fact is, what if he missed his brain all together? What if he went through the front of his face to the back ,or through the sides, aiming too low? He may be completely mentally capable and just lose his sense of smell, or an eye, or merely just find it a bit more difficult to chew. From his intentions however, its likely that he did aim for the brain.

I'm truly sorry for your situation and for your friend. I suffer from depression and find this mans story the worst of them all. - Tom

Question 1
can high blood pressure be cured?...

Answers
1) Most conditions are not cured, but they are treated and regulated in various ways. - ed

2) There is no treatment or magic pill that can 'cure' high blood pressure. That said there are numerous medications that can be prescribed that will keep the condition under control.

Changes to lifestyle can also have a dramatic affect on your blood pressure - stress, drinking alcohol and smoking all can raise it. As can taking too much salt and not eating a healthy diet.

Basically the best way to treat high blood pressure is to treat with medication from your doctor and enhance this with the healthy lifestyle changes.

There is a type of high blood pressure that is only experienced in women when they are pregnant. This type only will disappear shortly after the birth of the baby and doesn't always return. - Julie G

But even after a couple of weeks the little bumps are still on my scalp. So I'm assuming it's the Head & Shoulders shampoo. But I have used Pantene before and it didn't give me the bumps, but as soon as I started using Head & Shoulders the itchy bumps on my scalp appeared, plus my slight dandruff is still there.

Question 5
Can I get diabetic medication prescribed if I’m uninsured?... I've developed all the symptoms of diabetes and a blood glucose meter has consistently shown my sugars at elevated (300+) levels. I can usually "feel" when my sugars get REALLY high, especially when I'm sleeping because I'll have to wake up nearly every hour to pee and when I do wake up my mouth is extremely dry. I’ve also got a wound on my foot that’s taken months to heal and it’s still not completely healed.

Anyway, I don’t have any income and no health insurance and I really should be on medication to keep my glucose levels under control, but I don't know how to get them prescribed to me without paying a couple hundred dollars to see a doctor. I would be able to afford the generic prescription if I could find a way to get it prescribed to me.

Do I have any options?

Answers
1) medicaid might cover it talk to a county social worker... - hotchickagirl422

2) Find a clinic (sometimes free). Hospitals sometimes have these. This is why doctors get free samples.

Drug companies are giving drugs to people who cannot pay for them. This is different than the free samples. You will have to see a doctor.

Don't give up your sugars are too high for this to happen. When I did not have insurance I would find a doctor who would give a very discounted cost for cash. Remember the free samples. They all get them.

Best of luck.

Which organs help fight disease?... i need help for science. ANYONE?!

Answers
1) Your arms, because they can just punch the diseases away. - jared h

2) lymphoid organs - Soderz

3) The whole system is connected and I would say that all organs contribute to keep you healthy. The heart for instance circulates blood which brings oxygen to your cells and keep the other organs working. The lungs infuse that oxygen into the blood stream, the stomach breaks down the food, the intestines pull nutritious elements from the food, the kidneys clean up, etc.
Each organs performs a special task to help all the others and if one of them stops or malfunctions, the whole system shuts downs and diseases or death occur.
Breathe clean air, eat good food, drink clean water so any organ don't get damaged over time. - francoro31

My mom won't take me to the doctor and I think I have cancer?

2011-06-09T22:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
My mom won't take me to the doctor and I think I have cancer?... I am 13 and I have all of the symptoms of ovarian cancer and my ovaries have been hurting bad recently. I told my mom that if I went that they would call me crazy and send me home. I really feel like I have this. She won't take me and I just told her about this and I have been having them for about 6 or 8 months. Also I am a vegitarian.

Answers
1) Cramps? Have you had your period yet? - Fish

2) go to your school doctor so they can do a check :D - Thisisela

3) Ovarian cancer is symptom free. That why pap tests are done.
You do not have ovarian cancer, you are a bit of a hypochondriac. - Casey

4) Tell you what - you save up your money and when you have enough to pay for the doctors visit you go tell mommy. I bet your symptoms suddenly disappear when you have to pay to have them checked out. - Mark IX 3rd Account

5) You don't have cancer
what you are experiencing is

take midol, or tylenol and warm heating pad.

it hurts so bad.
it goes away when you have a baby, unfortunately - Bon Bon

6) Sweetie have you had your period yet? Period cramps are usually in the same area, and is the same kind of pain. If you go to youru doctor and tell him/her your having bad period cramps, there are certain painkillers they can give you that will help.
:) - Callie Collins

7) Well, instead of telling your mother you have ovarian cancer because you are not sure of it. Tell her that your stomach has been hurting for 6-8 months and you would like to be thoroughly examined, just in case there is anything internally damaging your body. You can go to your Pediatrician and tell him/her about it. Your Doctor will probably be able to refer you to other specialists that will help you diagnose your problem. You should probably go with your mother or parent, since it is your first time. - SummerRise

8) You should go to the doctor by yourself, it may really is something bad. You don`t wanna die just because your mom didn`t let you go to see a doctor. That`s not so cool.

Just tell your doctor you`ve been feeling off (don`t mention about the cancer right away, tell him that after he tells you everything he needs to say) - Death

9) Let's see... you're 13, no wait, you're 17 with a 3 year old child, no wait, you're married and pregnant, no wait, you want to move to paris but don't know french, no wait, you speak french and your husband speaks italian..

Question 5
Is there a way to stop being allergic to dogs?... Ok some say that you can stop not by medications. But being around dogs or getting used to it will i be less allergic or change to worse. I love my dog and i don't want to kick him out. The only time im allergic if there not clean and have alot of fur. So now we have to shave the dog. Just trim. Then i would stop sneezing or being allergic. Being around other dogs i don't get allergic not like before it was worse. Now it's not that bad. Is it that i'm getting used to it or does it mean that it would get worse later on? What can do?
:(

Answers
1) You can't just 'stop' being allergic. The best way is to take allergy meds, but there are other options such as shots. No, you cannot get 'used to' your allergies. But it's common to have certain allergies when you're younger and they kind of fade away as you grow older, or vice versa. - VD

2) When you are surrounded by dogs or very close to one, I'd think your body would get used to it. Also there is a way to make you allergy disappear Medically(: ask your doctor about it!:D my sister was thinking about it but what you pretty much do, is you get a shot every week for 5 yrs to get rid of an allergy. I know it sounds horrible (I mean for 5 yrs?!) BUT think about the allergy disappearing?(; my sister chose not to do it, because you might have to repeat the treatment for long lasting effects, but its still an option. Either way it's just a form of getting used to it.
Good luck(: - Kaity

3) If allergies are a true problem and interfere with your lifestyle, I'd talk to your doctor about allergy shots.

Allergy shots are NOT a medication. Instead, they are an "extract" of what you are allergic to. The doctor injects you weekly with a tiny amount of whatever you're allergic to so your body gets used to it. The trick is that they start with a REALLY small dose so your immune system doesn't notice it, then gradually increase the dose over time until you're no longer sensitive to it.

Just being around the dog won't make the allergy go away, because your body is constantly fighting it. Because you already have the dog though, you have a little bit of a tolerance you can't feel. If you get rid of your dog now and turn around and get a new one 10 years from now, your symptoms will be a LOT worse.

If you aren't content taking a daily indoor/outdoor allergy medication (such a Zyrtec, which is really cheap honestly) talk to your doc about allergy shots. They may be a good option for you. Like I said, it's not a medication.

EDIT: Something that bothers a lot of people about allergy shots is the fear of needles. Don't worry about it. I had a fear of needles before I got my shots, but these aren't like normal injections. Instead of jabbing you in the arm and injecting a large amount of fluid into your muscle, they take a short little pin and poke a few drops of the "extract" into the fat of your arm. Though you might feel a little itchy and irritated afterwards (after all, you're allergic to it), the "injection" itself you don't even feel. - Jasmine

Stepped on a rusted nail but it barely broke skin. Should I go see a doctor for tetnus?

Stepped on a rusted nail but it barely broke skin. Should I go see a doctor for tetnus?... I was walking in woods and I stepped on a rusted nail. Went through the whole shoe. but it barely pricked me and bled just a tiny bit. Should I see a doctor for a tetnus shot?
Please and thank you for the answers.

Answers
1) You're good. Plus a tetanus shot lasts 10 yrs. If u had one in the last 10 yrs ur good. - Mr Dickman

2) I wouldn't worry about this scratch, but if you are due for a tetanus shot you should definitely get one. - Ally

3) better to be safe than sorry. Tiny fragments of metal or rust may have contaminated the wound. - Daniel Holmes

4) The same thing happened to me, except it was from a rusty nail on a skate ramp.
All i did was run it under warm water and put peroxide on it with a band-aid. Good as new in a few days... - Anna Blue

5) I believe if you look at the Tetanus statistics you will see that only about 15 people got tetanus last year in the entire United States. It has become extremely rare because we don't have animals on the streets anymore like we used to before cars. An antibiotic will work as well as a poison injection of tetanus vaccine, but the chances of you getting tetanus from that rusty nail is extremely rare. Rusty nails have not been linked to tetanus anyway, that is a myth.

Answers
1) The diagnosis of AIDS as a separate problem and its underlying cause in the beginning of the 1980s. Without the ability to diagnose AIDS and HIV, we'd have trouble treating or managing HIV and AIDS. - Zarn

2) NONE, absolutely none. HIV is a virus and they are not even sure it causes AIDS. Some believe it does, but many people are now immune to HIV infections. Like all infective diseases, the human race will become immune to it over time. More people got small pox from the vaccine than the disease, just like polio where more people got polio from the vaccine than from the disease. Small pox was eliminated from the human race by improved sanitation, better personal hygiene, and quarantine than anything else. HIV will take the same course over time.

2) You can never be too careful especially with high BP. You should set an appointment with your doctor to make that check-up earlier and explain to him all your symptoms. It's okay if it will turn up to be nothing but just headaches but you can never be too sure.

Also, ask him about omega 3 fish oil supplements if you're on any other drug because omega 3s can help lower triglyceride levels to protect your heart from our high BP. You're still very young, you might want to add exercise to your lifestyle change or just brisk walking or jogging. Cardio exercises like that will help a lot.

3) At your age I highly doubt you have issues with your blood pressure. But it never hurts to go to the doctor. - Jenna do Brasileira

4) High blood pressure usually causes no symptoms and high blood pressure often is labeled "the silent killer." People who have high blood pressure typically don't know it until their blood pressure is measured.
Sometimes people with markedly elevated blood pressure may develop:
•headache,
•dizziness,
•blurred vision,
•nausea and vomiting, and
•chest pain and shortness of breath.
People often do not seek medical care until they have symptoms arising from the organ damage caused by chronic (ongoing, long-term) high blood pressure. The following types of organ damage are commonly seen in chronic high blood pressure:
•Heart attack
•Heart failure
•Stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA)
•Kidney failure
•Eye damage with progressive vision loss
•Peripheral arterial disease causing leg pain with walking (claudication)
•Outpouchings of the aorta, called aneurysms
About 1% of people with high blood pressure do not seek medical care until the high blood pressure is very severe, a condition known as malignant hypertension.
•In malignant hypertension, the diastolic blood pressure (the lower number) often exceeds 140 mm Hg.
•Malignant hypertension may be associated with headache, lightheadedness, nausea, vomiting, and stroke like symptoms
•Malignant hypertension requires emergency intervention and lowering of blood pressure to prevent brain hemorrhage or stroke.
It is of utmost importance to realize that high blood pressure can be unrecognized for years, causing no symptoms but causing progressive damage to the heart, other organs, and blood vessels. - Caiyuan Li

Help please!

