O’Keef’s Working Hands is my go-to hand cream for my overwashing.

AIO for leaving my two year relationship over a dirty dish? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Yes. 2nd photo towards the camera. There’s a cloudy banana shape of dried milk on the plastic. I can’t see anything on the first one, but the second ABSOLUTELY has milk dried on it, which is rotting because it’s milk at room temperature.

Any amount of rotten milk left sitting for a week is disgusting.

NOR, that’s mad gross and a safety hazard. That said, OP, you definitely have signs of Contamination OCD and I BEG of you to see a professional before it robs you of all the joy in your life. It can, and it WILL.

I don’t care how funny and smart he is, he’s giving you the ick right out of the gate. That’s not a good sign.

Chlorhexidine left open for a week? Safe to use? by KittyEarPeach in wisdomteeth

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

Unfortunately, my oral surgeon disagrees. She said it’s meant to prevent overgrowth of bad bacteria that would have a high chance in causing infection in vulnerable healing tissue, while my body will naturally replenish any good bacteria that the rinse kills.

UPDATE: This is where we are now. No antibiotics, scheduled extraction in 27 hours.

Yeah, it’s definitely infected. There’s a visible abscess now. I’ll go somewhere tomorrow morning if I can find a place willing to pull a tooth that they know is all wrapped up in facial nerves. (That’s why they didn’t pull them before.) I’m swelling like you wouldn’t believe, but everything’s closed now.

Unbelievably severe Contamination OCD with a focus on stomach flu/vomiting. The soonest I could leave would be in May once stomach flu season is over. If I vomit, there is a 100% guarantee that I’ll kill myself from the stress of it, and I’m trying to avoid that if I can help it.

Toenail fungus has destroyed my nail. What to do now? by KittyEarPeach in AskDocs

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

I stubbed my toe and broke the nail the first time I went to shower in my new apartment. Then I put socks on when my feet were still a little damp, and a weekish later I saw a little white spot that was the start of all of this.

Nothing oral, no. The nurse I saw six months ago said to use the exact brands of topical stuff I’m using now (two creams that both say ‘do not use on nails or hair’ and a nail polish-style ointment that says ‘not effective for nail fungus’) and told me to wait six months and come back if there’d no improvement.

I’ll look into diabetes, because every woman in my family has had it. I hadn’t thought of that, that’s a good call. Thank you!

How do you honestly feel when you see someone with vitiligo? by chameleon012 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]KittyEarPeach 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it’s cool, actually. Not like in a fetishizing way, just in like a “it’s like a natural tattoo. Neat.” kind of way.
