It looks like tiny red spots or tiny blisters. Its on my arms across my back and on my face (on the nose and by the corners of my mouth, on my lips and leading across my chin). although it doesn't look the same on my face - its red and lumpy but not spotty. I haven't eaten differently, used anything different on my skin or on my clothes. So what is it? Help! I can't wear my make-up!

I have been reading about the Black Death of the 14th century and became curious as to how a disease is classified and the guidelines used to do so. Is the classification contingent upon mortality rate, number of persons infected, length between infection and onset of symptoms? The plague wiped out 1/3 of Europe's population, but how would it be classified now? I know the common cold could once have been a death sentence, but now we treat it with over the counter meds.

Just curious how long the skin around someone's eyes stays pulled tight. I've never had it, but seen a few celebrities who have, so I've wondered what the duration of the stretching is.

The older doctors could teach and even do research in the world's most populace nation. This would be a win, win situation for a doctor who believes their fellow man is worth a few of his or her good years. It would sure help save a lot of babies and help the world live healthier. And, God would bless them.

I get woken every morning between 4-5a.m. with a sneezing attack that lasts for about an hour or more. Then the allergies aren't so bad for the rest of the day, but I always wonder why I have to suffer through two awful hours before the symptoms improve.

Neosporin is making a fortune with ad campaigns because people put the stuff on every little cut they get!! Come on; it's an antibiotic ointment and can make skin alot worse if it is not infected!!! You only use it for an INFECTION!! Please stop telling folks to use it on every little nick that they get; or scars. PLEASE! It can kill healthy skin cells if there is no infection. So can peroxide & alcohol - these are only used for 'dirty' wounds. Soap and water; and a dry bandage changed daily is the proper protocol for 90% of all minor cuts and wounds. Please stop giving Neosporin/tripple-antiobiotic ointments money by recommending it for everything! Thank you.
