Good day, Nairaland.

I noticed some type of itching all over my body around June this year. I thought initially it was bed bug. But I searched all over the bed and the chairs but found none. I brought insecticide and spray.

Even while I was outside for work or other activities, I still felt the itching.

I went to the chemist and explained my ordeal. He gave me Loratadine and some antibiotics.

After using it for some days the itching stopped. I traveled to the village July this year. The itching came back but this time it came with some marks.


I planned to go back to the chemist whenever I return back from my traveling. But the marks were becoming very obvious because it appeared on my face one certain time. I went to one of the clinic in the village. The nurse gave me some injection, drugs and anti bacteria cream which I used for weeks but no improvement.


When I got back. I went to the chemist. He gave me same Loratadine along with some strong antibiotics.

But up till date the itching is still there and the marks too

NOTE:
1. I have been using one particular soap and cream for the past 5-7 years now.
2. I have never wore clothes that aren't mine
3. The itching last for 20-40 minutes. And the marks comes at random, sometimes it comes with itching, sometimes it just appear without itching
4. The marks disappear after 30-45 mins. It can appear anywhere(arms, legs, body and my face sometimes)
5. Anytime I use Loratadine drug, the itching and marks subdue for 2-3 days


Pls help a brother out, don't know what this thing is.

Lol..... Argument don start..... We were taking our bath. Yes what happened next. Who took our lantern

Wait...... Show don finish?


Out of 48 mins, they used 20 mins for adverts.... Great show anyway

True true the narrator get bad mouth

Dozis:
So today in the Pharmacy, a lady came in with a written note to buy the following antibiotics.
Perfloxacin 2
"Cipro infusion" 6
"Ciproxin tablets" 2
Rocephin 6.

On seeing the note I wasn't comfortable, I asked her who the drugs were meant for, she said it's for herself, I then asked her who prescribed it and she said a nurse, I asked her to call the nurse that I want to speak with her to know why she wants to give all these antibiotics to one person, maybe all the bacteria in the world are having a conference in the lady's body.

Not that the the one she wrote "Ciproxin" is ciprofloxacin and Cipro infusion is also ciprofloxacin but meant for intravenous use (these nurses usually call it Ciproxin or Cipro), Ciprofloxacin and Perfloxacin are the same class of drugs with similar mechanism of action, (same Pharmacology) just some differences in their chemical structures,

so basically this "nurse" wants to give one drug in two different forms (Ciproxin tablets and Cipro infusion) with another similar drug (Perfloxacin) to one person and don't forget Rocephin (Ceftriaxone) which is another powerful antibiotic.

So the nurse was called, I introduced myself as the pharmacist that wants to sell the drugs she wrote down for a patient and that I'm not comfortable with the patient taking all these at the same time, that it could cause more harm than good, she told me that the patient ran some infection tests and that those drugs she wrote are the ones that was recommended by the lab results.

Now let me explain what happened here, the lady ran some infection tests and the laboratory scientist also ran what is called antibiotic sensitivity tests to determine the most appropriate antibiotic to use for treatment, this helps doctors to go straight and prescribe the suitable antibiotic, just like hitting the bull's eye without beating about the bush.

So this nurse told me that according to the lab results, that the lady is supposed to use all the antibiotics that showed sensitivity, at this point my jaw dropped, I tried to let her know that she's making a mistake,she now told me to give the lady only "Ciproxin" I sold only a pack of Ciprofloxacin to the lady and told her this pack will suffice for whatever treatment she wants and that has needs further evaluation, she should go to a clinic and see a proper doctor.

She said she was directed to the woman because she has a good reputation of treating people of infections and they get pregnant afterwards, so it was a case of child bearing.
She left with the drugs and came back about thirty minutes later, that the "nurse" said that what I gave her was not Ciproxin, I collected my drugs back and refunded her appropriately. God knows I tried.

Her case was not the first and it definitely would not be the last, I see it everyday, nothing stops me from selling all those drugs and pocketing the money, but I have a duty which i also swore to, to protect and educate people on the dangers of drug misuse, that "Aunty Nurse" that learnt "nursing" on the roadside instead of going to school, that did freedom instead of graduation is who people prefer to patronise instead of going to hospital to get a proper care.

OP thanks for educating we the non-Medical experts. About 2 months ago, I have been having some marks all over my body, the marks comes and go over some mins. It doesn't cause pains, just itching. I went to one nurse and she was giving me some anti infection injection and drugs. But that didn't work. I explained my condition to one chemist a week ago and he prescribed some drugs for me. Yesterday I got the drugs. But I checked the works of the drugs he gave me and all of them almost work the same thing.


1. Nefixime 400
2. Surelife Doxycycline
3. Metrozol
4. Loratadine

2 days ago a police man raped a student of Abia state Polytechnic. Today innocent soul is been wasted for God knows what.

