Question 1

will curd add to obisity?

Accepted Answer

Too much will: Any food in excess will contribute to weight gain.

Question 2

how to heal a cut faster?

Accepted Answer

Rest, don't pick.: How long a cut takes to heal depends on where it is on your body, and how deep it is.  If it is in an area of movement, like over a joint or is widened when you use the muscles under it, then movement will keep it from coming together. Clean it with mild half strength soap, and cover with Bacitracin twice a day.  Don't pick.  Avoid moving the affected part ( a splint may be required).

Question 3

got a bad clod what to take ?

Accepted Answer

Lemony honey tea: Drink warm fluids (clear soups, tea, etc), rest, stay warm and avoid spreading it to others or back to yourself. Blow nose, don't sniff it back into throat. Discard tissues, wash hands often. Once better - get a new toothbrush. Ask a pharmacist to recommend OTC symptom relief. I hope you feel better soon.

Question 4

how can you treat a knife cut?

Accepted Answer

Superfast healing: The real question is what not to do that slows down healing. Avoid using alcohol, peroxide, hibiclens, betadine, and bleach solutions. Inflammation ( red, hot, swollen, tender) is important to healing  so anti-inflammatories (motrin, advil) are bad. Cover the area with a clean dressing changed every other day  and protected from trauma.  Antibiotics do not help healing unless it is truly infected.

Question 5

can curds be consumed at night?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Curds may be consumed at any time.

Question 6

is superglue for kids cuts safe?

Accepted Answer

Would not use: The glue used in by physicians in emergency rooms (= tissue adhesives) and "superglue" you get at a store are different. I would not use superglue on my child's cut. See:

Question 7

why do some kids cut themselves?

Accepted Answer

Complex and varied: There may be a variety of reasons why some may inflict self induced injuries but in any case it is a sign of a serious underlying disorder which requires evaluation. While it may be viewed as attention seeking, it may reflect advanced depression with suicidal ideation.

Question 8

how should i treat my baby's cut?

Accepted Answer

BABY's CUT: It depends on the cut. First clean it with soap and water and put a band- aid on it. If deep and bleeding, put pressure on the cut by clamping the two edges together with your fingers, then put a butterfly band- aid to coaptate the edges. Keep clean and dry. Cover with gauze. Recheck in two days, if wet and infected see your md for rx.

Question 9

how to make cuts less noticeable?

Accepted Answer

Mederma: If you are referring to healed cuts (scars), then Mederma cream may help shrink/thin out scar tissue.  It is over the counter and safe to try.

Question 10
