5 days ago my friend pierced my left ear lobe with an earring we got at Wal-Mart, the second day I had to take it out for a few hours due to family reasons then I put it back in and seemed like I had to re-pierce it. Well I dont think its infected because Ive researched it and I have been cleaning it 3 times a day. But now the back of my ear hurts, and just the back. I managed to loosen the back to see if that is any better.
My questions:
1. How long will my piercing feel sore?
2. Do I have to take my piercing out to clean it? Because its hard to get off.
3. In the mornings when I turn it I hear a small tearing noise (almost like im freeing skin around the earring) is this normal?
4. Can I leave my new piercing in because I dont like taking it out?
Thanks
New ear lobe piercing, normal pain?
What happened is you took a fresh piercing out. It is an open wound and without the earring preventing it from healing back together, it started to close. When you put the earring back in, technically you did have to repierce it.
1. Its going to be sore for a while considering you 1. did it yourself improperly and 2. you technically repierced it
2. You don't take them out to clean them, although if I were you, I would take it out, let it heal and have it professionally done.
3. You're probably hearing little crusties crunching, clean it before you turn it.
4. You shouldn't have taken it out to start out with. You're supposed to leave the jewelry in place for at least 6 weeks before changing or removing the jewelry.
You're biggest problem was doing it yourself. Trial and error, live and learn I guess. Next time you want a piercing, please have it done professionally.
Reply:You could've just gone to a body piercing shop to get it done, but nooo.. you just had to pierce it with your earring didnt you? Now deal with it. If it gets infected, lets throw a party. :D
Reply:ok... yes pain is very normal, i got a second hole pierced and had to take it out because i could bear the pain.
when you clean it just simply get it wet with the solution and twist it, removing it will cause infection.
the tearing noise is completely normal, it is simply fluids hardening to the jewlery that noise will go away after about a week
and yes leave it in, the more often you remove it, the more you will let it see the air which could have many things you dont want to get inside it
hope this helps, i pierced my friends ear a few years ago and it worked great, i used a safety pin tho
Reply:You probably should have gotten it pierced at a licensed facility; it's much safer. I got mine pierced at Icing, a little accessory store in my local mall, and that's what im basing my answers off of.
Your piercing will probably be sore for a couple of weeks. To clean it, the boutique i went to had special cleaning solution. You can probably call around and ask for the best deal on that. DON'T take your earring out. That'll just hurt more. Take a fresh, clean Qtip, dip it into the solution, and swipe around the earring, carefully.
In the mornings, make sure your hands are clean before turning the earring. It is normal to hear that noise, because you ARE freeing skin from your earring. Your ear lobe is getting used to having something foreign in it.
And leave your earring in for a while, at least six weeks. Changing it too early can make it hurt longer, and it's also an infection risk.
Good luck! :)
Reply:No, thats is NOT normal. You really messed up.
Take it out before it gets any worse. Have you EVER had anything pierced before? Your breaking EVERY rule there is about piercing.
A tight back dosent allow for swelling, therefore damages your ear. You DONT take it out...
My god, please just take it out and go freakin claires (which still isnt good but for lobes its better than what you just did). It should NOT be sore. Ever. Perhaps jus a little bit when you sleep on it... but its only because you did a dumb thing. Please do it right next time. You can get that piercing at Claires for about 20$.

What is the most pain you've been in? Physically?
For me....It was when I had a second degree burn from the son on my back. It hurt like hell....probably because the nerve tissue was still alive so i could feel my skin burning from the inside out.
What is the most pain you've been in? Physically?
Now this is an interesting question, because I definitely have a "Most" moment for me. The most pain I've ever been in is when I got run over by a train while I was working for a railroad company, and drug down the track 187 feet, and lost my right leg. I was conscious during the entire event when my back was being skinned raw as I was being drug down the track, legs first, and on my back. Actually, the back skinning felt wonderful, like somebody was scratching my back, compared to the pain of having my right leg crushed under the railroad car's wheels. I also got my left ankle broken and a rib on my right side broken. But from that experience, I can pass on some wonderful advice. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER try to beat a train across the tracks!!! Although my accident happened while I was on foot, working on a train, I can tell you from the pain, and from the experience of being in the locomotive as we hit a car parked against the tracks once, we in the locomotive don't feel a thing!! Truly!! You, on the other hand, will feel hell like you could never imagine, and death would be an acceptable alternative to staying alive whilst being drug down the track on your back and watching your leg get torn off. The bone is truly white!! And the muscle tissue and blood is a BEAUTIFUL crimson red, but the show ain't worth the pain or disability. Please approach railroad tracks with the UTMOST caution. We truly have no desire to hurt or kill you, but sometimes people present us with no alternative. Drive with care. God Bless you.

