Miranel Antifungal Treatment, Clinical Strength 1 oz (28 g)

Miranel Antifungal Treatment, Clinical Strength 1 ozUsed this product for awhile and it seemed to "arrest" the fungus. Finally went to the internal three month treatment that seemed to reach a cure. Residual effect of the fungus caused me to use it again and it appears to have had the purpose I was looking for. Toe nails look nicer but growth of nail is very slow.

Too soon to tell results from Miranel. I went to a podiatrist as I had some thickening of a few of toenails and the tips of those toes were a little sore. I was surprised to hear I had toenail fungus because the nails did not look yellow and crusty like pictures I had seen on the web. He prescribed 40% Urea and told me to use Miranel. The Miranel box said it is not for nails, so I am somewhat confused as to why the dr. said to use it. I don't have athlete's foor as far as I can tell although web info says fungus and athlete's foot are related.

Anyway, I have been applying Miranel and Urea to my nails for about a month. My nails look different, are softer, and easier to trim, but I don't think the nails with the problem are fully cured yet. It's hard to tell because there is a whitish cast to them from both Urea and Miranel. I was told it would take about 3 or 4 months of using this treatment. Anyway, Miranel has a nice scent to it and comes with a brush to easily apply it so I don't mind using it.

I love cleaning up bloody messes with this kit! Actually no, I hate it. But this kit is fine and meets state requirements for such things. I will buy this again.

First Aid Only Water Jel Burn Jel Burn Relief, 4-Ounce Plastic Bottle (Pack of 3)

First Aid Only Water Jel Burn Jel Burn Relief, 4-Ounce Plastic BottleI had a nasty burn from a fry pan and it really helped. Wish you could find it in stores.

update 9-22-2011

Was working with a hot glue gun and high temp plastics. So the gun was on high. I had applied the glue and the project slipped. You can guess I grabbed it right at the glue point. Got on my left hand center finger on the side and tip including the fingernail. Burned like a son of a gun. I dropped the project and tried to get the glue to stick to my pants and pull it off as it was still hot. Only got it on my right hand on the bottom of a finger. I ran to the sink and put cold water on it and pulled off the glue. It was so bad I expected to pull off some skin. Got lucky I guess. Really hurt so I got my trusty burn gel and applied it to both fingers and did the "mommy it hurts" dance. In about 60 seconds most of the pain was gone. I'll have one hell of a deep blister including the fingernail it looks like but man was I glad I had this stuff. Maybe next time I'll do the smart thing and wear Kevlar gloves. Never had a blister under a fingernail. Weird.

I think I'll go take a break and go to work on my homemade reactor. If you see a strange glow in Dallas Texas don't worry it's just me. LOL.

Oh another trick that both extends the shelf life and helps with burns. Put one in the refrigerator. Not the freezer. Hope this helps

This burn gel is excellent. Better than the usual green stuff for sunburns. Despite its strong smell, it relieves burns better than anything else I've tried. Highly recommended.

Nutramax Children's Characters Adhesive Bandages

Assorted ColorsI keep a first aid kit in my car and my purse/backpack. This means I'm always the one kids (and parents) come running to when they get hurt at practice, field trips, camping, etc. I run out of normal size bandages frequently and finally decided to look for a deal online. These bandages are a good deal, and they actually stick well, instead of immediately falling off like some other "cool" bandages. The kids like the designs too.

My husband carries these in his pocket first aid kid at work, and his coworkers like getting space bandages instead of boring ones. So I guess if you want to be popular in addition to being responsible and thrifty, these bandages will help.

My daughter loves band aids like most toddlers. She loves covering her boo boos and ours with them. I bought these because there were 100 per pack and because they do not have a NickJr or Disney characters on them. We ran out of the pack of 30 Mickey Mouse ones that cost the same amount quickly. Some of the children in her preschool do not watch NickJR or Disney so they prefer the children not wear anything to school with "Characters" on them. It distracts them from their activities.

I use a lot of "bandaids". These have planets and suns and stars on them, and they stay on. What more could you want in an adhesive bandage? I'm happy. If you don't like planets and stuff get a different kind.

My space-obsessed 5-year-old loves these so much he wants to wear them all the time. I eventually had to hide the box because he kept pulling them out and sticking them on himself like stickers. :) He actually gets excited when he gets an 'owie' now because he knows he gets to wear a space bandaid.

