I normally don't take medicine when I have cough.
But this time around, I needed to because my cough just won't heal.
I'm taking Carica Syrup. 2 tbsps before eating. I hope to be okay after 3 days of taking it to finally get rid of this cough.

Boil
One Friday afternoon, I noticed a pimple on my lower arm, near my elbows. Thinking it was a pimple, I was thankful that it didn't grew on my face.
However, it became so painful as couple of days went by. Another thing I noticed was that, it was reddening. Then, I suspected it was a boil. I hated having it, because I already hadone before and it was one of the worst things I ever experienced which also caused my keloid. I thought that I developed it because of the improvement reaction of Barley which I was intaking for a couple of days prior its growth.
It took 7 days before it became ripe. Imagine, I didn't took any medicine on the first 4 days after suspecting and confirming it was real boil. It was too painful and my entire arm was swelling but still I went to work. Only on the 4th day, I started taking 2 tablets of Acetaminophen (Pain Reliever) every 6 hours; and only on the 6th day, I started taking antibiotics because, I felt another one growing on my knee. On the same day, my Papa popped out some of the puss out of my elbow because I really can't take the pain anymore. Apparently, it wasn't still ripe enough, the eye of the boil was taken away only on the 7th day. And oh, it was sooooooooo painful but worth the relief! I swear. I asked my Papa to press all out the puss so that I won't have it again next time.When he pressed my arm, oh, that was terrible. I was crying like a child.
My mama told me, that I should have started taking antibiotics the moment I felt it was boil.
While my papa told me that I should have just rubbed vicks vaporub on it that moment I suspected it was a boil and it will no longer develop any longer.
Whew! I didn't know those tricks! If and only if!
The best trick of all, I will never ever eat street foods again. I recently craved for street foods like barbecue, orange egg, etc... and maybe those were the cause of this suffering. I should inject my mind that no matter how hard I try to be as normal as others like eating such stuff, I shouldn't because I'm very susceptible to diseases and my skin is very sensitive.
I'll eat more fruits and veggies instead. Cleansing diet would be great!

Stye
Stye is a painful red bump located at the base of an eyelash or under or inside the eyelid.
Months ago, I had this. Actually I first had the internal then after a month the external one.
Symptom:
1. Super Painful eye
What to do when you suspect you have stye?
1. Cold compress ONLY. When I tried giving the affected eye a hot compress, it became swollen.
Medication:
1. Since it was swelling badly, I needed to take antibiotics for a week.
2. Maxitrol eyedrop was recommended by the ophalmologist (1 drop, 3x a day)
3. Hot compress every 15 minutes.
Swelling subsided after 3-4 days after medication.

Keloid Solution
Keloid- a type of scar which is firm, rubbery lesions or shiny, fibrous nodules, and can vary from pink to flesh-coloured or red to dark brown in colour.
I actually have two keloids already that flattened over years.
Unfortunately, I gained another one because of an accident that happened in our kitchen.
But when I used CONTRACTUBEX, the spot certainly flattened and not as visible as before I treated it.
This is what I used. I bought it in a local drugstore. Although, the ointment was too pricey. It was worth it.

Flattening was fast enough, because my other keloids took several years before they flattened. Thanks, Contractubex! You're now a bestfriend of mine!
