Why are muslims so thin skinnned?

2010-04-24T04:12:00.000-07:00

A few European papers post a few cartoons and the muslim world is having a fit. Why are muslims so thin skinned? Europe is secular. They have a free press. Why all the drama?

(if you don't know what I am referring too, read.. http://news.google.com/news?hl=en%26amp;ned=us...

And here is the real irony. The cartoons suggest muslims are prone to violence, so to protest the cartoons, muslims are turning to violence.

Why are muslims so thin skinnned?
Obliviously, they are just following their terrorizing, raving nature... being violent (or stormy), making noise, all along lacking in restraint and discipline. That's terrorists for you. They are trying to terrorize the Newspaper people.

The basics of terrorizing is: To frighten with threats or a show of force, or to intimidate/scare. Muslims just put butter on their terror.

They probably would like to kill them over a cartoon. Muslims are so prone to violence... there will not be peace with them... as it seems.
Reply:yes thats ironic (but not a surprise for some reason)
Reply:must be that desert heat.
Reply:yo this really disrespectful for the Muslims....yo u talkin Muslims are terrorist?? look what the U.S is doin..remember when the drop the nuclear bomb on Japan?? how many civilians did they killed, maybe if every year a 9/11 happen from Muslims "which i dont believe they are" wont catch up with the numbers that the U.S killed. Plus what about the KKK?? so when i see that i'm gonna be look at these christian they are terrorist. and when i see Jews killing lil' kids in lebanon and palestine, i'm gonna be like look at the Jews they are terrorist....basically, this is bullshit, u cant judge jews or christians or muslims by a small groups
Reply:Don't they remember the disrespectful cartoons of Chuck Colson when he accepted Christ in 1973? Or how about 40% of the Hollywood movies that portray Christians as nuts and weirdos. Just watched Edward Scissorhands--yep, there's a religious nut! If anyone should get thin-skinned by now it's the Christian.

But I will tell you why Muslims are so thin-skinned, because their god needs someone to fight for him. If Allah were indeed god, what is a few puny cartoons to him? It does not change his rank. No, he needs men to do all the speaking for him because Allah will not speak at all.

To the Christian, all the bad press in the world (and we see it daily) does not change God's nature, His light, His gospel, His Word, His truth, or the prophesied future. And besides, He told us to love our enemies and to pray for those who despitefully use us and say all manner of evil against us falsley. Sometimes I slip on this message board and try to defend God when someone says something disrespectful, but then I think better of it, go on to another post where someone is searching. I try to pray for such people instead, but it isn't easy.

Small skin-colored benign skin lesion?

2010-04-24T04:10:00.000-07:00

I have in the past had a small skin-colored bump, or raised area about the size of an average mole, come up under my eye, like in the soft, thinner skin right below my eyelashes. I went to a skin cancer clinic and he shaved it off. It wasn't anything malignant, but now, about 8 months later, another one is forming in the same general area (about half an inch away from the original site) with a tinier one next to it. I have called the skin cancer clinic to ask what the first one was in the first place, since all I ever got was a good report from pathology. Has anyone had anything like this before? I am in my early 40's and have very fair skin.

Small skin-colored benign skin lesion?
Cholesteatoma is usually in the ear.

It is best to get the original pathology report which you should be able to get. Try to call your doctor first. If they can't give it to you, get the phone number for that pathology lab. They can certainly give it to you (it is your report).

It could be squamous papilloma or skin tag which is benign. Both can recur.

It is still a good idea to have them excised and sent to the Pathology Lab again for diagnosis.

Good luck.
Reply:Cholesteatoma probably in that area.

What is the stuff that you put on scars to make the skin appear better?

2010-04-24T04:09:00.001-07:00

i am sure there is a cream or similar that people can put on scars to improve the appearance. Does anyone know what it is, where I can get it and if it makes very thin skin on scar thicken or improve at all?

What is the stuff that you put on scars to make the skin appear better?
Bio Oil is great but by far the best in my opinion is Glycolic acid, but you have to be really careful with this as it is what is says, ACID. It's fantastic for wrinkles, but if you use it in the summer make sure you wear a really high SPF because it can cause dark patches %26amp; use only as directed, it's fantastic for stretch marks as well.

Reply:Vitamin E oil. You can get it from any health food place or even Wal-Mart or Target. It will help w/ the appearance of your scars. You need to put it on a few times a day. Scars take a while to heal, but this will def. help the appearance of it. It worked for me after my knee surgery.

Good Luck!!!

Can you get ink poisoning from a tattoo on veiny skin? (ex. inner wrist)?

2010-04-24T04:08:00.001-07:00

Is is possible to get ink poisoning from tattoos on areas that have thin skin and veins close to the surface, such as your inner wrist?

Can you get ink poisoning from a tattoo on veiny skin? (ex. inner wrist)?
No; but you may be allergic to what they give you.

It is always possible that you could go into anaphactic shock.

Systemic toxicity could however arise if introvenous injection occurs

If you accidentally spill a blood or semen sample (w/ HIV) in your skin, will you have also an HIV?

2010-04-24T04:08:00.000-07:00

Like working as a nurse or medical technologist, if the blood or semen sample (which is positive of HIV) is spilled on your skin, especially thin skin such as arms or face, will you have a high chance of having one?

If you accidentally spill a blood or semen sample (w/ HIV) in your skin, will you have also an HIV?
Hi there,

There is a theoretical chance of infection, yes. HIV enters the body through open cuts, sores, or breaks in the skin; through mucous membranes, such as those inside the anus or vagina; or through direct injection. If you did not have any open cuts or sores you should be fine. HIV is not an easy virus to catch and it is very fragile: the virus dies upon caontact with air. If you were accidentally pricked with a needle, as can happen in health care settings, then you have more of a cause to be concerned. For those who do happen to find that they are in that situation (accidental needle prick) and are able to get to a health care facility or their doctor within 72 hours, doctors will put that person on PEP treatment. There is no guarantee that PEP will prevent the infection from happening simply because there is no way to determine whether the person had been infected or not nor is there any way to determine that IF they were in fact infected that PEP "cured" it.

There is a "window period" which is the time it takes the body to produce antibodies after HIV infection has begun. For the vast majority of those who will test positive, antibodies to HIV will develop within 4-6 weeks after exposure. Some will take a little longer to develop antibodies. Since PEP starts within 72 hours of possible exposure, antibodies have not had a chance to develop. Regardless, after PEP treatment for a month, doctors will want to retest at 3 months time to confirm diagnosis either HIV+ or HIV-.

Hope this helps.

Cheers.
Reply:yes,high percentage,oh my, u must get help quickly,no joke.
Reply:No. Unless you have an open wound.
Reply:i dont think that if its unbroken skin it will affect you. but if it goes into a sore, open wound, eye, and possibly mouth you will get it. if it in any way gets into your bloodstream you will get it.
Reply:its possible, if one has a cut or wound on the skin - but it is highly unlikely. hospitals are supposed to have policies in place where this kind of accident is reported. so this should be reported to the supervisor.
Reply:if you live in the US, you should notify the superior

in hospitals, they usually have procedures that a person has to go thru, such as taking drugs for prevention for several months, take the hiv test after a few months, because it takes time for the virus to develop in the body, etc

it is possible that the person can get infected
Reply:HIV can be transmitted by blood/ semen but it must come into contact with the blood in your body. It can NOT penetrate skin unless it is damaged (i.e open cut) or if you spill some in your eyes, for example.
Reply:no as long as u didnt have no cuts on ur skin
Reply:yeah sadly STDs are absorbed through the skin.

you are in bad shape my friend.

Over the long run, does glycolic acid make your skin thinner or thicker?

2010-04-24T04:07:00.001-07:00

It thins the skin by removing the outer layer, but it also promotes collagen production. So in the long run is it good or bad for your skin?

Over the long run, does glycolic acid make your skin thinner or thicker?
Glycolic Acid is a thorough exfoliator, removing the outer layers of thickened or damaged skin leaving a smoother and healthier appearance. Glycolic Acid can penetrate the deeper layers of the skin, increasing the rate of dead cell shedding, new skin cell production and collagen formation. With prolonged use, Glycolic Acid has been found to be beneficial in improving dry skin, treating age spots, improving oily and acne prone skin and decreasing fine lines and wrinkles... So in the long run your skin will be ok... Please dont ask why the hell I know this!

Is there anything i can do to improve translucent skin.?

