Question 3

my 4 yrs son is rubbing his pennies. how to stop him .please help he can't control it.

Accepted Answer

Set limits: It is normal for a 4 year old boy to explore his penis. We should set limits though. The recommended approach is to explain that he should only touch his penis in private. But if he really can' t stop doing it in public that could be a sign of a problem. In that case, you should consult his pediatrician for a possible referral to a child psychiatrist or neurologist for an evaluation.

Question 6

why is rubbing alcohol good for pain?

Accepted Answer

Topical, right?: I am assuming you mean topically during massage. Rubbing alocohol can do a couple of things to help get a massage deeper into muscles or relax them. First, the temper change and sensation on nerve endings in your skin can help muscles relax. Second, the alcohol acts as a varying lubricant on your skin that changes through out the massage that allows different pressure. Hope this helps!

Question 7

how does rubbing alcohol help a wound?

Accepted Answer

: It actually does not help.  Alcohol will burn and cause damage to the tissues.  You should cover it with a dressing to keep it moist and change it based on the amount.  Remember, you should never put anything into a wound you would not put into your own EYE!!  It may kill bacteria but only temporarily as there are so many bugs around that they will go back into the wound seconds after you use it.