What could calcification on my rib bone mean? It was found in xray.?
I fell the other day a hit my rib cage badly. Even though I had alot of pain, I didn't have any marks or bruising on my skin where I fell. After a couple of days of pain, I decided to go to the Dr. She ordered an xray. I called and spoke with her today and she said that they did not see any broken ribs on the xray. However, she did say that they were sending it out to radiology for a second look because there were darkened areas on the ribs (both..not just the side I fell on) She called it calcification. What could this be!!?? I am freaking out right now! Please what are all the possibilities?! I am an otherwise healthy 35 year old. Thanks
What could calcification on my rib bone mean? It was found in xray.?
It's usually nothing. Try not to worry about it.
Calcification is a process in which a mineral called calcium builds up in body tissue, causing the tissue to harden. This can be a normal or abnormal process.
Ninety-nine percent (99%) of calcium entering the body is deposited in bones and teeth. The remaining 1% of calcium is dissolved in the blood.
When a disorder affects the balance between calcium and other minerals or chemicals in the body, calcium can be deposited in other parts of the body, such as arteries, kidneys, lungs, and brain. Calcium deposits in these parts of the body can cause problems with how these blood vessels and organs work.

Will It Heal?
Hi,
I had a baby 41/2 months ago...
I had a second degree tear and a first degree tear and a graze.
The midwife said I tore because he was face up and he also came too fast so she didn't have time to help the skin streatch.
My scar still hurts sometimes is this normal?
Does it mean I'll tear with my next baby too?
Thanking you kindly!
Will It Heal?
It should get better, but if not, I would ask your midwife. Some people don't get stitched up right and it causes problems and pain. It doesn't necessarily mean you will tear with your next baby. I had a bad 2nd degree tear with my first and she stitched for for about 30 mintues. My 2nd one, I had 12 stitches. My 3rd one (was also 1 1/2 pounds larger than my first 2), I only had 2 stitches.
Reply:yahoo answers is not a doctor. you should ask one, though.
Reply:yes it will heal and when you tear that bad it will be sore for a while. that does not mean you will tear next time. i tore very bad with my first and hardly any with my second and third. infact it was such a small tear that they didn't have to sew it up and it took less time to recover.
Reply:it is a possibility that you can tear with you next baby. but every birth is different and next time it may go slower and they may be able to help the skin stretch
Reply:you will heal and be ok
Reply:I had second degree tears with my first child %26amp; 6 stiches - and my scar (or bump as I referred to it) hurt for about 6 months... and on occasion when I'd squat down to play with my daughter. It will eventually heal;o) My second daughter arrived a mere 14 1/2 months later and I did not tear at all with her... so I am an example that you are not destined to tear with your next child;o)
Reply:I'm not sure if you'll tear again, they're always the possibility that you will. Having said that, I tore the inside of me (I'm not completely positive how that happened exactly). But I also tore myself to the side. You have to take into consideration that it's a sensitive area that the baby is coming out of and any damage like that is going to take a long time to heal. My son is five months old and I'm still in pain sometimes.
Reply:I had a second degree tear and an episotomy with my first child. I had pain (while sitting mostly) for months after wards. This time around I found a better doctor, and my son was 2 pounds heavier than my daughter and I didn't tear at all and no episotomy. Of course, things can be different for different women, but one thing that helps prevent tearing is to massage your perineum starting at week 34.
Reply:I had a 2nd degree tear when my son was born 7 months ago. It was just in the last month or 1 1/2 months that it stopped hurting. Hopefully you will be completely healed soon! There's not really any way of telling in advance whether you'll tear with your next baby. I worry about that sometimes - it sure isn't pleasant! I've heard that taking vitamin C through your pregnacy might help prevent tearing by helping your skin stretch.