Answers
1) This might sound redundant, but get a bar of soap, wet it, and rub it on your face. Don't rinse for atleast 10 minutes. It dries your acne up and most of the time prevents it from reappearing. Worked for me and it was totally by accident. - Oscar Chavarin

2) While ur friend is driving, open your door as the car is moving at a high speed and lay your face on the road firmly. Itl clean everything right off. Especially the acne - HarviyL

3) I have been putting honey and crushed, dry oatmeal on my face. Wait about 5-10 minutes and wash off with Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit Acne Wash Cream (cream is less drying than the gel version). Sorry it is actually 2 steps but the honey/dry oatmeal works well and it is cheap. Doing this has allowed me to stop taking tetracycline for my acne.

Some sites say to cook the oatmeal into a mask but this is more work, try this first and then if needed you can cook it. Just google "acne oatmeal, honey mask" and you should find this. - purplebutterfly

6) if its really bad your doctor can prescribe urea cream , it really helps alot. also, there is an over the counter lotion called Amlactin that works pretty well too - ♠Mrs Reznor♠

7) try to soak your feet in warm water with epsom salt for 10-20 minutes daily.. after doing this, take a foot file (or even a finger/toe nail file) to carve down the callous'. the hard & dry part of your feet are thick skin built up, otherwise known as callous'. putting lotion on you feet will also help.. try to keep them very moisturized!
hope this helps! (: - xmisshaleyx

Question 4
My cousin has got meningitis im scared!?... can someone tell me what the basic meaning of it is and can it be treated i heard it can cuz perminant brain damage im scared he is in hospital on a drip please tell me this in basic terms

Answers
1) meningitis is inflammation of the meninges of the brain . it is fatal because it infects the brain itself . however it could be treated usually in the intensive care unit by massive dose of antibiotics ,intravenous fluids . palliative treatments like complete bed rest . pain relivers and good nutrition . - lolit

2) Untreated, bacterial meningitis is almost always fatal. Viral meningitis, in contrast, tends to resolve spontaneously and is rarely fatal. With treatment, mortality (risk of death) from bacterial meningitis depends on the age of the patient and the underlying cause. Of the newborn patients, 20–30% may die from an episode of bacterial meningitis. This risk is much lower in older children, whose mortality is about 2%, but rises again to about 19–37% in adults. Risk of death is predicted by various factors apart from age, such as the pathogen and the time it takes for the pathogen to be cleared from the cerebrospinal fluid, the severity of the generalized illness, decreased level of consciousness or abnormally low count of white blood cells in the CSF. Meningitis caused by H. influenzae and meningococci has a better prognosis compared to cases caused by group B streptococci, coliforms and S. pneumonia. In adults, too, meningococcal meningitis has a lower mortality (3–7%) than pneumococcal disease. - Yee Yee

3) Meningitis is a bacterial infection of the membranes covering the brain and the spinal chord. It can be caused by many different things, but most often it is treated with antibiotics. The IV drip that your cousin has is probably being used to treat or prevent some possible symptoms of meningitis (most notably brain swelling, shock, and seizures).

Again, I don't know what type of meningitis your cousin has, but most types of viral meningitis are usually not too serious and clear up after about 2 weeks without any major complications.

I know it's scary, but talking to the doctor or nurses can be very comforting. They will be able to give you way more information than we can here on the internet.

I wish your cousin the very best. :) - SummerExpat

Question 2
What works for getting rid of acne scars?... I have seen the home remedies and have searched the types of creams, but I would like some people to comment with experience on what has worked for them, and what hasn't.

Answers
1) your best bet would be a cosmetic procedure such as a chemical peel, or, in worse cases, dermabrasion. Creams take years with little results, and are not guaranteed to work. In the end, you may end up spending more on the creams than paying for a single procedure.

for more info, consult a dermatologist. - anony mouse

2) I got a prescription for RETIN-A MICRO® (tretinoin gel). It's only available by prescription. Basically the retinol (stuff we see in commercials) but the real deal only available from a doctor. It worked like magic. Didn't erase scars but most definately made my skin look 100% better.

I've heard that vitamin C based moisterizers work really well too. Thing is; once a jar of vitamin C based cream is opened it looses most of it's potency. Avon makes a good one probably the best for your buck deal. - irishmama1969

3) Creams are generally slow to work, if at all. Did see a tv documentary where they used laser therapy with great success removing all kinds of scarring. The patients looked great after only a week or so. - Mum

4) The quickest, surely to work, solution would be laser treatment. Sure, there are other solutions, but they take longer, and longer usually means more pain or spending. Before treatment you do need to eliminate existing acne - Lab Series and ProActive works for me. - Heero Yuy

5) I suggest TRY Scarxus!
I use it 7 weeks, my acne scars was completely gone!

How do I know if i'm OCD?... To start this off.
Whenever i move something somewhere that i am comfortable with it, if someone moves it, it will get under my skin and i can't think about anything but that. And it makes my whole body feel weird. Like say i site a candle in the middle of my table, and then someone moves it. it bothers me, not cause they moved it, but because i feel like it's not right. and my whole family knows that it bothers me and that i cant stop how it makes me feel. But they always do stuff like that. and they know it gets to me. And they get mad when i say something about it or when i fix it. And they don't wanna help me work with it. And say i go out somewhere or i wake up the next morning, the first thing i have to do is go around my house and put everything back in it place like how it was before i left or went to bed. and everyday it's the same thing. I think it's either OCD or my family is just lazy and sloppy and they don't wanna help me feel comfortable. Like they will leave things hanging off of tables, or take food and dishes out of the cabinet and not put them back up, cause they know when i see it i will have to do it or it bothers me. Is the OCD or is it something else? it's minor things, but it still gets to me. Please help.

Answers
1) It's possible, but OCD is a very complex disorder. If you're genuinely concerned and want some help, I recommend seeing a psychologist. - anony mouse

2) According to me ; yes its OCD . Your parents do not have any idea how it make you feel anxious and upset . Why ? Because they do not know nothing about this disorder . Go on Mayo clinic site and read about OCD and print it on a paper ; and show it to your family - lala

My son is allergic to pet hair - what pet could he have?... My 9 year old son is allergic to pet hair but is desperate for a pet. We used to have a bearded dragon which he loved, but unfortunately it died a couple of months ago. We are now looking for another pet but are not sure what options we have. A friend suggested a tortoise and we have been investigating that option. Another suggested a bird - but feathers play his asthmas up big time. Any other suggestions?

Answers
1) Are you 100% sure that it is indeed the fur of animals that he is allergic too? Many people are allergic to the dander or the saliva or even the food and think it is the fur.

If you are definately sure it is the fur then yes, anything in the fish or reptile dept would be good. Bearded dragons are great. If he took good care of it, he might be ready for a snake. (Are you? LOL).

Snake make awesome pets. Talk to various reptile groups (ever major area has atleast one) and they can help you decide which would fit your lifestyle the best. Not a fan of pet stores so they could also help you get one and all of it's proper care and housing.

Best of luck! - Karma Thompson

Question 5
What should I do with these pimples or cysts?... I have the cysts or nodules on my chest. I used to have only 1 last year but now I have 2, close together. And I feel like the 3rd one is coming up because I can feel the lump underneath my skin.
I had tried to squeeze it or pop it out many times but it wouldn't come out. I figured out that the heads are really deep under my skin and I feel no pain from attacking these pimples (I thought they might be some sort of pimples). Absolutely no pain.
I went to see my doctor in March. She refused to touch it and only gave me benzoly peroxide. I have been using it but those things are still on my chest.

Answers
1) You should STOP trying to pop/squeeze them, immediately.

Cysts like those are highly infectious and contagious. The newer ones probably formed BECAUSE you squeezed them, and infected the nearby pores.

What should you do? Continue using the meds you were prescribed AS prescribed, don't stop unless you're getting a bad reaction, and if nothing happens then bring it up once again to your doctor. - Xander

2) The US will not do it for one major reason: They are in a HUGE debt. Other reasons might be they don't care. (Some do some don't). Last but not least, it will take too much time. I would love to help. I love to help ALL RACES that are in serious trouble in this world. - Zuki

3) yes. America started the HIV virus when we were creating a vaccine and used monkeys to fertilize it. Instead we created aids. So its only fair. - VomitsHerMind

Question 1
Can you get hiv from protective sex?... Considering nothing breaks or anything..?

Answers
1) unfortunately yes you can. the risk is much less with a condom but any time you have sex with an infected person there is a chance of contracting the disease. - singthunder

2) Probably.... Yeah it can. Its not 100% protective. -.- - ☪Queen Usagi of The Moon PWNS ALL!☪

3) I believe that the medical world will find a cure. Hopefully in our lifetime. The only problem is, when they do find a cure, something else is going to pop up that is even worse. But that will be a different battle. - Shawn D

4) Unfortunately not. Cancer is a collective term for approximately 200 different diseases. Every cell type in your body can (in principle) develop into its own type of cancer. So it is not all that surprising that we don't have, and most likely won’t find a single cure for all cancers.

That being said, many cancers are cured on a daily basis. Most of them through surgery, but some of them are treated with additional radio-/chemotherapy. And some cancers are cured by chemotherapy alone.

On the internet there are many claims of miraculous "natural" cancer cures. Here some of them are listed, with links to sites explaining what is wrong with them: http://anaximperator.wordpress.com/2011/02/25/suppressed-by-scientists-and-big-pharma-the-hidden-cancer-cure-but-which-one/

There are lots of reasons why the establishment really want to find a cure. Here are some of them:
1) Owners/employees (And their love ones) of pharmaceutical companies suffer from cancer too.
2) Researchers wouldn't be able to keep their mouth shut if they found a miraculous cure or even a major breakthrough.
3) Progress in cancer treatment is happening even though not as fast as we all would like to. Some cancers are even easily cured.
4) Pharmaceutical companies wouldn't lose money for finding a cure - They would increase their income considerably.
5) Also members of governments (and their love ones) sometimes get cancer

Question 3
What can cause heart palpitations?... The past couple of weeks I've been dealing with minor heart palpitations.
Nothing severe, and it only seems to be happening at night.
The first time I had it was one night, I had a very stressful day dealing with family issues and I had severe anxiety throughout the whole day. I was lying in bed and about to fall asleep but suddenly my heart would beat very hard occasionally and my heartbeat was irregular. It would also catch my breath so my breathing became irregular for a while as well. It kept happening every 5 minutes or so for about 30 minutes. My friend said it was due to anxiety and stress.
Since then, I've had palpitations maybe 4 or 5 times, but it was only for a minute or so each time, so not as bad compared to the first time.
I think it keeps happening because I keep dreading going to bed because I worry it will happen again, so I'm very worried and anxious, but obviously I am aware it can be anything.

Anyway, my question is, can stress and anxiety cause heart palpitations?

I'm going to my family doctor this week and will get blood tests done and such, but I'm just wondering in general.

Answers
1) death? - HerbalPhil Wellness Warrior!

2) Yes i get them everyday because of anxiety.And sometimes they are so bad i feel like im having a heart attack it can be really scary . - MimMie

3) Get some magnesium... NOW Foods makes a good one - "Reverse Ratio 2:1" - more magnesium than calcium. Take three of those a day for a couple weeks - 800 mgs/day.

ALSO - and very important - since this is happening at night - this can be "sleep apnea" which is real hard on your heart. You might not be breathing well at night - and this can lead to congestive heart failure. So stick that in the back of your head - you might need to treat that.

