My daughter had what looked like a cold sore and I put stuff on it, it went away after a fer days. Then suddenly she had a smaller sore next to where the bigger one was. That went away and now she has the start of a new one in the same general area, this has all been in about a two week period. Any ideas what it is and what to do about it.

Its that yellow stuff under the nail that grows. I have used different solutions that you paint on twice a day for about 3 years now. Some will control it but I can't find one to get rid of it. HELP!

I work long days and eat lunch out. Are you bringing food to work or have you found alternative ways to eat? I am most interested in what you consider a meal, since I have a small stomach anyway. Thanks!

I went to the dermatologist yesterday and she removed a mole she thought "didn't look good" and sent it out to be tested for melanoma. I was quite suprised and have never had this procedure done before. She made an elliptical excision without stitches.

The wound covers about 1.5 inches by .5 inches of surfce area and seems to be about the same depth as a quarter. It concerns me that it is this "deep" without any stitches. She suggested this method because my job requires me to be very active and I was concerned about popping stitches.

Has anyone had this done before? How long does it take a wound like this to heal?

Any advice on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

For those of you who have depression, its like you have no reason for living. I have it, I feel like I have no meaning for life, I feel so isolated from the world even though I come in contact with other people every day, and I just feel this great "void" inside of me. Please offer serious suggestions.

I have this severe itch that has lasted a few months off and on which starts at the top of my head and goes to my feet. I see no rash except I do see some little red dots or little red bumps in the palms of my hands.Sometimes I feel as though something is crawling on me or sometimes I feel as though I cannot keep my arms and legs still. I cannot sleep because of this. It is worse at night but I do occassionally have it during the day (like right now). it's the kind of itch that you scratch but cannot ever relieve. I have tried everything.....creams, moisterizers...bath and body stuff....sometimes it helps and sometimes it makes it worse. I also itch up my butt and up my front ears..everywere. The itching feels like a prickley itch and feels like i have a very mild sunburn. I just don't know what to do about this or even what this is. I just know that I need to get some sleep! Please help me.it gets so much worse after drinking alcohol,i have had liver tested & it's fine! help please!!!
