First Aid

One night when we were all fast asleep, my fifteen-year old daughter suddenly got up, wailing in pain telling me that an ant went inside her ear and it's really hurting as it walks inside. She tried to use the ear pick to try to get the ant out but to no avail. We suggested to blow smoke from the cigarette to kill the ant but the thought of making go further inside or die made us think twice it might be more difficult to get it out. Good enough, after a while, she felt the ant was walking toward the outer ear and I saw it came outside naturally. My worry is if it happens again to any of us, what must be done at once while in the house??

I pierced my ear lobes. I think the lumps might just be scar tissue but im not sure. It makes it hard for me to get my earrings back in sometimes and it usually takes numerous painful attempts before the earrings eventually get back in. Should I be worried or will the lumps just go away over time. Does anyone know how long it takes to go away?

I tried taking it out using water, but it ended up moving to a non-visible part of my eye, maybe near the back? Should I see a doctor? I'm extremely worried I might slowly lose my vision with my hair still there.

I got an industrial cartilage piercing a few days ago or more and I've been cleaning it twice a day with Lever 2000 but its still oozing and crusty. Is this normal? And if not, what should I clean it with? Should I put peroxide on it? I don't want to get a keloid!

Obviously, every person in ahome should be able to dial the Emergency Number with clear instructions and a First Aid kit in homes is always a good idea, but what natural household products can be used for First Aid?

I know pepper can be used for cuts, aloe for burns (after it's been under running cold water for at least 10 minutes) but are there more?

I'm pretty much addicted to " Purell Hand Sanitizer " But today when I went to rub it on my shoulders, since I use my shoulders to close light switches.

Then alittle less than a pea size amount splashed on to my lip and my reaction was to lick it off.. Yeah, how stupid was I. Now is this much of a risk, I didn't taste anything, It may of been my imagination or some spit, but If it really did happen, would I be harmed?

Let say you eat at McDonalds and there are two EMT’s in uniform sitting down the table next to you. You fall down to the floor with chest pains. Is it the EMT’s job to immediately come to your rescue and provide medical EMS service… or do the EMT’s there call another EMS to do it?

I got stitches in my finger after i accidentally cut it with an exacto knife. My mom took the stitches out because she is a nurse, but there is still a part left in there. It is the part where the stitch goes under the skin. i was afraid for her to pull it out and it still hasn't been pulled out. How long can i keep it in? What will happen if i never take it out? Will it work its way out eventually? How bad will it hurt?

OK. I just accidentally shot my right hand and I don't know what to do. I don't have any med. coverage, so I can't go to a doctor. It's just a small hole, so I doubt it's very serious, but it really hurts. What should I do???