But to your question - OH YES - anxiety causes lots of heart palpitations - but don't rule out the physical reasons as well. - Vulcan

4) In Eastern medicine, this is a classic description of an allergy. I would suggest you look up a NAET practitioner in your area (go to NAET.com-they have a listing) and clear this before it results in further energy blockages. - Rn4vitality.com

Question 2
What skin condition are my rashes?... I have 4 little red rashes on various parts of my body: the first and most noticeable is the one next to my navel. I have one on each elbow, and the last one is in the middle of my upper arm.

They're all itchy, scaly/flaky, and red. I have had these rashes before about a year or two ago, and was given (I believe) a steroid cream that took care of them. What really gets me, is that they all came back in the same exact spots.

Does anyone know what this could be? I have a Dr's appointment but I won't get in for about a week and a half.

Answers
1) about it you can get information from here http://heansmd42.notlong.com/AAeLx8R - Elspet Vina

2) I think that it should only be obvious that it comes back in the same spot. If you were treated with a steroid cream you most likely had a little problem with eczema or similar allergic rash. It may be annoying, but it is easy to treat. I would guess another steroid cream would be proscribed, they are extremely fast and effective! Just be careful with the steroid cream, it does thin the skin, so use sparingly! - twigs421

3) It's probably rosacea or ezcema - Kelly Willmon

4) It's sort of sounds like Keratosis Pilaris which is a condition where the skin produces too much Keratin and it forms hardness under the hair follicle as well as a red rash at the surface.

There are a lot of different branches of KP some people have it awful. It's actually super common.
Does it look like this?

I was Bitten by a Tick?... I found a tick on my arm, so my mom and I tried to get it to dislodge by using the Hot Needle trick. It didn't come out, and after ten minutes of hot-needling it, the heat killed it. While it was still in my arm! So we yanked it out. Should I panic? Please Help.

Answers
1) well, the head probably sank (er burrowed) into your skin. you could get a sore, or you could get sick... guess it depends on the tick i suppose. though you do probably have a dead tick head in your arm... or check the corpse, if it still has its head your in the clear. - Taner

2) Put it in a ziplock bag and put the bag in the freezer. Bring it to the doctors so they can make sure it's not diseased. - Mo Mo

3) No. Most ticks don't carry Lyme's disease. But get a magnifying glass and make sure you removed the head. - kathryn w

4) I wouldnt panic. But i WOULD go to a doctor to get it checked out and get some blood work done. while it doesnt usually happen, ticks can make you really sick and sometimes causing lime disease. Like i said you shouldnt be panic'ing but definately see a doctor soon. - Jdawgc

For a glucose test 6.0 is good right?... Im not a diabetic but I took a home a1c tst to make sure. I got a 6.0 is it good?

Answers
1) Please see ---> all-home-remedies.com

check out multiple links over there and
I am sure you will find the best solution at this site - Melissa

2) Well, put it this way, I AM diabetic - a type 2 diabetic, and my last A1C was 5.2 (BTW: I'm not on medication, just eating properly) if I remember, so for you to NOT be a diabetic and get a 6, I'd go see your Dr... When a diabetic takes an A1C and gets 6 or above, they're considered to not have good control on their sugar levels. Non-diabetics with that result are considered "borderline" diabetics with a 6. - Brian Kuhn

3) The Hgb A1c blood test can have different normals depending on the lab methods used. However, 6% ( 0.060) or less is the normal hgb A1c for people without diabetes. So your home test is normal.

For people with diabetes, guidelines for the A1c test are typically 7% ( 0.070) or less.

However, if you are anemic your a1c can tend to have a lower reading, when in fact, your levels could be high. A1c tracks your blood glucose levels for the past 3 months. Check with your doctor if you feel you need further testing other than the home A1c in order to get a definitive medical evaluation on your blood glucose levels esp. if you are having symptoms.

Hope this helps. - syl c.

If it is congestion and blowing doesn't do it try a saline nasal spray and if that doesn't do it try a saline nasal WASH.They are available at your local drug store(Walgreen's,CVS,etc.) Don't use plain tap water,it could cause infection.

If it isn't congestion(no mucus comes out when you blow) then it is most likely swolen sinuses.
There are some otc treatments,ask the Pharmacist.If they do not work then you will need a perscription for a steroid spray

Why does it cost to much to "find" the "cure" to AIDS?

2011-05-05T22:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
Why does it cost to much to "find" the "cure" to AIDS?... Celebrities donates MILLIONS OF MILLIONS of money all that money must add up to like several BILLIONS maybe a trillion. Same with charities. its crazy how much money is being put into finding the cure for aids, which feels like impossible because we still haven't found it yet. So where does this money end up? And why does it cost so much? It seems RIDICULOUS to me. Also if the cure were found how much do you think it would cost to get "treatment"? I think you'd have to be rich to get the cure because it cost soooooooooo much trying to make it.
Ok but does it cost a million dollars to do that? That's so crazy. I wouldn't even think about giving millions of dollars to finding the cure to aids because they already have so much. Or do spend it? Like really to do that cell thing does it really cost 10 million dollars? Crazy.

Answers
1) like the common cold, AIDS evolves often. it is nearly impossible because we can not find a cure for a constantly evolving disease. it is a bummer that that is true...but unfortunately it is not likely that we will EVER find a cure. - Zander Day

2) Well, basically AIds is a virus. A virus is very hard to cure because it uses your DNA and cells to reproduce. If you try to kill the virus you end up killing the person. The money is going in to finding ways to selectively kill only the cells that have the AIDS virus in them. There are now ways to slow it's reproduction but no one can find a way to stop it completely. That is why so many HIV positive people don't ever end up with AIDS. As soon as they find a guaranteed way to stop the virus it will be easier to find a way to kill it. - The Mosh Pit Queen: Hoser 4 Life

3) Finding cures for any disease costs a lot of money because a lot of research has to be conducted, both on the disease itself, and trialing treatments to find ones that may be effective. This requires a lot of very expensive laboratory equipment, and skilled scientists. When a treatment is finally found, it has to go through rigorous testing, and, again, this costs money. When a treatment is finally released for general use, it may, initially be expensive, but as more people buy it, the development cost can be spread more, and it becomes cheaper. - justme

4) AIDS is a virus, not a bacteria or infection, so there will never be a "cure," just like there is no medicine that can get you over a common cold. There is, however, treatment, just like there is cold medicine to help ease your cold symptoms.

The treatment for AIDS is commonly reffered to as HAART treatment. It's formally called Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy. Basically, it suppresses the symptoms of AIDS so effectively that in many cases, the virus can no longer be detected in a normal blood test. People on HAART no longer die from AIDS. HAART is very expensive, though, so people in third world countries do not have much access to it. In the US, however, the government will pay for your treatment, so even the poor have access to it (if they seek out the available resources, that is).

The person still has AIDS, though, because once diagnosed with AIDS, you can no longer regress back into being HIV positive (There is a movement trying to change this).

The money donated to AIDS charities don't just go to "finding a cure." They are invested in prevention (mainly through educational programs), treatment for those in third world countries, and education on how to deal with AIDS for those infected and their families.

I hope this helped! - yourjellybaby

5) The research is hard for finding out the
right retro viral capsules for AIDS.
When there extensive research,
it is natural that money is spent like water.
But if achieved, everything is forgotten

Question 4
Help!!! I have super oily skin is there anything that you guys recommend to help control my greasy face?... Oily

Answers
1) Find a cleanser that's not harsh on your skin. I had that problem as a teenager, but many of the "acne" face products weren't good for my skin. Try using an Aveeno oatmeal soap bar, unscented. Make sure you use makeup products that are homeogenic and are 100% oil-free. I like to use Clinique's gel lotion. It costs about $20 but lasts a long time.

You might just have to try a lot of different things to find what works best for you. I still have to shop around quite a bit to find the right makeups and soaps. - Laurie

2) Angela,

It sounds like you just need a good facial astringent. Facial astringent is as good in generic form as it is in brand name form since it all has the same effective ingredients (alcohol). The generics only cost less. The alcohol base to astringents will sap out all of the oil that clogs your skin. Just apply a fair amount to a cotton ball and make sure that you thoroughly cleanse your face using circular motions. Even get your neck, behind your ears and on the back of your neck and shoulders (these areas collect A LOT of oil). As you are cleaning your skin pay attention to your cotton ball and when you see the cotton ball has collected a good amount of dirt and oil just throw it away and repeat. Do this about every other day because if you overdo it then it will make your skin dry and deprive it of the natural oil balance that it needs. This should help, thanks.

I just got back from ER, does this sound right to you???!!?

2011-04-29T22:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
I just got back from ER, does this sound right to you???!!?... I went to ER complaining of severe headache, I mean, BAD head ache. with me, if I ask to go to the Dr then you know it's bad. Anyway severe head ache, vomiting and nausea, and dizziness.
The Dr prescribed me Antibiotics (amoxycellin), vitamin C, antihistamine, and cough drops?
All he did was press on my head and asked if it hurt. Then a shot in my butt cheek. Brushed off all of my questions.
I'm thinking about not taking ANY of these medicines! None of them sound like they have anything to do with head ache?! Didnt even give me a pain killer ?

Answers
1) I agree with everyone who is mentioning a sinus infection.
You may also have sinusitis, which can feel like a migraine. It can cause severe headaches, dizziness, nausea, toothaches, facial pain, and sensitivity to light.
Take the meds. If you're not feeling better in a couple of days, follow up with your family physician.
You can also call the hospital and ask for a copy of your medical records from that visit. It should list the illness the doctor thought you had. - Areli Thomson

2) amoxycellin is used for bladder and ear infections, majorly, mostly infections caused by bacteria. antihistamine can treat hayfever, runny noses and itchy, watery eyes. i dont know why he gave you cough drops and vitamin c as i dont think they help with any of your symptoms... i would go to another dr. - C M

3) OOhh woow i wouldnt either that dosent sound like a doctor at all!!!!! you should go somewhere els oR sumthing and why the fudge would he give you cough drops hes probabily high or sumthing hahah anyway back to siriousness do not take ANY of them he dosent sound that hes sure about what hes doin !! and a but cheek injection is pointleess!! uhg doctors these days!!! any ways good luck and God Bless!!!!!!!! - Lola Qwerty

4) If your headache was due to allergies, then an antihistamine would help. If it were due to a cold, then vitamin C might help. If it's due to a sinus infection, then antibiotics would help. I'm not sure what the cough drops would do. If you need a pain killer, take aspirin or tylenol or another over-the-counter med. If you are having the worst headache of your life, then you are potentially looking at something serious like a brain aneurysm, but it will take more than pain meds to fix that. The doctor probably didn't want to order expensive tests or prescribe narcotic pain meds when most headaches are resolved with time or over-the-counter pain meds. - Amaretta

5) the medications are for the vomiting, nausea, dizziness and to help fight it off.
It just sounds like you've got the flu to me. - Candie Barr

6) Thats one problem is people demand painkillers. The doc probably thinks you have a bad sinus infection, what he has prescribed indicates so. Try the meds as he prescribed and if your not better see your own doctor not the ER. The days of throwing out painkillers are now coming to an end. Doctors are treating conservatively more and more. - TNH

7) Doctors test for sinus problems by pressing on your sinuses. If your headache was caused by something else, you wouldn't feel more discomfort when he pressed on your head. For instance, if you had a severe migrane, touching your head wouldn't make it any worse.