Top layer colour?
I have naturally dark brown hair, fair pale skin and blue eyes...I want to colour my hair (done by a professional lol) so the top layer is a honey, golden brown (or very, very dark blonde) and let my natural colour show underneath the top layer... 2 things : first, can anyone help me find a pic of this style? I've searched loads on here but haven't come up with much, second, is this even achievable? can the stylist get my dark brown hair to this colour? (using bleach I guess) but I have alot of natural red undertones, can this be done without turning my hair orange? thanks for any help.
p.s. if you have similar hair to this and would like to share a pic, that would be great.
Top layer colour?
yess!
thats what i have.
i know exactly what you mean.
and yess, i know how to find a pic of it.
ashley tisdale has that kind of hair.
but i think she has it lighter than you want it.
but the bottom is dark, [her natural color] and the top is light. [highlights.]
i have that too.
its called partial highlights.
and no, it wont turn your hair orange.
is what they do is the parts that you want highlighted, they paint a hair bleacher on it, then they dry that so that those pieces no longer have your natural color.
then put the toner of the color you want, and wa-la!
you have your partial highlights!
thats what it is called, i had to ask my hair stylist about that.
and since she is a pro stylist, i would say she knows what she is talking about.
it can get pretty pricey though.
any where from $69-$139
Reply:you are right it is really hard tro finf a pic i think what you should do though if you want atop layer blond without looking red is dye all your hair blonde then dye the under layers dark again also for pics try looking in magizenes

Pill...period no pill no period what would you do?
ok i had my son a year ago and it took me 8 months to get a period and that was going on the pill. so the pill made it so i got a period on my second pack of pills right at the end my fiance and i decided to get off the pill and try again so my son was almost 10 months. but when i got off the pill i havent gotten a period. its been 4 months since i had a normal period. we really want to have another baby. i have all signs of ovulating but just no period. now ive been having cramps everytime my period is due and the skin around my stomach is sore to the touch but all ive been getting is neg tests and im not growing. its not off to one side either its like period cramps right in the middle under the belly button. ive been feeling really nauseated and tired and sore back and discharge all the signs i would be pregnant but im not getting bigger or a positive. but i really want another child. so should i go on the pill to get a period and not get pregnant or should i stay off and keep...
Pill...period no pill no period what would you do?
You should really go and see your doctor. It is possible you are having some hormone problems. I had a similar situation years ago before our daughter was born. Absence of periods should be checked out unless you are of menopause age.
As for the pill question, birth control pills suppress ovulation. If you want children, taking them isn't a good idea. Stay off the pill and see your doctor.

