Question 2

Not for weight loss: thyroid replacement hormones are no longer acceptable therapy for weight loss unless, in fact, you are hypothyoid; however that is a negligible dose.

Vitamin E creme: It's a chemical burn. Vitamin E creme or Aloe are your best bet. The rash doesn't usually last too long, a few hours.

Question 4

wart

Accepted Answer

How to destroy it...: A dermatologist or some primary care doctors can destroy a plantar wart by freezing it, by cutting off the top of it and freezing the base of it, or by using an electric needle to zap it to death... or even doing surgery on it if it is huge and deep. So, it all depends on how big it is, which part of the foot it's on, what the patient wants to do, and what equipment the doctor has in the office.

Question 5

i am a right hander and my right pec is little bit saggy nd maybe left pec bigger.how to fix it?

Assymetry in pecs: This many be a normal variant. The pec brings the upper arm, humerus, against the side of chest cavity, so, specific exercises for this muscle can be done. Also a spine eval, to rule, out scoliosis should be done.

Question 6

this maybe a silly question but can you rid yourself of having dds?

Accepted Answer

You shouldn't: Taking proper care of your teeth will help you avoid sensitivity, gum disease, pain, and cavities.

Question 7

maybe a little overreacting - but should i worry about fumes etc at salons when i go for hair cuts? hair seems to grow quicker now & needs cutting

Accepted Answer

Toxic fumes are: certainly not good for our health.  If the salon fumes were very dangerous the workers there would be sick. Put your mind at ease and ask them about it.  Everyone de-toxes at a different rate, some better than others.   Celantro and other green leafy vegetables help that process.  Peace and good health.

Question 8

can maple syrup be safely used as lube on my condom?

Accepted Answer

Not a good idea: Water soluble lubricant like surglube, lubafax, aqualube etc are ideal. Maple syrup is very sticky, could lead to infection because germs love sugar. Advice is don't use maple syrup for this purpose.

Question 9

my bp is kind of high. i do exercise daily, like walking or hiking on the weekends regularly. i don't eat salty food either. how to mange it to lower it. thank you?

Accepted Answer

Kind of high?: I need daily BP  taken 3 times daily: morning noon and night for a one week period of time OR have your PCP set you up for ambulatory BP monitoring.

Question 10

can a person catch something from a cat i know this sounds silly, i've had a cat for about six months. he was a found cat. he seems very happy and laid back but seems to have a constant wheeze when he breathes. he's big, maybe even a little overweight. i

Accepted Answer

Not : Not sure with your question. Seems like you and the cat both are having breathing problems. Not sure about the cat's symptoms, but, if you are someone that is not used to having cats around in the past, you could have developed allergy to it, causing your symptoms. This can detected by a simple skin test with an allergist. If you are proven to be allergic, you may want an alternate home for the cat.
