I injured my arm in the area of my elbow at work about 7 weeks ago and have been off work since. I finally got an MRI done about 2 weeks ago which showed 2 muscle tears, considerable edema and a hematoma. None of this seems to be getting much better. The hematoma is still rather large, pain is persistent and now the bone just below my elbow seems almost bowed out and the skin over this section of bones appears very light, it's almost as though the bone is protruding. I keep being told by the primary care doctors that I need to see an orthopedist, but workers comp has yet to authorize it. I have been given no instructions on how to care for this injury, nor have I been given an estimate of healing time. There was no opinion on why the bone suddenly looks and feels the way it does either. Also, what might an orthopedic doctor do to treat injuries like this? Any clue, anyone?Thanks!

Is it normal for your foreskin to be attached to your frenlum. I cant really explain it, but when you see pictures, the frenlum is from the head to the shaft, mine is like attached to the foreskin, so i cant really retaract it that much. Do I have phismosis or whatever that is called? What should i do about it, or is it normal

I shower regularly, but also whenever I have acne on my chest and pop them it smells moldy. I don't eat perfectly healthy, but I don't eat fast food or fried food all that often. I do drink a few times a week, and smoke. And every 4-5 months I get a pea sized(sometimes larger) sebacious cyst on the back of 1 or the other earlobes that I can't drain for a while until it surfaces. About a year ago I started being really conscious of gently washing and thouroughly rinsing behind my ears every time in the shower but it hasn't seemed to change anything. I'm at a loss....

My hand, especially, is becoming more and more numb. If I "shake it out" and keep my arm extended downward, everything's ok. Any ideas of what's going on? I have a doc appt. in 2 weeks.

I'm on Paxil and have been now for three years. It controls my anxieties and manic depression as well as post tramautic stress. I can leave the house and cross the street also. I'm ok most of the time as a passenger but getting behind the wheel and I just freak out. Suggestions?

Hi, I'm 20 years old. Has anyone ever had this happened? I didn't have a period for a full year and half until now. I've always been irregular. I've already had it for two weeks now. I've already been to the doctor, a few months prior, because I was worried. They did every type of test, and couldn't find nothing wrong. The only thing I've done different lately, is change my lifestyle *dieting/exercising*, and I thought maybe this could be the problem. Thanks, J.

My boyfriend sometimes wants me to where diapers and act like a baby. He's not a pedophile. I don't think he's crazy or anything. I know that if you want to be treated as a baby it's infantilism but what is it called when you want to treat your partner as a baby? Does this have a different name? I don't mind acting like a baby, we don't always do that either sometimes we'll do just regular old make outs. Just sometimes he wants to dress me as a baby and i was just wondering if that had a name to it. Thanks!

When girls boast that they are these tiny sizes, it turns out that these sizes aren't that tiny at all. A true size 0 measurements are 31-23-33. How many of you size 0's can honestly say these are your measurements? I've heard that some size 0 clothes have a 25/26 inch waist. That is really a size 4/6, that is a big difference.

So really all these tiny sizes don't mean that people are really that skinny, it just means clothes sizes have been downsized, without actually reducing the measurements! So what used to be a 4 is now a 2 and what used to be a size 2 is now a 0.

All this vanity sizing is just there to make women feel better about themselves, it's all BS. Why can't they just label all clothes with the true measurements. There there would be no confusion and no crap.

My daughter was hit on the foot, just below her big toe, with a horseshoe. It is extremely swollen, painful & bruised. I am sure it is broken. Does she need to go to the ER or can she wait until tomorrow and go to the doctor? It is also very cold and pale at the site of the injury. The remainder of her foot and her toes are normal in color.