They are good quality and stick well. This is the exact same band-aid they use at our pediatrician's office.

These aren't the greatest bandages in the world in terms of sticking ability, but the price can't be beat, and the pattern is very appealing to kids. If my daughter hurts herself, the crying stops instantly when I suggest getting a stars and planets bandage out :)

Boericke & Tafel Sting Stop Soothing Gel

Sting Stop Insect Gel 1 OuncesI've used Sting Stop for approximately five years and have yet to find anything that works this well.

I get massive welts from mosquito bites and they tend to last for almost two weeks. If I put the Sting Stop on quickly, the bite will be completely gone within 24 hours. It stops the itching about 10 minutes after application as well, sometimes even faster. I use it for my children and even my elderly mother whom was recently stung by a bee on her thumb. I applied this right away and it helped her. Now she's a believer.

Within the last two weeks I was bitten by a fire ant. The inflamation was gone, once again, within 24 hours. My foot felt like it was on fire but not for as long as it would have had I not used the Sting Stop. The location of the actual bite looked like a little pimple afterward (now gone), but I can handle that.

My only complaint is the smell. I can't stand the smell of citronella. However, I rather have the smell for a short period of time than the bite for several days.

We have been using Sting Stop for 5-6 years, and in my humble opinion, this is the best stuff on earth!

I have very fair, sensitive skin which reacts in spades to stings and bites. Mosquito bites on me if left untreated swell up and cause big, red, splotchy welts that harden and last for two weeks, perpetually itching and making me crazy throughout the duration of that healing time. However, with Sting Stop, as long as I get it on in the first 30 minutes, it works fast to stop the swelling and itching. And if I get it on in the first few minutes after a bite, it's as if I didn't get bit at all no swelling, no itching, no reaction whatsoever. So as you can imagine, I keep this stuff stashed everywhere upstairs, downstairs, in the garage, the car, baby stroller, my purse, at the grandparents house, etc.!

The effectiveness of this product has held true for all members of our family three generations worth. It immediately stops the itching at any time of application after being bit, but if you also want to stop the swelling, then the sooner you can get it applied, the better.

Additionally, last summer, our 2-yr old daughter was stung by a bee. This was the only remedy I treated her with and I was really impressed with it's effectiveness. By the time I could get her into the house, calmed down, and get the stinger removed, it had already started swelling up pretty good. However, once the Sting Stop was applied, the swelling and redness went away in an hour or so, and she never again complained about the sting hurting.

Boericke & Tafel products have served our family well over the years, and Sting Stop is a runaway favorite which even our preschoolers ask for by name when the skeeters come out! Seriously, this is good stuff!

I've been using sting stops on my children and myself for years. Just recently the store I was buying it from closed and I couldn't find it in any other stores. I noticed that if I apply it as soon as I notice the bite, the itching stops in a few minutes and within half an hour I can't even tell where the bite was. If it's applied hours later, it doesn't have as good an effect but it still stops the itching, it just doesn't take the inflamation away as well.

A bee decided to fly into my gardening glove while I had it off for 1 minute and when I put the glove back on, he stuck his stinger right in my forearm with quite a bit of his I-don't-like-you-touching-me venom. After a few choice words from my painful surprise, I went inside, pulled the stinger out of my forearm, got my first aid kit, and applied this SssstingStop Insect gel and put some Ledum Palustre 6X (Puncture Wounds, Stings, Bites) 250 Tablet under my tongue three time twenty minute apart. I have not been stung since a child and I had such a horrific reaction then, that my doctor insisted I carry an Epi-pen with me every where I went. After decades of purchasing new epi-pens when the old one expired after never using it, I was without an epi-pen so I was wondering if I would need to go to the emergency room but the reaction never did get worse than red swelling about the size of a silver dollar and I really hardly notice it at all. There is no expiration date on the tube and it looks a little funky and is probably old, but it still worked! I will buy a fresh one for the emergency kit and throw this away.

DuoDERM CGF Sterile Dressing - 4" x 4" - 5/Box

DuoDERM CGF Sterile Dressing - 4' x 4' - 5/BoxI have MS confined to a wheel chair and it helps keep a sore spot from becoming a wound too.