Tanning? only once~?
ok I looked up tanning beds on yahoo image and the second pic was of a HORRIBLE(not enough to describe it) burned hand~ and then the article had pics that made my knees shake~
so I was wondering~ how bad would it be if I only try tanning once and once only~
a tanning bed? and um would I get skin cancer? plz help!
Tanning? only once~?
Even once increases your chance of getting skin cancer. 1 in 4 people will get skin cancer in their life times. Pretty scary huh?
In tanning beds the UV rays release Endorphins which seep into your body which makes you addicted to them. One time might not seem like much, but then you will want to go again and again and again. Don't go. I have fair skin but i use jergans and it makes me have a nice glow and it's not orangey or streaky.
Reply:Well going to a tanning bed once wouldnt give you much color, not enough to notice it anyway....I wouldnt recommend going at all.
Instead, try a sunless tanner.
Reply:take it off
Reply:dude, once is harmless. the person who works at the tanning place will no way let you go for that long.
Reply:Well, it wouldn't be an entirely isolated event because it will add to all over UV exposure in your life. It's not worth it.. don't do it.
Reply:DON'T TRY IT... if you even do one you will get addicted.. so DO NOT TRY IT!!!
Reply:I don't think you get skin cancer from going once. My sister goes all the time and her skin is fine. But, I'm not an expert.
Reply:ok... my mom owns a spa they do spray tans and it matches up with your skin tone and you cant get burned... i wouldnt suggest tanning beds my sister went and she was total burnt and then her doctor said not to do it again cuz it can ruin your skin... so i would go with spray tans from a salon/spa... and with spray tans you can go like 2 times a week... you dont put any make up or mostirizes on the day of the tan or the night before
i hope i helped =]
Reply:Tanning one time would not be worth the time or money. Tanning takes time to develop and if you end up going to a tanning salon, make sure to start out with a very short time 5-8 min especially if you go late in the day - the beds will be hot. Tan every other day for about 2 weeks and then increase your time 1-2 minutes every other session. Tanning beds can be very safe if done correctly and sensibly. If you turn pink, do not go back for at least 48 hours, and decrease your time a little. A good tanning salon will not let you overdo it due to the high cost of tanning salon insurance. Ask a lot of questions, and make sure you let the salon know if you are taking any photosensitive drugs as you can burn.
Good luck and do not be scared.
Reply:The tanning bed has a lot of IR and UVA rays those are bad or the skin so I recommend tanning lotions, aveeno has a good one that let you choose the level of tanning, and wont harm your skin
Reply:no you wouldnt only if you do it in the sun and do it sparingly because if tanning was deadly than hollywood would be gone. if you are that scared get a spray on tan!
Reply:You are not going to get cancer from one visit.
It is possible to burn just depends on your skin and the length of time you lay. I tan myself indoors and out it is your choice.
Take a look at the link. It's your choice in who and what you want to believe!
Reply:Using a tanning bed once is very harmless. Although I would have to admitt there very relaxing and you'll most likely get hooked (I did!) But using it more than a couple of times does put you at risk of developing skin cancer. I've been tanning since I was 14. And dont have it yet but whos to say I will develop it later in life. Plus you must check out the local tanning place find one that is very sanitary and trusty. And if they dont provide you with a baking timer bring one your self and set it! Good Luk my TANNING friend!!!
Reply:tanning only once won't tan you... burning happens from over expossure ( people in a hurry to tan) you should start at 5 minutes every other day (if you are fair skin and burn) after a week try it for 6 minutes every day.. if you tan easilly start at 6 minutes every day and gradualy work your way up every other day to keep the tan...(never tan more often than 24 hours)

Tanning takes time to develop and if you end up going to a tanning salon, make sure to start out with a very short time 5-8 min especially if you go late in the day - the beds will be hot. Tan every other day for about 2 weeks and then increase your time 1-2 minutes every other session. Tanning beds can be very safe if done correctly and sensibly. If you turn pink, do not go back for at least 48 hours, and decrease your time a little. A good tanning salon will not let you overdo it due to the high cost of tanning salon insurance. Ask a lot of questions, and make sure you let the salon know if you are taking any photosensitive drugs as you can burn.
Good luck and do not be scared.
Reply:The tanning bed has a lot of IR and UVA rays those are bad or the skin so I recommend tanning lotions, aveeno has a good one that let you choose the level of tanning, and wont harm your skin
Reply:no you wouldnt only if you do it in the sun and do it sparingly because if tanning was deadly than hollywood would be gone. if you are that scared get a spray on tan!
Reply:You are not going to get cancer from one visit.
It is possible to burn just depends on your skin and the length of time you lay. I tan myself indoors and out it is your choice.
Take a look at the link. It's your choice in who and what you want to believe!
Reply:Using a tanning bed once is very harmless. Although I would have to admitt there very relaxing and you'll most likely get hooked (I did!) But using it more than a couple of times does put you at risk of developing skin cancer. I've been tanning since I was 14. And dont have it yet but whos to say I will develop it later in life. Plus you must check out the local tanning place find one that is very sanitary and trusty. And if they dont provide you with a baking timer bring one your self and set it! Good Luk my TANNING friend!!!
Reply:tanning only once won't tan you... burning happens from over expossure ( people in a hurry to tan) you should start at 5 minutes every other day (if you are fair skin and burn) after a week try it for 6 minutes every day.. if you tan easilly start at 6 minutes every day and gradualy work your way up every other day to keep the tan...(never tan more often than 24 hours)
