My son, daughter and husband have it. I have been bathing the kids in Dove and using an ointment the dermatologist prescribed but it doesn't seem to work. The ointment also discolors their skin. I would like to try something more natural.

I found that almost 2 months ago, I had chlamydia. I took two weeks of doxycycline, and a dose of .. whatever the medcine that starts with "azyth" is called. Sometimes, I'll have a little bit of irritation in my urethra. It's mild, and comes and goes rarely. Could I still be infected?

my daughter wants to join the armed forces. but one of her legs is 4.5cm shorter than the other. She has been offered an op to sort it out but has now turned it down. She has been told that if left alone she will get problems with her back, pelvis, knees, ankles and possibly feet.
Will this affect her chances of getting into the forces on medical grounds?

I have had this problem for awhile now, its even been one of my old questions. Ok well here is the problem...

I went to the airport and ate at ManchuWok chinese food at the foodcourt, then I got on a plane to Las Vegas, met up with my sister and her bf, and we ate at another crappy place, (service was bad, food was bad) my sister and her bf suffered stomach aches, but they got better. Me, I wasnt. My allergies suddenly became 100x worse, it felt like there was a knot in my chest, chest pain, nausea, loss of appetite. After awhile, the knot in my chest went away, allergies went away, but the nausea didnt. It has been about two months, and every time I eat food, I get nauseated. This all started since I ate at ManchuWok.

My question is... What is wrong with me? (I cannot go to the doctor right now due to financial problems...)

This is serious and I dont want people giving some random answer, please help.

He has it on his arms, legs he gets it becomes brighter when he is in the sun. The daycare provider said he is the 4th one to get this and he is contagious. Doesn't seem to itch, or hurt him. He doesn't have a fever.

I went to the MD on Tuesday because the skin on my breast area, upper back, and lower back were hurting horribly (all on the right side of my body). The skin still hurts, and she gave me an anti-viral medicine to treat shingles. Is it possible to have shingles without having a rash? I have a few bumps here and there, but nothing like the pictures I've seen.

My BF went haying with my dad one day. He came home and reported that his back itched a lot. As the days went by he kept scratching and saying how it felt like something was crawling under his skin. When I looked, it looked like there was just a pimple there where it was itchy. About a week later we were lying in bed and I looked at the place on his back and it didn't look normal. Like a hardened swollen bump. I told him and he said squeeze it. So I did. Out came some watery pus, a little blood and finally something long and black. When we put it on a tissue it looked like a worm, my BF moved it around and it was moving its head! He said its some kind of worm but we don't know what. We were going to take it to the doctor to be analyzed so we put it in a pill bottle. Its dead now and not moving. It is the grossest thing I have ever seen in my life. Real small. The area on his back has yet to heal. It's healing slowly but has turned scaly (like dried skin) and started off a hardened bump

My sister gets sores on the side of her mouth. I asked her if she had herpes and she said that they are just pimples that she picks at habitually until they look like that. I don't believe her. I caught her kissing my baby and she got offended because I told her to keep her mouth away from her. I want her to act as if it is herpes. I know it sounds rude but she hasn't been tested, she refuses to get tested. I don't want my baby to get herpes. I don't want any of my family to. What do you think I should do? Also, during pap smears do they screen for that?