Sinus infections can definitely cause severe headaches. They are often brought on because of a cold - which is what the vitamin C and cough drops are for. Antihistamines are for the inflammation - when you have an infection you also have inflammation, which makes it hard for the sinuses to drain on their own.

The antibiotics are for the infection itself - normally sinus infections are caused by bacteria. - marie

3) Yup. 72 hour hold. - Layna

4) A friend of mine went to a drug re-hab center for 21 hours, so I imagine going to a mental hospital for 3 days is reasonable. Most likely the person involved was only being examined for signs of a mental disorder and had not actually started mental treatment/re-cooperation. - RuneKey

5) Yes, a family member of mine did that, but he was forced to through the law enforcement. It costs a lot, and is a very difficult thing for family to deal with. If you have a problem and are young, seek the assistance of councilors. If you're older, seek the assistance of a physiologist. While it is possible, there are alternatives that aren't as extreme and often don't require a good reason to do it. Good luck. - Nicky

1) I know this sounds very weird, but you can use Horse shampoo! It sounds strange but it's for humans too, and it's very very gentle. You could probably use baby shampoo too. But if it's some that causes actual breakage of the skin, you'll probably want to use the 62$ shampoo for the best. I know it's expensive, but ask your doctor about these other options! - Gilbert Spaghetti

2) grandma's Lye soap. - Mz Brittian

3) I found the Pantene Shampoo works ok for me as long as I do not have hard water. I am very light skin (irish ethnic) but if i go to a tanning salon for a minimum 6 mins in a standard bed will rid my eczema. - BrewCrew

Question 5
i am about 5 weeks pregnant and before i found out i was doing NOS, Ecstasy, cocaine,LSD and drinking?... for 3 weekends in a row. I want to know if any possibilities i have harmed the baby???

Answers
1) Probably not. People always exaggerate about the impact of drugs and alcohol on babies. Yours probably only gonna have three legs, but that's actually pretty cool. He'll be good at soccer. - Ike Ickiouras

2) You are only one month pregnant and to be honest with you the baby is still a little thing that you have to see under a microscope. But you HAVE to go to your doctor immediately and talk to him about any defects or harm to the baby. I would not take any chances and risk birth defects. Stop drinking, stop the drugs and go to your doctor. They would understand and your privacy is well kept. - Wendy

3) Get an ultrasound as soon as possible and be sure to tell your doctor about all your drug use! They will inform you of the harm that may have been caused based on the drugs you have been using. BUT YOU DO NEED TO GET THE ULTRASOUND. Don't put it off because of fear. - Lizz Riv

4) Those are quite a few drugs, and drugs that heavy as well as alcohol can definitely have a negative effect on a fetus. Basically, whatever you put into yourself, you're also putting into the fetus. It may be early enough, but the effects could be from deformities or metal disabilities all the way to death. It's very smart to be careful of what you put into your body for yourself, let alone an infant that could be brought into the world. The best thing to do to find out if anything is wrong is to wait and have doctors involved. Let them know what you took and they will monitor the fetus as it grows carefully. Let this be a wake-up call however not to put these things in your body. Allow the pregnancy be your detox. If you continue to do the drugs, it's possible to drug the baby, and then the baby will end up having to go through detox too, and that's not fair at all. Good luck and I hope the best for your new pregnancy. - Nicky

My friend is really white and she cant get a tan?... My friend is super white and when she tries to tan nothing happens or she gets sunburnt. What I wanna know is Could she be allergic to the sun and is that possible? Why cant she tan???

1) Some people just have fair skin, and there skin is to sensitive so it is not easy for them to tan or if they do they go red.

It will be better for her to use a cream that builds up a tan, they are lot's of different types in the shop, that is also better for her skin then getting sunburnt. - Chelsie

2) She CAN tan, just has to step her skin up to it! 1st time in the bed only 6 min, next time within a day or 2 (no more than that) go up to 7 or 8. Some skin types have a hard time "accepting" the tan. Also tell her to take a shower or work out JUST BEFORE going tanning so her pores are open and be sure to use lotion! - Jennifer K

I have these strecthmark looking things right on the back of my thigh right under my butt cheak. I cant tell if their stretchmarks or not because there red looking lines and ive seen stretch marks arent they usually white? well what do you think i could be, and should i see a doctor. AND what should i do to get rid of them?
thanks for your advice(:

Answers
1) Stretch marks and dark skin remedies

The easiest remedy to get rid of stretch marks is using lemon juice. The juice of lemon is known for its bleaching properties. You can apply the juice on your marks and let it dry there
Applying Vitamin E on the marks is also an effective way to fade them. If you don't have Vitamin E oil, use the contents of a capsule of Vitamin E on your marks.

For dark lips you can use the lemon juice. You can apply this over night and wash it off in the morning. You can use milk cream and turmeric on your lips and your face. This will help to lighten the color of your skin. You can also use beat up the white of a raw egg and add some drops of almond oil to it. Apply this to your face and let it dry before you wash it off. A paste made of gram flour and a few drops of milk is also effective. Add a pinch of turmeric to this and apply on your face and your lips. Let it dry before you wash it off using circular motions. You can also apply Aloe Vera gel on your face. Apply it at bedtime and leave it on over night. Our natural treatment for stretch marks will present to you a wide range of techniques that you can use to make those irritating stretch marks vanish forever.

Cocoa Butter - Cocoa butter is one of the best methods of getting rid of stretch marks. Cocoa butter can be found in many moisturizing lotions and creams.

However, the best way is to buy a stick of cocoa butter and apply it liberally and regularly over your stretch marks until they disappear.
Vitamins and minerals - The importance of vitamin E as a natural treatment for stretch marks cannot be overstated. The best way is to make a mixture of vitamin E extract, Aloe Vera and cocoa butter and gently apply the mixture over the affected area. Another effective vitamin for fighting stretch marks is vitamin A.

Vitamin A is a key ingredient in many stretch mark removal creams and can also be used a natural treatment for stretch marks. Vitamin K is another powerhouse that can be used to treat stretch marks. Many creams contain vitamin K and these should be applied on the affected area at least twice a day.

In addition you should consume foods that are rich in vitamin K such as green vegetables, tomatoes and dairy products. Zinc is an important mineral that can help to reduce the occurrence of stretch marks. You should consume foods that are rich in zinc such as seeds and nuts especially during times of pregnancy.
Aromatherapy - There are also many aromatherapy oils that are also very effective in treating stretch marks.

Oils containing extracts of lavender have been used for generations to treat stretch marks. Other aromatherapy oils that are also used include chamomile, jojoba, sweet almond and avocado.
Natural apricot scrub - Apricots have therapeutic properties that make them an ideal natural treatment for stretch marks. You can use an apricot-based cream or simply rub an apricot on the affected area of your skin for fast results. - Ovilia Fernandes

2) there not stretch marks i think there cellulite :( thats even worse or maybe its the marking of your undies lol :) - Laura Sassine

3) i seen some commercial with some kind of lotion that suppossed to help - BIGE

4) No they are not stretchmarks. Like you said they are white looking.

5) To me these look like fresh stretch marks. They turn white or a silvery pink color as they heal or go away. Freshies are bright pink purple or a mix of both normally, try rubbing shea butter on them when you wake up and go to bed. Good luck!! - Becca Swindell

6) if theyr not stretch marks from gaining weight then theyr probably from just growing tall of something. usually stretch marks are a bit of a purple color and are inverted. u can go to see a doctor if ur consernd. to get rid of stretch marks they have creams but im not sure if u can really ridith of it all together. - OverMyAge

7) Hellow there.

I would not be worry if i would be you. I don't think so you need to see a doctor.
i have stretch marks on my hips because i used to be really over weighed.
And i got stretchmarks after i start to work on to loos weight. I got them on my biceps close to my shoulders.

They are red until they gonna be healed.Afterwards they gonna turn into the whiteis colour you mentioned earlier. And you won't be able to notice it. Only if you gonna take a close look at it. - Szabi

8) they sound like stretch marks to me. they may start out red and fade over time. im not big either and i have some on my thighs. ive been doing a laser treatment to reduce them. you can start using lotions and body butter to prevent any more! use it on thighs, buttttt, hips, underarms, boobs, anywhere that is prone to stretch marks! lol ummm, they seriously suck....if you started taking birth control that may be the cause. i just found that out when i saw the doctor that did my laser treatment! other then that the cause can be puberty, or just genetics. because you said you wernt fat so its gotta be one of those! GOODLUCK! - Nancy Bell

9) They are most definetly stretch marks. Fresh stretch marks are red or even purple lines. With years the stretch marks that do become old also change in appereance to white or to your skin tone..but definetly not to even your skin tone.

Use the Maderma lotion. I highly recommend it. I've used it myself and it delivers fast results.

Good luck.

Also if you exercise your skin might get toned and you the stretch marks may be no that visible. - PAIX!

How do you get rid of mosquito bites?... I'm on vacation in Hawaii where it is very humid and I am also VERY prone to mosquito bites :( Last night I got 2 mosquito bites on both sides of my arm near my elbow. They swelled up and now there is a HUGE lump on my arm and I can't bend it. Please help they itch like crazy and like I said because of them I can't move my arm. How do I get them to be smaller and not itch???

Answers
1) Rub butter on them. - Davey Joe

2) Cut your arms off. - Juan Alzate

3) The best solution just put your hand in warm water and gentile rub instead of scratching. - Star Shine

4) One of the best ways to tackle mosquito bites is to make a solution of a cup of water to which you have added about 10 crushed aspirins. This can be applied to the bites for instant relief and sanitization. This will also ensure that you are not bitten again, as aspirin will act as a natural repellant. Alternately, you can also apply salt water solution to take care of mosquito bites. This will work the same way. Instead of using plain salt, you can also use Epsom salts or baking soda for the same effect. In order to repel mosquitoes further, you can also add a few drops of organic vinegar to this solution.

Another effective remedy which will provide relief is making a water-based solution of camphor and applying this to the bites. Crush a few pieces of camphor and add them to a cup of water. Let this stand for a couple of days and then use. Similarly, it is believed that applying Vicks Vaporub to the bites will also provide soothing relief as well as prevent mosquitoes from attacking further. Calamine lotion is also an excellent remedy for relief from not just mosquito bites, but bites from all other insects as well. In order to save yourself from such things in the future, it is always useful to adopt preventive measures rather than risk getting bitten.
A good remedy you will find in your kitchen is that ever useful baking soda. Take about two tablespoons of this powder and throw in some water. Mix to get a paste. Try to make it a nice, thick paste which you can then cover your bites with. Something as simple as ice cubes can numb the bites and take care of the itching. Even a cold washcloth would do. This is one of the simplest and the quickest ways of dealing with those annoying bites. It’s one of the cheapest ways too. Ice not only tends to the inflammation but also provides relief from the sting. To ease that pesky itch, you should get your hands on some white vinegar. This is a great cleanser and organic cleanser. Use a few drops on cotton to dab on your bite marks. If you happen to be covered in bites, simply head for a warm bath with about two cups of this vinegar. Apple cider is another alternative. You can even add either vinegar to your paste containing baking soda. If you don’t want to go in for a bath then a hot washcloth will also do. Another home remedy which provides instant escape from the itching is a slice of lemon. Your skin may get better faster thanks to the antioxidants. Just remember to get rid of the seeds first. A soothing lotion is calamine lotion. As far as essential oils go, lavender can do wonders for your bite. Just dab some on your mosquito bite. Witch hazel has also been used in the treatment of mosquito bites. Other essential oils which can help in this case include peppermint and tea tree - Ovilia Fernandes

Please help me anyone who can help.

