I have this Canker/ Cold soar. Not sure what one it is yet. Its in the corner of my lips and it looks like a small cut. There it is also dry skin in the area of skin underneath the lip. Its all red and dry. Today I put an ice cube on it for a while then I put on some Bactroban cream. I dont want any over the counter medicines. Does anyboy have some home remedies?

I know this sounds crazy but I had a facial with microdermabrasion and an oygen treatment. My skin looked great when I left the salon. A few hours later I went to an extremely difficult hot yoga class and sweated very very heavily. Since then my skin has looked awful. Did I harm my skin by going to this class so soon after the treatment?

I used a powerful ovencleaner, my oven is now really clean but my hands are terrible damaged through the cleaning-liquid!
My skin is dry, red and craked. It looks awful and it is painful.
Should I go to the doctor or goes this automatically with a few days away? Do I need to use a skin moisturiser or something?

I am still sick with pneumonia going into my 6th week, the first 2 weeks I didnt see a DR untill by the 2nd week i was having a hard time trying to take a breath or even get the air in me to sneeze. At the end of the 2nd week I was forced to go to the doctor she was wanting to admit me in the hospital and I refused to go I do need to work. To week later I had to have more chest x-rays to confirm that I still have pneumonia. Now this is the 6th week and I am still sick.

This is the most strangest illness I have ever had in my life. I didnt get fluid in my lungs so I wast coughing up flem. So I didnt think anything about it.
my body temp is normal at 97.2 but for 2 weeks I was running temmps from 102 to 103. So I haad to go last Mon for more x-rays and I was told I still have pnuemonia and that I have to go back for more x-rays inn 2 more week.

I am not old only 48 and I am a type 2 diabetic

Does anyone anything about this pnumoina and why I have had it so long?

I have never heard of this procedure, even with 17 years of caregiving in a hospice environment. My mom is scared to death. Can anyone tell me what this involves? Is it as risky as it sounds? Is this common practice?

To fill you in a bit.... he had prostate and bladder cancer. They did surgery and removed the tumor. Since the surgery he has not been able to tolerate any kind of oral nutricion (not even water). It's been a week. Now they are saying they HAVE to do this procedure. We NEED real info on this. I promised my mom I'd research it for her, but I don't even know where to begin. Any info would be greatly appriciated! Thanks so much.

My boyrfriend has a rash. It started as just a few tiny bumps, but then it turned to a scab. This is the second time this has happened. The first time, he went to the doctor and she said it didn't look like any STD she had seen, and the test came back negative. Now, it has come back again. He does seem to be irritated in the same area if he uses latex, and my nuva ring did the same. Three weeks ago, I switched my birth control. The bumps never got any bigger, and they didn't spread. He said that it does not hurt or itch. This seems to happen after he shaves. I've checked pictures online and it doesn't look like anything I can find. We have been together for 2 1/2 years, and I don't have any reason to believe he has been unfaithful. I just got my annual in July and everything was negative also. Can somebody please tell me what this could be?
