Nothing to fool with: An ulcer on eyelid needs to be evaluated.  Herpes simplex, virus that causes cold sores, is not very common on the eyelid but if there can lead to an infection of the cornea called keratitis.

Accepted Answer

Toe nail growth: Average toenail growth
if you find yourself clipping your toenails less frequently than your fingernails, there's a reason--toenails grow a lot slower than fingernails, says kids health. If you lose a toenail, it takes between 12 and 18 months for a new one to grow back out. Toenails grow at a rate of one-third to one-half of the rate of fingernails, or around 1 millimeter each month.

Question 9

Accepted Answer

Allergy drops: If it truly is an allergic reaction, then Patanol (olopatadine) or another anti-histamine eye drop would help.

Question 10

i had pink eye and was put on ointment treatment until last friday.  have congested nasal passages and drainage.  it is sunday evening & have sore throat with a couple of small white spots. no fever.

Accepted Answer

I would get things: Checked, the spots mat be pockets of infection.  I would request a nasal steroid.  Use this at night, post nasal drip becomes antiinflammatory, helping throat, helping allergies, less hand to face, less contraction of viruses which can lead to bacterial infection.  You may need antibiotics though; gargle with warm salt water every couple hours and use aleve or other medicine 4 discomfort.
