Pimples Q, My nose and chocks arc very red and covered with pimples containing a lot of yellow matter. What Is the cause of tho trouble and what can I do for it? I am 45 years old and have-had have-had the condition for about twoj y.ars. A. It may be only a case of acne, but It In most unwise for you to attempt at-tempt treatment without having a doctor, preferably a skin specialist, examine the condition and make an accurate diagnosis, and advlao you as to treatment. Q. Please explain what Ib meant by "shingles." Is It serious? A. There Is a popular belief that an attack of "shingles" Is usually fatal when the trouble encircles the body. This, however,' In really a mcdTShl for one of the haractcrlstics of this curious skin disease is the fact that it Is almost always limited to one side' of Itho body. "Shingles" manifests Itself as a skin eruption of a grupo of small blisters, usually appealing along the cutaneous distribution of single nerve. The eruption Is accompanied or preceded pre-ceded by an attack of tenderness and neuralgic pains over the area of tho oruptlon. The little bllstors appear In successive groups of from eight to a dozen or more, which gradually Increase In-crease In alzo and arc fully developed In from threo to seven days. After tho bllstors disappear there Is the formation for-mation of a yellow-brown crust, which falls off in from seven to ten days after tho first appearance of tho bllB-tera. bllB-tera. Physicians know the disease under un-der tho name of "zoostor." The crup- tion occurs usually In the upper part I of the body, and as already sa,ld, la imitcd to one sldo though now and i then It Is observed on two sides of the body. In the most frequent form of the discaso tho oruptlon appears on tho side of tho cheat and extends from tho spinal column behind, to the front of the chest, following tho crest of the disease Is still very obscure. Cold and damp weather appear to incrcaso its frequency. The oruptlon may be confounded con-founded with that of eczema, and a physician should, therefore, bo consulted con-sulted oa diagonals and treatment. In most cascB zostor runs a benign and self-llmlted course, but occasionally occasion-ally severe cases are encountered In which the patients, after years of Intense In-tense suffering, are left physical wrecks. Inasmuch as many patients consider an attack of "shingles" n trivial matter, It is of some consequence conse-quence that they be warned of the possibilities of tho future, and that they bo confined to an apartment of equable temperature, In which they aro not exposed to atmospheric changos. This measure Is especially Important In zosters of tho face When "shingles" Involves tho eye, a skilled oculist should be consulted.