Answers
1) nose patches or facial scrub - Elizabeth Milewski

2) The build up of sebum and dead cells can be controlled by washing the face regularly with cool water. A paste of yogurt and oatmeal applied to the face and rubbed off after a few minutes, helps to reduce the formation of blackheads and other forms of acne. After having washed the face, pat the skin dry so as to leave it with enough moisture content. Yogurt has anti bacterial properties that remove infection causing bacteria while the absorbent properties of oatmeal reduce the amount of oil that is present in the skin. By rubbing it off gently, the pores are cleaned and open up for undisturbed flow of oil through the ducts of the sebaceous glands. The use of honey has been highly recommended in the removal of blackheads, because it acts as a natural peel and exfoliating agent on the skin.

Aloe is known to be an effective moisturizer and the use of aloe gel is recommended to reduce inflammation caused by blackheads and acne. Besides this, it also prevents scarring of the affected area, thereby reducing blemishes. Known for its anti bacterial properties, the use of a few drops of diluted tea tree oil will help to clear the bacteria that cause the blackheads. Similarly, the citric acid present in lemon juice clears the face of dead skin and increases its elasticity when applied to the face. Be especially careful to dilute the lemon juice in milk cream or water before applying it to the face, as it could damage sensitive skin. Since it also has natural bleaching properties, the lemon juice helps to prevent scarring and will lighten the skin tone as well. Another excellent exfoliating paste could be made by mixing sun dried and powdered orange peels in water. The paste kills bacteria and cleans and refreshes the area of skin to which it is applied. It is advisable to avoid picking of the skin with the nails because the nails carry germs and bacteria that get into the skin and cause the formation of blackheadsTo some extent, dirt does aggravate the condition, as does excessive use of make up. Therefore, these are two things that you need to address. Wash your face regularly using plain water, or maybe a mild soap. Use make up sparingly, and wash off the make up as soon as you return home. You can also steam your face at night, before going to bed. This will both clean and open up the pores.

In addition, you can use some home made face masks and face washes. Mix egg white and honey, adding a pinch of turmeric powder if you like. Apply this mixture to your face and wash it off after half an hour. You can also make a paste of cinnamon powder and lemon juice or honey, and apply it to your face once a day, for half an hour. In addition, when blackheads appear, crush a clove of garlic and gently rub the clove on the blackhead - Ovilia Fernandes

3) Face scrub (not the smooth soapy stuff) also black head are a B****. if you want to pick at it literally scratch off the tip and squeeze until you feel a "pop" type feeling and see either a little tiny white or black seed come out. then, the wound can heel. alot of people squeeze the puss out and go about their day. you can't just squeeze the puss out. you need to squeeze the seed out. also if you'd rather not squeeze it out which is better. just wash your face and/or put a warm to hot cloth over your face and in a couple days it will go away. You're pores are closing up around dirt which causes the pimples and black heads. you need to open your pores by the warm/hot cloth - Samantha Emerson

Question 5
I have a rash that looks like a mix of eczema and bugbites, and i got it from my bf, what is it?... So, I have always had mild eczema, but after I started dating my new boyfriend (of about 3 months) I immediately developed a worse rash where the eczema like patches appear all over my arms, inner elbows, tops of shoulders, and sometimes back and torso. At first it appeared on my legs too. The rash also looks like little red bumps with a tiny red scab in the middle, about 2 millimeters each. The patches are no more than half an inch each, but also get scabby. My boyfriend is pretty hairy so its hard to see if he has the patches but i have noticed similar scabby, bug bite looking bumps on him. They are very (and sometimes extremely) itchy....Any idea what this is?

4) Eczema Remedies
Apply a mixture of 1 teaspoon camphor and 1 teaspoon sandalwood paste on the rashes. Apply nutmeg paste to the affected areas. Put natural vitamin E on the affected skin, it will relieve you of itching. Zinc taken orally and applied directly on the affected skin is effective. Both shark cartilage and lotion of blueberry leaves reduce inflammation. Use pine tar soap to wash the affected skin. Drink tomato juice daily, it will cure the symptoms in a few days.

You can also make a lotion out of crushed dandelion leaves, spearmint leaves, and a few drops of oil. Apply this lotion to your skin and allow it to remain on for at least 30 minutes before rinsing it off with cold water. This can act as an effective eczema cure. It is better to avoid cosmetic products as far as possible as the chemicals in them may aggravate the condition. An exfoliating cream is a very good option, but it is important to use it regularly in order to get rid of the upper layers of dead skin. It is also important that you use a gently exfoliating cream instead of a commercial product as this will help to prevent unnecessary irritation of the inflamed skin. You can make a cleansing scrub by soaking a handful of nuts in a small quantity of water. Blend these nuts along with half an avocado as avocados contain healthy oils that help to protect and moisturize your skin. Massage your skin gently with this creamy natural exfoliating paste and you can then allow it to remain on your skin for about 10 minutes before you rinse it off. You can add a few drops of fresh lemon juice to this paste to help cleanse your skin of the uppermost layer of dead skin cells.

An important aspect of any eczema treatment plan would be to keep the skin well hydrated and moisturized. While there are plenty of commercial products available for this purpose, some in fact specially marketed for eczema patients, most commercial products do contain some amount of chemicals and fragrances that could be too harsh for your sensitive skin, aggravating the eczema symptoms. The best option would be to use natural oils for an eczema cure. Try and stick to virgin varieties of these oils as the refinement processes that are used destroy and significantly reduce some of the natural properties of the oils. Virgin coconut oil is one such natural oil that is believed to be highly effective as a remedy not just for eczema, but for a variety of skin conditions. The healing effects of virgin coconut oil are attributed to its various properties including a rich content of lauric acid and other fatty acids. The only other rich source of lauric acid is a mother’s milk. Coconut oil can simply be applied over the areas of skin that are affected just like any topical ointment. This will help to keep the skin smooth and soft.

Another natural remedy for eczema that is often used in eczema treatment at home would be the application of mudpacks.

Turmeric powder can also be used in natural eczema treatments and you could make a paste with a tablespoon of the powder mixed with the same proportions of bitter neem leaves.

The application of cold compresses is also believed to help in eczema treatment and should help provide relief to any skin irritation.

Another useful and easily available ingredient for eczema treatment would be papaya. Mashed papaya seeds can be applied to the areas of skin that are affected to reduce the itchiness.

In addition to using natural remedies for eczema and other medications for eczema treatment it is also essential to follow a good skin care regimen. Make sure you avoid using harsh soaps and other commercial products like cosmetics that contain chemicals or any other drying agents - Ovilia Fernandes

My boyfriend was sucking my neck but now there are red marks left. How do I get rid of them fast?

2011-04-17T22:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
My boyfriend was sucking my neck but now there are red marks left. How do I get rid of them fast?... It didn't hurt at all but somehow there are these red-purplish marks how can I get rid of them ??

Answers
1) HICKIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - mitch

2) They are basically just bruises, broken blood cells, so do what you would do if you got punched in the arm. Put ice on it and you can massage it too with your hand, rub it around. But it probably won't help that much. Depending on how hard he was sucking it could last for a couple of weeks. - Johnathan W

3) theres really not a good way. ive been told a cold spoon works or rubbing it. its just blood thats risen to the surface of the skin. just wear cover up on it for a few days and it should go away. - Monica Bybee

4) HAHAHAH their called hickeys :PP
their blood clots that form when someone sucks a part of the skin for to long.
Try putting a spoon in the frezzer then putting it on the marks or get a water bottle cap and twist it around the area - Annissa

5) You have a "Hickie". The Wikipedia article I added suggests the following, "one way to help the hickey heal is to put a block of ice on the affected area, although this will only help if the hickeys have been present for under 10 minutes. They can be covered with foundation, powder or concealer if one wishes to hide them. Another method of concealment is to use an article of clothing such as a scarf or polo neck."

I hope that helps. - 5Deck.com

6) It's a hickey! It's just blood vessels that burst under the skin. You can't get rid of them fast but you can put make-up on it to hide it or wear clothing that covers it. - anonymous

7) its a hickey, and no guarantee of getting rid of it immediately. But, try putting something cold on it, freeze a spoon and put it on it. It will slow the process of it getting darker. So, for now, use makeup to cover it - illy_lover08

8) Toothpaste overnight has always worked for me. - Sarah Jones

Answers

3) Sperm do not have teeth and therefore cannot "bite", nor can they penetrate the skin barrier. The only ability they have to move is the tail, and this requires a wet environment. - DeannetheGreat

4) No. The cellular membranes of the skin cells are tougher and not designed to allow anything to come in.

Little red bumps on vagina?... for the past 6 months ive been having a really itchy vagina i told my doctor abt it about 4-5 weeks ago and he gave one one pill for a yeast infect and it dryed my vagina up and my skin started pilling i had him look at it about a week ago and he said he saw nothing which didnt sound right now tonight ive been itchy as usual but i noticed some bumps like heat bumps around my vagina lips does anyone know what this could be? they hurt to touch but dont hurt if not bothered the bumps themselves r not itchy

Answers
1) how old are you? - brazilianweed123

2) If you have shaved recently they could be from razor burn. - Sarah Jones

3) It may be yeast again as this can cause a kind of sandpapery dry roughness that can be itchy and feel like skin that wants to flake.

You may also have small cysts forming due to a secondary infection from the yeast, the thinning of the skin and changes in your biochemistry.

It seems like symptoms of kidney stones, but i wont know for sure till i go to the doctor. It's not excrutiating now, but it still bothers me.Also what are ways to get rid of them, naturally

Answers
1) im pretty sure you just have to wait it out untill they ''pass'' - Michael Markese

2) I've heard drink a lot of water to help them along, also to prevent them. - Top Source

3) It's unlikely to be kidney stones. My sister had them and she described the pain as worse than childbirth, so if it's not excruciating, it's unlikely. Naturally? Not much, but breaking them up with ultrasound, (lithotripsy, I think it's called), is painless. It breaks the stones up and you pee them out. - Jamie L

Does diabitis have a cure ?

2011-04-15T22:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
Does diabitis have a cure ?... and no i dont have diabitis

Answers
1) As far as I know no - Jose Sandiego cali

2) Type 2 is cured with lifestyle change. Unfortunatly type 1 is incurable. - iNinjaLike

3) no - Lilly Allen

4) No, there is no real cure for it, but there is a way to "supress" it slightly and to live an almost normal life. - Alice~

5) No, there is no cure. There are two exceptions:

1) Some people develop diabetes when they're pregnant. When the pregnancy ends, their diabetes goes away.

2) Some people develop diabetes as adults when they are overweight and when they lose the weight, the diabetes may go away. (This is not common, but it happens.)

Juvenile onset (type I) diabetes has no known cure at all. And most adult onset diabetes cannot be cured, even with weight loss, exercise, and lifestyle changes. (Though these often make the diabetes much less severe.) - JoelKatz

6) No it has to be managed by your diet and maybe medication, depending on how bad it is. If it is juvenile diabetes then you have to get medicine for sure. - Cammi

7) prevention is better than cure - BC

8) The medical establishment says there is no cure and that the best you can do is control the blood sugar with diet and exercise. Many doctors insist that it's progressive no matter what you do, and that eating right only slows the progression of the disease.

However...

1. One doctor has a book out claiming that a strict vegan diet for many months can reverse the course of diabetes. Whether it ever restores the pancreas to full health or not is the question.

