Hair dyes: Hair dyes with continued use may deteriorate the texture of your hair. In addition, some people may  develop an allergic rash or even anaphylactic reaction.

Question 2

Accepted Answer

See details: Maybe the lumps having nothing to do with a std. Have it reevaluated.

Accepted Answer

Side effects: I can understand having gi issues after a prolonged period of taking antibiotics. Side effects of minocycline can include neurological symptoms of lightheadedness,unsteadiness,vertigo,drowsiness and fatigue. Lorazepam also has side effects. However such side effects should eventually clear after stopping these medications and wouldn't last 3 months. See your MD for medical assessment &amp; get advice

Question 4

stabbing eye and head pain. i'm recovering from bronchitis, taking benzonatate and azithromycin. now since yesterday every time i cough or move too fast i've been feeling a very sharp, stabbing like pain (very painful) behind my right eye and directly on

Accepted Answer

Sharp, : Sharp, stabbing pain can be due to dry eyes, which can often be alleviated by artificial tears eye drops. However, the sensitivity to bright light may indicate a different problem. Sometimes there is inflammation in the eye or infections of the eye that may cause the problems you describe.

I recommend that you seek an eye exam from an ophthalmologist (eye physician & surgeon) when you actively have these problems. Using a specialized microscope, the ophthalmologist will determine if you have active inflammation or infection that requires treatment.

Question 5

experiencing side effects (head pressure/dizziness/nervous feeling) since taking last dose of 5-pack azithromycin 2 weeks ago. how much longer?

Accepted Answer

Virus: Likely you have a virus. Antibiotics do not kill viruses only bacteria. Treat youself symptomatically. Get OTC meds at the pharmacy for symptoms.Talk to pharmacist.
If worse Sore Throat, head pressure, nerves contact a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Question 6

3 weeks of hard yellow crust on penis head w/ redness/inflammation. azithromycin (1g) and clotrimazole (2x/day for 10 days) did not work. advice?

Accepted Answer

Balanitis: Usually in cases like these we treat for infection of the skin with candida (yeast) and also staph/strep bacteria. Prescription nystatin and also an antibiotic like Augmentin (amoxicillin and clavulanate) or Keflex. You have been on the wrong medication so far.

Question 7

i have an allergy rash from hair dye. i have been taking benadryl (diphenhydramine) for a few days and it has still not completely gone away. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Rash too?: If scalp is red and itchy as part of the dye reaction, you may need application of topical steroid solution, or oral steroids, to calm down the reaction . These are prescriptions available through your primary doctor, or a dermatologist.

Question 8

can you have a hair dye allergy?

Accepted Answer

Hair dye allergy: Definitely possible to be allergic to hair dye. Rash on scalp or around ears and back of neck after applying dye suggests allergy.

Question 9

is hair dye supposed to sting your hair for a while?

Accepted Answer

HAIR DYE STING: SOME HAIR CAN STING ON THE INITIAL APPLICATION.
IF IT STILL STINGS, GET A DIFFERENT BRAND WITH DIFFERENT INGREDIENTS.
BEST LUCK.
