The Embarrassing Illnesses clinic is open and doctors Dawn Harper, Christian Jessen and Pixie McKenna are ready to tackle those medical problems people would rather ignore than take to a GP. Patients seen by the doctors tonight include: Nick, 55, with painful piles; Alex, who has feet afflicted with a bad case of athlete's foot and that smell like stilton; Charlotte, who's not sure what is normal down below; 20-year-old Victoria, who's worried about her inverted nipples; Nicky, who suffers from excessive gas; and 46-year-old Dave, with a skin tag problem. Plus, the Moseley Rugby Club get to grips with a new set of balls, as Dr Jessen persuades the team to examine themselves for testicular cancer. Ninety per cent of testicular cancer cases can be cured if they're picked up early enough, so the team lose their inhibitions along with their towels and strip down to the bare essentials. When is Embarrassing Illnesses next on TV? In the UK... it's next showing on more4 November 19th, 9:00pm and on more4 November 19th, 9:30pm. See more...

on embarrassing illness programme you had a lady who had bad breath and her mouth was of,you scrapped her tounge and sent it for tests,you said that she was producing to much of something i missed what that was,could you please tell me what she was producing to much of, you gave her a course of antibiotics,where can i get this test done as i have got the same problem and have tried everything to sort this problem out, how can i get in touch with you.(help)
Tracy - that woman who had bad breath had an overgrowth of the normal bacteria that lives on the tongue, called an anaerobe.
It wasn't mentioned what type of antibotic was given to her, but it has been mentioned somewhere on the Embarrassing Illnesses website that it was a course of an anaerobic antibiotic such as metronidazole. It requires a prescription, so you'll have to ask your GP if he agrees if it is ok for you.

Hi I have a dilema. My daughter who is 18, has felt like and has fainted whilst having her hair done at the hairdressers this was when she was having her hair dried and straightened. She has also fainted when she went for some camoflage treatment for her keyloid scaring. We have put it down to heat but could you shed some light on what may be causing this is happening as I am on pins everytime she has her hair done or has to go for something and am frightened that she will faint again. After the first two occasions it happened I took her to the doctors and she was given blood tests but these came back normal. Hope you can help with our dilema.
