Old makeup can encourage the growth of bacteria and clog your skin. Before you sweat or sleep, take off your makeup. To make sure that it is completely removed, use a makeup remover, oil cleanser, or micellar water before cleansing your face. Though you may want to pop the acne on your face, you should resist the temptation. Popping pimples can lead to worse redness and swelling of the area, and it can push bacteria and pus deeper into your pores, making the pimple hang around longer. Popping zits can also lead to scarring. If your acne doesn't go away with any remedy, acne product, and a regular face wash schedule, you may have severe acne. This is treatable, but you need to see a doctor. Some treatments that your dermatologist can perform include laser or light treatments, chemical peels, and microdermabrasion. If you have a large cyst, they may even inject it with a steroid. If your acne is severe, a dermatologist may prescribe an antibiotic or isotretinoin (Accutane). Though this won't quickly get rid of existing acne, you can make changes to your life to help prevent and heal acne. For starters, washing your face twice each day is the best way to heal and prevent acne. You can also drink plenty of water, add more healthy foods like fruits and vegetables to your diet, and exercise to help prevent acne. However, these changes take awhile to work and won't clear up acne fast, but help in the long run.

summary: Remove your makeup before exercising or going to bed. Avoid popping pimples. See a dermatologist if your acne does not improve. Make changes to your lifestyle to prevent acne.

Wipe off any dirt and grime near the hole. Once the area around the hole is clean, dry the area with a dry rag or paper towel. Shoe Goo works best for holes in the soles of shoes. If you want to repair a hole in the top of your shoe with Shoe Goo, keep in mind the hole will still be noticeable even after you fill it in. Rub the coarse side of the sandpaper back and forth over the hole until you see scratches starting to form. The scratches on the sole will help the Shoe Goo stick to the sole. Use a piece of duct tape that's large enough to cover the entire hole. The duct tape should go on the inside of your shoe. The duct tape will prevent the Shoe Goo from getting inside your shoe when you apply it. Shoe Goo is a thick, clear adhesive that hardens when it dries. Squeeze the tube of Shoe Goo and slowly move the tube across the hole as the Shoe Goo comes out. Stop squeezing once the entire hole is covered with Shoe Goo. You can find a tube of Shoe Goo online or at your local shopping center. Shoe Goo doesn't stick to ice. If you missed any spots, cover them with Shoe Goo using the ice cube. Spread the Shoe Goo with the ice cube until it's in a flat, even layer over the hole. Don't rush the drying process or the Shoe Goo may not adhere properly. Place your shoe in a safe spot where nothing will disturb it for 24 hours. Brush the sandpaper back and forth over the Shoe Goo until it's flush with the rest of your shoe sole. Make sure there aren't any bumps in the Shoe Goo or you'll be able to feel them when you're walking in your shoes.

summary: Clean the area around the hole in your shoe with a wet rag. Use 120-grit sandpaper to scratch up the area around the hole. Remove the insole and apply a piece of duct tape over the hole. Turn your shoe over and cover the hole with Shoe Goo. Use an ice cube to spread the Shoe Goo in an even layer over the hole. Let the Shoe Goo dry for 24 hours. Sand down the Shoe Goo with 120-grit sandpaper.

Easy-to-obtain antacids like Maalox, Rolaids, and Tums contain calcium, magnesium, or aluminum and can help neutralize neutralize or counteract the acid in the stomach to make it less corrosive. Antacids can be purchased over-the-counter at pharmacies and drug stores. One of the most prescribed antacids is Maalox. Its recommended dose is one to two tablets four times a day. Though some people find these helpful in treating the casual occurrence of heart burn or indigestion, these may not be strong enough in cases of chronic indigestion. One of the main causes of chronic indigestion is excessive stomach acid which leaks upwards into the esophagus and causes discomfort. Acid blockers (also known as H2 blockers) work to reduce the production of stomach acid, thereby making the stomach contents less acidic so that when they do leak into the esophagus, it will be less irritating. The most widely recommended H2 blocker is ranitidine, or Zantac, which can be obtained OTC or with a prescription. Ranitidine can be taken orally in tablet form. In general, most H2 blockers are to be taken 30 to 60 minutes before eating (but only twice per day maximum). Acid blockers do not act as quickly as antacids but they last longer. In fact, acid blockers can work for several hours and are best used as a preventive measure. Proton pump inhibitors work by blocking a chemical system called the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase enzyme system, which produces stomach acids. If the level of stomach acid is low, then the abdominal pain in chronic indigestion can be minimized. Physicians recommend PPIs when acid blockers don't provide lasting relief or when you have problems in the esophagus thanks to GERD. One PPI called Prilosec is available OTC, whereas others, including Aciphex, Nexium, Prevacid, Protonix, and stronger Prilosec, require prescription. Alginates, such as the OTC brand Gaviscon, create a foam barrier that floats on top of the contents of your stomach and keeps your stomach acids from pushing back up to the esophagus. Because they create that barrier between the stomach acid and the esophagus, alginates are especially good at providing relief from acid reflux and heartburn. Alginates work faster than H2 blockers and last longer than antacids. They come in both liquid and tablet form, so you should use whatever you prefer. You should take alginates when you experience symptoms and not before a meal, since the food passing through the esophagus can disrupt the barrier and make it less effective. Reglan, or metoclopramide, increases digestive contractions, which helps to move food through the digestive system and into the intestines. The math is simple: speedier digestive means less heartburn. Reglan should only be considered a short-term treatment and only as a last resort when the other medicines mentioned above do not provide sufficient relief. Do not use Reglan for more than 12 weeks. Reglan requires a prescription and can be taken in tablet or liquid form, usually 30 minutes before meals and before bed. NSAIDs are not given to patients with chronic indigestion to relieve abdominal pain because these drugs can irritate the intestinal lining and may aggravate the condition. Instead, antidepressants are prescribed for pain relief. Antidepressants aid in pain relief by reducing the ability of the nerve cells to reabsorb brain chemicals such as serotonin and noradrenaline. These chemicals accumulate outside the nerve cells if they are not reabsorbed. This results in the inhibition of pain messages to the spinal cord. Amitriptyline is usually prescribed for this purpose. Its therapeutic dose is 10 to 25 mg daily, which is gradually increased by an increment of 10 or 25 mg each week. Always consult your physician about the possibilities of taking an antidepressant for pain relief.
summary: Take an antacid. Take acid blockers. Take proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Take an alginate. Try Reglan. Use antidepressants for pain relief.