Thank you all for your inputs. Today been Tuesday, they finally unfrozed it. After series of endless calls. One of the first contact agent(Esther by name), was able to use her own system to modify it. I have wasted more than 3k card. Everyday I call them. Every hour, every minutes.


She(my mum) went to one of the branch today and the customer care said they have been waiting for her. They brought out one file Waiting for her signature

Lol. Probably fear


Pls Nlanders I need help with my mum bank issue

https://www.nairaland.com/6665499/issue-firstbank-nigeria

The only evidence I have is just the call I made 2years ago

BarrSly:
Get a lawyer to write to them that’s all. Institutions and organizations fear lawyers a lot most especially when you have your facts right with necessary evidence.

dettolgel:
Remember to copy first bank in the email

done all that no solution

eefeem:
Send a mail to CBN via cpd@cbn.gov.ng or call +2347002255226

I have done that twice(last year and earlier this year) and they only acknowledge my email without single respond from them

HarunaWest:
Well she is right.. The account isnt yours. However, inform your mum to visit another branch and lay her complaint there. Everything can be handled at branch level. You dont have to call anyone to unrestrict your account. Cheers.

like I wrote earlier. I went to the bank with her. She has been going in and out of the bank for years without solution Just today been Friday I went with her to hear what they would say. And I believe the shout will go a long way to solve one or two

I nearly caused trouble at the bank. But the woman that claimed to be the manager said I have no right to cause a scene because the said account isn't mine

DAMN99:
Nigerian banks will disgrace you, suffocate you with their toxic way of doing thing and even try to crucify you if they can..there was a time i thought of using piggy vest..

Too bad. No job anywhere

Hello Nairaland


My mum phone got stolen around September 2019, she called me that same day to inform me of what happened. And I know what thieves can do with ones sim because I have been a victim, thank God it was small amount that was stolen. I had to call first contact for them to block all outgoing transactions with her permission. I called my mum and told her I have done as she instructioned.

After a week or so she went to the bank to rectify the issue. They asked for Invalid ID card number. She searched for her voters card but couldn't find it. She had to opt in for national ID card, which took her almost a year, because she's a busy type. She abandoned her business on several occasions and went for the national ID and after paying a huge amount of money for the national ID she finally got it.


She took the national ID card to the bank, they asked for her electricity bill which also took her some time to get. After presenting all the required documents including her recent passports. The bank customer care assured her within the period of 7 working days the account will be opened.


She went back to the bank after the given period. The same customer care Said the name she used for her ID card didn't tarry with her account names( she used her middle name in place of her first name) she went for an affidavit. The customer care said before 3 working days the account will be opened. she went back again after the said period and the customer care said they can't validate the national identification number.


she asked how, the customer care said it was a fake NIN that was issued to me.

How could it be a fake ID number and she had already linked NIN with her sim Without any issue?


After several weeks she got another national ID with another 5k And other documents requested from the bank

The issue she's having now. When I called the first contact customer care that blocked the account in 2019. The customer didn't give reasons why the account was blocked. She have been going in and out of the bank without solutions.


On Friday I went with her to the bank and one of the security men at the bank was like "Ha Madam, them never still attend to you"

When we got inside the bank, a customer care at the bank referenced me to go back to that same first contact customer care that blocked the account for him to put a reason or modify why the said account was blocked.


I have to waste more than 1k airtime to call their first contact to resolve the issue. After waiting for more than 30 mins, they finally picked, I explained everything to them and the respond the first contact gave was "we would follow up your case"



Pls bankers and lawyers in the house. What can be done about this. Because my mum is in need of money for medical emergency

Lalasticlala pls I need a wider coverage and sorry for any grammatical errors

Mine was an ugly one.

There was this girl called Chisom, I remembered asking for her number when we went for our post UME. She gave me her number and we kept the communication on the low.

Lucky for us, we gained admission.

She began as a fresher 2 weeks ahead of me. That same week I began mine as a fresher, I didn't know what lead me to collect her phone because I saw her playlist. She plays the exact type of gospel songs I love.

So I asked for her phone, she gave me. And she went for lecture

I was rushing for my tutorial and some guys approached they were cultist because of the way they dressed and the sling. That was my first Time of been been robbed. This cults guys about 5 in numbers approach me with gun and other dangerous weapons in the school. They collected my watch, my neckless and her phone, leaving my own phone because her own phone is more advance than mine. I had my laptop in my bag and a huge large amount of money closed to 50k for my acceptance fees and textbooks. When they asked me what was in the bag I told them its my books. I was so confident that I pulled the bag and gave them to search (A risk I took) they didn't search it because of the confident I displayed. They believed me

After they collected my watch and her phone, they ran off.
This girl later asked for her phone and I told her am coming because I was on the case. I have reported the case to the anti cult group of the school.

The girl doesn't know what was going on. She later found out and was like say how can I be this careless. That why didn't they steal my laptop in my bag that why must they collect only her phone, she was blabbing, I had to lie to her that they also took my phone to ease her mind but that was my biggest mistake.

