Question 1

what can i do about hairs popping up on my breasts?

Accepted Answer

Hair: Some people are more likely to experience this than others... It may be due to a family trait or an excess of testosterone in your body... This can be treated with plucking, waxing, if severe there is the option of electrolysis, and there are some cremes that work for a short period of time.

Question 2

i m 18 now . i had some white hair popping out when i was 13. what cause it?

Accepted Answer

White hair areas.: White hair is hereditary. Some young i dividuals present with patches of white hair and that is nothing to worry from a health point of view.

Question 3

i'm a teenager & i'm starting to have grey hairs already. i mean they're just popping up everywhere. is that healthy? what is it caused by?

Accepted Answer

Depends on pattern: Gray hair can be an aberrant thing, meaning it just happens. A few popping up here and there is fine. However, if it's coming up in a specific grouping or pattern, that's a problem. If you're turning wholly gray, you may need to consult with your doc or a derm. A lot may also depend on genetics. If your dad went gray early you may too.

Question 4

found two white hairs.very concerned. i don't want to have a bunch of white hair popping up all over. i'm only 24 years old.what is happening?

Accepted Answer

I wish I know: It most likely is hereditary.  That you come from a family prone to early graying.  Just like some folks are prone to balding.  Other than that, too much worrying may cause it?  It could just be a fluke and it will be a while before you find another one.

Question 5

while brushing my daughters hair i heard a loud pop from her scalp, why did it make a popping noise? she said it didn't hurt her at all.

Accepted Answer

Static electricity: Had to be static electricity discharge. If the hair was dry it can build up a charge and that small arc will make a popping sound. There isnt anything else i can think of that would give a pop. The hair is too flexible so had to be a small shock.  That is my best explanation.

Question 6

how can i tell if its herpes or ingrown hair i have a red bump on the top of my vagina. today i popped it and it was like a popping a black head ?

Accepted Answer

Ingrown hair: You ask a good question and any painful lump or bump on the vagina warrants examination, however this is more likely an infected hair follicle/ingrown hair/folliculitis given that herpes tends to look like a small, clear, fluid filled blister with red patches. hope that helps. Keep the area clean and dry.

Question 7

i have head aches every day and i hear popping in my head and hair is falling out, i get tired sometimes, what does this mean?

Accepted Answer

Need evaluation: Some of your symptoms sounds like hypothyroidism.  You need to see at least your family physician for an evaluation as you may have more then one issue going on.

Question 8

while i was combing my hair, i heard a snap from my arm and my arm experienced a sudden sharp pain. now, my arm does not hurt unless i move it a certain way. however, when i swing my arms when i walk, i feel my elbow popping. is my arm broken?

Accepted Answer

Physical Exam: You should get a full history and physical exam with a  physician. While it is more likely that you have experienced a muscle strain, sprain, or contusion, a full exam is the only way to tell.

Question 9

i have been really sick for almost three years.how can i tell if it is a fungal infectionthat has spread literally all over my body. included also now into my eyes?have white hairs that started popping up on forehead aft. infected yellowish scalp etc?

Accepted Answer

: This is unlikely but something you can find out by listing all your issues with a timeline &amp; taking that list in for an evaluation. If fungus gets in your blood you are likely dead within days. On the body surface it would have physical findings. Yeast is normal in your gut. You may have a chronic illness but the what &amp; why requires an evaluation &amp; likely testing.

Question 10

i have a whitehead just inside my right nostril. i suspect it's a zit over a nose hair follicle. i've l googled and i'm scared popping it will kill me?

Accepted Answer

Pimple: I am not aware of any deaths caused by popping pimples in your nose.  The internet is full of bad medical advice.  We typically suggest you don't squeeze pimples because of the trauma and scarring that can occur.  However, realising how painful these can be, do what you need to do.  I trust San Rafael is wonderful used to live there as a youth.
