Just got a cold sore this morning. It's the first one I've had in years. I used to use Zilactin which created a gross film over the sore and made it look worse than it was (although to be totally honest, a cold sore always looks terrible). This time, I bought a tube of Abreva. It was twice the price of the other creams and I'm skeptical that any of the creams ever do anything... but at least it doesn't form a film and it rubs in clear. Thoughts?

A member of my staff has gone home ill today after being sick. Her mother has been sick and it appears she has got the same thing through looking after her. I have looked up the symptoms on NHS and it says that this can be extremely infectious. Technically she should not come in tomorrow but she is a temp and will not want to lose the money. Do I have any rights to demand her not to come in? Thanks

Two dyas ago i carved a small heart into my palm and used red ink to color it. It was fine & looks good. Yesterday i used a needle to slice into my hip an asterik and put red ink into the wound. Today it was extremely sore and looked a little infected. Tonight i sliced a star on my foot and filled it with black ink. I was feelig fine and wasnt worried until today about noon. I stated getting hot and itchy. Now after just taking a shower i realize i have slighty red colors in my skin on my chest mostly and my neck and shoulders. Could that be ink poisoning? What should I do!? Dont ask me why i carved a star on my foot after i started feeling weird today. I cant answer that i; i wasnt thinking.

Please answer this seriously. I am not looking to be called an idiot or immature. I just need to know if i should show my dad, or school nurse and what not.

Please provide liinks if possible!!! :) thanks

my signs and symptoms were: frequency/urgency with urination
doc diagnosis: urinary tract infectioned

1. she prescribed bactrim (an antibiotic)
2. she ordered a urine analisis and sensitivity

(she ordered the antibiotic before she saw the results of the urine test).

5 days later (i was on the bactrim for 5 days), lab called me and said "no infection in the urine".

sooooo....tooc antibiotic for nothing.

is that ok?
why do doctors do that? i mean, why do they prescribe stuff left and right before they know if the patient has an infection or not???
