Bridget asked:


I recently had my annual wit my OB. I told my Dr. that I had skin tags that appeard bout 2 mo. ago. She told me that they wer vanereal warts! I was shocked, she told me they could use an acid or laser them off but i can never get rid of it? Also tolm me it was an STD. Still stunned & confused she said she would give me some info then came back wit a lil pamphlet that said HPV. I read & started feelin embarrased & ashamed. Came hm & started researchin online as I sobbed becuz I have never had an STD.

I hope this virus goes away, i’m a pretty healthy girl, no medical conditions other then glasses and I diet & exercise regularly.

So my question is…Is there any way they could’ve misdiagnosed me? I also had my first acid treatment (which burned quite bad) and the Dr. just kinda sent me off…told me to leave it on 4 an hr & then sit in warm water. Didn’t even ask me if I had questions…so basically I’m researching everything on my own. Please help… what should I do?
No I thought I was goin 2 get them laserd off, at least thats wut i set up my appt up for & wen i got ther she puts the acid on instead. I haven’t recd. my pap results…they told me it takes up to 2 wks. I should kno by nxt wk..i hope everything turns out ok. I chose 2 get them removed becuz I am uncomfortable since they are in my anus & bleed sumtimes. I read that they can spread like that as well. Since my Dr. put the acid they are white..they are in groups as well. They kind of look similar to the link i have attached

Somebody(s) just had the following question removed again. Wonder why they think the 11 people who answered don’t count for anything?

**Are Americans completely complicit in Israel’s war crimes?**

Americans who watched ABC Nightly News last night saw an extended piece on Israel’s use of US-supplied white phosphorus bombs against the civilian population. It included the screams of a 9-year-old boy in the hospital whose wounds were still burning his skin after hours of treatment.

Any parent, or human being for that matter, who wasn’t horrified by scene that is literally a sociopath (no conscience and unable to feel empathy), which psychologists tell us make up a frighteningly large percentage of the population.

I’m tired of the bogus excuses people are giving for Israel’s war crimes in Gaza because that is what they are. And the weapons used in these war crimes are given free of charge to Israel by American taxpayers, which makes EVERY American who doesn’t speak up against this evil complicit in it. Period. Just like the German people who made convenient excuses for their Nazi government.

So are Americans are complicit in the atrocities against the Palestinian population?

Btw, the latest issue of The American Conservative magazine has several excellent articles on the topic and can be viewed online at http://www.amconmag.com/

** I WILL NOT BE BULLIED OUT OF A DISCUSSION OF THIS IMPORTANT CURRENT EVENT **

I suggest anyone interested in this discussion post the question also.
Leverage, I condemn ALL war crimes. If you want to ask about Hamas war crimes, you invest the 5 points. This is MY question.
Michael D- there are 2 kinds of ‘uninformed’ imo. One kind results when a person is not given correct or sufficient information and cannot help being uninformed, or more accurately ‘underinformed’ or ‘misinformed’. I think this is the case for many Americans in the case of ‘Israel’ the zionist state. The second kind results when people choose from mental laziness not to avail themselves of readily available information -even if it is sometimes complex or contradictory- and fail to use their natural or God-given mental faculties to study, ponder and make an informed decision about something. Sadly, I think most Americans fall into this category. It is just easier to stay uninformed about an issue than to study it. However, Americans as a group are famous worldwide for acting as if they *know* something to be true or false when in fact they have never taken the time to study the issue. Pitiful, really.
Soybeen- I’m afraid many of us started as the latter. Ignorance is bliss as they say. On another question, some soul’s answer was simply ‘Go Israel!’ as if this is some football game with two roughly equal teams and you choose one for fun. Makes me shudder.

Madelaine asked:


I had my first BHA peel last month (30%), which had little affect on my skin, so my dermatologist decided to up the concentration to 60% this week. I am trying to fade some freckling photodamage that I obtained on my nose and cheeks (not a burn) while hiking last year. I have been reading online that not only are several treatments needed (I knew this), but that the results are only temporary. I use sunscreen religiously. Will my sun freckles reappear once I stop my series of treatments? Also, should I get the treatments every two weeks or monthly for best results? Thanks!!

Ok, normally I wouldn’t ask a question like this online, but I really don’t want to wait any more for my appointment…can’t be seen at the GYN until Wednesday of next week….

I was in a monogamous relationship for nearly 8 years, until Sept. of this year. Since then, I’ve been having protected sex with a “new” partner. On Nov. 5, my partner and I had sort of rough sex which I bled a little after. And ever since then, I’ve been experiencing a lot of vaginal dryness which has now turned into swelling and itching and burning. I tried treating it with OTC yeast infection treatments, and even tried using diaper ointment, but nothing is relieving the pain. Instead of getting any better, it seems to be getting worse. I have done a self “inspection” and there’s no visible cuts, sores, spots or anything abnormal….any ideas or suggestions on how to relieve the symptoms until next week or ideas about what’s causing it????

Oh, and before anyone asks, no I haven’t had sex since then. Maybe TMI, but we tried once about a week ago, but he barely made it past penetration before it hurt too badly and we stopped….
And I’m still keeping the appointment on Wed. next week, but I’m looking for some symptom relief until then, it’s really unbearable. At some points it’s like a 5-6 on a pain scale. HORRIBLE!

Justin asked:


I sometimes get athlete’s foot because my feet sweat and I cannot change my socks every hour of the day. However my athletes foot only occurs in SMALL, RED, CLUSTERED BUMPS on the bottom of my feet. I have looked up pictures online of Atheltes foot and they all are large rashes. My Athlete’s foot looks nothing like these pictures. But I told you that to tell you this. A few times I have had the same red bumps on my penis. I know it can be transmitted by putting your underwearr on. Only at the head of my penis do they occure. They itch for a day or so and it burns like hell when I put Lotrimin fungal treatment on it, but it does clear it up after a few days. I looked up pictures of jock itch and it goes from people’s behinds to the front and is one large rash. I am sexually active and believe I might be mistaking it for herpes. Please dont tell me to go to the doctors because I am scheduling an appointment. I am just looking to see if anyone has had similar experiences

Emma T asked:


I stupidly had unprotected sex with an unknown military girl. We met online and went out on date the next day. After the date, she took me to her military base. In the room, I was very reluctant to make a move because I didn’t have condom on me. However, she invited me to sit with her on the bed. After a few conversation I lost control. Immediately I inserted the penis inside, I started feeling a burning pain at the tip of my penis. within 2mns I ejaculated and quickly pulled out and put on my pant. When I asked her if she had any infection, she denied and later told me she had been seeing a doctor for Pelvic Pain treatment. After I got home, and went into the bathroom, there were a lot of white powder stuff around my penis. On the 7th-day, I started feeling muscle tension on my shoulder, waste, dull whiles the burning pain at the tip of my penis continues OF/ON. I don’t feel any pain when peeing I have been so worried of HIV. The main 2-facts;

The pain at the tip started strongly right after the sex (< a 2mins), it became OF/ON 2-days later

On the 7th Day, I started feeling muscle tension on my shoulder, Dull, Headache etc, the pain at the tip still OF/ON

I am scared, worried. Though I'm thinking about doing the STD test, but HIV scared me so much and i have become so miserable. Any Advice or suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
