eczema

Avatar m tn t see much improvement I took a friends advice to use a eczema cream called abido that claims to be a herbal cream (shea butter, sulphur, petroleum jelly and special herbs extracted from a plant found in Ghana). I was using the cream whereever I saw the dry patches, even on his face. I used it for 6-8 weeks almost daily. I stopped using the cream and was only using the Oilatum cream and the emollient. The eczema flared up all over his body, prickly rashes, really bad itchiness.

Avatar m tn after 2 minutes of intercourse i removed the condom (it did not break) and she gave me blow job. 3 days ago i read an article that in Ghana ,governments said they found some condoms that are fake and they had some sort of very small holes that HIV can pass through them. is it true? should i get test ?
Avatar n tn Of these partners, 4 were from South Africa, 1 from Zimbabwe, 1 from France, and one is from Ghana, though all are staying in SA. Many of these men I believe to have frequent safe sex but do not have steady partners. Most encounters included some combination of digital penetration, oral sex, or protected vaginal intercourse. There is one incident of particular concern: In an idiotic drunken moment, I had unprotected vaginal sex with a 25 yr old Ghanaian man, who came inside of me.
Avatar f tn I went to a brothel a couple of weeks ago and had intercourse with a worker from ghana. The sex was protected however we kissed and I think I may have acted cunnilingus. Would I be at risk? Also I spoke to the nhs and they said that the workers are regularly checked. Correspondence would be much appreciated. Thanks.
Avatar f tn Hi am Manuel from Ghana, and i kinda think i'm familiar with hypoglycemia or neuroglycopenia (Brain related condition symptoms) and am sorry you we all feel that way. I think i can be of a little help. Cos ive been through such numerous symptons before even sometimes still do, but know how manage and cope with it. Ive helped a lot of people with conditions above mentioned and even neuropathy etc. Please do you know your blood type? If yes, can you tell me?
Avatar m tn manila. in makati!
Avatar f tn About 2 months ago, I noticed my bathing suit had blood in it. Didn't think much of it because I used to have fibroid tumors. But about a week ago, I have been experiencing bleeding daily, slight headaches, and not much appetite. I have gained about 7 pounds. Can't be pregnant cause have been celebic at least 10 years. I would like to find something I can do myself as a remedy.
Avatar m tn Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin. For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide). Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema.
Avatar n tn Just last week i read about how apple cider vinegar helps in eczema itch relief. I gave it a try and it really works. I diluted the ACV in one part water and one part ACV and applied it with a cotton ball. Let it dry and apply Polisporin to areas that are starting to heal. I know everyone reacts differently but this is the only thing that worked for me for a long time. Im still in the healing stage from the scratching but the itch is gone.
Avatar f tn My 7 month son has eczema and has had a rattling in his breathing which gets worse at night for 4 weeks. The doctor has looked at him and says it's coming fro high up which means there's nothing wrong. However i'm worried it's asthma. My brother had it with eczema as a child so there's a family history. He's got an intolerance to cows milk so he only eats soya. He's had a permanent cold since he was about 2 weeks old.
1440398 tn?1371754390 stef my greatest worry is the mere that fact that in Ghana there are no known liver specialists who know these things. A lot more people around are only into herbal medicines.. drugs which i read over here are not even heard of in Ghana. and if they existed very very expensive.

Avatar m tn In accra airport of Ghana,I was injected for vaccine , after 2 days , I got nettle-rash ,and it has lasted for more than two weeks , now it seems that it is disapearing . I was so worried that the needle is not clean.Can I be infected by HIV ?
Avatar f tn Treatment is with glucocorticoid (a corticosteroid steroid) ointments, creams or lotions. They do not cure eczema, but are highly effective in controlling or suppressing symptoms in most cases. Since Alcortin contains anti-bacterial, anti-fungal as well as steroid medications it would be safe to use this to treat the condition with this. ref:http://en.wikipedia.
Avatar n tn You probably have eczema in the groin area. Their are dozens of posts on this site and others concerning the same symptoms. My whole scrotum turns red and sometime the leg creases. None of the medication the doctors gave me do anything. I do not itch unless it turns really red. But when you read about eczema it usually itches and turns red after you scratch it. I never scratch, but it turns red sometimes within minuets. The area gets so dark in color it looks brown.
