Any suggestions? I've developed a very red face and don't know why
I avoid moisturisers because I can't tolerate vaseline, lanolin, liquid
paraffin
, petrolatum, and petroleum jelly in any form. Various other names of the same ingredients appear disguised in various products but I can usually guess where it is hiding.

RE iron tablet recommendations
Does anyone have any recommendations for ferrous fumurate of these dosages that DO NOT contain any nasties (I even saw one brand containing talc and
paraffin
). I have been taking Terra Nova Easy Iron Complex (from health store) but it is only 20mgs bisglcinate chellate... so not enough ..

Natural emollient for toddler
She was pretty meh about which one ie wasn’t fussed which, and prescribed a
paraffin
-heavy one. I know I don’t get on at all with that sort of thing, my skin definitely prefers more natural products, so I am looking for an all-natural or mostly natural emollient product to try with him as well.

8 day circumcision
The doctor checked and said he can see a cut in the wound where I was given he lonet
Paraffin
Gauze to keep over the wound to stop the bleeding drops. I was just wondering if this is normal due to healing and to just trust the process of healing.

one week after circumcision
I am using
paraffin
and instillagel (dilute lignocaine as suggested by doctor). When I lay down with the penis pointing towards feet, it relaxes back to normal, though the skin appears a bit swollen.

Paraffin/Wax baths?
My rheumatology nurse recommended
paraffin
/wax baths or soaks esp for hands. At this point I am willing to try anything but was wondering whether anybody here has found this helpful and have any recommendations or tips?

Rural Air Pollution
In our small rural adjacent norfolk villages, we had, a couple of weeks back, an incident whereby the whole of the communities were pervaded by a hugely strong, powerful and intolerable stench (described as like domestic oil or
paraffin
) which filled the air for the best part of the day.

Is a Focally Positive Margin something to worry about????
The conclusion of the report says....Margins: Clear in the
paraffin
sections: intra-operative sections having shown a focally positive margin; and additional tissue from the right side clear of tumour. Should the focally positive margin give me cause for concern going forward???

Paraffin Wax safe?
I've read that doing
paraffin
wax dips helps restore moisture so we want to try. I can order unscented, uncolored wax. Is there a risk of PG or PEG in this? I can't find any ingredient information.

The quality of the ganglion DNA is suboptimal because it has been fixed in formalin and included in

and has some technical limitations.

Same it to me but not infection pls help me how to fix? I save this post not mine because same but not infection.
It contains a
paraffin
gel like substance that protects the area (it seems wet but it's not wet per se). The second layer I'm using is a strip of Melolin gauze (shiny side towards wound) secured using medical tape.

Could sugar in skin ointment affect my diabetic blood sugar tests?
(It contains Propylene Glycol, Sorbitan Sesquioleate and White Soft
Paraffin
. From what I can find out, all these three things irritate my skin and the Sorbitan Sesquiolate is sugar with oleic acid (to which I've also proved sensitive in the past.