2. Getting a pancreas transplant can cure it, in that the person now has a healthy pancreas. However, if the same forces that made the original pancreas go bad are still there (auto-immune reactions, for one), then even this may not be a lasting cure. And besides, once a person has a transplant, they have to take anti-rejection medication for the rest of their lives.

3. Cloning a person's healthy pancreatic tissue would seem to be the best answer, and research is being done along these lines, but they haven't reached a point where this is available as a treatment. - MavistheMaven

Question 4
Terrified of HIV:Heres my story. Please Help (any docs here?)?... I am a straight guy..19 years old, and during new years (3 months ago)at NYC me and my buddies partied and got drunk at a pricy hotel to celebrate the new year. We were searching for girls, and I happen to meet this Californian girl in the elevator.I quickly made moves on her..she told me she was from Iran (had an accent), and staying at the hotel with her boyfriend for the weekend..she was 25 years old, and i told her i was 23!After 5 minutes of talking to her, she made out with me in the elevator and took me to her room (knowing she had a boyfriend, and told me that he won't care). NOW TO THE GOOD PART: She whispered something into her boyfriends ear and then quickly walked over to me and stripped naked.Her boyfriend didn't have much of an expression and just was surfing the internet on his laptop not really watching us. I had an old condom in my wallet which i thankfully had..but the package looked a bit wrinkled. I can't even remember what kind of condom it was other then being a trojan, I know it was latex and I'm sure it was supposed to be lubricated. I opened the package, and as i put the condom on..it seemed to be really really dry, and didnt feel lubricated at all! Either way, I got to business for 15 minutes (Just Vaginal Sex)and towards the end "she kept on whispering that her boyfriend is getting mad and to cum inside her." I finally gained conscience and pulled out immediately without even ejaculating. I quickly pulled the condom off and flushed it, and rapidly walked out of the room and said bye. I then..went to my room and masturbated for like 20 minutes, and got a blister on my penis afterwards from masturbating to hard (I'm circumsized). SO HERES MY WORRY:I'm so afraid the condom could have ripped but i doubt it did, I'm worrying that the condom couldve been defective and the HiV went through,I'm also worrying that I couldve caught hiv from making out with her. It's been 3 months and I haven't had any symptoms of HIV or anything like that..but I'm still worrying because some people don't get symptoms.I have so much to look forward to in life , and this stress is bothering me.

Please let me know what you think the odds are, or if you think I may be fine. I'm terrified of getting tested but I plan on doing that this week (So dont tell me to get tested to find out) thanks. I hope that a doctor may be able to answer this himself.

Answers
1) Hello there Kenny

If you're not feeling as well as you think you should, it's quite possible that your body is suffering from a buildup of toxins. Body detoxification, or detox, is an important consideration for anyone who suspects they are suffering from too many toxins in their system. In fact, many common ailments could be cleared up with a simple detox program alone.

Toxins build up over the years and it's nearly impossible to avoid them completely. Usually, they accumulate in your colon, making colon cleanses a popular form of initial detoxification.

Bloating is one of the most common concerns you can suffer from if you've got a toxic buildup in your system. Truly an uncomfortable condition, bloating is characterized by a swollen abdomen. Often you'll feel heavier than normal and you may even have some stomach pain. Feeling bloated is one of the main reasons for having a "fat day" as many women like to call it.

Lack of energy is another common symptom of excess toxins. Lowered energy levels are generally the result of your body having more weight to carry around (feeling fat from the bloating) as well as the effect toxins have on your system in general. You see, when there are an excessive amount of toxins present in your body, everything is just a bit off kilter. Fatigue may be a clue that a body detoxification is in order.

Your skin can also be impacted by toxins. Many times you'll notice rashes or acne when you never had such problems in the past. In addition, your complexion is likely to be a bit dull and lackluster. Going through a detox often results in a clearing of the skin and a radiant glow that wasn't there previously.

There are a number of more serious health conditions that may be prevented through detoxification as well. Pancreatitis, for example, is a condition where bile ducts become blocked with toxins and other materials. Pancreatic juices are unable to flow properly when this happens. Instead, those juices will move into the pancreas and progressively work to destroy it. Removing toxins may help prevent this condition from happening in the first place or at least relieve some of the symptoms.

Kidney failure is another serious condition that results from excessive toxins entering the kidneys. This can lead the kidneys to stop working which could be deadly. Because detoxification removes much of the harmful impurities that lead to this and other serious conditions, many use it as a preventative measure. Of course, with any medical condition you should always discuss treatment options with your doctor.

2) in order to get HIV, it has to be transmitted through blood. So take making out, out of question. Second how do you know she has HIV???

And unless the condom ripped, then you should worry. But to be on the safeside go to the doc and get a test...its your safest bet... - Bryan Perez

3) OK, so without all the endless detail, your story is that you had sex with someone you didn't know with a condom that was, as far as anyone can tell, intact. Your chances of getting HIV from this are exceedingly remote. If you're really worried, it's been three months, so go and get tested. - ρερρεяЬεαѕτ

How can i get rid of my dry nose?... my nose is super dry inside. it hurts and its always plugged. What can I do to get rid of it? other than getting a humidifier

Answers
1) when i was in Iraq, my nose got really dry from the hot dry weather and sand storms. so i would get a q tip and wet it in water and wet my nostrils several times a day. or i would get a q tip and get a light coat of Vaseline and to the same. - Lo

2) Start drinking more liquids, especially water or fresh juice. You need to help rehydrate the entire body, this is the most common cause of dry nose problems. Also be sure to avoid stimulants such as coffee, caffeine or alcohol.

If you constantly wake up with a dry nose, try cracking your window open a bit. This allows air to circulate throughout the room properly.

Use room mists to help with dry air. Room mists can also help to add moisture to the air, as well as help to purify the air. Avoid using chemically enhanced ones, but instead purchase organic ones to avoid any irritants. - Awesome Vworker

Do I have tinnitus.........?

Question 1
Do I have tinnitus.........?... *In case you don't know, tinnitus is like ringing in your ears.

So when there's a lot of noise or people are talking loud in my ears that means I have to talk loud to get them to hear me. Then I get this ringing in my ears. It hurts a lot too, and is really irritating. I'm not sure if I should tell my parents or a doctor or someone because I'm only 13? If it's really loud it feels like there is a fire alarm going off in my ear drum! ahh!

Am I diabetic? Do I have a chance?... I ate a pretty junky meal (French fries, hotdog, etc.) and drank a full bottle of juice, an hour or two later I checked my blood sugar, and to my surprise it was 211. I'm 15 years old, what should I do? Last time I checked it (Couple months ago) it was 80.

Am I fully diabetic or what should I do?

Answers
1) Go see your local GP or doctor. You have done the right thing about checking your blood sugars. However be very careful about self diagnosis. Further even if you are diabetic it is something you can manage and learn to live with, providing you get the right advice/support and you are willing to make changes.. - waggy

2) You should go to your doctor, he will most likely drae a A1C and it will show your average sugar for the past several weeks. Also try testing your sugar first thing in the morning before you eat, this will give you a better idea of how your body is managing your blood sugar, if it is able to lower it to a normal level overnight without having to deal with your eating habits. - Alex E

3) Diabetes is much more than a one-time blood sugar. Whose glucometer are you using? Did the doctor prescribe it to you, or are you using up someone else's supplies? Did you have any strange symptoms along with it? Frequent urination, extreme thirst, dizziness, stomach cramps, or anything else that isn't normal for u? 211 is a bit high, but not dangerous unless it is sustained over a period of time. Definitely ask your parents, and tell them you want to see a doctor. - John M

2) My daughter had more than average pimples, she even tried dermatologists, but here is how she got the best results.
She started cleaning her face daily with coconut oil. Olive oil works too, but she likes coconut oil better.
This may seem against common sense, putting oil on oily skin; but in fact her skin got dryer as she cleaned it with these natural oils. - The First Dragon

3) You can use an egg white mask, which is used by cracking an egg and removing the yolk (yellow) with a spoon, and adding a some squeezes of lemon juice, a pinch of honey, and a very tiny pinch of salt. You sir it good until you see several small bubbles appearing. Wash you're face first, then cover you're face with it. You have to at least leave it on for 15 minutes, or until it's completely dry. Then you can wash it off. I like to keep it on while I sleep though. - Mac Dakis

What may happen when my heartbeat is really fast?... My heartbeat has been 120-150 bpm since yesterday and i feel lightheaded every time. Can somebody tell me what is/is going to happen to me?

Answers
1) It could be anxiety... - Jayla

2) I don't know.
What is your respiration rate? Is it fast too? It should be around 20 per minute when you are at rest.
If your respiration is too fast, this may be causing the heart to speed up, and you need to breathe more slowly. Practice some good relaxation techniques. or look up hyperventilation on the web.
It is also possible that you are experiencing some kind of allergic reaction. Sometimes a food allergy will cause tachycardia, as a rapid heart beat is called.
I don't suppose you are taking any stimulant drugs? I assume not, or you would know it.
Maybe you should see a doctor if these suggestions don't solve the problem. That is a very fast heartbeat to last for so long. - The First Dragon

3) That heartbeat is definitely too high when you sustain it for long periods of time if you are not exerting yourself. It could be anxiety like the first poster said, but there are many more serious things to rule out first. You should definitely see a doctor the very first chance you get. What happens is that your heart beats so fast, that it doesn't have time to completely refill with blood before beating again, thus lowering your blood pressure. Your low blood pressure makes you dizzy. You need an EKG, blood work and a chest x-ray. It is not normal, and you need it checked out by a doctor. - John M

STD symptoms possible throat infection?... Hi,
So i have never had sex before. I have been giving my boyfriend of two months head lately, and have never been with anyone els. He has had a few partners. It is April and he hasnt been tested since July. He said he has had unprotected sex since then, but when i asked if he has anything he knows about, he said no. He hasnt had any symptoms of anything. Maybe im being paraniod, but a night after i got back from his house, i woke up with a sore throat, some mucus in my chest, nose, and my ears kinda hurt. also, Ive never looked closely at my tongue before, but near the very back i have about 7 or 8 round pink bumps IN A V SHAPE. They dont hurt, my throat is just sore. am i just sick and is it just a coincidence this has cuaght me now, or should i be worried about this being a possible STD?

Thanks so much guys!
p.s. I know there are stds that dont show symptoms, but if he had one of the stds that cuases warts or something, would he have noticed SOMETHING?? Im going to a clinic today, also.

Answers
1) "So i have never had sex before."

LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - John Smith

2) about it you can get information from here http://heansmd65.notlong.com/AAl4klq - Cris Lizana

3) You have likely had many sore throats in your life, long before you ever had sex. Go easy on yourself. There are hundreds of pathogens that can cause what you described and most if not all can be airborne pathogens meaning you can catch them from breathing.

You are having the symptoms now because your immune system is weak. Strengthen your immune system and it will take care of your infection. Get more than 8 hours sleep, drink more pure water and avoid anything that isn't food, like energy drinks and coffee. Also, because fungus is a common cause of bumps and throat issues avoid carbs and sugars until it all goes away.

The doctor will prescribe a antibiotic which you only need if you cannot make the changes I suggested. You will surprised at how effective you immune system can be compared to an antibiotic. Antibiotics can cause side effects worst than the original symptoms.

Fear and stress is your greatest enemy. You have no immunity against it and when you fear and stress your energy from your food and rest go to dealing with stress and fear instead of immunity. - ?

