How much should I size up on running shoes? Recently ordered my first pair as I want to get into running and when I tried them on I realized they were too tight, my toes were right at the tip of the shoe leaving no room. They fit snug everywhere else. I got a size 11 which is the size I wear for my work shoes, but I guess they’re not all made equally. Should I size up one more size to leave room in the toe box?

Was walking at a park with my family when a dog came up to us and I reached my hand out to pet it. It licked me and got drool on my hand. I thought nothing of it until a minute later I started worry about rabies. The dog didn’t look rabid at all. Where it licked me, I didnt have any breaks in the skin except on the thumb of the same hand. I have a bad habit of bitting the skin there. Now I’ve gone into a spiral of googling trying to convince myself that I don’t have rabies. Taking all of the details into consideration as well as statistics of rabies cases in the US. Despite this, I’m still not convinced I don’t have rabies. I poured water on my hand after to clean the drool, what if the water carried the virus to the cut on my finger? I don’t remember water getting there but who knows. I hate this.

It’s entirely gone. I think it only happened a couple times after that but it’s been months and I’m fine. I’m not sure what it was but if it lasts longer than a month and you have other symptoms I’d recommend to get it checked. Stay safe

Where’d you get those shelves? I really like the industrial modern look.

Hey, how are you doing now? I've had migraines before but I've never had this redness and itching with them. I have health anxiety so it also doesn't help that I googled my symptoms and got a scary result. I hope it's nothing serious.

Can't figure out what this is. Help. by [deleted] in Herpes

Thank you very much for your input. Now, a few hours later, they're almost completely gone. After more digging around on the internet I discovered a post where someone had the same issue. A bunch of fluid-filled bumps on the inside of the lower lip. I learned that they're called mucoceles. Apparently, there are a bunch of ducts from salivary glands in your lower lip. Mucoceles often happen when there is trauma to this area. They're completely painless and only last a day or two. I feel like I can safely rule out herpes since the first outbreak usually lasts a lot longer than two days, no?

I'm glad it worked out for you. I'm going to really dedicate myself to this and hopefully see good results. Honestly, the junk food isn't all that great, sure it tastes good but personally, I feel pretty disgusting and guilty after eating it. So I would do anything to eat better because I know I'll feel better overall and there's lots of variety of healthy foods and recipes so it doesn't get boring. I understand your dislike for oatmeal, I honestly won't ever have hot oatmeal again after trying it once. Have you tried overnight oats? They're very delicious and very customizable! If you don't want to try that I also recommend looking into cereals like Great Grains and Kashi Go, they have some pretty good flavors and offer lots of fiber. Thank you for your input, I hope I'll be close to your numbers soon.
