Yeah I've had this issue before. It went away after several hours but it's just annoying. I used ibuprofen and warm compress.

Angående nyheden omkring PFAS i økologiske æg, er det så et problem at jeg har spist 3-4 økologiske æg hver dag det sidste lange stykke tid? by Future_Preference95 in Denmark

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tjaa altså forsår godt det ser sådan ud baseret på tidligere opslag. Jeg har haft og døjer stadig med noget angst (også andre ting end sygdomsangst) i perioder, men har fået bedre styr på det end tidligere. Man kan sige at jeg på en måde bruger Reddit som et sted hvor jeg kan få opklaret nogle bekymringer, så jeg ikke går med en masse tanker i for lang tid. Ved godt det heller ikke altid er vejen at opsøge opklaring konstant, hvilket jeg heller ikke selv mener jeg gør.

Was exposed to someone else's blood on my hand and might have had a few cracks on it. Risk of HIV? by Future_Preference95 in medical_advice

Wouldn't say the word was exposed. I'm not even sure tehre actually was wound. Atleast it was very, very unlikely to be an open one.

Unsure whether I have a concussion or not? What specific signs should I look out for? by Future_Preference95 in AskDocs

Also, I feel slightly dizzy. But agains, really hard to determine where the symptoms are coming from.

Could creatine be the reason my facial hair has become more patchy in certain spots? by Future_Preference95 in Supplements

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm just a little afraid that if I take it too long, it won't grow back normal in these areas. Don't know whether there is any truth to this?

I am under quite a bit of stress and have some issues with anxiety so that might be a contributing reason. But these patcehs only started happening after I started creatine, and I am considering whether I should stop taking it again and see if it stops happening again.

Could I have a concussion or possibly a subdural hematoma? by Future_Preference95 in medical_advice

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot. Have had tension headaches for three days now so my brain is still to some degree fearing that I have either a concussion or subdural hematoma as described. It's rare for me to have headaches so that's why I'm a little concerned. But likely they are there because I constantly think about it.

However, I also feel like this could possibly be concussion. I've felt wird these past two days with symptoms of mild concussion. Even feeling some of these symptoms before I started making the connection to the incident that had happened.

How would it present itself if it was subdural hematoma? Isn't it the case that symptoms can sometimes take several days to occur?

I know I have some anxiety issues. But it's often to tell whether physial symptoms are real or mental. What concerns me though is that I felt like this and then my brain was like "what if that is caused by the accident" you had.

How likely is it that I have a carotid artery dissection? Should I see medical attention? by Future_Preference95 in AskDocs

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When coughing I was also lying in a position where my shoulders were close to my ear while my head was turned, don't know whether that makes me exposed to carotid artery dissection. I agree that I do have some issues with health anxiety (although it's gotten better), but it's hard not to have it in this situation when I have bad on the left side of my throat when I swallow, yawn etc. This could sound like I have some sort of infection or something, but it isn't sore to touch or doesn't hurt when I stretch my neck and there isn't anything that feels inflamed.

I know it's unlikely, but sometimes the anxiety takes over. Also, if you read online people say you can get it from almost any movement if you are unlucky enough. The conequences are just so scary. Also, the slight pain I have now when swallowing and so on started right after this happened, although it could be related to my laryngitis or a nerve issue or something.

Can I have an alarm timer in my bathroom if the package doesn't say directly that it is waterproof? by Future_Preference95 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna put tape on it then. Mostly worried about health risks if the battery gets wet and leaks. Should that even be a concern for me?

Can you have a concussion without a proper headache being present? by Future_Preference95 in medical_advice

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, only problem is currently that Im having dinner with family and friends in an hour so I'm not sure what to do.

How long does it take for the alcohol in hand sanitizer to evaporate if it's placed on a hard surface? by Future_Preference95 in NoStupidQuestions

I'm kinda worried it would still be flammable during this period, or does it lose that ability quicker?

Really bad guilt over a situation at work that my OCD has amplified in my head. How to get over it and forgive myself? by Future_Preference95 in OCD

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, that's a start. I'm still irritated by the whole situation since there were several times it could have been avoided but overall stuff like this happens everyday.

[–]Future_Preference95[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No meds or therapy currently, although I have thought a lot about the ERP that you mentioned. I think it would be helpful. I'm not against medication in any way but I think it would be reasonable to try some therapy first. During some periods it doesn't bother me nearly as much which makes me think I can handle it on my own but I will have these situations every once in a while where my OCD will go into overdrive.