Long story short, the girl involved her brother who's a solider.
Her brother involved the school authority and school authority involved the school security.

I explained my own side of the story. But no one believed me because I lied to her initially that my phone was also taken.

The school security handcuff me like a common criminal from my department to the security post. Imagine the disgrace. everyone was just looking at me, I didn't even know the type of problem I got myself into because I was a fresher and I don't have single friend in that school. I pleaded with them. They called me a criminal, called me a thief, called me a cultist, was even using some cult slings on me but didn't respond to anyone because I don't know what it mean.

They said I must provide that phone and 16GB Memory card the cult guys took, they seized my phone, I pleaded with them to release my phone because its the phone I use in making contact with my mum because she doesn't know what was going on but they didn't.


After a week the security came to pick me from my class to their security post. When we got there, they started slapping me accusing me of been a cult guy. Even threatening to hand me over to the police. I told them they are free to do so because I don't know those boys or where they are from. But Nigeria police can make one confess for a sin he/she never committed. I had a rethink. They asked me to provide the old phone or buy another one. I opt to buy another phone because its nearest to impossible to get back that phone. I asked them for my phone so I can keep in contact with my mum. Because I believed she must have been worried that she have not spoken to me for more than 2 weeks. They asked me to go home and bring my laptop(as a collateral) so they can give me my phone. Since am not making use of the laptop. I went home and brought my laptop. They seized it and refused to release the phone.


I pleaded with them. For where.
That same day I withdraw 50k out of 70k meant for my school fees. And I got the phone for the sum of 48k and gave it to them. That day I gave up in school. I was contemplating on coming back home but as God may have it. I got back the money I spent for that phone before my exam commence.



Chisom if you are seeing this, I didn't steal your phone, am not a cultist and can never be one

My brother, you get luck na. Our own dey customize their own. We wey be the boyfriends no dey see the post.

They said bad habit is like a bed of roses very easy to get in but difficult to get out of. Once a strong man is always a strong man

20 Lagos

Nigeria police is fond of that. They arrest innocent passerby either to impress their oga at the top or to extort from them. All in the name of bailing


But one thing I know is majority of igbos love Nnamdi Kanu. He was able to sent up ESN in London, 5 state governors set up EbubeAku or whatever the name is, am yet to see or hear any progress from them since their set up.

MNK was able to order seat at home from faraway country thousands, if not millions of igbos in SE complied, yet our darling dad has ordered us to link our NIN. Majority of his village people haven't even done that.

frozen70:
The reports are OK if not for the fulness of the tissues, he just need proper medical attention on it by an orthopedic doctor

Igbobi is nit far from where you did that test in yaba

From Ojuelegba take a bus going to Palm Grove and drop at Igbobi hospital

From Oshodi, take a bus going to Yaba Paml Grove and drop at Igbobi hospital then cross to the other side

I really appreciate. God bless you

frozen70:
I thank God that his bone wasn't broken, but there are more to look out for more tgst than bone

His nerves may have been affected

His ligaments may have been affected

It could be the vain supplying blood that was affected

The blood supply to the fingers may have been reduced or not supplying at all due to the injury

You don't need to panic, take him to orthopedic hospital at Igbobi for proper treatment and diagnosis before it gets out of hand

Once a part of the body doesn't move, it means no blood supply there and blood is life

I never liked the bone setters because they may cause more harm

The elbow has a joint and I hope its still intact

I really appreciate your input. I will do that right away. But don't know where this igbobi. Below is the doctors report

My brother of 11 years old had an accident while playing ball(a month plus now). He dislocated his Elbow joint. Some guys around him helped him to set it in order, tied it with bandage. Some days later the joint in the elbow got dislocated again. A friend recommend I take him to one Ijaw man nearby to get it fixed.

I took him there, he charged me before commencing treatment. he rubbed him some oily substance and pushed the dislocated joint to the rightful position. And tied it with stick and bandage

My brother went through hell that day. All the pain killer drugs and sleeping tablets I got for him. None worked. I took him back there the following day because of the pains. The Ijaw man loose the bandage.

I took him home and within some hours his hands started swellow to the extent that he couldn't lift the hand up due to the heaviness. I got a drugs (hydrex) for him. Within some 5 days the swellow hand dried up. Now I noticed that the fingers aren't twitching again. And the elbow is stiff. I took him to the ijaw man he starts messaging it once in 2 days for 2 weeks plus. But there wasn't any improvement neither was the finger moving again. I got really pissed and told him to stop the treatment.

I took him for xray to ascertain if he have a broken bone but the xray reviewed that the bones are not broken and bones are in the rightful position.


I want to know if there is any hospital or any orthopedics that can tell me why his fingers has not been twitching for a month plus now and why the elbow is stiff before taking him to hospital again.





Below is the xray results. Am in Lagos

Lalasticlala pls can you help me move it to the front page
