Avatar m tn something that looks like someone poked him with a needle so it not the typical cut a razor blade would cause but a poke kind of. anyway, had the wife clean his lip really well and with alcohol etc.... common sense says he is fine as it wasnt something major . also i do clean my razor pretty ok after shaving but a worry is a worry and i cant help it. called his pediatritionist clinic today and asked i can come in to make sure his antibodies are good from back when he completed the vaccine..
Avatar f tn For transmission, plenty of infectious fluid is needed to be exchanged inside the body, for which, a safety razor does not qualify. However, for personal hygiene, and to prevent other contageous infections, it is always better to avoid anybody else's kits. You may use a different brand having different color to eliminate the risk of picking up the wrong razor inadvertently.
Avatar f tn You are most likely having an allergic reaction to whatever shaving cream or lotion you are applying to your legs, assuming you are using a safety razor. It is also possible that you do have extra-sensitive skin and the skin response is to mechanical irritation from the shaving device you are using. You might want to switch to a “non-allergenic” shaving cream/lotion product. On the mechanical side be sure to avoid using any razor that is not ultra-sharp.
Avatar m tn Hi-I used a (used) safety razor at a golf course and cut myself. 10 Days later I had throbbing voluntary muscles throughout my body and a sinus issues. The sinus issue cleard up in two weeks, but the throbbing eased into a dull ache-particularly in my right biceps that I've had for 6 months, I was tested thoroughly for HVC (multiple antibody, PCR Qual) and HVB. All negative. My hepatologist has referred me to a neurologist saying the razor was just a coincidence.
865151 tn?1239246673 If he is hitting you, regardless of his mental state, you need to find safety, you don't want to be a statistic. There are women's shelters and safe houses. If you feel in danger call 911, tell them about his mental state, there are usually special units to deal with psychiatric issues, but he definitely needs help. You do as well, so that you can find your own safety. Being hit is not okay.
Avatar m tn Hi, I've been reading a lot online but cannot find anything closely related to the problem I'm experience.. I'm really hoping someone can help me figure out what's going on. Almost every time after I have (unprotected) sex with my girfriend, I get small red bumps (~20-30) on my penis--mostly along the front and sides and lower foreskin-- as well as sometimes a few near my stomach and pubic hair. This has happened maybe 10 times.
Avatar f tn Turns out it was razor bumps but since i was picking at them n tryin to pop them i got them infected so they gave me some antibiotic but i did get some blood drawn for safety reasons n will know the results on those by next week
Avatar f tn Eight weeks ago I got a weird head sensation - first came electrical sounds like the crackling of a faulty circuit, followed by a sensation of the inside of my head rising up towards top of head (just once), followed by brief dizziness. I don't think the whole experience lasted more than a minute. I felt okay afterwards. Two weeks later I was still wondering what had happened so I discussed with my GP who was concerned and she referred me to a neurologist.
Avatar m tn A razor blade, not an electric razor within an hour prior? Yes, that ought to greatly up the risk from oral as a safety blade may have made one or more minute nicks in your skin (not enough to hurt or visibly bleed, but, leaving enough wounding for infected saliva to breach the skin barrier). Eight weeks does sound long enough though (especially if that's the recommended period).
Avatar m tn I am sexually inactive and only use my anus for defecation, I do, however, shave the area regularly with a manual disposable razor. Whenever I have a bowel movement, I use Huggies with shea butter to wipe the area clean. Finally, when I shower daily, I regularly wash the area with warm water and Dove soap.
Avatar n tn m just being my usual paranoid self but this is really eating me up alive. I had forgotten my shaving razor when I stayed at a hotel over 3 weekends ago. The hotel staff brought over a disposable one upon my request. Although not packaged (or sealed), the razor appeared to be new and I went ahead used it. I cut very easily when shaving and there was definitely blood from me in this instance.
Avatar m tn Well - yopu have to lose weight. That is a must. 10 units of Humalog before meals is high but isn't exceptionally high. What is your glucose reading two hours later? What kind of meal are you eating?
