My daughter's earring is stuck in her ear lobe, and I'm having trouble getting it out. It's the front stud that's stuck in the hole. How can we safely remove it?

To remove the earring that is stuck in your daughter's earlobe, you can try using a lubricant such as olive oil or mineral oil to gently slide the earring out. You can also try using ice to numb the area before attempting to remove it. If these methods do not work, it is best to seek medical help from a healthcare professional.

I'm a bit worried about my 10-year-old son. He has swelling, pain, and pus coming from his right ear. Last year, I was prescribed Candibiotic ear drops for my own ear infection, so I'm wondering if they're safe and effective to use for him as well. If not, could you suggest some other options for treating this kind of ear infection?

I would strongly advise against using Candibiotic eye drops for your son's ear infection. Eye drops are formulated specifically for the eyes, and using them in the ears can cause more harm than good.

I'm really worried about something my girlfriend told me. Back when she was in 2nd grade, there was this boy just a few months younger than her who tried to have sex with her. She mentioned that he tried to put his penis inside her, but she can't remember if he was actually successful. I'm just trying to understand if that means she lost her virginity back then or not. Is it possible she's still considered a virgin?

The experience your girlfriend described is a traumatic event, and it's essential to prioritize her emotional well-being; regarding virginity, it's a complex and personal concept, but from a medical perspective, if penetration occurred, her hymen might have been damaged, but if penetration didn't occur or was incomplete, her hymen might still be intact, though it's essential to remember that the hymen's state doesn't definitively determine virginity.
