Question 1

could compeed blister plasters contain latex?

Accepted Answer

I don't believe so: but I do know Astroplast Pico Blister Plasters claim to be latex free and you can get on internet. It should say on package.

Question 2

hi i have a cold sore.i was wondering if its safe to use compeed patches when pregnant ?

Accepted Answer

Medication: You can use this over the counter remedy but there are medications that can be prescribed that work better and faster. Acyclovir or similar medications are effective at reducing the duration of oral Herpes outbreaks

Question 3

had a cold sore 1month ago.used patches(compeed). it went away after 8 days but the area is still a little bit redish compared to the surrounding lips.like discolored.can i do something to quickly get rid of scar?

Accepted Answer

: Any skin injury, sore, ulcer, etc -- no matter what the cause -- commonly stays red for a while after healing. It will clear up over a few more weeks or months. In the meantime, make-up to cover it is your only option. By the way, Compeed has no herpes benefit. You can most quickly stop oral herpes outbreaks with a single 2g dose of valacylvoir by mouth if you take it at first sign. Good luck.

Question 4

why do bullies have superiority complex?

Accepted Answer

It is just a front: Bullies try to project an image if superiority to cover up their real feelings of inferiority. By picking on kids, they try to cover up their emotional and social  inadequacy. But their behaviors have devastating effects on the victums.That is why their behaviors must be dealt without delay and stopped. Most bullies barely finish high school, have jobs that lack skill and have criminal records.

Question 7

i always feel sick for a couple of years now?

Accepted Answer

Consult w/ your PCP: I would establish care with a primary care doctor or provider in person if at all possible. 

Sounds like you need a thorough history and physical exam to help figure things out. "sick" means different things to different people, and it would take time to figure out your symptoms and what, if any, tests need to be ordered to figure things out.

Question 8

Accepted Answer

Why do you ask?: Human tissues can be disolved in certain acids / chemicals over a period of time.

Question 9

what are some of the reasons many feel compelled to diet?

Accepted Answer

Being or feeling: Overweight or obese, need to lose  or gain weight, peer pressure , lack of self esteem, medical illnesses, among other things.

Question 10

minor pain in lower left side, off and on for couple months.?

Accepted Answer

Rule out cancer: How old are you?  What is your gender?  What type of pain? Any relation to eating, bowel movement etc?  Since the pain has persisted for two months, you need to rule out serious intra-abdominal pathology, including cancer.
