I have to have a biopsy done because I have a mass inside my mouth and I also have several enlarged cervical lymphnodes in my neck.

I need a question to my answer. My mother-in-law was diagnosis with it about 8 months ago, but her doctor has told her to start drinking wine. It does not sound like a good idea to me but I was just wondering if anyone could give me some info on the matter????

I've had seb derm in my eyebrows almost constantly for 25 + years .Over that period they have thinned considerably as the raising scales tend to 'pull' the hairs out .This is at the stage now where I'm very self concious as patchy eyebrows has the appearance of disease .I've checked out all the sites (currently and for some time only used nizoral during flare ups ],but i'm really at a loss as to what to try orwho to see.I'm a 48 year old male so filling in the patches with make up really isn't an option .I've looked at transplant as a last resort but wouldn't those hairs just fall out eventually anyway .Winter approaches now and this always exacerbates the condition . Anyone have this condition and had a successful transplant ? anyone have advice for some other regime to try ? would u.v light help ?

Recently got a massage with a happy ending. When she was massaging me, she killed a mosquito with her hands and continued massaging me. Will that cause any problem? meaning any kinda STI? Even other than that, the activity that happened, is it risky for any STIs or HIV? no body fluids exchnaged, only happy ending involved.

I start wheezing so bad. Normally I just avoid dogs, or if I am around them, I make sure it is outside where there is plenty of fresh air for me.
I have to spend 3-4 nights at a friend's house this November and she has a dog. She says she will vacuum and clean real well, but I am guessing that I will still have a problem breathing (& sleeping)

Does anyone know what medications are best for pet allergies? Should I try something like Claritin or is Benedryl my best bet? Like I said, I usually take nothing and avoid animals. Anyone suffer like I do? Any suggestions?

Especially when I'm nervous, but even when I'm just sitting in my office at work, my underarms always sweat. I have tried a few different anti-perspirant deodorants over the years, but none is great.

I wash them out and dry them. Then fill with milk to freeze. This means the milk does not go bad as I defrost it when I need it. The bottle can not be cleaned of milk after use so I use a new one each time. What risk to my health can there be as I do wash them first. If health was a problem what about plates ect in a cafe.

My 12 year old daughter has a consistently dirty neck even though she washes daily. I thought at first she was just being lazy and forgetting to wash her neck, but I've scrubbed it clean one day, and within a day or so, it's back to being spotty and dirty. Could this be a fungus or a skin condition of some sort? and how do I treat it if it is?

I'm taking Ofloxacine for a week now for treatment for UTI. My partner has gonorrhea. I'm not sure if I'm also infected. Will Ofloxacine help cure gonorrhea?

Hmm... think I have a cold sore. 1st time ever. Now I understand how herpes is transmitted... how long can it stay dormant before resulting in a cold sore??? Months? Years? Just trying to work out where I picked it up.

I realise this is a phobic condition, not a disease, but the catagories are narrow and 'other' was not listed although it says it is.
