Do chiggers go into your skin to get your blood only, and do they die in there or lay eggs in there or what? What is the purpose of chiggers?

I have poison ivy on my right arm... I have rushes, but they seem to spread, and it is very itchy... ANY tips to prevent from spreading or to get rid off them? I once heard BLEACH was good. Anyone knows any tips?

As some of you may already know, I have had a sty for the last few months now. All the remedies I've tried haven't worked so far (the doctor, warm compresses, tea, milk, prescription anti-biotic medications, you name it). So, now I'm thinking about throwing some Clearasil on my eyelid. The theory is: If the sty is like a pimple, then acne treatment products ought to clear it up. My only problem is: Why hasn't anyone ever thought of this idea before? Am I missing something?

It happened, one of those pesky cold sores on my lower lip. It's been two years since the last. I've been sick lately so I guess it was time. What can I put on it or do that won't cost me much money as I'm low on funds? Looking to speed it up and keep it as small as possible.

I picked up a little spot of ringworm at my mother in laws house from her stupid cat. I didn't have any symptoms for two weeks except for severe itching in the spot. I've never had this problem before and when a spot showed up it took me a good week to figure out what it was. I've been applying lotramin and athletes foot spray on it two to three times a day for a week and a half. yesterday it started flaking a little and peeling like a sunburn kind of but the spot isn't going away. Today it is peeling more and actually leaking clear fluid out of it. I need to know what ringworm looks like and what it does when it's healing? I know what it looks like when it's eating away at the flesh but I would like to know that it is going away, it's very frustrating!

For the last 2 years I have had these flare ups of small blisters on my hands that itch like crazy. They seemed to stay in the same general area at first (index fingers) but have been spreading slowly. I noticed this summer when I swam in a chlorinated pool they went away for a while. What do I have and how do I treat it?

Someone told me a few years back on a medical messageboard that if you put 2 cups of epsom salt in a warm bath and soak in it for half an hour your body acne will go away. I was wondering if anyone has ever tried it and did it work?

Ok, Im 24 and I still have acne. Since I can remember, probably 13, 14 I have been doing one thing or another to clear my acne with varying results. Anyways, I am eating real healthy now, like literally 10 fruits/veggies a day, 2 liters of water, etc etc. I workout everday and have been for the past 3 years,, yet my acne persists.

Soooooo I was thinking, what if I just did nothing. No more creams on my face, no nothing. Just wash it morning and night and thats all.

Has anyone done this also and succeeded? I dont want to hear about peoples acne clearing after puberty because my acne is obviously not puberty related.