2010-04-24T04:06:00.001-07:00

Besides tanning. I am six months pregnant so tanning is out of the question. Im not extremely pale. I just have really thin skin and you can see my veins everywhere. Especially on my chest and arms. Think of the last carie movie they made.

Tanning made it go away to the point that my boyfriend didnt even realize how bright my veins are until i stopped going for a few months and things went back to normal. To me i look horrible. People are always amazed at how bright and big my veins are. I just want them to not be as noticeable.

Is there anything i can do to improve translucent skin.?
Maybe try a self-tanner. BeautiControl makes a great self-tanning system called Leg Apeel. It's actually made for your legs, but you can use it anywhere, except probably on your face. It is a 3-step system that gives really natural-looking results.

1. Peel! Overnight, Leg Peel loosens dry, dead skin cells, especially on knees and ankles, so when you use Leg Scrub the next morning, you get ultimate exfoliation power. Cover your legs with Leg Peel prior to bedtime and allow to dry before getting in bed.

2. Scrub! In your morning shower, Leg Scrub polishes and smoothes skin for the best application of Self Tanner for Legs possible. Massage gently into your skin – paying special attention to your knees and ankles. Then rinse and shave your legs. This blend of sugar and salt leaves legs silky soft and moisturized.

3. Self-tan! Self Tanner for Legs contains advanced ingredients for an even, natural-looking tan that’s never “orangey.” Start at your ankles, applying the tanner sparingly on ankles and knees, and work your way up, massaging into skin in circular motions. The tanner is tinted to help you know where you’ve applied the product to ensure even coverage. Avoid contact with your clothing until the product is dry. For deeper color, wait at least 24 hours before re-applying. Color should last for several days, but you’ll want to re-apply at least weekly to maintain color.

You can order it online at www.beautipage.com/malorifulgham%26gt;product... new products%26gt;leg apeel
Reply:Use thick foundation makeup to cover up the veins. Find makeup that matches Your skin tone. People dont usually look at others arms for too long so it wont be very noticible. For your chest, do the same thing or just dont wear low cut shirts

The thinning is due to the continuous steroid treatment. Once you are no longer applying the steroids then your skin with thicken again. You should go see an allergy specialist to find out what is causing the eczema.

You may try a vitamin E oil (if it does not irritate your eczema). Vitamin E is very good for the skin and is actually being used in the treatment of burn victims at many burn centers across the United States. Vit E has strong rejuvenating and healing effects on the skin.

Will the chemical of the skin peeling makes my skin thinner?
This is somewhat correct. You will literally remove the skin cells on the surface with the microbrasion. This skin will grow back and no you won't have thin skin but it is always a good idea to put on some sunscreen if you recently removed skin cells because the sun can penetrate causing redness, irritation or in some severe cases skin cancer.

Should i prepare my skin for a tattoo??
i'm sure that everyone who knows they're getting a tattoo, know's it's going to be there forever.

don't listen to the idiot's below you saying "omg, it's gonna be there for life %26amp; it'll be gross when you're older. blah blah."

life's too short to be scared of **** like that, seriously. just go for it.

if you're scared for your skin being dry, lotion it daily, over %26amp; over again. there's nothing wrong with doing that.. but for having "thin" skin, there's no way of fixing that.. infact i've never heard of "thin" skin. everyone has the same amount of skin on their body.

good luck!

Reply:Good question, so would I.
Reply:nothings impossible, but some things wouldnt turn out the best.
Reply:The best way to redo tile grout is to grind the old grout and apply new stuff. If you just try to "skin over" old grout, the new skin probably won't stick to it for very long because the grout is hardened and, just like cement, or concrete, if the grouts "pores" are hardened then the new grout can only penetrate the closest and available ones. Grout is so dense that it is unlikely that you would get new to stick to old without grinding out a good portion of the old before you try to "reskin" it. Also, after the grinding process, make sure that you saturate the old grout, with water, to make it more acceptable to the new grout.
Reply:They have color stains for the grout now. Try that.
Reply:Very easily done and very effective seal against dirt and discoloration.

Take ordinary portland cement plus a hardener and some ordinary latex paint as a colorant Mix about 3 cups of portland cement to 3/4 cup hardener and 1/3 cup of latex paint. Add water as needed.

Mist the tile first, wetting it good then take the mix above and go down the grooves with a leather glove finger and it will make them look like new and last indefenitely .

This method is used in commercial building and seals the tile. No more silicone junk needed once you seal up the grout this way.
Reply:The Tile Council of North America recommends you remove at least 1/2 the depth of the existing grout. Dremel tool works best, though tile dealers do sell a hand-tool.

I'd recommend removing 2/3 of the existing grout, to be safe.

If you want to avoid doing this again in the future, use either an epoxy grout (available at Lowes under the name SpectraLock), or seal your floor when you are done.

Can u get dead skin in your mouth?

2010-04-24T04:01:00.000-07:00

so at the top of my gums in between my gums and my teeth .. the part that is in the right upper corner of your mouth on the outside of your teeth... there is like white thin skin coming off my gums up there... whats going on? i bruch my teeth floss n use mouth wash so its not from that but what is it?

Can u get dead skin in your mouth?
I have never heard of dead skin in your mouth. And I work with mouths all day. It could be an allergy to something.

Best thing to do is go see your dentist and have him look at it. Only he can tell you exactly what it is.

I searched this site over and over and it says nothing about skin being dead in your mouth caused by no reason.

But like I said call your dentist and see if you can talk to him before you come in.

Thats the best thing I can advise you to do!

Good Luck

First tatoo and sensitive skin?

2010-04-24T04:00:00.001-07:00

I am scheduled to have my first tattoo next Sat. I want a small basic outline of the Claddagh ring (hands holding a heart with a crown on top). I have very sensitive and thin skin...placement suggestions? I was thinking my lower right back.

Does anyone know how small a tattoo artist can go?

First tatoo and sensitive skin?
The lower back is a very painful and sensitive place. I have one on there, and it hurt very mch. The most comfortable was on my chest for me. But get it whereever you like, it all hurts a little bit anyway.
Reply:Thin skin is not necessarily a bad thing. the lower back Sides especially are sensitive due to more muscle than skin and bone. I know 1st hand my muscles "jumped" a lot when i was being drilled on. (I have 5 tattoos 2 large and 3 small) the center parts of my back top and bottom did NOT hurt nearly as bad. I have a dragon in the top center that is rather big and its pain was a 4 compared to the rose which is much smalled i got on the lower left part of my back where there is much more skin and muscle and it was an 8 in pain. I also know that the color RED seems to be the #1 color for people to be sensitive to for some reason. I suggest talking with several (3 or 4) tattoo artists and get their input before committing to location and size.
Reply:The first response said the lower back is painful which isn't necessarily true. I have five tattoos and two of them are very large and on my lower back. Everyones nerve patterns in their skin are different.

If you get something that is RIGHT on a bone, like the top of your foot- it is probably going to hurt a bit. Other than that, it just depends on your nerves. I have one on each hip that didn't hurt at all, my two lower back ones where fine- I fell asleep even- except one little spot nearly killed me. My artist told me it is random what will make you jump.

As far as how small the artist can go, they can go pretty much as small as you want. If it is possible to draw it that small- then it can be tattooed that small. I would at least get it big enough to get your money's worth though.

Good luck!
Reply:Sensitive skin has nothing to do with getting a tattoo. It has to do with how thick your skin is and what level of pain tolerance u have. I have several tattoos and the first one i got was on my lower back, in which i have chinese characters on my neck and some on my ankle and a shoulder piece. Out of all of them the lower back was the most painfull ( i almost past out) anywhere close to your butt, which has the most nerves will be painfull. But if you can take that part of your body no problem then, anywhere else on your body should be easy. Good luck! By the way u will regret a small tattoo... cause later on the ink will start to smear and if u get a small tat later on it will look like a black blob... u dont want that.
Reply:A small colored tattoo will look like a blob of nothing in 10 years, be careful about getting too much detail in a small tattoo. I have a few tattoos, i suggest you consider the covered parts like back, thighs, breasts for tattoo especially if you are not keen on having it on display every day. painful areas are where the skin is more soft like near armpits, nipples, and also hurts like hell across a bony area, i was getting tattooed across the breast plate on my chest, on the bone it felt like i was being stabbed in the chest with a jackhammer.

