I had a questionable mole removed from my cheek many years ago and the dude never even said, "How are you doing today?"J.J. in L.A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14394864319127058771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3196908370614674789.post-20367839045702392942010-04-17T12:36:30.797-04:002010-04-17T12:36:30.797-04:00OMG!

You mentioned Botox, which is almost always used to improve appearance. But it can also be used to alleviate migraines (injected into the neck and shoulders, it paralyzes and thus relaxes muscles in chronic spasm leading to migraines), vulvar vestibulitis (same idea), and certain forms of palsy (paralyzes muscles so they can't contract uncontrollably). Are these "cosmetic"? Certainly the affected individuals aren't going to drop dead without the treatments. Should they be judged for having Botox? Incidentally, these are all off-label uses so insurance companies put up a fuss about it, which is horrible. Technically stye removal is cosmetic, but in the medical sense. It isn't medically necessary despite being an active infection. It's sort of the next step after people who are treated with tetracycline daily for chronic acne. Does that mean it takes a vain person to do it? Of course not. It's uncomfortable to painful.mmayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03141617140227164898noreply@blogger.com
