Hello I'm 43 year old female and have very red veins on the inside of my nose ( septum) my doctor thought it was roscea and prescribed me bactroban and fucidin these haven't helped. I have had this problem for around 7 years now and I'm extremely self conscious about it, I have to put concealer on my septum every day to cover it up and hide the redness. Please can you help?

I'm a 19 year old male, been with my girlfriend for 9 months and we have a healthy sex life. Nearly always after we've had sex, I need to urinate straight after. Is this normal?

sounds like thrush… I'd go and see a doctor though, men normally show symptoms of STD's before women

I am 72 yrs of age, need to enjoy a healthy sex life, and have viagra prescribed due to diabetes. However, the last few months I have certainly lost the desire and need to get it back quick. If I attempt sex with my wife at the moment, it is like trying because you think you have to and then it becomes more difficult. Can yuo suggest anything please.