Enjoy the experience, take the time to have it done in a peaceful place, and remember the tattoo is just an ornament to prove you went through the pain of getting it done..... hmmm?
Reply:1st am Irish. very pale, sensitive and thin skin. I have 2 tattoos on my lower back one on each side. They hurt but nothing I couldn't tolerate. My 3rd is in between my shoulder blades. It's a Celtic cross that runs down my spine %26amp; out to the edges of my shoulder blades, that was the least painful of the three (accept when they got close to bones on my shoulders). Placement really should be based on whether you want it visable, future employment, weight loss and gain due to life changes (no tummy tattos if you are having kids)

When it comes to size you don't want to go too small. you lose the detail and over time it will just look like a black blob of ink. Your artist will recomend how small you can go. Good luck
Reply:Hon, some people have a higher tollerance for pain than other and on some people, the lower back hurts for others it doesn't.

It don't matter where you get it, its going to hurt. It won't hurt bad at all, infact its a bareable pain, kind of annoying. Trust me you will be okay. Don't worry about it. And don't get it too small, don't get it somewhere that you can gain excessive weight at. I have 2 sparrows with banners under each and in the banner 1st banner says Kayla 2nd banner Jamie. It is between my shoulder blades!!!

Its nothing to get worked up over at all. You will do fine trust me....Good luck Hope everything goes well!!!! HAVE FUN!!!
Reply:I would say either there, on like your hip, or in between your shoulder blades. If you have sensitive skin, it is going to hurt no matter where you get it. That tattoo would look really good on the inside of your wrist, the area is a little painful but a small tattoo doesn't take long to complete so you would only have to sit through it for like 45 minutes. How small they can do your tattoo depends on how intricate the design is. The more intricate, the larger it needs to be. If it is jsut the basic outline of the ring with the heart in the middle and the hands they should be able to do it pretty small.

Good luck to you!! =]

Is plain soap the way to go?? How to make my skin look fresh and alive???

2010-04-24T04:00:00.000-07:00

Hi after years of trying out products such as clinique, lancome, clarins I still have bad skin. I have been using for the past year clerasils ultra range as it cleared up spots and I loved the exfoliating effect. However, when I wash my face and apply no make up i literally look grey. I have patchy skin tone...red little patches....thin skin under my eyes which is literally grey/purple colour....dry patches between eyebrows which no exfoliating shits. I really look like one of those celebs without make up awful pics every day but I hate having to wear make up every single day as it adds 20 mins on to my routine every morning. Guys says they hate make up but i look a horror without it. Im only 24 and in good shape and the doctor says its not classed as problem skin as i dont have enough spots for it to be acne but the spots are horrible.

What does anyone recommend for putting colour back into my skin and making me look healthy??

Is plain soap the way to go?? How to make my skin look fresh and alive???
Try drink lots of water to hydrate your skin, eat fresh foods for vitamins etc....

Only use natural product on your skin.......the chinese shop sell herbal soaps...

Moisture you skin daily.....with vitamin e, olive oil, coco butter or pearl cream (purchase at chinese store)

For cleansers, as I said in a previous post, I swear by Cetaphil. It's the one recommended by a lot of dermatologists and you can get it at chemists or priceline.
Reply:Using plain soap is going to do no good in fact would dry your skin up and make it look terrible. I would rather recommend you use a good skin moisturiser which nourishes your skin, is oil free and gives your skin a natural look. My personal best skin care cream is Zenmed's three step system.

Help with red splotchy skin on chest?

2010-04-24T03:59:00.002-07:00

I have very thin skin. The skin on my chest always appears red and rashy looky. It gets worse if I tan. Is there anything I can do to reduce the redness or is it something I've just got to live with?

Help with red splotchy skin on chest?
I've suffered with the same thing all my life, I'm a redhead with quite sensitive skin. I once spoke with my GP and all he advised was to keep it well moisturised and use a high SPF on it when in the sun. I did use the green powder you use to reduce redness on your face when I wore low cut frocks and that used to minimise how it looked.
Reply:i would ask a doctor, maybe a dermatologist.
Reply:rub lotion on it
Reply:My Exwife had the same thing with her chest. She went to the Doctor for it and there is nothing they can do to change it. Don't worry, it doesn't make any difference in how pretty you are.
Reply:I use to have something similar to this I got it because I tanned in the tanning bed.

It is called Sun Poison it is an fungal infection of the skin.

Try rubbing real emu oil on it several times a day.You can get this from a vitamin shop that sells the real stuff not some that is manufactured.But if it does not clear up go to a doctor.

Advice you get this from the tanning bed not being cleaned normally.Which is why I stopped going to one.It took about 6 weeks to get rid of mine the emu oil is the only thing that gets rid of it for good.

The 250.00 cream the doctor gave me made it go away for only a short time.P.S. mine would be white then turn to red in heat.
Reply:It sounds like you have sensitive skin, however it is very likely you will always get redness or a rash to some extent. First try switching your products for you skin to some without perfume or for sensitive skin. Second switch to non-biological washing liquid or powder, as biological can irritate your skin. If these don't work then go to your doctor and let him have a look - you may have a skin disorder such as Rosacae, although you don't mention any face symptoms, but it needs checking out.

I have got stretchmarks and thin skin on my legs. Lately I have gained quite a few spider veins and damaged capillaries. My skin has also become quite sensitive. Any ideas how I can reduce the sensitivity as I am finding it quite painful some days

Help with tender skin?
This situation needs to be evaluated by a dr to find out what could be causing this tenderness (which can be caused by thinning skin).

In the mean time ask your dr if it's ok to try a cool bath to see if that helps ease some of the sensitivity of your skin.

Thicker skin / extra layer for dark circles?

2010-04-24T03:57:00.001-07:00

I have hereditary dark circles under my eyes (got pale, thin skin). Is there any way of making the skin thicker / creating an extra layer naturally, e.g. with oils, fat, or other subsatnces?

Thank you in advance.

Thicker skin / extra layer for dark circles?
There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.

http://www.mydarkcirclesblog.com/2006/11...

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:

Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water %26amp; stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath %26amp; let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K %26amp; Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

http://www.mydarkcirclesblog.com/2007/01...

http://www.mydarkcirclesblog.com .. tips on how to reduce dark circles, the causes of dark circles, home remedies, eye creams reviews, make up tips, and natural healer.
Reply:I too have dark circles under my eyes. What you should do is always apply eye cream, specifically an eye cream that gets rid of dark circles. Try Clinique's line of eye creams, they are great.

Remember that the skin around our eyes is 6 times thinner than the rest of our body so you gotta take extreme care to that area. Oh and if you have nasal problems (allergies, sinusitis, cold) there's no way to make your dark circles go away, because what you see as dark circles is actually the blood flowing slower than it should because of your congestion.

Excess skin/flaps at the lower part of the vagina entrance?

2010-04-24T03:57:00.000-07:00

This may be a normal anatomy of my vagina and just never noticed it before.... But, I have excess thin skin/flaps located at the bottom of the entrance to my vagina and not sure if this is natural or something is going on. No discomfort or anything.... I have an appointment with the gyn in a few days for an annual check up but, want to see if other females have this same skin/flaps... thank you for your help.

Excess skin/flaps at the lower part of the vagina entrance?
women have a labia majora and a labia minora and there is a thin skin flap at the bottom of the vaginal opening other than that there shouldnt be any huge skin folds. but every women is different and as long as it is normal for you and there is no abnormal or rapid growth I wouldn't worry about it.
Reply:Those are your inner set of labia. The outer set is the two puffy little "hot dog bun" looking things that surround your clitoris. Every woman's labia are shaped differently, and come in different sizes. It's nothing to worry about.

Are you talking about the pooch between his rib cage and back legs? Is your cat fixed? I've noticed that all of my cats who have been fixed get the belly pooch. If you cat is the proper weight, I wouldn't worry about it too much as long as it doesn't seem to bother him. If you're concerned it might be serious talk to your veterinarian.
Reply:Im not sure but that sounds like a hernia in the belly. If you had your cat fixed it could have affected him that way to. I seriously suggest that you take your cat to the vet and have him evaluated for a possible abdominal hernia.

Causes for dry, peeling, thinned out skin??

2010-04-24T03:54:00.001-07:00

I have been taking a multi vitamin with high levels of vit A but it has high levels of all of them including fish oils and alpha lipoic acid. My face is clear and even coloured but my skin is flaking off and feels very thin and tight, and when I squint or stretch my face it wrinkles all over like theres no water in my skin. i use sunscreen and very rich moisturiser but it doesnt stop the stretchy wrinkly thing. I'm 23 and way to young for wrinkles!!!

