Has anyone here ever been bitten by a spider? It's like my worst nightmare but luckily I live in England where it's too cold for evil spiders! That's the only good thing about the dodgy weather here.......

I'm so grossed out, please tell me what this bug is. It was alive when I found it in the kitchen and killed it with a book. When I saw it it was on it's hind legs waving its arms in the air and waving its antennas around. I really hope it's not a deadly bug.. or even worse a roach. Please help me thanks!!!

ps- the photos are of the dead bug.. nasty sorry

The sting in my eyes
the cut on my arm
what you don't know
will do you no harm

The blade in my room
black clothes in my closet
The blood on my desk
is just a deposit

Can I live though this pain?
But how could it end?
Will I ever see you
will my heart mend?

I don't think it will
My spirit is broken
I've lost it already
It's full of your toxin

Just been bitten by my hamster - my own fault; I woke him up! It drew a little blood. Cleaned it straight away - I'm not too concerned but just wanted to check with you knowledgeable folk as to whether I should consider getting a tetanis. Not sure when I had one last...

And if I should where should I go? GP?

Thank you

So I was scratching in my "butt crack" and I scratched too hard and cut it with my finger nail. Pretty gross huh. Well it was a little cut and barely bled so I put a band aid on it and it was fine. A day or two later I wake up and strain my neck. I have a pinched nerve and I can't move my neck without having extreme pain. Well now I'm sitting in weird straight positions right on my new cut making it much worse. So for four days I didn't shower or change my clothes and made the cut worse. My neck healed but now I have a bad cut in a really awkward place. I've been putting band aids on it with neosporin but it still hurts. The area around it on my butt is tender and it hurts to walk and I can't sit down. The cut bleeds or spews pus, it sort of just switchs on and off. Is my cut infected? What should I do? Go to the doctor? And if I do what will the doctor do exactly? I'm sure its not a tetanus thing because it was my fingernail that cut it. Help me please. Thanks.

I cut my foot recently and I need some advice. It seems to be okay and not infected. Is it better to keep neosporin and a band-aid on it or let it dry out and try to scab over? Being diabetic I know it will take longer to heal but please let me know how to handle it.

I'm 14 and I frcatured my ankle yesterday when I landed wrong on it while playing basketball. It hurt so bad It wouldn't stop hurting and I never thought a fractured ankle wouldhurt that bad, my arm didn't even hurt that bad when I broke it. . I have a long leg cast on but unfortunatly I have to use crutches. I will eventually get a short leg cast but for now I'm stuck on cructhes. None ofmy friends know that I hurt it because I have been busy getting used to the cast an crutches. Luckily they gave me a wheelchair to use but I want to use crutches to attract less attention. I'mkind of worried about what will happen at school. like what will people say and how will I get around. My parents are letting me ride the bus and I think that it's a good idea because that way atleast some kids will be able to see it before I get to school and I can see how they will react

There is a type of contact solution (i forget the brand) that you are supposed to use only in the little test-tube looking container. My boyfriend accidentally put it in a case (which the bottle warns you not to do) and the instant I put them in my eyes, a terrible burning sensation occured and my eyes are beet red and still hurt. Has this happened to anyone before? Do you think it's ok if I don't go to the doctor?

Also, it could have been the antibacterial hand cream that I used prior to putting them in my eyes that could have caused it. However, when I tried putting my other one in, I didn't even use it. That's why I'm assuming it was the solution.. Someone please help me!

im only like 12 im a cheer leader at RMS && i REALLY REALLY want my belly button pierced but my mom said i can't untill im 13 or 14.....i dont know why though...so im going to pirce my belly button soon && i just need o know if this sounds rite

1. make sure you get a needle and sterilize it and put it in alcohol and peroxide on it before inserting it into your skin.

2. while pushing it through be sure to wit it once in a hile so that it goes thorugh more easily. somtimes it will hurt but it is worth it.

3. 0nce it is pierced be sure to get "ear are" cleaning solution or any other type of piercing solution to clean out your belly button and keep it from from infection.

4. after getting it pierced do not "play" with your belly button ring because this could lead to infection.

5. twist the ring from time to time but not constantly, maybe once a day!

6. get it when your young so you can have it for a long long time!:)

its from the internet, does it sound correct?

I know there are a few questions similar but its better to ask with my own issues to get a more specific answer.

I had my nose pierced 2 weeks ago and yesterday I got what I assume is an infection. I've been treating it no differently, maybe being a little bit more precautious, using Dr. Pierce (the anti bacterial stuff from my piercer) on the inside and outside of my nose along with some Polysporin.
There was a small yellow-y bubble just under the stud that I was able to wipe away (pretty sure it was pus) a few hours later but the hole is still red and swollen and there is still a bit of pus hanging around.

Also now when I apply the dr pierce and especially the polysporin to the inside of my nose it causes a sharp sting, even moving the post stings a bit.

Should I just keep using the anti bacterial stuff and polysporin or try something else/see a doctor?

Thanks guys!

Out of no where my nose just started leaking blood like a focet. I plugged the nostril that was bleeding, bleed all the way through the toilet paper, and started bleeding out the other, so i plugged both and let it leak out until it stopped. Anyone know if this is serious or why it happened at all.

Today while in the shower i came across a small growth on my side that resembles and sort of feels like a pimple. But i know it isnt one. It is a piece of my skin, and im concerned about what it is. Its as small as a pimple, but more irritating. I do have one on my neck too, and i dont want to rip it off but its bothering me. What are these small growths?
