Skin Conditions - September 2007

I have stretch marks on my legs,bottom and lower back,they look so ugly and i'm afraid to wear skirts because of it. I also worry about my bf feeling my stretch marks when he touches me,they are noticable and can be felt easily. I dont want advice on what to use because i know all that,my question is has your bf seen your stretch marks and what is their reaction to it?do you wear clothes that show your stretch marks?

Scabies????
My friend and I went shopping yesterday, when she got to the mall after riding in my car, she decides to tell me that earlier in the day she went to the Doctor and was Diagnosed with SCABIES!!??!?! How likely am I to have caught this from just being around her yesterday and two days before?

hi all,
this is just great. i have a bunch of ringworms all over my arms and a couple on my stomach. what do i do now?

i heard applying iodine and leaving it on for 30 seconds will help significantly. i just put some on, and its itching. maybe that means its working. ?

also, i touched things, slept on my bed, and wore my clothes, and sat on my couches and chairs. i don't want to catch ringworm again after its gone, so do i need to wash all of these things or something?

gosh, this is making me freak out.

I have no rash, no redness or any visible symptoms...but my hands feet and scalp are itching like crazy. I just walked bare foot outside and my feet started itching so bad that it was more like a burning sensation. I have never had any allergies and don't have a stuffy nose, congestion, etc. Does anyone know what this could be?

One lady told me that it's because of switching deodorants a lot, but I don't switch that much, & I still get them. I can use Dove deodorant for 6 mos. & still get the boils. Other people say it's the aluminum in it, but I don't see aluminum listed as an ingredient.

For a few months now, I've been having problem's with only one of my feet. The bottom of it is peeling really bad. I have callus and it will peel down to the skin if you pick at it too much. It's not really affecting my toes very much. The only toe is my little one, the back of it peels a little bit and the outside part of my foot peels. The affected area starts on the bottom right under my toes and goes to the middle part of my foot. It sometimes itches, and when it does it's bad, but not all the time. I've used Dr. Scholl's for her cracked heel cream, which I used before and it softened my skin, but now it's not working, and I've tried athlete's foot cream, which doesn't do much either. My husband has had athlete's foot for years, but we've only been together for almost a year, and my feet were perfectly fine before that. Is it athlete's foot that I have or something else? Should I just tell the doctor or is there something else I can try? Let me know if u need more info!

For some reason, I get cysts all the time (and yes, I do know the difference between cysts and clogged/infected pores and zits). I have a small one on the side of my head, and have had it for over a year, had one under my jaw, and I get them constantly between my upper thighs (from my legs rubbing together maybe?). I just find it strange since I am never cyst-free, there is always one somewhere! Does anyone know why I am constantly getting these?

Thanks!

hi im a guy and ive recently looked at other guys hands and noticed all of their hands are either hard and scaly or hard and rough, sorta like chipped up. Mine just look regular. I was wonder if hard and crusty hands have anything to do with preventing sweaty palms. If so how can i make my hands like that?

It's very red and bumps are starting to form, what can i buy for him to get better quick and to prevent it from happening, p.s. he is not fat, it is just from walking so much and wearing rough material.

The school nurse "thinks" that there "appears to be" nits in my son's hair. He's been using a shampoo with selenium sulfide 2.5% for well over 10 yrs for dandruff--this stuff also treats ringworm. If it is used to treat ringworm, can lice exist in the treated hair long enough to plant their nits? By the way, he has a doctor's appt in an hr, hopefully I'll get an answer...If not, I'll ask a pharmacist...Thanks!