Causes for dry, peeling, thinned out skin??
Too much vitamin A can cause this problem. There are some vitamins that you can take very high doses and your body removes what you don't need. But the fat soluable vitamins like A, are different, and you can get too much of those. Even though your multivitamin may have the borderline dose, if you're getting anything else with the vitamin in it, you're getting too much. A simple test would be to cut back on your multivitamin--take it just every other day and see what happens. If your skin improves, you've got your answer. If not, then it could be some underlying disease process causing your troubles. See a dermatologist.
Reply:Try using some oils on ur face. U can get it in any store. Apply it before taking bath and massage it on ur face in circular motions.U can also try Cetaphil moisturiser. It works well. Non greasy. Try not to wash ur face with hot water. Try warm water. Eat healthy food. Drink more water.

Reply:Vitamins are good, but too much can be bad for you. If you've been taking the vitamins faithfully and had normal skin beforehand, you should cut back your dosage. See a dermatologist also. I know some about skin care, but not as much as the doctors.

Have you been using an astringent with high alcohol content? That and other acne medication with salyclic acid can also have a tightening and thinning feeling effect.

Why is the skin underneath our eyes so sensitive n thin??

2010-04-24T03:53:00.000-07:00

Whenever i rub my eyes or something it becomes red instantly compared to other parts of my face, is there a special purpose for this??

Why is the skin underneath our eyes so sensitive n thin??
The skin around your eyes is the thinnest on your body and the capillaries are SO close to the surface thus the immediate redness when stimulated by rubbing. I think I read that the epidermis there is only 1 mm thick. Take care of it and DON'T rub or expose it to sun or tanning beds! You will avoid the "saggy-baggys" that way.
Reply:I'm not really sure but I think its thin because if its going to be too thick we would have a hard time to open our eyes

i have a lot of cellulite %26amp; my skin seems "too big" will it get tight and smooth the more I exercise or will my skin stay loose and flabby??

I am 33 %26amp; thin 118 lbs but i was out of shape. biking %26amp; yoga now but will the skin get tight again in time?
It will probably stay loose. I recommend a skin firming lotion like Nivea
Reply:Your skin will get its elasticity back in time. To speed things up try a firming cream like nivea as well as excercise. As an added supplement of course. I lost 45 lbs. after having my son and had alot of tummy skin that was floppy and icky. I slathered my belly every day as well as kept up my excercise. And it has really helped alot!
Reply:It depends on how big you were before you started exercising.

Skin does have a natural elasticity, but only to a certain point. As for celulite, it is evident in EVERYONE'S body, it's just more prominent in some than others. You can reduce the signs of celulite with exercise and healthy diet, however this does take time, it is not an over night, or even over month fix.

Be patient, be consistent.

In alot of cases where the skin has been stretched past it's point of elasticity the only remedy is cosmetic surgery (ie. "the biggest loser" competitions).

This should be your last resort!!!

Please also keep in mind that these "firming lotions" etc have been proven to make absolutely no difference.

Good luck, and stay with it :)

How long before we develop fabric that will be so thin yet so well insulated that it'll be like another skin?

yet it'll keep you warm no matter how cold it gets and cool when it's like mid summer here in texas? do you think people will be comfortable enough with their bodies to walk around in public wearing basically just another layer of skin or is that too far fetched because you know one day they'll have a cure for obesity and everyone can have that perfect body.

Materials like this exist now...it's just that they are too expensive to be mass produced.

Gore-Tex was the first kind of this, but it's still rather thick. There are plenty of materials that are much thinner - these are used in military and special applications.

I live in Texas too...and if it kept me cool in the summertime, I'd be willing to walk around just wearing another layer of skin!

I recommend that you go and make an appointment to see a very reputable model agency, a very well know one!!. Don't listen to anyone that's not affiliate with a top agency. There are so many wolves in sheep clothing out there ready to get you in to all sorts of bad stuff.

I modelled for 18 years, mainly runway stuff. Your portfolio is the tool that will get you the big gigs and it will cost quite a bit so prepare for that. A good portfolio will set you back $2000-$5000+. Your agency will recommend a good reputable photographer for you.

Good luck!

Well im getting abt old for black and when I read through skin seasons one point I feel like im summer then it sounds more like spring.

All I know is even when I buy ivory foundatin it seems too dark and doesnt match my neck which is so pale...

I am looking into buying some self tanners just to giv me a little bit human looking.

My main delima is trying to decide if a chochlate herseys brown is right for me with platnum highlights like my instincts tell me or should I competly do something else?

better to go to the salon.

When people alot of weight , why is there excess skin left when they are thin?

2010-04-24T03:49:00.001-07:00

When the body reaches a certain point in weight gain (i.e. morbidly obese not just a little fat) then the skin stretches beyond the point of no return. The skin stretches sooo much that it loses the ability to come back to where it was (over-stretched) originally and they now have to do surgery to remove it.

Keep in mind that this only happens at a certain point in weight gain which means HUGE! I think it's at 300 pounds or more for some people.

When people alot of weight , why is there excess skin left when they are thin?
skin stretches out to accommodate the fat, but it doesn't automatically stretch back if it's been big for a long time.. kind of like elastic in underwear!!
Reply:because they only loose the fat/cellulite and the skin around it has already been stretched from being fat for a long period of time.
Reply:The skin has been stretched out so long by the excess bulk that it does not return to its original shape.
Reply:The skin has taken longer to return to it's normal size then it did to burn the cellulite. This normally only happens when one is very ill and loses a lot of weight very rapidly, loses the weight via an un-healthy method (ie: fasting) or you get liposuction.
Reply:The answers above are generally correct. I would only like to note that skin does not stretch. It actually grows by adding more cells. These cells will have to die off of be destroyed before skin can become smaller.

Reply:Olive oil, aloe vera (grow your own for big savings) and for hands especially in winter try using bag balm. Here's my trick for softening up dry, rough 'winter hands':

- Bag Balm (Walgreens carries it for about $5 a tin)

- A pair of cheap cotton gloves from as garden store.

- Just lather on the bag balm onto the backs of your hands thick around fingers or any dry patches.

- Then put on the gloves overnight. It's like you have a new set of skin the next morning. You can use plastic gloves but I find them too uncomfortable.

The gloves you can buy for $3-5 and you'll only be able to use them for this. Just wash them out in hot soapy water and dry for next time.

(depending on your ages) the thin lines may result from a lack of moisture (water). STOP the HOT water on the face and use cooler water when cleansing, (this will cut down on oil production too). .......Use a "freshener" and then a very-very light moisturizer after cleansing your face. ....You should see improvement within days. The cleansers usually remove the "Oil" however some times they strip the skin of Water also.

When gaging my ears, i did it too fast on one of them and the skin around it is thin. Is healing possible?

I have been waiting for it to heal but have really seen no progress with it getting thicker.

When gaging my ears, i did it too fast on one of them and the skin around it is thin. Is healing possible?
It should heal, or keloid then it will have to be surgically removed. Do you realize that if you gauge them too far they will have to be surgically closed? Going past a 0 or a 00 is very risky. You will have to see a plastic surgeon (most likely not covered by insurence) to cut off and sew your ear back. My sister did the same thing, gauged her ears. She wanted flesh tunnels, now she has flesh tunnels for life unless she goes to the doc.
Reply:when whating your ears???????

Reply:It's not going to get any better if you tore the skin badly. I gauged mine to a 0g and had no problems. You can look around on www.bmezine.com for more information. If you click on the ear piercings and go to standard piercings there should be some experiences on the right hand side. Just look around for a while and you might find something useful.
Reply:Neosporin and keep earring out until it is completely healed. You have to pace yourself when you are gaging your flesh or you can have permanent distortion. Peace to you from frogspeaceflower. Uhleesha is right the word is gauging......
Reply:The word is actually "gauging."

How big did you stretch them?

My ears are gauged and I know a lot of people with gauged ears... I have no idea what you're talking about with "thin" skin unless you mean that you've stretched it to 1/2 in. or something.

In any case, every ear is different. Some people will say that 2g is the "point of no return" but (speaking out of experience) I disagree. I've never heard of a person having difficulty healing, however if you're unsure there is a safe route to take.

I think you're trying to keep your ears gauged, and you want to increase sizes, though.

In any case, you should reduce them the same way you gauged them: Use a taper and get halfway to the next size up (this will make your ear vaunerable) then put in a plug that is one gauge down from your current size. You'll notice that your ear will hold on to that plug for dear life. :D

Good luck.
Reply:go to the doctor and let them look at it
Reply:If you have stretched (not gauged) your ears too fast and are showing a thinned spot the best thing to do is to downsize and massage the tissue.

