[jeffro]

Hello everyone,i hope your all greatt
Please can member here give me any advice on how to help my anghel.
About 6 weeks ago she got this rash,its just on her hands and feet,its blistering and so so painful,and the itching is driving her loco and she cant sleep many times,i just came off line talking to her and she is in tears,she has suffered so vey much with this rash and feels `ashamed`and i keep trying to reassure her never to feel ashamed or sad because its not her fault..She has tried everything ,creams,injections,and faith healers ,but still it wont go,and its expensive for her .Ive sent E45 cream but its taking so long to get to her.She cant work,because she does manicuring to support herself,so this gets her down and sad even more because she needs the extra income,and again she said she feels ashamed to me because im sending Peso for her and our kids for food and jello,and for creams etc,and she doesent want me to keep sending, she is so good i cant say i words,my heart crys out to her . .I asked about this rash on yahoo ,and my anghel keeps saying its like someone has put a curse on her,i think the term is USOG?..I have told her not to think such things ,its an infection,maybe a tropical disease,or perhaps she could have got this infection by manicuring someones nails,i just dont know what to do to help her ,and i can see that she is becoming more and more distressed,how can i help her????..I asked can she go hospital and see the doctors there,but she said its expensive ,i told her please go now,because she really has suffered enough with this rash.To have to sit here and watch her cry and i am so far away is sooo upsetting and distressing,i just wish it was October and i was with her and could comfort her.Does any member here know anything about these rashes,or this usog???? and the best cream or course of treatment,and please could you let me know how i can help end her suffering,i am going into town later,if any member knows a good cream please let me know and i will post for her ,and thanks for any advice you can kindly give me and my anghel ,
many many thanks ,
jeff and Maria,and my anghel Mariasol

hi jeffro...


the best thing to do is to go to a doctor. it is ok to go to "faith healers" but if the symptoms still persist, she has to go to a doctor. it is not advisable to use any cream on it before seeing a doctor, it could have adverse effect on it.


i am saying this coz i have done self-medicating on myself whenever i get a rash or something and it never got healed (of course, i have been using the wrong topical meds, etc). so i consulted a doctor, and it turned out i got allergy.

Hello Mitch and thankyou for your kind advice .She has been to her doctors,fisrt she gave her cream ,and then injections,but its still there .She said the faithhealer just sort of blew smoke all over her??? I dont know anything of faith healers ,but seems his smoke didnt do anything,except make her cough ,!!! As i write she is much happier,i think she was just mega down earlier.Hopefully she will be cured soon once the right cream etc is given to her .Thanks for all your kind advice and help

By the description it looks like she caught chickenpox and if thats the case she has to avoid scratching and apply calamine lotion or caladryl they call it in the Phil..or best to consult skin especialist.

Hi Kentish,how are you,thanks soo much .I though chickenpox,and its very similar the blistering,but i though chickenpox affected more than the hands and feet????i think calamine lotion could well help,its worth a try ,thankyou,and ill send some for her .
Many many thanks for your kindess and help!!!!

just asked my wife, could be anything she says, likely an allergy from what she puts on her customers nails, fungi or could be even scabies. with seeing her, impossible to really tell, but try a steriods cream..

[KeithD]

Change soap, washing liquid, etc.....shaving cream

Hi,hope you and your wife are well!!
thanks to both of you for your advice and help.I think she really needs to go back to her doctors again but i dont know if its expensive for her to keep going and for medication,..i know she had to travel quite a way to see this faith healer,but he has`nt done anything ,i told her not to go no more to him and make her own smoke ,but maybe i said the wrong thing,but im not getting tampo- yet??? Ive posted E45,i hope it helps ,but as you advise and others, without knowing the source or kind of infection its difficult to help her.
Would it be very expensive for her to see a specialist in skin complaints??,i have so much to learn and understand about the way of life in the Philippines,and without sounding offensive i know many truly struggle,ive read medical costs are expensive,so the poorest really suffer because they cant afford the treatment.Im not saying my anghel is among the poorest,but she is struggling bringing 4 kids up on her own,and their home is just 1 room,it took me ages before she would send me a picture of her home ,because she said she felt ashamed,but i would sooner live in her /our 1 room and be happy than live in a mansion and be sad.
Many thanks ,i truly appreciate yours and everyones advice here,its a beautiful forum,salamat.

ha ha,laughters still the best medicine,except for this rash

[pennybarry]

There are many good Dermatologists that can help her. There's a cream for anti itchy called Caladryl Lotion and will help her avoid scratching.

[gracia143]

Hi Jeffro! How's your girlfriend by now? I hope the rashes are gone but if not tell her to buy Iterax tablets, they are not too expensive and have been very effective...my dermatologist recommended that when i had rashes few months ago...it worked.

[bigtombowski]

i hope she's fine too

[gracia143]

i hope she's fine too

Yeah, me too! Hey Tom! When are you coming to the Phils.?

[andypaul]

My Wife while still in phill suffered from a rash and for a while over in the UK. Part of the problem we noticed was due to stresss. You can have all the best medical care and lotions, but if your stressed either mentally or physically we all know the body suffers and will not heal so well.

The advice all ready given is good and far better than i can give, but a 2nd opnion from another doctor and making sure any stress mental or physicall is eased is what i might try if i was you.

[bigtombowski]

Yeah, me too! Hey Tom! When are you coming to the Phils.?

In phill i think the muslims are the dvd dvd sales people in manila so if you walk round like that with a rucksack the police might to ask for a copy of the simpsons.

[bigtombowski]

haha,
was a funny film!

Im gonna get a copy of it

("not" pirate copy )

[gracia143]

Hi guys! Yes, Fred Lim did win...you should see what happened to Baywalk (looks desserted to me). He had ordered that the establishments there be demolished which they had done for the past weeks now. That is part of his programs I think. And another thing, he asked the funeral parlors to do some expansions, as he thinks they would be needing more space during his term. But I like the man, he is one tough guy like Rodrigo Duterte of Davao. And Tom will be safe when he comes here to visit his uyab. But you cannot have guinness here, just try the San Miguel beer I'm sure you'll love it too.
