Fluconazole oral suspension or tablets for foot fungus?

In the past, whenever I noticed the slightest sign of infection underneath my toenail, I know something is wrong. Further, if accompanied with carbohydrate cravings, headaches and a number of other symptoms, a systemic yeast "overgrowth" should be suspected. Rather than treat each sympton individually, Diflucan can "knock it all out" in one shot. So, yes Diflucan has cured my foot fungus several times. If you are a woman, just complain to your doctor of a nasty vaginal yeast infection.

What is the best way to sooth a ingrown toenail?

It is important to understand why the toenail is ingrown!One of the main reasons is that people tend to cut the nail in a curve, following the edge of where it is attached underneath. This makes the shape of the nail curved. It is longer on the middle than at the edges. Over time this will make the nail curve upward in the middle where it is longest and down at left and right side. This can lead to an ingrown nail, as it cuts into the skin on left or right (even both sides) as it grows.The "best" method to use "curing" this condition is a combination of two.1: left and right sides should be cut straight at an angle of approx 5-10 degrees as far down towards the middle of the nail as you can painfully stand. This would make the nail push the skin to the sides (rather than grow deep into the skin) as it slowly grows outwards.2: Use a nail-file on the top middle and towards the root of it. File away approx 1/3 of the thickness, no more. This should make the nail curve upwards instead of down. (Do not expect miracles. This process of curving the nail upwards will take some days if not weeks.)In order to avoid ingrown nails in future:1: Never cut the nails short. Leave a millimeter or two.2: Always cut them straight over. This makes sure that they do not curve downwards as much.3: Use a nail-file to weaken the nail slightly on top middle towards the root. This "encourages" the nail to grow upwards rather than down at the sides.Notes.Procedures described is similar to what a doctor normally would use or suggest.A doctor would normally give a local anesthetic before performing this action. There are some local numbing cream available that could be used at most pharmacists or drugstores. Leave cream on to work for 10 min before doing anything. This will ease the pain a bit.Badly ingrown nails some times require part of the root to be removed. I do not suggest doing this yourself.I have used above-mentioned procedure on my painful toenail since I was 16. Now at the age of 40, I rarely have any problems, and if the toenails starts something I just follow this procedure and a week afterwards or so, all problems are gone again.Must admit that I have a high threshold for pain. lol

What parallels have you seen among fallen religious leaders of your time?

The same as fallen religious leaders of Bible times. They were deceived when they fell into sin. And they were completely forgiven by God when they repented. The same as you or me, only it is difficult for them to have a large following again, because of publicity and the way that the liberal media has treated them.
