How hard would you have to hit the lateral malleolus for it to break?
for a school project. how hard would you have to hit it (it's the big bump on side of ankle) like it you had a hammer, how hard would it have to be hit? i'm doing this to study about broken bones and how hard they would have to be hit to break, so using a hammer, how hard do you think you would have to?
Why Can't I Get Rid of Bad Acne and Oily Skin?!?
About a year ago I began getting acne a little acne on my face and it started spreading to my upper back, and the back of my neck. It only got worse as time went on. I've been trying quite a few treatments since then and none seemed to have worked. Here are some of the things I have tried; Clearasil, ProActive, Ginseng Cream, and some Neutragena stuff too. Nothing was extremely effective. And during that time acne also spread to sometimes getting it a little on the front of my neck and my upper chest. Thats crossing the line for me! Having it on my face, back, neck, and chest! Really? The recently I got this bump on my nose, and over to the side of it. They're big with no signs of getting better. I went to the doctor when I somewhat sick. She looked at my face while in the process (just wondering what was going on there) and told me it was a type of cystic acne on the face. I definitely did believe here and still do. She then put me on a pill that I have to take daily which doesn't seem to work either. This is where I am now; cystic acne on the face with plenty of smaller acne around (chin cheeks somewhat, forehead, and nose), all sorts of bad acne on the back that has been scarring me for months, scar-ful acne on the upper neck near the face, with acne on the lower neck too. And now I have my chest also to worry about, the acne on my chest tends to scar and is mostly black heads (whatever the ones that are black and feel like little goosebumps, last I read they're called white heads but these are black).
What should I do? With the scarring I can't try 50 million different things, take for ever to find something and in the time it takes me to find what I'm looking for, load up on scars! I begging you for help to fix this. I've been dealing with criticism, being made fun of at school. Even my friends while mess with me its so bad! Someone please give me possible solutions!
acne on chest.. can it be cured?
hi everybody.. my brother had acne, pimples on his chest before.. and he used to touch it or tried to squeeze it..now it has became this huge bump on his chest with chest hair.. it's really big.. he saw dermo, but the doctor kept giving him shots hoping it would get smaller which it never had.. i don't want him to take any more of those shots anymore.. do anybody have similiar experience can share the stories with me? im worried about his skin problems now and he doesn't have medical insurance for him to keep going to see doc when the docs dun even know how to get rid of it... can he do laser? there's another one on his arm, he had mole and he did mole remover from some clinics and that scar became so big.. it looks just like red muscle with very thin skin.. i feel sad looking at it....

Cystic acne treatment?!!?
I've had severe pimples and white heads the last year and a half. They all vanished, but now I get cystic acne! I've been to the dermatologist many times for shots, medication, and consultation. He strongly recommended accutane, but my family doesn't have insurance. I've had laser treatment done along with high dosage shots in korea, this helped my cysts a lot. But the korean derm. also said it was odd that my skin isn't perfectly clear (apparently it was suppose to be after all the treatment). The medication he gave me made me sweat so much, like sweat even when I;m not hot. This made school life impossible, so I quit that after 2&half month of using. Through the last three months of laser/shots/medicine, my cysts went down a lot.
Now they're coming back up and are getting redder! I read on the internet that cysts are suppose to hurt on touch, but mine has no feeling. They just feel like a bump on my skin that occasionally gets itchy. I don't scratch or pick at it, but they just won't go away. They're all in my side jaw areas, a few black spots have already formed. When I got a cyst next to my eye, it cleared up in a few weeks. But the ones next to my jaws seem like they're been there for over a year. Is there any meds that help clear up cystic acne?! Home remedies that work?!
I've tried Benzol cycline (I think thats what it's called)
I still wash my face with Benzol Peroxide (10%) couple times a day
I don't eat greasy foods, I eat mainly vegetables and rice.
I take 1 a day teen advantage, zinc, and Vitamin A every day.
I've tried putting tomato pulp on my face, apple cider vinegar too.
Help!

Bump on chest… Acne?
I have had a bump on my chest for the last 2 months now. Recently it has grown. I think it is acne of some sort... I have tried many medications to help it, nothing seems to work. I have tried typical acne soap, regular hand soap, benzoyle peroxide, hydrocortisone cream, wart remover... nothing helps! It is driving me crazy I want to rip it off. When squeezed, green stuff comes out from 2 differnet spots. I know thats gross but I need help. Should I try hydrogen peroxide?

The bump is hard, looks like two pimples in one... Feels waxy, and skin on top is dry and very red. Its about 5/8 inch wide, half inch height
Huge zit on nose with a small white spot in the bottom right corner?
About a week or two ago, i got this huge red zit on the tip of my nose. I use Clearisil Ultra Deep Pore Cleansing Pads every day and put Neutrogena On-The-Spot Acne Treatment on it about 2 or 3 times a day. But the zit hasn't gone down much.
Today i noticed there is a tiny white bump on the bottom right corner of the zit. I tried pulling at the white bump but it didn't do anything. I don't know if it's like a lodged piece of dirt or part of the zit or what!
Can someone tell me what this may be or how i can get rid of it? I really want this huge zit off of my nose!
Skin help…acne AND a rash =(?
Sooo...I have had acne for 3-4 years now.
I don't know if you'd call it "severe" or everything, sometimes my face looks really bad, like 10 pimples...other times like 2.
I've tried everything to get rid of it.... I spend SO much time washing my face; you'd think I'd have perfect skin. But the thing is, no matter how much I clean my face, it's NEVER completely clear.
So…let’s see….
I've tried Clean & Clear Advance acne kit, Proactive, Acne Free kit, Clean & Clear spot treatment, I've tried Neutrogena, I've tried ALL the generic stuff...I've tried literally all the combinations I could make from the stuff in the kits. I've tried literally every face wash they carry at Wal-Mart and CVS.
I wash my face everyday (at least 3 times). I shower everyday (and at night too--even thought it'd be easier for me to in the morning, I've figured it's better to shower after the day is over and sleep clean, then it would if I lied in bed all night dirty--yes I put *that* much thought and effort into this).
I've tried toothpaste. I've tried crushed up aspirin, I've tried lemons. I've tried apple cider vinegar. I've tried cucumber face masks.
…I use to sleep on my side/stomach...I now sleep uncomfortably on my back ( I have to sleep in like the crack of my bed so I don't roll over >.>) so that my face doesn't touch the pillow.
I force myself to drink bottles of water all day long. I haven't had a sip of soda in 2 years. I've been avoiding eating anything man made, I pretty much live off of salad, I don't even use dressing, Y_Y. I don’t even where any kind of skin make-up or blush.
Point is, I’ve tried EVERYTHING.
And like, this week, my face basically exploded. My face is always red, and my pimples leave bad marks. Not only that, but I have pimples on my face that won’t go away…they're not red/ a scar...the skin just grows on top of the pimple, so it's liek a bump on my skin, (DISGUSTING I know T_T).
So nowwww, on Monday, I woke up with a horribleee rash on my face. Like, blots of my face are all red and puffy and like oily. It hurts too. Other parts of my skin aren’t red, but it’s realllly bumpy and dry.
So, I haven’t put anything on my face for three days. I’m really at my wits end. I really don’t feel comfortable in my skin at all. Last night, I basically bawled for an hour because my face looks so bad.
Like, I've been dressing in gray lately and I've been avoiding talking to people face-to-face, because my face looks so bad.
I really don’t know what to do =(
I have no idea where the rash came from.
I have NO ideas left on how to get rid of my acne.
I don't know what I'm doing wonggg. Urgh.
So, please, PLEASE, ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you.
