Getting water clogged in your ear is annoying! That’s why I wrote McKeon Products who manufacture Mack’s Earplugs and ear drying aids…
Dear Ear Uncloggers:
Sometimes my ears get clogged after a shower. All I know is the water found a way in, but no matter how hard I try to shake it out nothing happens. It’s [...]
A few things need to be drilled into the heads of dentists. The American Dental Association seemed like a good place to start…
Dear Toothsayers,
No one knows more about dentistry than the American Dental Association and that’s why I seek your advice. Can you put out a small tri-fold brochure containing mandatory rules of etiquette for [...]
I found a product called Tough Titties Nipple Rub. It’s for “nursing mums.” So I sent a letter, got a response and posted “The Nipple Effect.”
The owner of the company — LeastLikely2Breed — unexpectedly discovered the post. I learned that after she left a comment. Beyond the responses, I never get any insight into what [...]
Airborne, a best-selling supplement that “helps support your immune system,” has taken heat over the years regarding its connection to the cold. Past advertising claims have led to legal claims. Ironically, there is one fact they advertise that is true and I just don’t get it. So, I sent this inquiry requesting an explanation…
Dear Immune [...]
A product for “nursing mums” caught my attention. It’s called Tough Titties Nipple Rub. That got me wondering: If Tough Titties helps women with sore nipples, could it also be effective for men that share the same problem? I reached out to the company, LeastLikely2Breed, to find out…
Dear Nipple Rubbers:
I came across your Tough Titties [...]
Something needs to be done about chronic coughing. It’s getting harder to go anywhere without encountering someone who’s hacking or kuhcking. I pleaded with Cadbury, makers of Halls Cough Drops, to ramp up their cough containment efforts at cinemas in particular. Here’s why…
Dear Cough Stoppers,
I’m suffering from Coughaphobia — the fear of people coughing uncontrollably [...]
The female anatomy is complicated enough, but here’s a hot flash: it’s even crazier to understand during menstrual periods. Midol Menstrual Complete took that confusion to a whole new level for me, so I reached out to Bayer HealthCare for answers…
Dear Makers of Midol:
As a man, there’s only so much I understand about menstrual cramping. [...]
If you — or anyone you know — has itchy or inflamed hemorrhoids, you know they’re a pain in the ass. Ohio State University Center for Minimally Invasive Surgery states, “Everyone has hemorrhoids, but not everyone is bothered by them.” I wanted to be ready in case one ever bothers me, so I consulted Wyeth [...]
How I caught a cold sore without having a cold or even so much as the chills is beyond me. I could have worn a surgical mask for 12 days and hoped no one noticed. Instead, I tried Abreva. That experience got me pumped up in more ways than one. So I popped this product [...]
What’s the best way to deal with dryness? Reach out to experts experienced in ending droughts, like the company that makes K-Y Liquibeads…
Dear Vaginal Moisturizers:
I think K-Y Liquibeads are an intriguing product and I don’t even have a vagina.
I’m not sure how K-Y Liquibeads work, but do their moisturizing powers extend beyond the vagina region? [...]