Then after a week or so, stretch back up to the size you were originally at. A week later, downsize again. Another week later ... back to the original size. Repeat as necessary. It may take a while to notice the difference.

Massage the tissue every chance you get. Using emu oil or Vitamin E oil when you massage will help with the oxygen flow to the area and promote tissue growth. Massaging with oils isn't necessary, it may speed things up though.

You aren't the first one this has happened to and I am sure you won't be the last. :)

Good luck and let us know how it goes.

What does it mean to be thin-skinned?? Someone called me that, and I need to know what it means.

Thin-Skinned???
it means that you are extra-sensitive to criticism and your feelings get hurt easily. You are easily offended. There is nothing wrong with that. I am very sensitive. Sometimes it can work to your disadvantage... because we have a harder time letting comments made go. But being thin-skinned is also a good quality to have.... unlike being thick-skinned, we have the innate ability to feel how others would feel and we are empathetic people... we feel the hurts of others. We carefully think through things before we say or do things, in the hopes of not offending or hurting others by our words or actions. That is a good quality to have.

Thin Skinned?

2009-11-20T03:19:00.002-08:00

As a result of another member on this site posting a question asking if atheists had a better sense of humor than religious fundamentalists, I decided to put that idea to the test. I posted the "Allah %26amp; Jesus" question about a fictional boxing match between them then later posted "Allah %26amp; Jesus Part Two" because of the various witty responses to that post.

Two religious people did not see the humor in this. They were offended to the point where they had both posts deleted. I was not angry or hurt by this action. I was surprised by it.

As a result of this action, I've come to the conclusion that perhaps the original post was correct. Atheist DO have a substancially better sense of humor. They can see the satire and irony in it all. Religious fundamentalists are another story. Given that they had my posts deleted, would you not agree that they have little or no sense of humor and are very thin skinned?

Your thoughts? And as before, humor is always welcome!

Okay, sorry. I stole that from devlsadvocat, who is an atheist and who andswered a very long and involved question that way. I thought it was hysterical.

Yes, I do think atheists generally have better senses of humor about God because they are not afraid of blaspheming. I'm not atheist, but I'm also not uptight about things religious, so I find the atheists much funnier. Irreverance is funny. It just is.

Their apparent lack of ability to think for themselves and see reality for what it really is never ceases to amaze me, talk about herd mentality. What I also find amazing is how they constantly whine about disrespecting our President, yet have absolutely no qualms about bashing Clinton. I have to presume he wasn't their President.

Stratum lucidum

What layer is present in thick skin but not in thin?
Fat?
Reply:Fat (adipose tissue) is correct, but:

"The terms thin skin and thick skin refer to the epidermis only and not to the total thickness of the skin. "

"Thick skin (of the palms and soles) is hairless, lacks pigment and is sometimes described as glabrous. Thin skin, in contrast, has hair, sebaceous glands and is pigmented. "

Fat people have more skin. So, why are thin people called "skinny"?

Fat people don't have more skin. The act of gaining weight doesn't produce more skin.

----------------------------

Response to eve-in-BKK-not-thai:

Fat people do NOT have more skin, anyone who thinks so is just ignorant of biology. Once you reach adulthood, you have the same amount of skin and fat cells for the rest of your life. Fat cells are repositories for storing fat, as that’s what their purpose is. Fat itself is just simply a stored form of energy. When a person gains weight they don’t produce more fat cells, however, their existing fat cells grow larger as they store more and more fat.

When you lose weight, the process reverses itself. The body removes fat from its fat cells and uses it as energy and the fat cells shrink in the process; however, they don’t go away. They’re still there; they’re just smaller because they’re not holding as much fat.

Skin is malleable and can be stretched, which is why when someone who is very obese and then loses weight, their skin may become loose, giving the appearance of more skin, however, the act of gaining weight didn't produce more skin. They still have the same amount they had when they reached adulthood.

The only way you can actually lose fat cells, and not just fat itself, is by liposuction, as liposuction removes the actual fat cells and not just the fat they contain.

Fat people have more skin. So, why are thin people called "skinny"?
Didn't answer the question in the slightest. Report It

Reply:Dear, fat people have more skin and fat (flesh)- a lot. Thin people have skin and fat - very little, maybe they only have skin left, that's why thin people are called "skinny" -- only skin wraps their bodies
Reply:I think it is because skin is thin.
Reply:Appropriate nowadays as thin ( hence skin ) is in.
Reply:ever heard about the say "only skin and bones"? wall, it exist, at least in romania :)

so that's why i think that thin peoples are called skinny
Reply:its just a grammatical error...
Reply:Because fer thin people, without much flesh, all it's left to hold them is just their skin
Reply:thin pple are called skinny because their bone structure tends to show through the skin.fat pple don't have more skin,they have alot of meat/fat in their bodies unlike slim pple who have heavy bones.
Reply:ic wat u mean..fat ppl r bigger n there4 more skin is needed 2 cover them..but in actual fact u dont grow skin u expand them..dats y when a person looses weight u can c d extra skin hanging..on the question, they r called dat way bcuz dats all they have...unlike fat ppl who have fat u call them fatty.....no offence 2 anybody.
Reply:Maybe because thin people have less fat. You can see more of the skin and less of the fat. Isn't that self-explanatory?

Everyone has skin.So why are thin people called "skinny"?

2009-11-20T03:18:00.001-08:00

To me,so-called "skinny people" are just those without

an excess of stored fat and cellulite.So who came up with

the term "skinny"?What would you call them?

Everyone has skin.So why are thin people called "skinny"?
Skinny means - resembling skin - in other words, they look like they are all skin - and no stored fat or cellulite, as you said.
Reply:Cause they're "skin and bones"
Reply:it's because below the skin is nothing.. just bones..

below fat people's skin there is fat
Reply:Shortened form of "skin and bones"
Reply:good question.
Reply:coz under the skin they got no fat... just skin and bones
Reply:I guess its because they are all "skin" and bone. Like wise "fatty" is cos they are predominantly fat.
Reply:idk it sounds good. who cares?? just call them thin
Reply:skinny is short for skin and bones
Reply:that's a good question u could call them bony but that would be the same thing as skinny cuz everyone has bones, i can't think of anything
Reply:Yes, everyone does have skin but maybe it is because they have a lot less skin than the larger people?!?!
Reply:it has no fat so it is mostly skin
Reply:By that reasoning you should also question why overweight people are called 'fat'. Everyone has fat also. Skinny is just a word that is used. I think skinny came from the term skin and bones. That is the word I use to describe people who are too thin.
Reply:They are all praises, and just to help a person to describe another person.

I.E. short, fat, thin, tall
Reply:They only have skin. No fat. hence, the name, skinny.

The eye cream is wonderful and is full of beneficial materials that help to lift and firm under your eyes, and reduce the dark circles if you have them.

Reply:There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.

http://www.mydarkcirclesblog.com/2006/11...

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:

Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water %26amp; stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath %26amp; let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off. Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K %26amp; Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

To hide dark circles, you can use YSL concealer or salmon concealer.

Reply:My advice to you.... SLEEP, SLEEP,SLEEP!! Lack of sleep is the number one cause of saggy eyes. To treat this put "fresh" cucumbers on. The thinner the better, because that way you get all the nutrients in the cucumber as much as possible. Try it, it will work! Natural is the best way!

Why are my breasts so soft and the skin on my breast so thin?

2009-11-20T03:17:00.003-08:00

I am only 21. I am NOT overweight. What can i do to make them harder and the skin thicker?

Why are my breasts so soft and the skin on my breast so thin?
The only time breasts are hard is when they are fake. They are not supposed to be hard and thick skinned. They don't need to be. Only your body parts that are used all the time (hands, feet) need to have a thick strong skin.

My guess is you want them to be firmer, as in not sagging down to your waist. Well, honey...there is nothing you can do about that, except buy a well supporting bra.
Reply:I don't understand why you would want to. I bet they are perfect just the way they are.
Reply:Do nothing. There's nothing wrong with softness.
Reply:Why would you want to make them harder? Breast are suppose to be soft!
Reply:you need them massaged and kneedeed often

i can help i am medically trained
Reply:its better to have them soft. if boobs are hard, they are fake. dont worry girl. enjoy it while ur young before they get saggy !!
Reply:Your hot, if you ask any more go to a porn site
Reply:dont know if this is what you are asking but i have this stuff from Victorias secret that is supposed to make and invisible bra and it will help with the skin too. i tried it and it at least makes a visible difference and the skin does feel tighter. its a lotion. hope this helps
Reply:that's just natural for them to do that - and yes the only way to make them firm is stuff something fake under your skin. Yes the body changes with age even at your age. Stop watching celebrities and love yourself for who you are already. For good time check out this website and you'll get the right idea : http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/
Reply:Breasts are not muscles, but they are supported by muscles...and if there is no muscle tone in the supports, then the breasts have little support and are soft and flabby.

