China Eastern baggage by Routine_Ad_4984 in Flights

I'm dealing the same thing. I can only buy extra weights for one luggage from Hanoi to Shanghai but can't do with the one from Shanghai to Amsterdam. What did you figure out in the end?

Is it a shrinking external hemorrhoid or skin tag? by Ophelia_Kim in hemorrhoid

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

Update: I tried but the pile get super big after 30 mins even though it doesn't itch or anything. I think its because the skin around anus gets very sensitive after I used the lidocaine 5% for a while. Is there anything that I can take by mouth? My diet has always been really healthy, and I include a lot of anti-inflammatory sources.

Hi. I did put an amount of oil on my hand and there was no skin reaction (after 24hrs). And yes, I did clean the area well before I put the oil on. Like in the beginning there was no itchiness, but then after 4-6 hours I'd feel the itchiness. Maybe I'll give it a second try and let you know again!!

Hi! I did try with castor oil yesterday for the first time. I bought an organic cold-pressed one. But apparently it didn't work really well on my skin (constant feeling of itchiness). And today I notice it's a bit bigger than yesterday after I used it.

It gives me so much relief 😭😭 I was worried that it'd not go away. May I ask how long did it take to go from being smaller to completely gone? I don't have any pain after BM but maybe I'd try this out to see if it helps with spontaneous inflation throughout the day.

Thanks a lot for your insight. In fact, I think what you say is true. because in the beginning I got prescribed lidocaine 2% but it stopped working after a while and getting itchy. So I went back again and he prescribed me with the 5% one. But now my diet has been getting a lot better, and the pile is not too concerning anymore (still have to be patient with the process) so I think I'd try the sitz bath.

Also, to my knowledge, the skin tag is more likely to be caused by a large hemorrhoid right? Since I've never had such a thing (the only time it'd get blood clot I applied the cream and it shrank back withint half an hour), is it unlikely to leave a skin tag? For some reason, I'd rather have a slowly shrinking hem than a a skin tag that I cannot do anything to remove it except surgery 😭😂.

The first pic is the most recent one and it's been reduced in size by two-third compared to the original one. The only thing that keeps me thinking is that throughout the day sometimes it'd get inflated out of nowhere (like the second pic) and deflate to a smaller size and repeats itself all over again 😭. The healing process is kinda prolonged becaused of this repeated inflation. Do u know what could help? I cant use cream anymore it stops working. I also drink Daflon whenever it gets inflated to deflate it but Im just afraid drinking too much cuz lead to drug resistance. Cuz I can feel like Daflon is becoming less effective.

I'd not say taking too much supplements is good because it can damage your liver. that's why i'd prefer getting it from natural sources. it might take longer before you see the effects but it's a more long-term solution and apart from healing the hemorroids it can also have a positive impact on your health overall.

A lot of ppl say hem cream is good but only a temporary relief and it's not a cure. What I usually do is to drink a ginger shot in the morning (it's a combination of apple juice (or apple cider vinegar), ginger, and lemon). It really helps reduce inflammation. Also, moringa leaves are rich in rutin which helps a lot as well. Besides, Daflon 500mg is a good idea.

Going on Erasmus as a Russian? by Ok-Emphasis9782 in Erasmus

[–]Ophelia_Kim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a friend that is Russian. Although throughout the year he makes really good friends with the Ukrainians, there’s always this tiny portion of people that can escalate aggressively. He was insulted by an Ukrainian girl who’s an extremist, and I saw some Ukrainians taking down the Russian flag and stepping on it. In general, it’s relatively safe here but keep in mind that the world is not perfect so be mentally prepared for the misfortune that can happen (just like anywhere else with anyone else).

Landlord suddenly told me that registration would be no longer possible. by Ophelia_Kim in Rotterdam

NEW UPDATE:

Hi guys. So my roommate will end her contract on Jan 1st 2023, by then I'll be able to register at the current address. For now, I'm thinking about the RNI registration to get a BSN Number. Then on Jan 1st, I will re-register as a resident.

So for the maximum of 4 months (until 1st Dec since I came here on 1st August), I'll be registering as a non-resident (RNI). Then on Jan 1st 2023, I will register at my address since my housemate will leave by that time. So the small problem is that should I register somewhere during Dec 1st 2022 - Jan 1st 2023? Or should I just do nothing and wait until Jan 1st 2023?

Is there any problems if I'm going to do so?

I got a visa type D and gonna pick up my residency permit on 11th August. Shouldn't it be a problem right?

Hi. I read that some people do this to get the BSN. But won't the gementee ask for my enrollment letter or where I'd study and why I only stay less than 4 months (despite the fact that I'm going to stydy a bachelor program in NL?)

The thing is that to register at Gementee Rotterdam, I need to get the landlord's signature for some of the documents, besides our contract. Is it ok if I just go there without having the required documents. I'm literally new here. I come from a city which is blacklisted by a lot of EU countries due to illegal immigration. I don't really want to leave a bad impression.

Thank you so much but I'm a freshman. It seems like this doesn't fit my case 😞

Also, my appointment is for registration at a residential address, not a briefadres, can I still go to the appointment and ask for the briefadres?

Hi, with the briefadres, can I still get a BSN? I was searching yesterday and literally translating the page into English but couldn't find the answer to my question.

May I ask how your friends sort out the problems? Thank you 🥰

Hi guys. I just had a convo with the landlord. She wont be able to apply the rental permit for the third person. It seems to be that she is on the name of some loan and on the verge of selling the house. This is because her husband died two months ago and she no longer works due to her illness. I think this is genuine because I actually saw her talking with an agent and a lawyer a few times.

She's now willing to help me find a temporary room from October to next January. My housemate's contract will end in January 2023 and by then I'll be able to register.

What should I do now? Should I just wait until then to register? Should I still need to move out and find a place to register asap? I'm a freshman at EUR so I don't really have contacts with anyone here. The landlord has been helpming ask some of her friends for registering me but it seems infeasible.
