When a body repairs a wound, it often uses a fibrous scar tissue, or fibroblast, to do so. This scar tissue looks different than other skin because it is reinforced. Your body does this reinforcing in an attempt to keep your skin from tearing open again. It is unable or perhaps unwilling to take into account how a large, shiny, pink lump of flesh on your face is going to affect your emotional state. But then, your body is the one that started this whole pimple thing, isn’t it? The answer to acne scarring is not simple. Certain people seem to have a certain genetic predisposition to acne. But often, acne or pimples are made worse by not treating them correctly. And ultimately the pimple scars, for the most part, could have been prevented. You should know that I am not a doctor. And serious cases of acne, the ones that cause scarring, should be taken to a dermatologist. The dermatologist will offer some advice and a few different courses of treatment. This article is a collection of information designed to help you make an informed decision—not to make the decision for you.

Though gout is one of the most treatable forms of arthritis, it is also extremely painful. Most sufferers would agree that the above artist knew what he was doing. An acute gout attack is not unlike having a small, moustachioed demon chewing on you. Sufferers complain that even the weight of clothes or a bed sheet will drive them to madness. Most of the time, gout attacks the large joint of the big toe (as pictured), but it can show up in the hands, feet, and elbows. Recently, because of a family member’s gout outbreak, I’ve been researching how to get rid of gout. I found that gout pain is caused by uric acid that has crystalized and lodged in a joint. Individuals with gout either produce too much uric acid or excrete too little. I also found that, though there are no gout cures, there are many practical ways to manage gouty arthritis. Mostly, it’s about making likestyle changes. For example, to get rid of gout, most people will have to cut back on or completely abstain from alcohol. I would find this hard, but gout pain is a great motivator. Follow any link to learn more about the moustachioed gout demon, the gout diet, gout medications, and how to manage this painful disease.

Muscle cramps are the worst. I’ve never actually had one, not that I can remember (and according to everything I’ve read, I’d remember), but because I have a fully functioning imagination, I can say this to those of you who get muscle cramps: I’m so, so sorry. In fact, I’m so sensitive to the plight of the cramps-afflicted runner (or biker, or mother-to-be, or sleeper) that I want to help. Unfortunately, medical science has yet to provide solid support for any of its theories regarding what causes cramps or what can be done to prevent them. But theories abound anyway, many of them supported by a great deal of anecdotal evidence from doctors and patients who have succeeded in getting rid of cramps. So I’ve compiled the most common and seemingly logical techniques for both treating and preventing cramps in my latest article, “How to Get Rid of Cramps.” I hope you’ll take a look.
Sweet dreams and happy trails.

I used to think I was immune to poison oak. Last summer, after playing a round of disk golf, I found out otherwise. I had unknowingly walked through a large patch of poison oak, and because I was wearing shorts, I got the plant’s noxious oil, urushiol, all over my legs. The itching that comes with a poison oak rash is maddening. I searched everywhere for ways to keep from manually removing my dermis. Besides the itching, I was horrific to look at. During a large meeting at work, I caught a handful of collegues staring at my blisters. “Look, it’s pulsating,” I heard them whisper. Through my ordeal I’ve become something of an expert. I know that there are no medicines or treatments that will get rid of poison oak overnight; you have to let your skin heal. However, in my article on how to get rid of poison oak, you’ll learn about the most effective methods to soothe the rash, blisters, or hives that come with urushiol exposure. You can also learn what poison oak looks like; the effort of prevention is much easer than having to get rid of a poison oak rash.

When I was in the third grade, our elementry school suffered a pink eye outbreak that was nearly an epidemic. All of my friends had the typical pink eye symptoms: red, swollen eyes with a streak of revolting discharge here and there. I was heartbroken with envy. They got to stay home for a day or two while I tried repeatedly and unsuccessfully to fake it. With all the fussing with my eyes, I nearly gave myself a non-contagious form of pink eye. Twenty years later, I’m still waiting for my pink eye vacation days. Sigh. Most people would rather learn how to get rid of pink eye than how to get it. After much research, I know how to do both. I know that you’ll need antibiotics for contagious pink eye. Beyond that all you can do is seek pink eye treatments to ease symptoms until your body heals. Read my latest article on how to get rid of pink eye to learn about strategies to survive this ordeal with your sanity intact.