When I was bodybuilding, I had real firm shapely breasts...now I am a bit lazier, they are not as good, but, every so often I get enthusiastic and go to a gym and work out hard, and they firm up immediately.

What you do is build and tone the muscles that support the breast, and thats what makes the breasts firmer. Swimming is also a great exercise, and any gym can give you the right exercises to do.

So go do exercises and I will guarantee you firmer breasts in as soon as 3 months, and they will get firmer still in 6 months.

Then you have to keep up the exercises to maintain them.

So go try and see for yourself..
Reply:well since you are only 21 they are called "saggers", when you are 31 they will be called "super saggers", when you are 41 they will be called nasty.

geeze that's a shame, most women don't have your symptoms until long after there children are born and done feeding.....
Reply:Your Brest should be firm and soft all at the same time. They should not be rock hard. There are exercises u can do to lift and firm them. U need not spend the $ to join a gym. Get 2 cans of soup (what ever U want) of equal weight. Lay on the floor. Put your arms out like a cross. Lift both arms at the same time toward the ceiling and back again to the floor. Start out maybe 15 times and keep raising the # over time. Its works similar to ISOMETRICS. Once you feel confident you can find a new place to lay, a bit elevated off the floor. When you do the exercises, allow your arms to fall a bit below your body. This will also increase your flexibility. Good luck.
Reply:That woman nature; they are supposed to be soft,

if you want your skin thicker you'll need to eat more fat,

but you won't like the results after that,

so stay calm and love yourself the way you are
Reply:I dont know ,I'll have to look for myself

When i pull my foreskin there is a thin bit off tough skin connecting the head of my penis to my foreskin.?

Does your skin tan better through a thin layer of water?

2009-11-20T03:17:00.001-08:00

Does your skin tan better if you have water on it? i.e when coming out of the water and you sun bake, does your skin tan better then just sitting in the sun on any normal day???? Or does your skin tan better if you are swimming and lightly covered in water.

Does your skin tan better through a thin layer of water?
It tans at the same rate. However being in the water can alleviate some of the 'heat' you usually get from sunbathing.

Please don't use baby oil or any oil in your skin. Think of a roast in the oven, you put oil and salt on it to make the skin crackle. You don't want to do that to your skin even mildly.

I wouldn't suggest going out specifically to tan at all. Some sun is good but too much can kill.
Reply:The skin tans better if you are doing something, not just laying there, cause the tan is not going to be even. Try playing beach volleyball, or swimming...the water doesn't matter, really, but it feels nice as the sun dries it off!. Try baby oil, is the most effective tanner!

How does it feel to get a tattoo on your inner wrist? im kinda scared 2 get one because the skin is so thin?

2009-11-20T03:17:00.000-08:00

The tattoo I got on my inner wrist hurt, but not terribly much. The only bad part was when the needle crossed the tendon/ligament on the wrist (if you bend your hand in toward your wrist, it should be very visible). That part hurt pretty badly, but it didn't last long. I've never been tattooed on another part of my body, though, so I don't know if it hurts more or less than other places.

How does it feel to get a tattoo on your inner wrist? im kinda scared 2 get one because the skin is so thin?
it depends on the size/how many colors/detail. i have a small star on my inner wrist, it took about two minutes, if that, to finish. those were a very painful two minutes, almost extreme burning, but i think it was worth it. of course its going to hurt, but if you're definitely sure you want one there, go for it =)

and i dont regret mine at all. tattoos on wrists can be easily hidden.
Reply:I have one on my wrist and one on my back shoulder blade. The one on my wrist hurt more because the skin there is less fatty. But the pain was bearable. All depends on your pain tolerance though.
Reply:If you really want and love the tattoo go for the tattoo, go for it, don't worry about the pain. Once the tattoo is there, it is there, and in the end it's all worth it.

If it means a lot to you to get a tattoo and that's the spot you want it on, pain shouldn't really stop you.

And, you'll probably end up getting it anyway right? No matter if people say it hurts or not hurts.
Reply:wrist has some fleshyness to it, i got one on my inner ankle, ya know right over the bone...ouchie, and on both of my collar bones...i don't think there are too many other places that would hurt more
Reply:my friend just got one on her wrist. and its pretty big. she is a totally baby about pain and it didnt hurt her at all.
Reply:Of my five tattoos, my wrist hurt the third most. My ribs were the most painful and foot was still worse than the wrist (because it is bigger and has more detail).

Just remember to keep a wrist tattoo small and you will be fine.
Reply:i wont even lie tattoos dont hurt im 16 juss got mine and i think u will do juss fine the chest is prolly the worst soo sense ur not getting it there ur fine its a little sting then u go numb suprising how easy a tattoo is after the tattoo ur gonna be sore as hell that hurts the worse

What to u do when u have a bubble from a burn that is on top layer of ur skin which is thin?

2009-11-20T03:16:00.002-08:00

can u pop it or just keep putting burn lotion on???

What to u do when u have a bubble from a burn that is on top layer of ur skin which is thin?
Leave it alone. The bubble would pop on its own in a few days. Poping it now would just allow an infection to occur.
Reply:leave it alone!! put triple antibiotic ointment on it and a loose gause to keep out infection. When I was 8 my sister convinced me to put a bandaid on it. BIG MISTAKE. I still have a scar on my hand!
Reply:its most likely a blister. if you pop it it could get infected, so put on some burn lotion and then wrap it up with gauze.
Reply:You could bust it with a sterile needle and then put neosporin on it
Reply:left it alone. keep it dry.

if it got burst, then cut away the skin before it can trap dirt and infect the wound

Romney and Obama too thin-skinned?

2009-11-20T03:16:00.001-08:00

Romney gets his feelings hurt easily, and Obama is not comfortable in the attack. How can either one of these candidates be President if they have such thin skin?

I'd rather stick with McCain or Clinton. At least they can handle the job.

Romney and Obama too thin-skinned?
I agree that our next President needs to be tough. The election in November will be brutal, but that's nothing compared to what foreign dictators and nut-job terrorists might try to bring. I want somebody who's stood up to attacks before. I think it's obvious to everyone that McCain and Hillary fit that profile.
Reply:You really don't need a Rottweiler to secure the back yard.
Reply:mccain will fly off the handle at a moments notice, and he is unpredictable. Hillary is just a psycho *****.
Reply:Maybe. Are you suggesting it would be ugly if they were hemophiliacs?
Reply:I like McCain, but in the last debate he seemed more thin-skinned. Wasn't it Hillary that cried? Obama comes off as weak because he tries hard not to attack (not to say he never attacks, but he tries not to). It's part of the new type of politics that he is trying to advance.
Reply:McCain and Hillary have been "handling" their jobs in the senate and other gov. positions for the past 20 years. has either one secured our borders?
Reply:That's probably going to be the ticket and for the reasons you just mentioned.
Reply:I agree, the ole stop picking on me line is pathetic, and both like to play that game. Political correctness is evil.
Reply:You think Romney's too thin-skinned?

John McCain sputters every time he's questioned (not asked, but questioned) about his voting record. Every debate, the second it seems like someone's going after him even a little bit, his face goes red and his voice starts to crackle.
Reply:Obama isn't "thin-skinned," when has he shown this?

True he is just a naturally nice guy, but after seeing what happened to Kerry I believe he will do whatever it takes to defeat the Repugs in the general election, knocking down their scumbag swiftboat-type lies with a vengeance

BARACK THE VOTE!!
Reply:Obama is not comfortable on the attack? When he attacks it is more like stating the truth. Because he is stating the facts without manipulating them.

The Clinton's on the other hand have to manipulate the facts due to their dishonest habits.
Reply:Give McCain a couple months, he's going to blow his stack on national TV. We'll all see him explode.

Romney doesn't get his "feelings hurt", he's sticking up for himself because McCain's been lying about him.

He's had to fight the Republican establishment from the beginning because they don't care about the party only themselves. They're probably all afraid they'll lose their jobs.

