nail

Avatar f tn It is really good it helped me with my bad nail bitting habits. It taste nasty therefore when you try to bite your nails you quickly retract. At the same time it gives your nails a clear glossy look. Try it.
Avatar f tn It could just be a cut/sore from him being rough, so just try to keep the area clean, rinsing the area with water(don't douche). Keep an eye on the area to watch for infection or any changes, and it should heal in about a couple weeks. If the area does not heal or gets worse, make an appointment with your doctor.

Avatar n tn 3) I had a CONDOM on and she had her period early because I noticed blood on the condom when I pulled out to clean up, and I put her blood on my finger and I tend to bite my nails and skin, could her blood go into my finger? Thanks, Please Answer Each Question!
Avatar f tn I'm a 14 yr old girl with a great life most of the time, not much drama and i do well at school with stress only during the really big tests so i dont understand why i bite my nails and do so till they bleed. I've bitten my nails since i was little and recently I have been trying everything i can think of to stop. The one main thing I've figured out is this addiction to biting my nails overcomes my willpower.
Avatar m tn 1) I rubbed her P***Y or vagina not sure which word is appropriate here, with 3 fingers. I also tend to bite my fingers and bite my skin but I dont recall anything bleeding on my finger. Is there any risk for HIV, STD's if my her vaginal fluid entered my finger pores or nails as I do bite on my fingers? 2) She performed oral on me in the car, I did cum in her mouth. It probably took 2-3 minutes, it was quick and uncomfortable as you can imagine sitting and driving.
Avatar n tn I looked down and I had a red spot on a fiber of the glove. I bite my nails and my cuticles until they bleed sometimes, when this red spot was noticed my fingers were not awful and not bleeding whatsoever. The doctor said it was okay and the HIV/AIDS hotline said it was not a risk. I'm so afraid that when I took the glove off that my finger with a bite mark on it could have gotten blood or whatever it was in it.
1962512 tn?1325717748 t matter whether you are grinding the nails or cutting the nails, the easiest way I know of to keep from cutting the quick is to make the quick more visible before you start whatever you're going to do. The best and easiest way to make the quick more visible is to soak the dog's feet in warm water for 5 or 10 minutes before you begin. Soaking in water makes the nails translucent so you can see through them. This works even with black nails.
Avatar f tn You want to bite more than you want pretty nails. When you want pretty nail more than you want to bite, you'll stop. This sounds simple and trite and silly, but it isn't. It's born of experience. When you want to stop, you will. Nail biting isn't fatal, or really even dangerous. No one needs to stop you before you decide to stop yourself, because pretty nails aren't really important to anyone except your own self.
Avatar f tn I do the same thing mon. I don't ever bite my nails, but I bite the cuticles. I have tried to stop a countless number of times. I came to the conclusion after analyzing what reward the habit gave me (since our brain probably does things to its benefits) that its a security habit. The pain given keeps my mind occupied, and provides comfort (much like kids who carry around a blanket with them all the time). The only real way to stop is to be conscious of what you're doing.
Avatar m tn That night i did not have a wound ( no blood) but i have bitted my nails and the skin. Is it possible for HIV to be transmitted if her body liquids were on my fingers and bitted nails?
8793709 tn?1409594060 but its only like that fir the first couple of days..eventually you learn to hold the baby and do things one handed..i used to breastfeed walking around..so dont worry..its all natural to us..
13071689 tn?1456196798 Does most pregnant women bite their nails... I use to bite my nails when i was around 6 or 7 years old. No w that im 6 weeks pregnant, i started biting them again. I just dont understand why all of a sudden?
Avatar f tn The nails are still fused with the skin on her fingers. That's why they make the little baby gloves.
Avatar f tn I bite my nails for the same reasons as you mentioned, and I've been doing it since I was two (I'm 19 now). Although my nails aren't as short as yours, I also bite the skin around the nails, many times to the point of bleeding, and I've even lost a nail twice to infection. However, there have been two times that I stopped biting completely: when I got fake nails put on, and when I went to a counselor. There are nails you can get that don't damage your real ones...
Avatar n tn cutting the nails more often very close to the quick... takes a while to do... you will actually start to see this little grayish white dot in the middle of the nail before you hit the quick. hope this helped!
Avatar f tn I have bitten my nails for almost 25 years, since I was 6. I recently got myself to stop and it's been a good 2 months now since I've bitten them at all and I can honestly say I can't remember the last time I've had the urge to bite them. I probably had a moderate problem (bit my nails where they were always halfway down the nail bed but def more than a sliver of nail left). All I did was paint my nails with a nail strengthening clear coat EVERYDAY.
Avatar f tn questions I see some of you mommies say to bring nail clippers, do you cut the babies nails when theyre just born?
Avatar f tn I had a bad habit of biting my nails to but when i became pregnant they were way to thick to bite and hurt my teeth when i bite them, so now they have a chance to grow lol
Avatar n tn I use to bite my nails untill I started to get what I guess was puss pocket under my nails and I stopped biting my nails but contineud to bite around my finger nails. Just one side of my thumb is now swollen, warm to the touche, and hurts to even move it. My arm and my hand is starting to hurt as well. What is the problem?
Avatar f tn When I finally stopped doing that I began to pick at the skin around my fingers and bite the inside of my mouth. I cant seem to ever relax. When I try not to pick at my fingers I get a really anxious feeling as if Im about to jump out of my skin. Even just sitting in school or watching tv I am not able to sit still and relax. What is wrong with me? Why cant I relax?
Avatar m tn t have hiv/AIDS and that she gets screened - she was very professional in general and had alcohol at the end for me to clean with I understand that there is no reason to worry or get tested for the protected oral and protected vaginal sex as the condom was in tact. My main concern is the exposure to her blood and my exposed flesh on my finger. I'm not sure if while touching her vagina, if her blood went onto my finger. Should I be worried about any STDs and get tested?
Avatar m tn 23 of 2009 i slept with a prostitute with a condom it did not break and mutual masterbation on aug20th i had received oral sex with a condom and then vaginal sex with a condom it did not break mutual masterbation on sept 18 i went to a massage place and got a massage and she gave me a hand job and i rubed her clitoris after all this i realized what a stupid thing i was doing when on sept25 i got a sorethroat pus on my tonsils it scared me to death.
Avatar f tn t even grow past the tip of my finger. I always keep them super short. I also bite off the skin around my nails, and try to tear away my cuticles. As you can probably imagine, this does lead to bloody messes on my fingertips. In school, while I'm doing work, I'll bite my nails while I'm writing/reading. Also, I'll start biting my nails during conversations with other people. The point is, whenever I'm in the process of biting my nails/skin, it seems like I can't stop.
1886497 tn?1327714543 ll just chew my fingers instead-terribly attractive! i think some cats just bite their nails as maintenance-Bob only does the back ones. my cats are 100% indoor and we don't clip their nails-is Oreo (great name!!) in indoor cat as well and does he only bite the back ones? Do you clip them for him? I'm not a pro, probably Jade or Opus can address the stress issue better than I-I don't want to give you wrong info and can only go by personal experience. Good luck to you and Oreo!
564710 tn?1217719711 Okay, so I wasn't sure where to post this so.. And I saw one past that was here and I figured this wasas good a place as any. So, I'm 14 years old and my parents yell at me any time I start biting my nails. I've been biting them all my life. But when I bring up the fact that they can buy me things on the market to help control my bad habit, they refuse and say I need to use my will power. Only problem is I'm not a very willful girl.
