Hot stuff asked:
Sunburn: First aid
Signs and symptoms of sunburn usually appear within a few hours of exposure, bringing pain, redness, swelling and occasional blistering. Because exposure often affects a large area of your skin, sunburn can cause headache, fever and fatigue.
If you have a sunburn:
?1/2 cup (about 120 milliliters) of cornstarch, oatmeal or baking soda and let is sit outside the fridge for 12 hours
? Take a cool bath or shower. Adding the mixed ingredients to your bath water may provide some relief.
?Apply an aloe vera lotion several times a day.
?Leave blisters intact to speed healing and avoid infection. If they burst on their own, apply an antibacterial ointment on the open areas.
?If needed, take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin, others), naproxen (Aleve) or acetaminophen (Tylenol, others). Don’t give children or teenagers aspirin. It may cause Reye’s syndrome, a rare but potentially fatal disease.
Do not use petroleum jelly, butter or other home remedies on your sunburn. They can prevent or delay healing.
If your sunburn begins to blister or if you experience immediate complications, such as rash, itching or fever, see your doctor.

aspirin and tylenol?
sharpie_crayon asked:
I took an aspirin give or take 20 minutes ago for my menstrual cramps.
up until now I wasn’t really getting much relief.
now as I type this it seems as though there is a relief, but I was wondering if it turns out that the aspirin doesn’t relieve them, I could take 2 tylenol?
I usually take 2 tylenol and that does the trick but for some reason I chose an aspirin instead :/
I just didn’t want to have any bad side effects if they were somewhat mixed so I was wondering if I’d have to wait before I took tylenol also.

Zulu Warrior asked:
Anyone whows lifted weights, knows of the pain that you get during lifting. The pain sometimes even makes you not want to continue the workout. Is it OK to take aspirin to ease pain? If I take it once every other day will I expect any long term side effects? Does anyone else take it out there?

Aspirin - Ringing in Ears?
Julian M asked:
I’ve been taking the 500mg Extra Strength Bayer Aspirin.
I normally take between 2-4 of these a day.
I’ve been taking them for about a week, and I read that it would take many dozens of the regular 325mg to cause overdose.
I can safely say that I haven’t taken taken over 8000-10,000mg of aspirin this week.
But after I took one caplet (500mg) today, I felt a ringing in my left ear. I was using the tap in my bathroom, and I thought that the loudness of the water caused it.
I’m not allergic to aspirin, and have no other symptoms.
The ringing has gone away, so I’m just wondering if this is just a mere temporary side-effect, or some kind of overdose.
Thanks.

&rea asked:
Did it work for you?
Are there any side effects; does it dry out your skin?
Also, does it work on clogged pores? (My pores are SO clogged, always, and I’ve tried everything but this technique to make them go away.)
I already know how to make the stuff.

I think I have adenoids?

I cant breath through my nose.(For about two months). i have lots of mucus in my throught.im 12.im scared of this:
Your child: Talk to your child about his/her feelings and provide strong reassurance and support throughout the process. Encourage the idea that the procedure will make him/her healthier. Be with your child as much as possible before and after the surgery. Tell him/her to expect a sore throat after surgery. Reassure your child that the operation does not remove any important parts of the body, and that he/she will not look any different afterward. If your child has a friend who has had this surgery, it may be helpful to talk about it with that friend.
Adults and children: For at least two weeks before any surgery, the patient should refrain from taking aspirin or other medications containing aspirin. (WARNING: Children should never be given aspirin because of the risk of developing Reye’s syndrome).
If the patient or patient’s family has had any problems with anesthesia, the surgeon should be informed. If the patient is taking any other medications, has sickle cell anemia, has a bleeding disorder, is pregnant, has concerns about the transfusion of blood, or has used steroids in the past year, the surgeon should be informed.
A blood test and possibly a urine test may be required prior to surgery.
Generally, after midnight prior to the operation, nothing (chewing gum, mouthwashes, throat lozenges, toothpaste, water) may be taken by mouth. Anything in the stomach may be vomited when anesthesia is induced, and this is dangerous.
When the patient arrives at the hospital or surgery center, the anesthesiologist or nursing staff may meet with the patient and family to review the patient’s history. The patient will then be taken to the operating room and given an anesthetic. Intravenous fluids are usually given during and after surgery.
After the operation, the patient will be taken to the recovery area. Recovery room staff will observe the patient until discharged. Every patient is special, and recovery times vary for each individual. Many patients are released after 2–10 hours. Others are kept overnight. Intensive care may be needed for select cases.
Your ENT specialist will provide you with the details of pre-operative and postoperative care and answer any questions you may have.
After Surgery There are several postoperative symptoms that may arise. These include (but are not limited to) swallowing problems, vomiting, fever, throat pain, and ear pain. Occasionally, bleeding may occur after surgery. If the patient has any bleeding, your surgeon should be notified immediately.