4) it is very possible for you to have gotten an std women are more prone to stds because they have an open reproduction System compared to men that have closed reproduction and there are some stds that he could have gotten and might not know because some will not show any symptoms for many years to come you also said he had several partners in the past who knows how many partner that person had or how many there partners had so it would be best to get your self tested to be on the safe side there is two types of stds bacterial and viral if YOU DO have one hope its bacterial because those can be cured but viral cannot unfortunately. just a few more facts you can catch an std from any form of sex blow job anal sex etc any. i wish you luck hopefully you dont have one - Kenny

Answers
1) Don't scratch, you should be fine. - Evie k

2) A scar is a mark left by a healed wound. If you have a scar, chances are if it hasn't disappeared after a few months, it's there to stay. - Øyvind

3) Sometimes, the best thing you can do for scars is to lighten them so that they somewhat blend with your skin. Some natural bleaching agents can be used to try and successfully do this.

Applying a mixture of lime juice and freshly squeezed raw potato juice will help to lighten the darkest of scars and patches. Raw potato juice, particularly, has the property to lighten darn skin. You can also try to use aloe vera gel in order to lighten your scar. If your scar is fresh, this will sometimes help in removing it completely. For old scars, this may not be a viable option, however. You can also try to use a mixture of equal parts of rose water, sandalwood powder and yogurt to lighten your scar and make your skin appear better and healthier. This remedy can also be used several times a day.If you have sandalwood, you can use that paste to get rid of your scars
A mixture of sandalwood paste and black gram paste also works handy for this problem
Rubbing your skin with ice cubes helps to tighten the skin and give you a younger look
Sandalwood paste mixed with rose water and kept overnight on your scars provides you the needed results.
You can use cucumber and lemon juice on your scars. These can be very fruitful depending how dark your scars are. - Ovilia Fernandes

3) Apply aloe vera or vinegar on the affected skin; it will stop inflammation and pain. Avoid products made from benzocaine, lidocaine and petroleum jelly. Rub mustard oil on the affected skin and allow to it dry, this will take out the heat from the skin. Cut fresh cucumber slices and rub them on the affected area. Before taking bath, add some baking powder to the bath water, this will help to soothe the burnt skin. Apply lavender oil or peppermint oil on the burnt skin. Apply apple cider vinegar to the burnt skin using cotton ball. Take herbal bath; put few drops of chamomile and lavender essential oils in bath water. Take epsom salt or ice compress. Grate some potatoes and apply them on the burnt skin. Starch from the potatoes will soothe the burn.

Other home remedies to treat sunburns naturally are quite simple.

• Take 3 tablespoons of ground meals and mix it with half cup of yoghurt. Rub this mixture on over your neck and face. Wash it off after sometime.

• Two teaspoons oatmeal and a drop of honey must be added to half cup ripe papaya. This mask must be applied and kept for 20 minutes, after which it can be washed off.

• Mix honey and lime in 2;1 proportion and apply on affected area. It can be washed off in 20 minutes.

• A pinch of turmeric must be added to yoghurt and must be applied on the face, neck and arms for half hour on a regular basis.

• Cucumber and lime juice serve to cool and lighten sunburn. Therefore, they must be mixed in equal ratio and applied often.

• For sunburn relief, a paste of turmeric, barley and yoghurt must be applied on the sunburned area.

• Consuming raw mango juice that is mixed with sugar and salt serves as a cool, refreshing drink. It will help hydrate the system. - Ovilia Fernandes

Bright, red blood in stool, 15, terrified?

2011-04-11T22:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
Bright, red blood in stool, 15, terrified?... This is extremely embarrassing to ask, but anyway...

About a year ago I noticed a little blood on the toilet paper after I took quite a large poop, nothing major, it was just a little spot so I thought nothing of it.
I've always had difficulty passing a stool, and have usually had to strain really hard to get one out, causing quite a lot of pain. After I've done this, however, there is no pain whatsoever.
Over the past two weeks or so, I've had extra trouble passing a stool, due to straining so hard. After I've done, I noticed blood dripping in the toilet and bright, red blood on the toilet paper.
About an hour ago I took a very hard poop, and there was quite a lot of blood. I tried to minimize my straining as low as possible, and hardly didn't at all, but there was still blood.
I've looked into this I figure I either have an anal fissure, or hemorrhoids. I've felt around for a lump and there doesn't appear to be one on on my exterior. There's so pain or blood after I've passed a stool. Does this sound more like an anal fissure or an internal hemorrhoid?
I'm extremely terrified right now. Depending on which I've got, is it dangerous, and will it go away on its own? What changes in my diet do I need to take? I've tried drinking quite a lot of water and eating sources of fiber over the past couple of days to get my stools normal, but this hasn't worked so far. I don't want to tell my parents. I'm really hoping this will go away on its own, I'm just scared.
Thank you.
If worst comes to worst, and I have to tell my parents, I'll tell my mum. How can I tell her about this? What should I say?

Answers
1) Could be a fissure or a hemorrhoid, but generally that blood is dark red. If it is bright red, and there is a lot of it, it could be an emergency. You should wake your parents right away and let them know. Don't hesitate. - John M

2) Anal fissues are usually very painful. Since you do not have severe pain, it is likely hemmorhoids. Bright blood is a symptom of hemorrhoids.

You may want to consider a fiber supplement. Also, don't be scared to tell your parents and talk to your doctor. - Lesley Brown

3) about it you can get information from here http://heansmd50.notlong.com/AAHN9nb - Sol Strawther

4) You don't have anything serious. Constipation causes large, hard stools and stools of this nature cause painful bloody poops. The mildest thing to do is to take a magnesium mineral supplement with your meals and maybe at bedtime, and keep up the fiber and extra fluids. Magnesium citrate, glycinate or malate supplements draw fluid into the intestines. Its healthiest to take magnesium in a tablet combined with calcium at one part magnesium to two parts calcium. - formerly_bob

5) sane thing happened to ;me....you have inside piles...bright red....I now drink chinese tea with Senna. just one half cup will do maybe twice a week. stops the straining..and really works. - F Briggs

Is it possible that I have breast cancer?? PLEASE PLEASE HELP!!?... I'm scared to mention this to my mom but I am just 14 and i have 2-3 lumps on each breast. Is there any way I can get rid of them?

Answers
1) You should use nolvadex, it is the best about it you can get information from here http://heansmd46.notlong.com/AA3iYdn - Sol Strawther

2) There is a very small chance you have breast cancer unless you have a family history of it, but if you are worried, you have to tell your mom so she can take you to a doctor! It is probably nothing, but sometimes catching cancer early on is what saves lives! There is really no other option unfortunately, but don't worry, the doctor's won't be as bad as you think. - D Smith

3) The risk of a 14 year old getting breast cancer in one breast is so low that it is statistically zero.

If possible, the risk of having it in both breasts is even lower.

Breast cancer occurs IN the breast tissue not On your breasts.

What you are describing is NOT breast cancer but could be anything from pimples to bug bites.

Talk to your mother or school nurse and get whatever the problem is atended to. - Tarkarri

4) The lumps you are feeling are normal breast development. Many people have normally lumpy breasts Breast cancer is very very rare in teens and would not show up in both breasts. Next time you o to the doctor ask to be shown how to do a breast exam so you can learn what is normal.

Ovarian cysts? Ovarian cancer?... 5 years ago I was told I had HPV and some of the cells were cancerous. since then i get multiple utis and am now having pain in the right side of my pelvis. Its like a sharp stabbing pain. Could this be more cysts? Should i be checked for ovarian cancer? Just looking for opinions.

Answers
1) HVP has been linked to cervical cancer.

UTI's can lead to a kidney infection.

Ovarian cysts are fairly common.

Until you see a Dr and get it checked out you will have no idea if you are dealing with any of these conditions or something else entirely. - Tarkarri

2) See a doctor and get tested for ovarian cancer, just to be sure. Ovarian cancer usually doesn't have any symptoms when its treatable. The sharp stabbing pain sounds a lot like cysts. Hpv can spread and cause ovarian cancer But, I'm not a doctor or anything. What do I know? - Ali

3) Yes, you should be getting bi annual check ups since you are a high risk case. There may be a chance you have polycystic ovary syndrome. - Queen of Night

How to control excessive sweating?

Question 1
How to control excessive sweating?... Sometimes I sweat and sometimes I don't, it usually happens when I am dealing with a form of stress, and when I am around other people even when I am not nervous! I will sweat through my t-shirts and it is really embarrassing, any certain products that you know of that can help, and personal results?? :) Thanks.

Answers
1) It's natural - Hame Zarte

2) that's what antiperspirant is for. - Dr. TJ

3) If your sweating through your shirt your sweating to much. It's just that your sweat glands overreact to small things.

Go to the doctor, I looked online and that's all I could find - ?

4) Buy a deodorant specifically with antipersperant properties. Secret Clinical Strength for Athletes, Secret Clinical Strength, and the Dove Clinical Strength with the Pink Packaging ( can't remember what the specific name of it is =/ ) are my favorites, and they have worked very well for me. I sweat a lot and very easily. Hope this helps! - shelby

Answers
1) I would go to the doctor and get it checked out. You never know, it could be something serious. Hopefully it isn't. Or it could just be a rash that antibiotic ointment can help it go away. :D - Alison Barnes

2) Are you in the sun often? This can cause the spots. Ringworm is round and very pale or near white in the ring. There could be so many causes that it would be hard to identify . Three in a row may indicate poison ivy but it would itch. I hate to even think about these pests, but bed bugs are so common know and resemble mosquito bites. They are hard to eradicate and require professionals for up to several months. There are different types of eczema and the best person to check you out is a dermatologist or maybe your family doctor. You could also have allergies that you never had before. I don't want to try to guess, so it is best to see a professional. Do they itch? Good luck and I hope it is nothing serious. - luv2seashore1

What is the fastest way to get rid of eczema scars on legs?

2011-04-03T10:05:00.001-07:00

Question 1
What is the fastest way to get rid of eczema scars on legs?... So I've been having eczema on my legs for a little over a year now, just on the front part below my knees all the way down. I usually scratch it a lot when I wake up, that is when it is the itchiest. I have been to the doctor for eczema cream and that did help a bit, but it is still there. Now it is slowly going away but the scars are very noticeable. They are dark and my skin is pretty fair. How can I get rid of them so I can have nice legs for the summer?

Answers
1) Shea butter. :) (Y) - hassim

2) A nice cocoa/shea butter will help (and perhaps those creams that pregnant women use), but scars are there because the skin has regenerated, and for some reason it's always quite messy-looking and therefore it won't go away, but will fade over the years.

Perhaps go online and find some scar cover-up so that you can show your legs worry free :) - Kid A

3) I'm no expert at this but, a few months ago I had a terrible eczema scar on my chest and I used a normal acne scar remover on my eczema scars and it worked fine for me.
Unfortunately I cant share my treatment with you but i just did a quick google search and I found a site that has the same product that I used.

Question 2
Inner thighs seem to be itchy?... I've been having this problem for about a year now, that off and on through out the day my inner thighs might be slightly itchy. It is usually worse when I wake up in the morning and I feel the need to itch. As far as I can tell, I don't have any skin rashes, legions or bites. I did gain at least 20 pounds the year prior so when I went to the doctor and asked about it, they told me it's probably because my thighs are rubbing together since it's rather smooth with no hair.

Now thats all fine and good, but can that really make you feel the need to itch in the morning when you wake up, and off and on through out the day? Like I said I don't believe I have any skin problems that I can see or STDs or anything, so I just didn't know if this has happened to anyone else, and what they do about it. I have been putting Aveeno lotion on my thighs every day and it seems to help a bit. I just didn't know if when I start exercising again and I lose some weight, if that really will help it or not. Thanks!

