Two dyas ago i carved a small heart into my palm and used red ink to color it. It was fine & looks good. Yesterday i used a needle to slice into my hip an asterik and put red ink into the wound. Today it was extremely sore and looked a little infected. Tonight i sliced a star on my foot and filled it with black ink. I was feelig fine and wasnt worried until today about noon. I stated getting hot and itchy. Now after just taking a shower i realize i have slighty red colors in my skin on my chest mostly and my neck and shoulders. Could that be ink poisoning? What should I do!? Dont ask me why i carved a star on my foot after i started feeling weird today. I cant answer that i; i wasnt thinking.

Please answer this seriously. I am not looking to be called an idiot or immature. I just need to know if i should show my dad, or school nurse and what not.

Please provide liinks if possible!!! :) thanks

my signs and symptoms were: frequency/urgency with urination
doc diagnosis: urinary tract infectioned

1. she prescribed bactrim (an antibiotic)
2. she ordered a urine analisis and sensitivity

(she ordered the antibiotic before she saw the results of the urine test).

5 days later (i was on the bactrim for 5 days), lab called me and said "no infection in the urine".

sooooo....tooc antibiotic for nothing.

is that ok?
why do doctors do that? i mean, why do they prescribe stuff left and right before they know if the patient has an infection or not???

When I was 7 I got my ears pierced, and everything was alright. Then I changed to piercing studs to 24kt. (sp?) gold studs. I would always keep them in, while i slept, swam, took showers. In a month I got an allergic reaction, and the doctor said that it was because i have very sensitive skin. I was thinking that I was only allergic because I kept them in so long. Is it a good or bad idea to get my ears repierced?

my hubby and I are TTC and we had a still born son at 5 months gestation.
after he was born, my periods shortened and now they only last 2 days!!!

can that (the shortness of my periods) impede us or decrease our chances of conceiving again?

we want a live baby this time btw.

Every time I shave down there I am in itchy, red, bump hell. I try going with the grain instead of against it but then I dont get a very close shave. I can only shave once a month because I will bleed and get a lot of bumps. How can I shave more often with out the ingrown hairs and irritation?

I take it for epilepsy and I know it is also used for depression and bipolar disorder, but I feel really depressed a lot. Why is this? Wouldn't it take care of my epilepsy AND my depression? Or is the medicine causing my depression? I dont know it is confusing me.

I'm really worried about my mom (awww yea I know lol anyways…) cuz she is having bad pain in her hands and feet like they are burning. She said she felt better after she massaged one foot but doesn't have the strength to massage the other. But she can still walk and grab things normally. She has a small fever too. She started to hurt about two days ago while shopping with her friends. Thanks for your help

I had sprained my ankle years ago and have developed a lump at the top of my ankle which is now causing pain. I have spoke to a surgeon and they had said that they will drain this lump. He had given me a medical term for the lump but cannot remember the name. Anyone know the name of this condition or were to find information about it?

We have been trying to get pregnant for several months now. I am 20 years old. I have an average 28 day cycle and I had my period on Oct. 21st. I know that I just ovulated a few days ago and we had sex that whole week. I usually get really sore breasts for a few days before my period. Right now my breasts are beginning to get really sore. This is strange because I shouldnt start my period for another couple of weeks. I know that sore breasts are a sign of pregnancy but is it too early? I am not stressing about this I just want to know if it is or not! Thank you!!!

Like a workout schedule? What I do right now is arms and upper body on day one, abs and lower back on day two and legs on day three. All of this is done for 30 minutes. Also I need something to get those six-pack abs...
Thanks
