I got my navel pierced over 2 months ago at a very sterilized studio. Last week i went body boarding and cleaning it out afterwards, but now i developed a keloid on the bottom hole (the bottom of my navel) it keeps bleeding and hurts. I know not to take it out, and i have started to do sea salt soaks and such again.
do you think the keloid will go away? please help, any info would be appriciated

thank you.

any professional piercers/docotrs/ or nurses help me =)

My friend and I have recently gotten ahold of some boxing gloves and mouth gaurds. We have begun boxing together and are currently attempting to organize our own fight club. We are trying to recruit fighters, starting with our close friends. We will have everyone begin training, and then setup weight classes. Then eventually, though it is illegal, place bets on our fights and invite spectators to do so as well. We'll take safety precausions, gloves, mouth gaurds, etc. and will have a first aid kit on hand. Besides, we're doing it for the excercise, kind of.

3 days ago my arms started feeling really sore. All I could remember doing out-of-routine was toting a case of water. But the next day they were even sorer, and my legs too - quads and calves. I feel like I competed in a triathlon! A couple days behind me my husband mysteriously feels the same way. He has had a nasal cold/sore throat for a couple weeks now, too. My throat is bugging me a little now too. This is so bizarre...could it be some sort of virus or bacterial infection? Neither of us did any new workout. We're both physically fit.

So this is my situation...and I'm wondering if I'm totally insane or if other people have the same problem...?

Never really had the balls to kill myself, even though I've wanted to for years. But I still think about how much happier I'll be when I die pretty regularly. Influences in my childhood were often negative so now I am almost always negative about things and I just found out recently that I actually don't have control over my emotions. I've been mean to people without even realizing it for years. I perceived myself as being nice as possible, but apparently I wasn't. I lost many relationships/friends because of this and I've had a bad relationship with my dad my whole life. My mom is the only one I really trust.

Been seeking psychological help lately, and seeing a psychiatrist. Still not really giving me motivation to do anything or care much. Still hate myself. I know I have no reason to, but I just grew up that way.

I was wondering if there was any kind of cancer that could appear out of the blue (or be growing or becoming worse without the person knowing until it was too late), or just make a person feel ill, just a common disease/sickness such as the stomach bug or the flu or a virus or regular sickness, but when diagnosed, find out it is a cancer that is terminal. If anyone knows anything, even just a type of cancer, I would be grateful if you could answer. Anything you know I'm sure would be helpful.

I have been smoking for about 6 years. I love the feeling of being high, I love to go do stuff when I am high, when I have nothing to do and am bored out of my mind getting high is always fun. I want to know if there is anything else out there that could make you feel this way. I dont like to smoke ciggerettes, I do drink but only once in a while. Any suggestions out there. Anyone know of anything that I could smoke maybe that gives off a little buzz?
