Aftermath Of Mole Removal

Can you breastfeed after having cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen) for mole removal?

Had 6 frozen today on my back and still breastfeeding my 18 month old. The dr used quite a bit this time because they were frozen once before and never fell off. He knows I'm breastfeeding but he's the kind of dr that you have to remind about these things or he forgets and I didn't think about it till I got home. Its the weekend and too late to call his office. Has anyone else experienced this and breastfed? Not really looking for opinions, just need answers and or experience. Thanks!

Is there supposed to be a tiny hole after wisdom teeth removal? I've had my wisdom teeth out for 5 days and my doctor just took out my stitches. Is this normal?

Yup absolutely normal !it's an extraction socket ,which basically the place in the bone that was reserved for that tooth .Now the bone in the region will remodel in the area ,it takes about a month for this process to be completed.Now meanwhile ,i advise you to keep an eye on that area and save it from infection .For this you have to maintain meticulous oral hygiene brushing and rinsing daily,but never over that area.Avoid having food that can get lodged in that area,If it still happens by chance please visit a dentist and get that cleaned .Also keep an eye for any signs of infection that may arise -swollen tonsils or tenderness in the regionThe swelling and pain you experience should subside with 1 week of the extraction processAny foul odour or salty taste in the mouth ,our dischareShould be taken seriouslyYou shouldn't develop a fever ,or any ringing in your ear on that side.Also ,don't smoke.

When is wisdom teeth removal necessary?

Thanks for your question regarding the reasons associated with the removal of wisdom teeth. Wisdom teeth, or 3rd molars, are the last teeth to erupt and typically do so between the ages of 17-21.  They often have to be removed due to lack of space necessary to properly accommodate them with the rest of the person's dentition.  Over the ages, the human upper and lower jaws have decreased in size while the number of teeth, for the most part, have stayed the same.  This is the main reason for the improper eruption of wisdom teeth.   That being said, some individuals have normally erupted wisdom teeth that function properly and cause no problems.  Problems associated with abnormal wisdom tooth eruption include:- Infection- Tooth Decay- Periodontal (Gum) Disease- Development of Cysts and Tumors- Risk of Damage to Adjacent/Opposing Teeth- Interference with jaw movementsWisdom teeth may not develop and be absent.  They are the most common tooth in the mouth to do so.  While some individuals may develop all four wisdom teeth, others may develop three, two, one or zero. I strongly suggest you seek the advice of a general dentist or oral and maxillofacial surgeon regarding the need for wisdom tooth removal. Hope that helps.

How do I remove spots of chicken pox from my face?

This is a revised version of a previous post and should help you greatly.  I am going to assume you have normal skin.    Aloe vera gel is the best natural skin healer and the fresh plant leaf will help a lot to reverse the scars as well.  My suggestion is to buy some aloe gel, a good one, and use that right after you washed your skin.  Use it under your lotion after it dries.  The fresh leaf is good for night time and can be left on all night!Here are some suggestions.  Every day wash face well and apply lemon juice and honey and leave on for 10 minutes. Wash off and pat dry. Apply some aloe vera gel. You can also use a fresh aloe vera leaf. Peel the outer skin off and use the gel inside. Rub this gel into the scars and all over the face and neck. Leave on overnight or rinse off after 15 minutes.Apply some Vitamin E  oil. Take a Vitamin E capsule and prick the capsule with a needle or pin and squeeze out the oil. Rub into the scars and the face all over. Use this every night. In the daytime. Do the same thing but cover the face all over with a moisturizer with sunscreen SPF 25 or higher! This is very important. Do not go outside even on a cloudy day without sunscreen as the scars will get worse without protection.  You can also buy some glutathione soap or kojic acid soap. These soaps are very drying so rub the oil in well after washing the area with these. Both these soaps have a bleaching effect and will lighten the scars. Make sure to rub aloe and oil into the area afterwards. You can also use almond oil instead of the capsules. Almond oil contains vitamin E.Once a week wash your whole body and face with a scrubbing soap or cleanser to exfoliate or remove surface dead skin.  The new skin underneath will respond and heal a lot faster and will look smooth and glowing.

I had 2 moles on my face removed almost 3 years ago. What can I do to rid of the remininsce from them?

I heard on a show run by doctors , it was a question and answer segment, that for fading discoloring on the skin, apply vinegar. This is supposed to take the color down drastically to be skin tone later.
It can't hurt to try it, not as expensive as fade cremes. You don't need a lot, apply it with a q tip on the areas you want only. Let it soak in, do this a few days and see by a week if there is improvement. Once a day dabbing should be adequate. Doesn't look like you have big areas to do.
