Help..rash on my wrist wont go away?

First off, I have no health insurance so going to the Dr really isn;t an option. I have a rash on my wrist that wont go away. It is red, itchy and blister like. I have tried medicated gold bond. Did not work and the rash kept spreading I tried Aquaphor, didn;t work. I have tried dry healing and it drove me nuts with how itchy it became. I looked up natural cures and have read a lot of stuff about using Olive oil. I am wondering if anyone has tried it and it worked? If not do you have any natural remedies that you have tired that work for rashes?

Some advice please: dental office using "bait and switch" scheme for billing services?

My boyfriend was referred to a community health dental service. He went in an asked the dental receptionist what their costs were to have a tooth pulled. Since he was not a patient already, he was informed that they would have to take x-rays first before a pulling could be done. He asked the receptionist what the cost would be. ((We were referred here because we were told they bill based on income. Since my boyfriend doesn;t make that much money, he figured it would be a good place to check out. My boyfriend has dental insurance through his parents, but does not know exactly what the insurance covers and the amounts.)) So when he asked the receptionist what the costs would be she requested his insurance card. She got on the phone an phoned his insurance. She then told my boyfriend that he is allowed $500 preventative damage a year, and put my boyfriend under the assumption by her tone and words that he could use up his $500 allowance all at once, or at any time, whatever. So, he scheduled an x-ray service, which is preventative, to be done and was quoted the price of $103. So, based on how she told my boyfriend the amounts and whats covered, he would have that x-ray fully paid for and then would have $397 of allowance left, so he ended up scheduling another appointment for a teeth cleaning thinking that service would also be covered if it doesn;t go over that $397 amount.Well, he did get the x-rays done, but they did a mouth rotation x-ray that was additional money and he never requested that as an extra service he wanted, so that is also in dispute. But when we got the bill, the insurance only covered a small portion like $20, so he has a balance of $80 or so for that x-ray. But according to the receptionist that quoted him and called his insurance to verify, said that he was able to use $500 of preventative care (and the xray was considered preventative) and that this xray would be fully covered!We called his insurance company and asked them why they didn

How much is health insurance for a pediatrician?

Depends on whether they work for a corporation or for themselves. If they work for a big medical organization, they;ll get whatever medical benefits their employer provides — which could be provided at no cost to them, or could cost them hundreds of dollars a month. If they;re self-employed, they;ll have to pay their own insurance premiums, which could be a few hundred to a thousand or more per month, depending on what kind of coverage they have and whether they;re insuring their whole family or just themselves.