My elderly mother has very thin skin that tears easily, and she is somewhat accident-prone. A few months ago she had a 2 sq.in. scrape that tore away the top layer of skin. I was afraid it was going to take a very long time to heal so I put a Duoderm patch on it and arranged for a nurse to come check it out. The wound had already started healing before the nurse arrived a couple of days later! It only took about a month to be completely healed over. Recently, she had another minor accident that left a gash on her leg. I didn't have any patches so I dressed it with Telfa pads for a few days, without seeing a whole lot of improvement. I switched to the Duoderm patches when they arrived, and within 48 hours the wound had nearly closed -remarkably faster healing than when I was using the regular dressing. Needless to say, I learned my lesson. I will never run out of these again!

HazoGel Witch Hazel Gel - 5 oz. Bottle

Buy HazoGel Witch Hazel Gel - 5 oz. Bottle Now

I am a 57 year old female with (still) oily skin. This is a blessing in some ways, but can make finding skin care products difficult. I can use items geared toward much younger women (like Sea Breeze, etc.), but they can be drying and sometimes sting. Cosmetics geared to my age group are horrible -thick, goopy, gunky, greasy messes.

This product is perfect. It freshens, tones, tightens pores and cools the face without excessive drying or stinging. It also softens skin without any greasiness. There is very little fragrance, so men can use this without fear of a feminine perfumy odor.

It can feel a little sticky until it dries, but it dries very quickly.

If you need something that freshens, tones, tightens and cools, especially in the summer, without stinging and drying, without dripping, and without a strong fragrance try this. I think it's a wonderful product.

Bactine Original First Aid Liquid

Bactine Original First Aid Liquid, 4 OunceViroxyn cold sore (lip) treatment (desribed as a near miracle cure) has the exact same effective ingrediant in the exact same proportion as Bactine. But Viroxyn costs an arm and a leg! AND...Bactine adds a pain reliever! So, when you feel a cold sore coming on, soak a cotton ball with Bactine (instead of Viroxyn )and virorously rub on and around your budding cold sore (don't rub so hard as to break the skin). And don't ingest any! Then let that Bactine do its work. Your pain should diminish and your lip sore should heal much faster. And you didn't have to pay over $15 for a one time dose of Viroxyn (a cotton ball's worth). But, check your facts! Look up both Viroxyn and Bactine online and see for yourself! Also, you might want to augment your treatment with a zinc-based cold sore ointment too (I think Bactine may have an ointment like that).

Introduced in 1950, the year after I was born, BACTINE is one of those venerable consumer products that, unlike chocolate Flavor Straws and X-Ray Spectacles, has withstood the test of time because it works so well. Its use is limited to superficial injuries (minor cuts, scrapes, burns) of the upper skin layer, but it's surprisingly effective at diminishing pain and preventing infection. And one of its most attractive ancillary attributes is a clean, unique smell that I can't quite put my finger on perhaps a combination of peppermint, eucalyptus and menthol. Indeed, just removing the cap from the bottle in my medicine cabinet brings back all the cherished childhood memories of the cuts and scrapes I acquired while dressed in my Superman costume. Trying to fly by jumping off the top of the front steps can be injurious.

Nowadays, I find the smell of the medicine so manly and appealing that I'm tempted to use it as an aftershave. One can't go out dressed as Superman smelling like a sissy.

Blue Star Blue Star Ointment For Ringworm

Blue Star Ointment 2 ozGreat stuff. Good for all skin problems. Highly recommend it. I use it for feet problems. I was a marine infantryman. so trust me, i know!

I have been using blue star for years and anytime I run out I buy another jar. I use it for itching and it definitely works in that reagrd. Beware of using too much though because it will burn your butt off! If you use it for kids I suggest using as little as a dab the size of a battery in a wrist watch.That would be enough to cover the neck. Proceed with caution.

Side bar:I am not sure if it works in all the other areas it claims. Years ago there was a commercial that used to come on and it claimed that this stuff would work for a long list of things. I'd like to get some feedback on that. Anyway, for itching it works perfectly.

Silver Nitrate Applicators - Tube 100

Silver Nitrate Applicators - Tube 100Seems to be a fine product. The sticks all arrived intact with non of the disintegration of the silver nitrate tip that I have seen on occasion. Althoug seldom required, they are about the most efficient way of managing an acute kanker sore of the mouth and some other sites of granulating inflammatory tissues.