Answers
1) If they are pushed together they could be getting sweaty and chaffing. Try putting talcum powder on before you go to bed - Holly Smith

2) You got the clap! - £eetahd

3) I think your doctor is right: sounds like you're having a chafing issue. You wouldn't notice your legs rubbing together in your sleep, but they actually will chafe while you're asleep, since there isn't much space for your legs to move when you're in bed.

Losing weight most definitely will help. I used to have this problem when I was 13, and ever since I've been losing weight in leaps and bounds, I haven't had this problem at all. For now, try putting baby powder in the places where your legs touch- the mica in the baby powder will act as a lubricant. - cris9o'sofinee

Don't worry about the chest pains, that's just heartburn (providing of course it isn't accompanied by a pain in your neck/arm).

Answers
1) If you have feeling of pain then take pain reliever, healing just took long period of time, its just normal. - Jorge Jester

2) Use a peroxal mouth rinse without alcohol . It will help greatly . I did the same thing and that was the only thing that healed it. For pain you can use a product for canker sores called kanka ittastes bad and hurts when you put it on but after the pain is gone. It works great for scratches on tounges . Hope it helps ! - Jonathan Netzel

3) Stop washing and just leave it alone. If it's being washed too much the tissue won't be given a chance to repair itself. Antibiotics are definitely not necessary at this point unless it becomes infected. In that case, see a doctor. - Megan

4) antibiotics are for treatment of a bacterial infection. they don't help cuts heal. take a couple asprin. your mouth and eye's are actually the fastest healing parts of your body because they are moist and warm. there are key vitamins that will help your body recover from cuts, like vitamin C, vitamin A, vitamin D, and also herbs and homeopathic remedies like Arnica Montana, which i absolutely swear by.

how do i know if i have dandrudd or lice, when i itch they come off but i have alot of the...?

2011-03-14T10:06:00.001-07:00

Question 1
how do i know if i have dandrudd or lice, when i itch they come off but i have alot of the...?... ...white flaky stuff
my head isnt normally itchy,
but when i do itch lots off white stuff comes off
also if i use like my nail or somthing to itch all the whote stuff gets like packed under my nail, does that mean its just dandruff???
and if it is dandruff what do you recomend for me

Answers
1) if you have lice the only way to get rid of them is special shampoo and head being shaved. - Rick

2) If your dandruff is moving, it's lice. - alanski

3) i dont think it is lice but if it is you can check look close to the roots of your hair would be little white things that dont just brush off you have to pull them down the hiar with your nails if you find these they are lice eggs then you need to treat with a lice kit if you do not find these and it is dandruff i would try some dandruff shampoo. hope this helps(: here are some picks of lice eggs so you can tell if this is or not-

regular- http://getridfast.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/11/headliceeggs.jpg (it is not this bad on some people) - hotpink101

4) you dont have lice. lice are bugs and if you dont see any bugs crawling on your scalp its not going to be lice. what you are experiencing could be a combination of dandruff and possibly not rinsing your hair well enough after shampooing therefor leaving soap residue on your scalp.. hopefully you are using shampoo and not some other kind of soap such as bar soap. switch to a dandruff shampoo and be sure to rinse your hair very well and scrub at the scalp while doing so. - Larry

5) If you use a lot of hairspray or gel and skip washing your hair that could do it too... it seems more like that then just plain dandruff ... look into your roots and if you see anything moving or a build up of eggs then you def got lice ... you prob need to wash your air more if you use stuff in it - Winter

6) It's definitely dandruff, because with lice there isn't any white stuff, just a bunch of bugs living on your head, and yes, they too itch like hell.. For the dandruff use Selsium Blue. Good luck! - amccoy1962

Question 2
I scratched myself on a bit of wood. Should I get a tetanus shot?... I scratched myself on a piece of wood this morning, disassembling a bunk bed. The scratch is tiny, maybe a few millimetres wide. No blood, just the tiny scratch. I can't find the life of me remember when I last had a tetanus immunisation, although I'm sure it was less than ten years ago. (Don't the NHS usually send a letter a few months prior to the vaccine ending?)

Should I get a tetanus shot?

Answers
1) No... you didn't even break the skin enough to even bleed. Plus, it was just wood not metal.

You're fine. - nite_angelica

2) No.
1. Usually you only get a tetanus shot if you get punctured by metal.
2. If you had a tetanus shot in the last 10 years, you don't need another one.
3. Do you freak out every time you get a scratch?! - Captain Awesome

3) You should be fine. If you keep the cut clean, you shouldn't have any issues. The common misconception is that it's only transmitted via rusty metal, but it can occur most often in puncture wounds (example being rusty nail in foot) that have been exposed to the tetanus bacteria. Long story short, if it's a shallow cut and can be exposed to oxygen, it's really unlikely you'd have those complications that'd require a tetanus shot. The tetanus bacteria only can thrive in a deep wound that cannot breathe/be exposed to oxygen (i.e. puncture wound). - soccerchick19832002

4) Usually when a foreing object punctures the skin you should get a tetanus shot, Theres a test that determines if your due for immuniztions! but in tis case i dont think is necessary to get an immunization as the object dint puncture the skin, i would deffinatley clean it annd keep updated with the scratch for the next 5 days if it gets swollen,reddish,bumpiesh then it needs medical attention asap (stat) as we say in the medical field, but you should be fine as your description seems just like another in home minor scratch!1 - Gera*87*

5) tetanus comes from metal, genius. - ilove:neil-patrick-harris

6) Stop worrying so much, your fine - John Mclaughlin

Is it offensive to ask my boyfriend to get tested for HIV?... My boyfriend used to date a girl who he later found out cheated on him with a LOT of people. I'm afraid he might have an STD now because of that. (Although I'll admit I'm always paranoid of STDs, no matter what).

Anyway, I have an IUD which means I don't need to use condoms. So I was thinking of asking my bf to get tested to HIV, and maybe every other STD, and then we can have sex without a condom. I was talking to my friend about this, and she said that if I asked him to do that, it would be rude. That's ridiculous right??

Answers
1) If your concerned about it then it is the safest thing to do. It's for his own best interests too because if he does have an STD then im sure he will want it to get sorted - Ben Williams

2) of course not, this is your body and your heath. you are the one you suffer if you catch the disease.

Her gf only stays on her clit during sex ; she doesn't go any further. Should the gf be worried about catching hpv if she isn't coming in contact with the infected area?

Answers
1) Yes. They need to use a protection device called a dental dam for this. The virus may be showing in only a few small warts, but it is present over the entire area. Dental dams are effective for this. - SethSpeaks

2) She is definitely in danger of contracting HPV. They need to take precautions, even though dams and so on are not 100% effective. - pelican

EASY 10PTS QUESTION ON CANCER! PROMISEEE?

2011-03-01T21:05:00.001-08:00

Question 1
EASY 10PTS QUESTION ON CANCER! PROMISEEE?... iam doing a research paper on cancer
so is chemotherapy and radiation therapy an alternative treatment for cancer?
if nott...can you name somee?!

it is a yes or a no ansewerr!!!!!!!
is chemotherapy and radiation therpaya
A ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT FOR CANCER
AND HOW EFFECTIVE ARE THEY?!

Answers
1) its not but there are plenty of diets and herbal remedies that claim to help those who suffer from cancer. you should look into those - Zach J

2) Yes, both chemotherapy and radiation are Alternative treatments for cancer. - Erika Ganauser

3) Cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the body. Cancerous cells are also called malignant cells.
Causes, incidence, and risk factors
Cells are the building blocks of living things.
Cancer grows out of normal cells in the body. Normal cells multiply when the body needs them, and die when the body doesn't need them. Cancer appears to occur when the growth of cells in the body is out of control and cells divide too quickly. It can also occur when cells forget how to die.
There are many different kinds of cancers. Cancer can develop in almost any organ or tissue, such as the lung, colon, breast, skin, bones, or nerve tissue.
There are many causes of cancers, including:
Benzene and other chemicals
Drinking excess alcohol
Environmental toxins, such as certain poisonous mushrooms and a type of poison that can grow on peanut plants (aflatoxins)
Excessive sunlight exposure
Genetic problems
Obesity
Radiation
Viruses
However, the cause of many cancers remains unknown.
The most common cause of cancer-related death is lung cancer.
The three most common cancers in men in the United States are:
Prostate cancer
Lung cancer
Colon cancer
In women in the United States, the three most common cancers are:
Breast cancer
Colon cancer
Lung cancer
Some cancers are more common in certain parts of the world. For example, in Japan, there are many cases of stomach cancer, but in the United States, this type of cancer is pretty rare. Differences in diet may play a role.
Some other types of cancers include:
Brain cancer
Cervical cancer
Hodgkin's lymphoma
Kidney cancer
Leukemia
Liver cancer
Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma
Ovarian cancer
Skin cancer
Testicular cancer
Thyroid cancer
Uterine cancer
Symptoms
Symptoms of cancer depend on the type and location of the cancer. For example, lung cancer can cause coughing, shortness of breath, or chest pain. Colon cancer often causes diarrhea, constipation, and blood in the stool.
Some cancers may not have any symptoms at all. In certain cancers, such as pancreatic cancer, symptoms often do not start until the disease has reached an advanced stage.
The following symptoms can occur with most cancers:
Chills
Fatigue
Fever
Loss of appetite
Malaise
Night sweats
Weight loss
Signs and tests
Like symptoms, the signs of cancer vary based on the type and location of the tumor. Common tests include the following:
Biopsy of the tumor
Blood tests (which look for chemicals such as tumor markers)
Bone marrow biopsy (for lymphoma or leukemia)
Chest x-ray
Complete blood count (CBC)
CT scan
MRI scan
Most cancers are diagnosed by biopsy. Depending on the location of the tumor, the biopsy may be a simple procedure or a serious operation. Most patients with cancer have CT scans to determine the exact location and size of the tumor or tumors.
a cancer diagnosis is difficult to cope with. It is important, however, that you discuss the type, size, and location of the cancer with your doctor when you are diagnosed. You also will want to ask about treatment options, along with their benefits and risks.
It's a good idea to have someone with you at the doctor's office to help you get through the diagnosis. If you have trouble asking questions after hearing about your diagnosis, the person you bring with you can ask them for you.
Treatment
Treatment varies based on the type of cancer and its stage. The stage of a cancer refers to how much it has grown and whether the tumor has spread from its original location.
If the cancer is confined to one location and has not spread, the most common treatment approach is surgery to cure the cancer. This is often the case with skin cancers, as well as cancers of the lung, breast, and colon.
If the tumor has spread to local lymph nodes only, sometimes these can be removed.
If surgery cannot remove all of the cancer, the options for treatment include radiation, chemotherapy, or both. Some cancers require a combination of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy.
Lymphoma, or cancer of the lymph glands, is rarely treated with surgery. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy are most often used to treat lymphoma.
Although treatment for cancer can be difficult, there are many ways to keep up your strength.
If you have radiation treatment, know that:
Radiation treatment is painless.
Treatment is usually scheduled every weekday.
You should allow 30 minutes for each treatment session, although the treatment itself usually takes only a few minutes.
You should get plenty of rest and eat a well-balanced diet during the course of your radiation therapy.
Skin in the treated area may become sensitive and easily irritated.
Side effects of radiation treatment are usually temporary. They vary depending on the area of the body that is being treated
