I always get really itchy whenever I get bit, but this time on my face it is so bad it has spread to my neck. What can I use to stop the itching? It is literally driving me crazy! I've tried the cortisone type creams and they make it worse!

such as wrinkles and fine lines also studies have shown it will cause cancer if used in a long term which you must consistently use this product even once you have gotten rid of all your pimples, a clear face, but you still have to use it forever, otherwise the pimples would break out once you stop using it...i don't want to risk aging my skin or risk getting cancer, is there any other product that has no side effect ? any other product besides benzoyl peroxide? i saw the regime on acne. org but i'm thinking what if you take away the benzoyl cream and only have the cleanser and the moisturizer in the regime without the benzoyl cream, would this still heal my acne condition? clear it , i wont need to worry even if i have to use it forever it will only positive for me or are there other product with no side effect?

Oftentimes when i go on weekend trips i get several bug bites and the people who are with me get none. Family members have told me that it's because Diabetes runs in my family, could this be a contributor? Also if you have anysuggestions to help the itching or preventative measures, I would be glad to hear them. I do use mug sprays but they don't seem to work, even ones with deet.

Okay a friend of mines told me that every single time you take a bath your tan washs off. Im not talking about spray tans or tans that come from lotions, im talking about real-lay-in-the-sun types of tans. Is this true??

Ok well I've had this mole since I was born. It's never gotten bigger or changed...oh and its not freakishly black, grey, or blue. Just a normal brown one. My dermatoligist said its probably nothing but he suggested we get it removed just in case because the outer ring seems to be just a little lighter than the middle. So I got it removed to day. He said he knows for 100% sure that its not melanoma thank God!!! But he said there's a slight possibility that it could be pre cancer or abnormal and if thats the case I have get some cuts and stiches or something he said. What are the chances of this? If I hafta get this done is is a huuuge deal? He acted like its not really. Just about as serious as taking off the mole. Anyone have expirience with pre cancer or abnormal moles? Is anyone undergoing treatment or a survivor of melanoma? I'd love to hear your story and please answer my questions! Thankyou!!!

I have one pretty big and nasty wart on my foot and it's getting to be really annoying. I've tried using a couple of different methods, like bandages with little pads of acid but those didn't work. I also tried this kit where you wash your feet, use a provided file and scrub down the wart and then put some acid on the wart. I did this for around three weeks and it didn't have any effect. Does anyone have a good idea of how to get rid of them for good? And I'm trying to avoid duct tape as I heard it actually doesn't get rid of the wart for good.
Thanks

I went to a free skin cancer screening and was told I should come back to have 2 dysplastic nevi (abnormal moles) looked at. Has anyone has this done before and had everything turn out ok? My appt is in 2 weeks and I'm completely freaking out about this!
The last time I was at the doc was 6 months ago to have my annual gyno exam (everything ok). One of the moles is on my breast and my OB never mentioned anything about it (she had to do a breast exam on me... also, I had a baby last year so saw lots of docs- don't you think one would mention something if something looked suspicious?).
I do have a photo of me from 2 years ago in a bathing suit (one mole is on my breast) and I can see the mole and it looks pretty much the same, but it definitely is dysplastic nevi.
Can someone help calm me down? Thanks!!!!

Ive had it for as long as I can remember (10yrs or so), could it be from biting my nails? It does get sore sometimes as the skin splits and the cuticles also come away from the nail, its maily on my thumbs and pointer finger.
Could it also be a vitamin deficency? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

I've had this sweating problem for a long time now. It's so bad that even after using antiperspirant, I would still have HUGE sweat stains on my shirts (in both hot and cold climates). It's really embarrassing!

I was so excited because I tried Certain-Dri and it worked...for about a month. One day it just stopped working and I don't know why. It hasn't worked since.

Before I make a trip to the doctor, does anyone have ANY suggestions of what could possibly help my problem? I've also tried Secret, Secret Clinical Strength, Teen Spirit, and Speed Stick.

Thanks so much! =)

I'm looking for names of over the counter creams--my pediatrician said to try Aquaphor, but it hasn't made a difference, and when I put it on he cries, which makes me think it might be stinging him or something.
Help? He's SO miserable right now...
