i closed the car door on my thumb a few days ago. i watched it bruise and swell instanteously. it throbbed for days. i have dead blood under my nail, and i wonder if the blood should be let out so that it may heal faster? i don't know, do you? btw, a month and half ago i bruised my toe playing soccer. i let the blood out and it was excruciating, but the throbbing came down fast because the blood was let out.

The brand I'm using is Acuvue Oasys and I've had this problem for at least a year. After about 6 hours they start to make my eyes red (bloodshot to the iris) and eventually I have to take them out because they're so irritating. It's worse in the winter.

I'm now trying to wear them with allergy eye drops prescribed by my (awful) eye doctor, but now the lenses have difficulty even sticking to my eyes. Am I doomed to wear glasses from now on? Thanks!

My dad, in his late 50's and has asperger's syndrome like me and diabetes, is taking tons and tons of medications. However, I've been noticing him in the past looking at porn magazines as well as porn websites. Plus, when I try talking about it with him, he just talks about it for a little, but then stops. So, I'm researching his medication he's taking because there may be some type of side effect in one of them that could be causing him to look at these porn websites/magazines. Anyways, he's on Lorazepam, Lithium Carbonate, Lisinopril, Nexium, Effexor XR, Clonazepam, Lamictal, Precose, Seroquel, Prozac, Abilify, Metformin HCL, Risperdal, Actos, Glipizide ER, and Gemfibrozil. If anybody finds any type of sexual side effects on these medications, please let me know.

I have just gotten Chicken Pox. I have never had them before. I don't know of anyone that has them that would have been infected with them but, I have been around someone who has had shingles. Can a person get Chicken Pox from Shingles? Does Shingles carry a virus for Chicken Pox? I do work at Wal-Mart so I could have been around a customer who had them. I just wanted to know if I person could get them from shingles?

I'm 16, and I have a lot of cavities. (Something I really regret, T_T) However, some of my larger teeth at the back of my mouth (not wisdom teeth) are still my baby teeth. My dentist tells me that they aren't going to fall out and new ones aren't going to grow out and that I will have the teeth I have now for the rest of my life. She says it is because I'm already 16. Is this true?

Sometimes, I get this bad itching on the palms of my hands and on the bottom of my feet. I scratch the palms with my teeth, that's how bad it gets. And when the bottom of my feet itch. I have to take my shoes and socks off to scratch them. What would be the reason for this? This started to happen about 6 months ago.

Can you please let me know the reason/s for this? Thank you...
