You need to clean the piercing daily, every day without fail to allow the body to heal. Using simple diluted antibacterial liquid soap and water in the shower daily would have helped to avoided an infection.

What more can an 8 months pregnant woman with an absessed tooth who has been on amoxicillin and Tylenol for 5 days now and is still in severe pain do?

You should call the dentist and let them know it's not getting better. They may need to give you stronger antibiotics or work on the tooth to get it feeling better. Your dentist will always put you on antibiotics for absessed teeth. By now the antibiotics should have done their job, and the tooth should be ready to either be pulled, or another method your dentist may feel is more convenient for you. Please go back to the dentist and if she/he refuses to pull it and you have taken your antibiotics faithfully and for the length of time requested by your dentist please ask to see an oral surgeon. There is absolutely no reason you cannot have emergency dental work done while pregnant. Good luck Marcy

Will uv light kill scabies?

I don't know, but i've had it with these mites and started treatment this morning with a Verilux UV Light. I had been using the light on clothing, bed and dog beds.
Spent three weeks on the Dermisil.com sulfur soap and Tree Oil mix, and it spread near everywhere. The one thing that did work very well was soaking my feet and hands in the Sulfur - Tree Oil solution. I had gotten to the point of crusty raised calluses that cracked open. Very painful on knuckles, finger joints, foot heels and even the bottom of my feet. Those cleared up quickly though with the Dermisil soaking treatment. The full body bath though seemed to spread the mites everywhere. And yes, i did augment the bath treatment with the frequent and direct application of a Dermisil sudsing mix to the outbreak areas.

Another thing i'm trying that is showing some positive (but painful) results is scratching vigorously the raised outbreaks with a rough soaked in 90% alcohol. Yes, it really stings. But if the the sore is open, the little bastards die, and the outbreak dries up without spreading. Not fun, but that's where i'm at.

One thing is that things have gotten far worse since i started treatment. Initially the outbreak was only confined to my feet and toes. Kind of like athletes foot. And in fact, i had great success treating the itch with tinactin fungal spray. This went on for years, but it was no big deal. Something changed recently. Might have something to do with a the fact that we took in a rescue dog. Adorable, but had a mite infection on his toes that he licked raw. He's on Tea Oil and Chinese Hoe Hin White Flower Balm. Seems to work well, but symptoms return a week or so after treatment is discontinued.

Early test results on UV light indicate a drying out and shriveling effect on the outbreak areas i treated. Length of exposure was less than five seconds. I'm hopeful.