Avatar n tn Razors are somewhat a needle-like object, and it is inevitable that during shaving blood will get onto the razor. Someone who shaves, using a used razor (of someone who is HIV positive), may get cuts while they are shaving that may possibly allow the virus a way to enter into the body. It's probably unlikely, in the first place, that the virus would even survive on a razor... but there is a bit of risk, so why even have that risk when it can be completely avoided?
Avatar m tn appx 11 weeks ago I had a few drinks and used a used safety razor in the shower at a massage parlor (all women giving massages). I cut my neck shaving. At 8 days my biceps and triceps began aging-my thighs slightly too. My sinuses became inflamed and cleared up in abt three weeks. My muscles have improved but now at 10 weeks still are a bit weak. . I have had a temperature slighly below normal (98.0) for a while now. I had an HIV rapit test @ 6.5 and again at 9 weeks. Both were negative.
Avatar m tn I think that if you are that concerned about the chances that you may catch HCV then you should talk to your friend about your fears. Being honest about our care/responsibility in living around other 's and their safety when we have a disease is important. More than likely you should not be able to get hep C unless it is blood to blood . I gave birth to my children and did not know I had HCV and neither have contracted HCV or the father in the 30 years of having it.
Avatar n tn Like all other items of personal use like tooth brush, safety razor and beard trimmer, I would limit the use of MY sex toys (If I ever intended to use any) to myself only. Although the risk is very negligible as rightly pointed out by alienshadow, but why to that that even?
Avatar m tn It is this that triggered my concern of reinfection, even though of what I know now of slow absorption of Pencillin G 2.4 million units IM injection which takes more than a week being effective and covering that intimate event. Your view?
12861759 tn?1432917955 I am currently using Lantus and Novolog. Drs. advice is to start with 40 units of Lantus and up it 2 units every third day until I get a fasting BG of less then 130. Is it more important to get to my Lantus goal on a consistant basis before I try to adjust my Novolog?
Avatar f tn OMG....Me either!....Ok so is the government going to fix it? Oh I forgot. If the President tries, he'll get opposition on where the money is going to come from and it'll get SQUASHED in the house. So maybe these reactors will just stay "in need of better safety" and we can hope and pray that nothing makes them explode. Forget the people that are in Arms way.........
Avatar f tn I had this problem last summer before I found out I was expecting. I promise I feel your pain. I had em like 4 different times. 2 under one, 2 under the other. I had to stop shaving so often. & make sure your razor is clean. I also use witch hazel under my arms after I shave before I put on deoderant. If you need relief, use a hot towel to bring it to a head. Then burn tha tip of a safety pin or a needle and stick it in that middle. You will need assistance because it hurts like hell.
Avatar f tn First with regards to your 2008 response to Acne Vulgaris, can the 2.5% Benzoyl Peroxide facial cleanser, beta hydroxy acid, or the Salicylic acid be use on my legs? I have these symptoms on the tops of my thighs and they are starting to cause mild pain when I get "goose bumps" in the O.R. at work.
Avatar m tn Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) units and their accessories that require a prescription" This is for the safety of consumers. I agree with JJ that contacting your local stroke association is a great place to start to help legally source and fund this device.

Avatar f tn Ok my 4 year old is stealing everything in sight dispite lectures time out and loss of toys over this. The 18 month old climbs beautifully but isn't quite walking yet. This culminated in the older boy stealing daddy's razor today during bath time and shaving his face chest and butt defore I catch on because I go in to tell him he hastoo much water.
484470 tn?1226541095 As many as nine out of ten of these accidents could have been prevented by following simple household safety measures. Remember that babies can get into trouble faster than you can imagine. If there's a dangerous spot in the house, a baby will surely find it. Before your baby begins to crawl, there are some household precautions you should take to safeguard your little one.
Avatar f tn t know about Neupogen but 40,000 units of Procrit originally raised my counts to get me out of the danger zone but never raised my Hgb much. Hgb bounced from 8.4 to 9.3 for highest count for the last 9 months of Procrit. Maybe it doesn't work as well for everyone. It got me thru treatment though.
