Question 1

i might of swallowed a small amount of super glue as it could of been on the tape when i bit it off the tape roll will i be ok?

Accepted Answer

Likely OK: The amount of glue you describe seems tiny and I doubt it will have any effect at all.  If you feel fine, I wouldn't worry about it. If you have any irritative symptoms, burning in throat, esophagus/chest, stomach; any chest or abdominal pain; nausea or vomiting, I would call Poison Control and ask for their guidance. I think you will be fine. Good wishes:)

Question 5

every morning i wake up eyes glued by mucous and swollen tonsils. i find it hard to swallow and no fever. then better again.can it be spring season?

Accepted Answer

Many things: Allergies possibly combined with eyelid infection: blepharitis (infection of eye lashes and eyelids) or meibomianitis (infection of ducts on eyelids).  You should see your doctor.

Question 6

im currently waiting to be referred to ent.i am having recurrent ear infections& can hear/feel fluid in ears that whooshes when i bend over/shake head/yawn/swallow.as far as i can tell i have no hearing loss.does this sound like glue ear?

Accepted Answer

Ear exam: This symptom is also seen with ear wax accumulating in the ear canal and may be touching the ear drum. A n ear drum infection is usually accompanied by an ear ache. Your PCP can diagnose either of these conditions. For fluid in the middle ear, an ENT is preferred,however.

Question 7

what are the effects of accidentally eating super glue?

Accepted Answer

Usually nothing: Other than inconvenience from tissues glued together. Cyanoacrylates are commonly-used surgical adhesives that solidify rapidly upon contact with water (tissues are mostly water). If it truly is an accident the amounts are small and the adhesive would harden nearly immediately and pass through the GI tract without concern! large amounts intentionally ingested might be a different matter.

Question 8

is it possible for you to use super glue too glue cap back on tooth?

Accepted Answer

Super glue: This would be ill-advised and extremely dangerous.
Return to your dentist and have the tooth and crown checked to find out why it came off. Crowns are not supposed to fall off. There may be a problem with the tooth and/or the crown.

Question 9

how to get dried up super glue off my fingers? i did what i could to wash it off, but it is still sticky and flaky.

Accepted Answer

Acetone: They don't call it superglue for no reason.Removal can be difficult. Leaving it alone and letting it peal off over time is one of the simplest ways to approach the problem. However, if you need it off, nail polish remover with acetone or standard shop acetone can get it off.It can evaporate quickly so working with it in a saturated pad is sometimes better than direct contact with the liquid.

Question 10

how to heal scabs--super glue?

Accepted Answer

No, not super glue..: Scabs are part of the healing process and should be left to fall off on their own.