I'm supporting Romney 'til the end. If his name is not on my ballot in November, I will be writing it in. As a conservative republican, I will not support McCain.

In groin area dark, dust like coming, color changing, but no itching. if wet, skin also become thin, jockitc

2009-11-20T03:15:00.002-08:00

Do you have stinging pains? If you do, it might be STD of some sort. But don't worry, I'm just giving you the worse case scenario.

But if there's no pain, just irritations, then it might be fungal infection. Dark area means it's inflamed. Fungal infection looks a lot like jock itch. If you don't treat it soon, it can blister and that's irritating.

Use Hydrozole cream and continue using it up til one or two week after the infection clears. however I think hydrozole is prescription only medication. Go to your doctor to have it checked if you really want to be sure.

Is there such as thin and thick skins about chihuahua?

2009-11-20T03:15:00.000-08:00

The large size of chihuahua have thick skins. The small size of chihuahua have thin skin. Also large, thick skinned ones are sweet

and have very much tolerance or maybe infinitly tolerate with other people. They are comfortable, not dangerous. Small, thin skinned ones are nervous, maybe fiece, and only little tolerance with other people. They are not comforable, dangerous. Both of them are the same in both apple head and deer head, no difference.

Is there such as thin and thick skins about chihuahua?
First of all, are you talking about long haired vs short haired??? I have a long haired Chi who is five pounds and is the nicest dog ever. She is great with babies, toddlers and all adults. Any dog can be mean, it's all up to the owner how he/she raises that dog. So if you're a nice person who is good to your dog and socializes him/her well, you'll have a great dog. But if your an asshole chances are so will your dog. It's all up to you!
Reply:You should be asking this in pets. My daughter has a mix, which is fine. I've seen some tea-cups who were vicious. I think in-breeding is the problem, but then, I'm not a big fan of small dogs. There are exeptions to every rule.
Reply:I know there are Apple head (they are usually thin skinned and very nervous.) Deer head do have a thicker skin, but in my experience are cranky and tend to bite more often. We had a deer head when I was growing up and my Grandma had an Apple head. Personal experience!

Retin-a micro thins skin?

2009-11-20T03:14:00.003-08:00

What does this mean? Im on retin-a micro and people say that it will make your skin thin? Im just trying to understand if this is a bad thing or a good thing? Acne blows, but the only way to get rid of it is by a topical, so either way your skin is gonna thin out...

Retin-a micro thins skin?
Our skin is made up of many layers of cells. Retin can cause flaking, redness, peeling - because one way it works is to increase the turnover of the skin cells - to help reveal the good skin beneath the outer old layer of skin.

Looking at it this way - it does make your skin "thin". It also makes you more sensitive to sunlight, and your skin turns red, peels more easily if you are exposed to strong sunlight or stayed too long in the sunlight.

Good or Bad?

It's bad when you start to have redness or flaking skin all over your face, making your acne look worse, but the good side of it is, it goes away after you stop using the medication for a while, or reduce the frequency of application.

Good luck in your acne cure. I've severe acne and am using a combination of BHA, AHA and benzoyl peroxide to control it, after having tried out retinoids and found out that my skin can't take it - my skin peels terribly and my face became red as a tomato each time I applied it.
Reply:Retin a will not thin the skin. Steroids are about the only topical known to thin the skin. It will dry your skin out and make it peel.

How can you treat a burn to upper layer of skin that is thin and is it dangerous??

2009-11-20T03:14:00.002-08:00

I think it depends on how large it is but it sounds like a minor burn which is not spreadable nor dangerous to the rest of your skin. Try using neosporin to keep the wound clean. It might bubble up and burn a bit but I wouldn't worry if its only the thin top layer. Keep in mind that our body will tell us if the wound needs medical attention, if so, contact your doctor. Hope this helps:-) Oh! and an old wives tale remedy "rubbing it with butter."

Thinning skin on wife's wrist due to cortisone injection 16 months ago. A wrist watch tears skin. Any help?

2009-11-20T03:14:00.000-08:00

The doctor said the cortisone would thin the skin but she didn't know it would be this severe. A gentle bump will tear the skin. She'll go to dermatologist if there is really anything that will help. Or have others found anything that will reduce the skin tears?

Thinning skin on wife's wrist due to cortisone injection 16 months ago. A wrist watch tears skin. Any help?
unfortunately, cortisone does thin skin out and there's little you can do about it.

All your wife can do is take extra care with her wrist, avoid wearing jewellery there and try not to use sticking plasters or anything similar as removing them can take the skin away at the same time. Also, inform any doctors etc in the future that your wife has 'tissue paper skin' and let them know they need to take care when handling her, my grandmother has a similar condition brought on by years of steroid taking for her arthritus, recently she went for a hip operation and some stupid person in theatres threw her around on the bed and ripped a 2 foot long gash in her thigh just by knocking her agaisnt a cot side. (we are suing the hospital as we did warn them)

I mean, they talk smack about my religion daily and yet the minute I ask a question about theirs....look out...it's hell fire and damnation.

oh boy, here I go again. They are going to be all over this...

Why is it that Mormons skin is so thin......?
it really, honestly isn't just the Mormons.

this should show us all that we each have our own faith. is it better that we honor another person's faith or attack it? what are the benefits of honoring another person's faith? what are the benefits of attacking it?

perhaps this will give you a chance to really think about how you ask questions. i don't know. i just think it is alot easier for everyone if we all play nice.
Reply:Maybe it was HOW you asked your question not the question itself. Just something to think about.
Reply:I am LDS. I didn't see your question, so it isn't fair of me to speculate on how that played out.

I'm sorry that you have had some bad experiences with other LDS. I have to say that no group of people in any belief system is perfect. Every group has their nice people and their rude people. I'm not one for "talking smack" about any religion. I'm sorry that you've had this done to you before. I can relate to what you are saying.

I think there's good in everyone. It's not always easy to see at first, though, and it's not always easy to stay patient with other people.

Have a nice night.
Reply:I'm LDS and i have to say that there is a saying that is said in our Church a lot that the Church is true, some of the members aren't. I don't think that it's fair for you to judge everyone so harshly, I'm sorry you have had some bad run ins. post your question you could be surprised.
Reply:They can dish it but they can't take it.
Reply:they are the poke-d-ing spellers on to them and on to others. Yeah , yeah , the winning games to be the WASTE .
Reply:Mormonism has historically been under the microscope ever since J Smith announced he found gold plates (He didn't mention the 'vision' until many years later), and the doctrine has been picked apart by scholars, scientists, and even Mark Twain. So, naturally, proponents of the church tend to be a bit testy about criticism of their church, and take it personally.

It's part of the culture within the church to demonstrate that they are the possessors of the only complete truth, and the rest of the world is gravely mislead. This leads some younger members to act like they're in an exclusive country club, and "nanner nanner" to you. Hopefully these kids will grow up and will stop alienating people.

Take it with a grain of salt. There's more important things to worry about.
Reply:Maybe we just get tired of being bashed all the time... there are so many misconceptions about the church, it's just hard to always let things "roll off" our shoulders, we are humans too.

We are constantly told we are "going to hell" by other's because of our beliefs...which really, no one has the authority or right to tell another where they are going when they die. We are not the judge here or in the next life.

Sorry you were mistreated.

Why are you asking this question on-line??? Get to a doctor and FAST!!!
Reply:My daughter had an infection on the inside of her eyelid, but I was under the impression that her contact lenses caused it. It sounds like you don't wear contacts, so-o-o-o, didn't the doctor give you a prescription or tell you what to do?
Reply:first stop peeling it! that could be making it worse. Next go to your optomitrist immediately. they can refer you to a specialist if they can not help it heal.

Have you ever seen a very thin woman with dark skin and long hair?

2009-11-20T03:13:00.001-08:00

She has very curly hair, long dirty finger nails and crooked thin nose.

If you have seen her, tell me where and when?

Have you ever seen a very thin woman with dark skin and long hair?
in india eh? did she have her feet pointing backwards. if she did then she is a pichal paeri. a female monster. its really popular here in the subcontinent.

even if she didnt, your description reminded me of descriptions of sorceresses and witches people used to tell me when i was little. in pakistan they are called churail or daian.

edit:

those tales i mentioned were the ones used to scare children from from leaving the home in the evening. you know like if you stay out after sunset the witch will come and eat you kinda tales.

Reply:People see spirits for many reasons and people aren't all that beautiful here on Earth so it come sto reason that after death they'll look the same.

