Health - 8 December 2006

Several months back had an itch on my back I scratched what seemed to be a mosquito bite or similar got bigger about the size of a Quarter dark in color oozy weny 2 one dr. told me to put cortizone cream on it then i seemed to get more. went to another dr he said looked like a fungal infection and gave me meds nystantin. 3 tubes now I have used the one on my back has healed but new ones appearing every day . they start off like 2 tiny red spots close together very itchy then I scratch then they get crusty and form a small circle about the size of a pencil eraser so I put more nystantin on the new ones and every day a new one appears. I have tried vinegar baths no help there went to the doc again said the were not ringworms to small of a circle dark in color and leaves a scar even the ones i dont even scratch I resist the urge to scratch not that itchy no more than a flea bite any one ever had something like this desperate for an answer also bones hurt a great deal since all this

I recently turned 14. I am a 34B. I am 5'9" and 120 lbs. I haven't started my period, but I've had discharge for a year. I want to go to the doctor, but I don't know if my mom will take me because she'll probably just tell me it's nothing to worry about. I am tired of hearing this! I just want to get over the wait and suspense!
Is there anything that will make it come faster?

I'm a 28 yr old female, 5'4" tall, 120 pounds. I've been eating a cheeseburger, medium fries and small coke once a week, every week, all my life. I've decided not to eat fast food anymore. My cholesterol is 201. Will giving up the food help to lower it? I workout regularly, 5 times a week, lift weights, and eat pretty healthy otherwise - this was just my once a week mega fat treat and I'm done with it now.

My friend was using an eyelash curler and she was suddenly caught by surprise by a sneeze with a vengence!!! When she sneezed, the curler RIPPED out half of her lashes on her top lid!!! She is concerned that they may not grow back due to the manner in which they were extracted! Does anybody know about if she will have trouble growing them back?

Thanks!

It happened because I was in the locker room and I reached to get something on the floor from my locker and a woman whose locker was above mineleft her door open, so when I shot up I smashed my head into the locker door( these doors are solid cherry wood so it's rock hard) I don't really remmeber what happened in teh next few minutes except that I fell to the floor and my head was in pain for the next half an hour...I know that i should see my doctor but my mom won't take me unless she knows for sure that there's something wrong with me, i only get the sharp pains when I stand up...is it possible that i have a concussion? I've already looked up the symtoms online...

I'm 15. I want to get circumcise, I haven't talk to my dad yet, 'cause I find it a little embarassing. So I'm asking YOU! When did you get circumcise?? (a little personal, but hey, no one gonna remember what you said) What age do you think a male should do it?
Thank you!