I would be wary purchasing an item from this seller. The sticks that I received had little or no nitrate on the stick. You can tell if there is adequate nitrate when the skin discolors to a dark brown/black. When using these sticks it turned the skin a very pale gray/white which indicated potassium but not silver nitrate. I am not surprised that they did not work for a previous reviewer. I emailed the company about the problem and they acted surprised and did not offer to replace the item nor did they discuss any refund. I shipped back the item over five weeks ago and have not received a refund or any communication from them. I will not be buying from this seller again.

I dip the end of the stick in water and press on the canker sore for about 5-10 seconds. It doesn't even hurt! only stings a little. It turns the skin around the sore gray for a day or two. The sore is cauterized instantly.

This product saved my life! I have been dealing with chronic mouth ulcers for over 7 years and have seen 3 different doctors about them. All they would give me was lidocaine, which would only numb the sore temporarily (5 min) but not heal it. This is just what I neededsomething that would physically change the sore instead of numb it.

My quality of life is so much better. I get multiple sores at oncethe most I had was 7 at one time. (The doctor said it was from stress...) I would not eat for days. It hurt to smile, talk, drink water... I overdosed on lidocaine and got really sick and missed work. Never again!

I still get the soresI have had 21 in the last 3 months, including a MONSTER sore that didn't heal for 2 weeks, and left a scar. I wish I had the silver nitrate then!

CAUTION: This stains! If your saliva gets on your lip after using this it will make a black spot that will last 1-2 days. Same for teeth. What I do is hold a tissue in between my lips for awhile after using.

Another thing to be aware of is the potential for Argyria (skin permanently turns gray from silver in the body) ...I don't know if that could happen by using this. Anyone know???

These Silver Nitrate applicators are magic. I used them once on the warts on my dogs warts on his head and with one treatment they were gone. My vet suggested I try these, it was cheaper then having them removed and less painful to my pet. All I had to do was dip the end of the stick in some distilled water and rub it on the wart. No messy creams, No bandages, No freezing, No burning, Nothing like that, I just rubbed it on once and within a week the wart turned black and fell off. Then he got a scab and that fell off and now its all gone, like it was never there! Amazing I would use this product again and again if the warts ever come back!

First let me start off by saying the product was a life saver for me! I had 3 nasty canker stores under my tongue which made it very painful to talk, eat, drink, and kept me awake at night. I was desperate and willing to try anything – and this worked for me! However, this product must be used properly and responsibly. Be aware that what you are doing is using a toxic substance to inflict an intentional chemical burn, in an attempt to cauterize the wound(s) in your mouth. I only used this after several days of rinsing with salt water did not seem to be helping. Also, be aware that you do not want to get this anywhere except the intended areas. So be careful when handling these, and keep away from your skin, eyes, children, etc. The steps I followed (compiled from various other reviews) are as follows:

Canker sore treatment that worked for me:

1. Depending on how well lit your "working area" is, a flashlight may be helpful to shine into your mouth. You will also need a mirror. A friend may also be desirable to hold the flashlight. Have a freezer size zip lock bag or some other safe way to dispose of the silver nitrate safely immediately after use.

2. Prepare two glasses of water, one large for rinsing your mouth, one smaller glass for dipping the silver nitrate.

3. Study your mouth, and know your game plan.

4. If possible, use a cloth to dry the area(s) you plan to treat. ( I did my best here, but the area was still quite wet)

5. Open the tube wearing rubber gloves, remove a stick, and dip the end with the bulb into the small glass of water. Then, dump that glass of water down the drain.

6. Using the mirror (and also flashlight if needed) apply the tip of the silver nitrate to the sore(s) for about 5 seconds on each sore (it will sting). The sores will turn a greyish color (the chemical burn).

7. When done treating the area(s), drop the used stick safely into the ziplock bag.

8. Begin to pour the large glass of water into your mouth, keeping your mouth opened so that it flows out. Be sure not to swallow any water until you have thoroughly rinsed your mouth.

9. Lock unused product away from children

10. Wash your mouth out with salt water several times a day for the next few days to keep your mouth clean and help with the healing process.

For me, I noticed an immediate improvement. The next morning I was feeling almost back to normal. This stuff works miracles, just be careful with it. :-) Read as much as you can on it before using.
