I have an eyelash that has become ingrown. You can see the eyelash, but a thin layer of skin has grown completely over it. I've tried to pick at it, but it is so tender my eyes start watering every time I touch it. Any suggestions (before I call the doctor in the morning)?

Suppose I have a killer toothache and I take a couple aspirin. After a half hour, the pain is still there, so I take a couple tylenol. After another half hour the pain is STILL there, so I take an ibuprophen and call my dentist. Now, assuming I have normal blood pressure and don't drink often (2-3 per week) , is there any danger in this?

My doctor gave me 75mg of Lyrica to take at bedtime for Fibromyalgia. I'm curious if anyone can tell me if they have taken this low dose and if they saw any improvement in the stiffness of joints and muscles. Everything I've read so far was relief after taking 150+ mg several times a day.

Thanks!!

I get up in the morning. My throat hurts. I got to school, and it feels better. The second I get home my upper throat begins to hurt. When it hurts is practically like clockwork. I just went back to school 2 days ago (when it began to hurt). Is it possible from the lack of sleep (getting up at 5:30 instead of 8:30), the fact that I have to talk extremely loud (I was practically screaming during my lunch period since I could barely hear a thing), and the possibility I caught something at school, that I got sore throat? Thanks for the answers!

What the heck is that about? I mean if your labia are causing discomfort or something, I understand, but do women really do this just for cosmetic reasons?

I ran across before and after pictures, and a lot of the afters looked worse than the befores.
Besides, I thought a lot of guys liked fuller lips?
I'm confused.

Yeah, that’s it...I'm twitching. My eye really... so I'm here asking what may be causing it, and what should probably do about it, cause I’m figuring it’s not a very good thing.

I find that I'm exhausted throughout the entire day. I got my iron tested, and the results came back normal. I have a few pretty stressful situations going on (2 yr old, work, and full-time student... among other things) I really need to be able to stay on my toes all day. Caffeine is out of the question.
Also, I get about 6-8 hours of sleep, so sleeping isn't the answer.
Any ideas?

When someone barely grabs my arms or put one finger on my chest, under my throat, it is so painful. It feels like they are touching a bad bruise. Also, when I sleep at night my ears will actually ache from laying on them. It hurts my hips and shoulders too when laying on my side. My grandfather has this but he is 88. I am only 36. It is so painful.

Have you had any help in changing to somerhing else that had less bothersome side effects? Is it true that an older person cannot tolerate these drugs as well as a younger person?? Thanx!

I mean..... I had a great workout day before yesterday and I'm truly sore all over.. (( good sore, but non the less , sore )) I was sore "even" when I breathed.. my lungs hurt. Like I had a chest cold .. a lady I work for , told me that I exercised my lungs and they are sore from my deep breathing . Is this possible? I do not have a cold, nor am I coughing.

I must have scratched my face in my sleep last night because I woke up with a small cut. I would like it to heal before the weekend so I put Neosporin and a Band-Aid over it because I read that is the fastest way to heal a cut (keeping it moist). How long do I need to keep it covered for quickest healing?
