I'm out of town and my doctor refuses to call out eardrops for what is obviously an ear infection. The whole left side of my face is swollen accompanied by severe pain in my ear. Does anyone know of any home remedies that I can try for the pain? Can I sue my doctor for malpractice for withholding service? He said he had to look in my ear before he would prescribe anything, which duh, isn't possible since I'm four hours away!

is there a sports bottle that has a top like a sippy cup where if it tipped over, the liquid wouldn't spill? i figure it would be more convenient than a water bottle because you don't have to stop and unscrew the cap.

I'm planning to student volunteer in hospitals close to my home, and I'd love for anyone to share experiences or stories they have. Your most touching memory, things I should know, the kind of people you meet, etc. Anything!!!

Also, how old do you have to be to volunteer (respectively) in retired homes and mental wards. I understand the responsibilty and skills required with the second one, so it's probably 18.

I have a 4yr old daughter and had no problem getting preg and the pregnancy was very easy. We started trying again 2 years ago. We get pregnant easily but I have misscarried the past two pregnancies. With the last preg I had some lower back pain and I misscarried. I am now having lower back pain and I am afraid that this is a sign that I will miscarry for a 3rd time. I am not spotting or anything like that but I am worried.

I am driving my boyfriend to and from the hospital for his surgery to repair his torn ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) in his knee. This is an outpatient procedure. Has anyone had this surgery before? Give me an idea of what to expect from him afterward...when the anesthesia wears off, etc. How can I help him feel comfortable? Give me some ideas!

I dont know where the smell comes from. It doesnt smell like normal BO to me. But its a nasty funk & to make things worse he stands too close when he talks. Makes me want to gag.