Try not to fear or judge spirits by their visage and try to find their real meaning. I don't think souls travel around the world , so your husband probably saw someone and the friend probably saw a different spirit as India is full of thin women with long hair who probably fit that description.

She probably meant no harm, and could have been a spirit guide, relative from the long distant past, or a spirit passing through.
Reply:um, I've seen her, and she told me to tell you that she is coming to get you....soon.

"Wow!" the gils exclaimed."It must have been huge!Then what happened?"

The prostitute smiles:"I gave him a loan of £75".

Why do some white women think that people find their pale colorless skin and extremely thin lips beautiful...?

2009-11-20T03:12:00.000-08:00

Most men don't and I sure in the hell don't...I want big lips to kiss on and white women don't have any lips. I'm attracted to round behinds and brown skin and white women don't have either of those , so I date mainly black women and puerto rican women because I get all those qualities in one package....

I chose to broaden my herizons and go for the more exotic.

Reply:Because most people are not as ignorant as you and they realize that a person is only as beautiful as their soul. What you choose to value is your choice.

Reply:I guess to everyone his own. I date white men a lot, and I dont usually go for the ones who have very thin lips.. That is sooooo UNATTRACTIVE to me.

PIMPLES

Pimples is a unique skin disorder.Pimples are lesions that occur when the skin’s pores are obstructed or infected.They can form for a variety of reasons.However,the mechanism involved in causing some pores to collapse and block drainage of natural oils is not really understood. Pimples may also crop up for genetic reasons. It is not clear how it can be inherited from one’s parents, but studies do indicate a high occurrence of pimples in children whose parents had it,too.

The pimples associated with adolescence almost certainly occur because of hormonal changes that take place during puberty. Both males and females get an overdose of the male hormone testosterone during this period,causing excessive generation of sebaceous fluids that invariably cause pimples.

GIVEN BELOW ARE A FEW SIMPLE HOME REMEDIES TO FIGHT PIMPLES.

1.The most basic form of pimple prevention is hygiene and preventive skin care. Regular washing of the affected areas with mild soap is a must.The soap need not necessarily contain any chemicals designed to prevent pimples .However, face washing should not be overdone or the skin will become dehydrated .

2.Care should be taken on makeup,moisturizers and other skin care products.If these products are oil based,it would just make the problem worse. Use water based products instead.

3.Generally we rub, press or squeeze our pimples.Don’t when we do this,we risk spreading the bacteria to other areas.

4.Lemon juice diluted in water can be applied externally because of its antiseptic

quality.

5.Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.

6.Vitamin A tablets are also a natural and effective cure. Vitamin A promotes healthy skin.

7.Before bathing, apply a mixture of fresh tomato pulp, honey and rose-water to your face and keep for twenty minutes before washing off.

8.Juice of raw papaya is the best treatment for pimples.Apply fresh juice of raw papaya on pimples and get a good result.

9.Directly rub potato slices all over the face, helps to get rid of blemishes and

pimple scar.

10.Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices.

11.Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars.

12.Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, salads, fresh juices, fish and

yogurt.These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.

13.Another overnight home remedy for pimples is to put a dab of toothpaste on it to help dry it out. Calamine lotion also will have the same drying effect.

14.Pound orange peel with water and apply to affected areas.

15.Another useful remedy for pimples is zinc. Which can be taken in a dose of 50 mg daily for a month and then reduce the dose.

16.You can clean your skin with apple cider vinegar as an overnight home pimple remedy.

17.Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash.

Finally,certain medications may temporarily alter the hormonal changes prevalent during adolescence and cause pimple outbreaks. If this is the case, a simple adjustment in medication may be all that is required.
Reply:Have you tried clearsil???
Reply:Hmm are you stressed out at all? Using any new products (including new laundry detergent, fabric softener, etc.)? Have you recently gone on a multivitamin/supplements--that did it to me. I'd buy an acne spot treatment like Oxy ($5). If I were you, and this persists, i'd see a dermatologist--adult acne can be caused by different reasons than teenage acne, and often the same treatments don't work. I'd switch to a better cleanser and start moisturizing with a light/oil-free one with SPF.

I squeezed my skin, and it was dry, so a thin top layer of skin came off. Now the area is red. Help?

2009-11-20T03:11:00.002-08:00

I was sorta scratching my face, not paying attention. My skin was dry and some skin peeled off. It left a fairly big red mark that looks kinda like a burn. It hurts. Do you think it will scar? Will Neosporin help?

I squeezed my skin, and it was dry, so a thin top layer of skin came off. Now the area is red. Help?
You could use neosporin, but don't mess with the area. That way it will heal with no scarring. Alot of the redness should be gone by morning.
Reply:yes, neosporin will help. keep it in open air and it will heal faster. I dont think it will scar since its just the top layer of skin that would shed away anyway naturally
Reply:For dry skin, use a creamy cleanser to melt away dirt. Leave it on your skin before sweeping it away with cotton wool. Splash cold water onto your face to clean and refresh your skin. Use a thick cream moisturizer to seal in as much moisture as possible and have a refreshing feel.check out http://tipsfromruby-skincare.blogspot.co...

Only answer this if you have a tattoo on your ribcage AND inner arm or another area where the skin is thin?

i have a half sleeve and i was wondering if the ribcage would hurt as much as getting my inner arm done. my inner arm hurt like hell.

Only answer this if you have a tattoo on your ribcage AND inner arm or another area where the skin is thin?
well think about it. you have a organs underneath your ribcage. yes it will
Reply:It is painful, but does not hurt for me. If you thought that the inner arm hurt, then this will hurt a lot. I had the inner arm done and liked the feeling, same with every other part I've gotten tattoo-ed.
Reply:It seems to hurt twice as bad! All depending if you have thick or thin skin around your ribs! When the needles go over the ribs, it seems to vibrate or whatever and it hurts!

But if you have a high pain tolerance..you might be ok! LOL
Reply:the ribcage is supposed to be one of, if not THE most painful place on your body to tattoo
Reply:Yea ribcage is sensitive! One of my tattoos is on my foot and it hurt really bad. Rib's and feet are probably the worst places to get them. But if you take the pain it's totally worth it in the long run. Most tattoo places also have numbing cream now. I didnt have it for mine but it really would have helped!
Reply:i have tats on the tops of my feet, which is kinda like the ribcage- in that it is sensitive and thin skinned, but from friends with ribcage tattoos i hear that it hurts like hell! if you've got a little chub over the ribs i hear it helps, but if you're skin and bones, you're screwed. good luck!
Reply:yes, however, it all depends on your pain tolerance. if your inner arm hurt like hell, them your ribcage will as well.

all i can suggest is that when you go in, get as relaxed as possible because you will in a uncomfortable spot for a while.
Reply:I thought so too. My inner arm tattoo was very unpleasant. Rib area work was worse for me, much worse. It bites and never seems to loosen up. Although painful, I still think it was worth it.

I have thin hair, pale skin and circles covered by coverstick?

Does the thin piece of skin break on the head of the penis?

I’m not sure what you referred with “the thin piece of skin” you mentioned.

If it’s the foreskin -know that- it won’t break because its task just is to move to and fro uncovering the head. In the case, you said that because your foreskin is too tight around head and you even feel pain moving it, then you have a common syndrome called “Phimosis”, easy to heal anyway.

OK?

Just how thin is the skin of Y!A users in the Elections section?

As thin as an onion if you say anything against Obama .

Not thin at all. Just getting pissed off that there are no questions that doesn't have an insult thrown in.
Reply:Pretty thin indeed, just try to ask or answer anything that is contrary to their political stance
Reply:Seems to be a lot of hate. I think its primarily teenage rebellion.
Reply:As thin as Obama's plan.
Reply:As thick as Bush's head.
Reply:Sometimes it is not thin skin it is an inability to use logic and reasoning. Sometimes the Obama supporters come across as having thin skin but it is really a lack of intelligence to use logic so they resort to emotions and this comes across as being thin skinned when it is really just a low IQ issue not a thin skin issue.
Reply:Even with a relatively 'neutral' question such as yours, people just can't resist to throw a 'dig' at whatever political affiliation is not theirs.... so sad and incredibly exhausting!
Reply:Some people get real angry on here, I`m voting for what I believe in, I try not to answer some of the ugly questions.

But you`re right it does get pretty thin.
Reply:Quite thin indeed! All of my violations have come from this section.
Reply:Pretty thin and sometimes really petty!

When you perceive elections in that light, as do I, then it is not surprising that discussions about elections become a little touchy. If you want elections to be all civil, you don't understand them.
