I was reading somewhere on the internet that zits that never go away could be some type of staff infection and left untreated it can go into the blood stream. The doctor said that my boil is probably a bacterial infection caused by a small cut. He said he didn't see a cut but that doesn't mean it wasn't there. Do you think that my viral zit went into my blood stream and is spreading?

I am looking for some literature that recommends or shows that central venous catheters should have bungs attached to ports. i.e , open ports are a source of infection.
Thank you.

I got a cold over the weekend and he prescribed me some other pill but it is not completely safe for pregnancy so I am just sticking with the amoxicillin for a couple more days.

My fiance told me that he heard on the news that the Norwalk Virus is affecting a whole lot of the United States and what I'd most like to know is whether or not it is affecting Orlando, because I just happen to live in Orlando.

Hi, I have had chronic thrush for many years now. Does anybody have a method/remedy etc that has helped them to clear up thrush. It is so bad that I basically live with it daily now:(

Also my partner has contracted it, and he never had it before meeting me.

Many Thanks

Two days ago I was bitten on the Adams apple by, what I believe was, a zombie mosquito.

I'm not sure if Anopheline zombification is transferrable transgenetically, but ever since then I've exhibited some classic symptoms of zombification; however, I still like to go onto Y! Answers, I still eat peanut butter & jelly, and I do not eat much meat, let alone human flesh.

Based on this picture (taken 3 days after bite from a anopheles zombificus [zombie mosquito]), can you tell me if I am becoming a full zombie? (Note the necrosis around the area of the bite, as well as around some minor scratches on lip & forehead).
