I was cleaning my pool and I was putting chlorine in and a ton just splashed into my left eye! What can I do to relieve the pain? It feels like there is a rock inside there too,but I looked and nothing was there.

....I wear leave-in contact lenses, but had something irritating in one today and took it out to rinse it. I usually use multi purpose saline solution which you can use to rinse the lenses and put them straight back in. However, I forgot that my optician gave me some new solution to try and when I rinsed my lens off and put it back in, it was excrutiatingly agonising. Upon reading the bottle, I discovered it's one of the fluids you have to leave to 'neutralise' for 6 hours, so I presume I subjected my poor eye to a hefty dose of hydrogen peroxide! I rinsed my eye for ages in running water, but it's steadily got worse during the day. It's now really swollen, bloodshot, won't stop watering and seems to have what looks like a water blister over the whole eyeball.

Has anyone else done this before, I'm just wondering if it will this settle down over time, or do I need to get it looked at?

It really hurts : ((

My mother had a blister that popped but now it's bleeding. It's been bleeding for an hour without clotting. I worry that this maybe a side effect of the blood thinners she's on. When should I take her to the doctor?

Thanks! ; D

i was at the beach yesterday and i threw a sandy rock into the ocean and a grain of sand cut through the skin and lodged into my fingertip. i tried to get it out, but my fingers were dirty. i let it be after about 20 minutes assuming there was nothing in there, but today it's a little red and hurts to put pressure on it, as though it were a shard of glass. it looks like a tiny water blister, but the pain makes me think that the grain is clear and that's what i'm seeing. it's deep and went in on an angle so there's no way i can get to it with tweezers or a needle. can this cause infection? HOW can i get it out myself?

Hey everyone. So i was on Miami Beach with my 3 years old and all of a sudden she starts screeming. She points to what she said bit her and it was a jelly fish. So i go to the life guard and they put vinegar on it. He said she will be fine and that its no big deal. She did stop crying but when i went to take her a bath she started crying again and saying that it hurts. Is there anything that i can buy to take the pain away? Should i bring her to the hospital? Also when a Jelly fish stings u does it spred? Cause i didnt go near it and i have a few spots on me that feel like a burning feeling on my neck and hand? Please help.......

I've never really gotten sunburned before but yesterday I really got it. I think it really had to do with my meds which instruct to avoid exposure to the sun. My husband really wanted to take me to the airshow so I put on sunblock (SPF 50! I never used something that strong) and thought I would be ok since I never really burn that bad. Well, I'm scorched!! Red as a lobster and everything. My face doesn't really hurt but my arms are killing me. Plus my arms throb and this morning my right arm wouldn't stop cramping. It hurts so bad I can barely sleep. I've been putting on my aloe vera ice burn relief stuff which usually helps but this time it doesn't seem to be doing any good. Any suggestions?? I'm not sure what to do since I've never been burned this bad before. I usually just turn a little pink then tan because of my dark skin. Thanks for all your help!

I believe I was stung by a bee yesterday evening while 4-wheeler riding in the woods. My leg started stinging and then a small whelp appeared. I didn't pay it any attention until this morning, my leg kept itching. Then I noticed a big whelp with a small black dot in the middle. I am NOT allergic to bees. Anyone have any home remedies to get the stinger out?
