In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Most of the time, chafing can be easily treated at home with simple remedies and lifestyle changes. If your chafing just won’t go away even after several days of home care, talk to your doctor. It’s possible that you’ve developed an infection in the broken skin, in which case they can prescribe an antibacterial or antifungal ointment that can help. You should also see your doctor if your chafed skin is extremely painful or itchy enough to keep you awake at night. You should also see your doctor if you have other symptoms, such as a fever or swelling, redness, bleeding, or discharge in the affected area. Certain health conditions, such as diabetes, can increase your risk of developing skin infections if your skin becomes irritated or broken. If not treated properly, these infections can lead to serious complications. Some medical conditions, such as excessive sweating (which is called hyperhidrosis), can make you more prone to chafing. Talk to your doctor about how you can treat the underlying cause of your chafing if it won’t go away on its own or constantly comes back.  For example, if you have hyperhidrosis, you might benefit from treatments such as prescription antiperspirants or medications that block the nerves associated with sweating.  If you have severe chafing related to obesity, your doctor may be able to recommend safe and effective approaches for managing your weight.
Summary: See your doctor if your irritation doesn’t clear up with home treatment. Call your doctor if you have a condition that makes you vulnerable to infections. Discuss medical treatments for conditions that make chafing worse.

You can test your oil at home with just these 2 items. Make sure you cover your work surface with wax paper or tin foil to protect it from any oil that might bleed through the paper. If your oil doesn’t have a dropper with it or a cap that allows this, you can use the eraser side of a pencil. Just dip the eraser into the bottle and let the oil drip onto the paper from there, or gently touch the eraser to the paper to get the oil to transfer. If you’re testing multiple oils, it might help to label each one so you remember where it is on the paper. This will normally take about 30-45 minutes depending on how much oil you have on the paper. Check after 30 minutes, and if there’s still some liquid on the paper, allow another 15 minutes to dry. If there is a ring present, that means that the oil has likely been diluted with another substance and is less pure. If you can’t see a ring, try touching the paper with your finger lightly. If it’s completely dry and you don’t feel any oil or grease on your finger, your oil is likely pure and high quality. Some oils that are darker in color will leave a slight tint, but the paper should not be oily or greasy once completely dry. Oils such as sandalwood, patchouli, and German chamomile will leave a tint but not an oily ring. For aromatherapists and naturopaths, it might be worthwhile to send oils to a lab for chemical testing. This will ensure that the chemical makeup of the oil is indeed pure and what is labelled on the bottle. The two means of testing are Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry. These tests are often performed together in a lab, and will show whether there are any “adulterants” in the oil.

One-sentence summary -- Select an oil to test and get a piece of blank paper. Place one drop of the oil on the paper. Allow the oil to dry completely. Check the places where you dropped the oil for a leftover ring of oil or grease. Send your oils to a lab for testing if you will be using them for professional reasons.

Q: These bulbs contain mercury, which is toxic, so many places have laws against disposing of them in the trash. Check with your local garbage and recycling center to see if it is ok to dispose of fluorescents and CFLs in the trash.  In the US, the states of California, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, Vermont, and Washington all prohibit throwing away fluorescents and CFLs.  Even if your country, state, or province does not have laws against disposing of fluorescent lights, your regional or town authorities may. Always check with your local center to get the most accurate laws for your area. If it is legal to throw away fluorescent lights and CFLs in your area, you can put them in the trash. Be sure to wrap them in their original packaging or a paper bag before disposing of them. CFLs and fluorescent lights can be recycled. In most areas, there are a number of options for dealing with these types of lights:  Check with your local waste authority to see if you have a nearby drop-off location. Check with the store where you purchased the bulbs. Large retailers such as IKEA and Home Depot often offer recycling for lights you purchased through them.  Check with your local waste authority or a website such as Earth911.com or RecycleABulb.com to see if they offer curbside pickup in your area or local drop-off areas. If you break a fluorescent tube or CFL while changing it, shut off any forced air or heat system that you have and allow the room to air out for ten minutes. Keep all people and pets out of the room for that time. Then, clean up the bulb and recycle or dispose of it:  Scoop up as much of the broken bulb and powder as possible using cardboard or stiff paper. Clean up any additional remains and small fragments with duct tape. Do not vacuum until all powder has been cleaned up. Seal the powder and glass in a sealable container such as a glass jar and dispose of it as appropriate through your local channels.
A: Check your local laws. Throw away fluorescents only if it is legal. Recycle your fluorescent lights if your area has proper facilities. Put broken bulbs in a sealable container.
