Problem: Article: To help treat and even prevent further foot fungus, you need to take care of your shoes. Try to wear shoes that are made of breathable fabric. You can also try wearing 100% cotton socks. Other materials don't allow your feet to breathe. Also try to buy more open toed shoes. This helps give your feet room to move around and give them access to open air. Avoid wearing the same shoes two days in a row. Your shoes need time to air out. Throw away worn out shoes that might be breeding grounds for bacteria and fungus. Also throw away or disinfect any shoes you wore without socks while you had foot fungus. You don't want to contract the fungus again.  You can also spray them with Lysol or other disinfectants to reduce the chance of fungus or bacteria growing in your shoes. If your shoes aren't breathable, try to take your shoes off as often as you can and expose your feet to the air. Locker rooms, pools, showers, and other similar, moist areas are breeding grounds for fungus. Make sure you never go barefoot in these places — wear sandals, flip-flops, or shower shoes.
Summary: Wear breathable shoes and cotton socks to avoid foot fungus. Practice shoe maintenance to avoid bacteria build-up. Wear sandals in public places instead of going barefoot.

Problem: Article: Before you try to get the girl to kiss you, you should make sure that your advances will actually be welcomed, so don't be too forward/harsh. If the girl is a lesbian or bisexual, then she's obviously open to kissing girls, but if she's just bi-curious, open to new experiences, and loves to experiment, then you may have a shot at it too but be gentle in your approach and give signs that you are interested. Though you can always ask her what she thinks, there are some other ways to know if she's open to kissing girls:  If you want to know whether she's open to kissing girls, you can bring up some lesbians in the popular media, such as K.D. Lang, Ellen, the Indigo Girls, or a number of other women. If she's excited to talk about them and mentions more gay content, then it may be more likely that she's open to kissing girls. Though liking these women doesn't make her a lesbian, it indicates that she's accepting of women who like to kiss women. If you know the girl pretty well, you can also just try casually asking her if she's kissed a girl before. Even if you're both just bi-curious, this conversation shouldn't make her feel too uncomfortable if she knows you well enough. You can also just bring up other girls kissing to gauge her reaction. You can say, "Did you see Mandi and Anna kissing each other in the halls?" See what she thinks. Even if the girl is a proud and open lesbian, that doesn't mean that she'd want to kiss any girl who comes in her path just because she's gay, and that's including you. Read the signs to see if the girl is into you or not. If she flirts with you, leans close to you when she talks, occasionally runs her hands through your hair, and gets very touchy-feely with you, then it's more likely that she wants to kiss you.  If she's always complimenting your looks and doesn't do it in a superficial way, then she may be telling you that she likes you. If she's looking at your lips and makes intense eye contact, then she may want to kiss you. Just keep in mind that if you're both straight and just want to experiment, then it's different from you being straight and wanting to kiss your lesbian friend just for fun. If you think it would be "cool" to make out with your lesbian friend but don't really have feelings for her, she may be very offended and think that you don't take her sexuality seriously.
Summary: See if the girl is open to kissing other girls. See if she'd be open to kissing you.

Problem: Article: Having your lips puckered keeps them tight and somewhat closed, indicating that you're unwilling to open your mouth for more intimacy. Most people will read a pucker as strictly platonic. To know if you're puckering your lips correctly, kiss in the air. How loud is the kissing noise? It should be a clearly audible "pop" of your lips as you part them while sucking air in. A romantic kiss will barely make this noise because your lips are much more relaxed. If you want to kiss someone on the cheek and that someone is at risk of misinterpreting your intentions, make it clear that you're not going for the mouth by turning your head off to the side before you lean in. Try to plant the kiss squarely in the middle of the cheek so that it's not veering for more romantic areas such as the ear or mouth. If you're uncomfortable actually kissing the other person's skin, try air kissing. Lean in so that your cheek is touching the side of the other person's cheek, and kiss the air with a few quick and audible puckers. For extra effect, pull back, switch sides, and do it again. The amount of time your lips spend on the other person's cheek or lips should be limited to whatever it takes to make that kissing noise described in the previous step—nothing more. If your lips linger, it won't seem so platonic. Bow or kneel before the other person. Look up in respect. Remain in this position during the kiss.  Take the person's hand gently and bring it close to your lips.
Summary: Pucker your lips. Make your intentions clear. Keep it brief. Kiss out of respect or worship.

Problem: Article: Rosacea is a chronic skin disorder that comes and goes. It can be hard to predict, but one of the best things for you to do in order to get rid of rosacea related redness before it comes is simply to avoid some of the most common, known triggers of the condition.  Common triggers include sun exposure, heat, alcohol, spicy food, hard cheeses, intense emotions, and changes in the weather such as increased humidity and strong winds. Emotional upsets for rosacea include stress, fear, anxiety, and embarrassment. Prescription medications reduce skin inflammation and can be prescribed if none of the redness remedies or natural treatments work for you. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, have other medical conditions, or take other medications before starting new medications.  Your doctor may prescribe you doxycycline, which is an oral antibiotic known to reduce inflammation. A low dose version of doxycycline, known as Oracea, is given initially in high dosages to jump start the drug in your system but then levels out to maintenance dosage levels. Doxycycline treats not only redness but also the red bumps that are associated with rosacea. There are many other prescription medications as well. Ask your doctor which is best for your specific case. These are prescribed with moderate cases of rosacea instead of mild ones. Some patients prefer topical treatments to pill ones. Your doctor may prescribe medicated creams such as sodium sulfacetamide/sulfur, Metrogel (metronidazole), or Finacea (azelaic acid), which have the same capabilities as the oral treatment but are applied topically. Each help treat the red bumps as well as redness associated with rosacea. This treatment is often used by patients to help relieve redness for longer periods of time than other treatments. This can also help with noticeable blood vessels on the face, neck, and chest. This therapy is used to help visibly improve the skin and brighten the complexion.  Laser treatment can cause some discomfort, but topical anesthetics and ice packs can be used to decrease discomfort. This treatment is not a one time only treatment but is given in 3-6 week intervals. It takes a few sessions to get the best effect and is likely not covered by most insurance companies. It is used mostly when a patient has continual redness that has not responded to other, easier treatments.
Summary:
Stay away from rosacea triggers. Ask your doctor about oral prescription. Use prescription topical treatments. Ask your dermatologist about laser treatments.
