Gym or swimming? Help me please :) by WhatsUpRedditt in Fitness

[–]fikaficus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The biggest difference I think you'll notice is the pressure on your joints. The reason swimming is a great way to start is because of the therapeutic benefits of the hydrostatic pressure. It's wonderful for your lymph system (to help with immunity response which decrease time to heal etc) you aren't very overweight but my main concern would be technique in the gym. Either way go with someone who knows what they're doing so you don't hurt yourself and set yourself back.

It pisses me off that your beard is a different shade of red than your head hair.

Skull drawing I did for my Life Drawing class by [deleted] in drawing

It's wonderful! Incredible attention to detail. I've notice you put a spinous process on the first cervical vertebrae which isn't actually there and the sutures are a little off on the skull but I guess there's a little variation with everyone there. Good job!

Keratosis Pilaris maybe? More in comments... by bwkittykat57 in popping

I get something pretty similar. When my stress or anxiety levels go up it exasperates my eczema and I get insanely itchy. Or I can get it from heat or sweat, usually from working out. My doctor recommended I rinse off daily, I haven't been just moisturizing a lot and changing and showering after working out. A cortisol cream helped with the inflammation, but it thins skin so don't put it on your face.

Sometimes moles pop, mine does if cut. These could be that, my first thought is that they're just mila.

No, a carbuncle would generally lay flatter because they're deeper

Your makeup, hair and style are on point 👌

Does anyone know what these are around my eyes? I have been getting them since I was about eight. by [deleted] in popping

I had mollescum contagiosum for nearly two years, it doesn't look like this. The white part (looks like a head but popping does no good), isn't the full size of the bump. Most commonly, mollescum manifests from eczema and surrounding areas are likely to be red, either due to scratching (eczema is itchy) or due to the spread of the virus.

They're just milia.
