If we consider, number of smokers/1000 people you will find that 25 or 30 years ago, people used to smoke much more than nowadays.
Why Health Authorities never publish figures showing a decrease in the lung cancer incidence, if any.

I just recently(about 4 days ago)had my tonsills and adenoids removed and some bone reduction from inside my nose.I'm 29 years old and completely understand the pain is much more severe in adults than it is for children...and trust me,days 3 and 4 have been very severe so far.I was given liquid oxycodone/acetominophen for the pain but this is barely cutting it for me.Plus the medicine burns going down.I seem to be taking more than prescribed to help with the pain which I know isnt healthy but the medicine barely works and leaves me with a huge headache.Does anyone know if there are any other kinds of liquid medication that are stronger than what I am taking and that work better?Plus any other helpful hints to get through this would be appreciated...thanks.

My 27 yr old son was told he has acid reflux. So he has been taking Nexium for a year now. This "once a day" pill, is how it's advertised, but he takes 2 a day, (per doctor's approval). He still has problems. So is it reallly acid reflux, or something else? I am really getting concerned, but his doctor's just say the
same thing when he goes to see them. Anyone else have this experience, or suggestions? Appreciate your input

This is a men's forum so if you're under 16 or a lady, please stay off this forum unless it's to ask questions. Wrong advice can be given by someone too young or the opposite sex, and some guys here might be taking these opinions seriously. Thank you.

a couple of days ago my back started hurting me and it has gotten progressively worse... i can't think of anything i did to it but it's gotten so bad that i can't bend at all and the smallest movement sends sharp pains up and down my spine... i don't think it's a sprain i have sprained my back before and this feels different... but i have to work tomorrow and i work with kids... i don't have time to go to a doctor or anything and icepacks aren't helping... what should i do???


oh, yeah, the only other time i have had a serious problem with my back was a couple of years ago at vbs when a child slammed his fist down right near my spinal cord... could that have anything to do with it? it's been so long ago but i can't think of anything else that could have possibly caused this pain....

Not a self-help book or a book that just lectures about it. I am looking for one that has been written by someone who has suffered from major depression and tells of their experience. I have read Sheila Walsh's "Honestly", and have ordered Brooke Shields' "Down Came the Rain" although it is about post-partum depression. But can't find any other good books. Any suggestions?

what a night!My grandchild came over and got into a med bottle of Tramadol 50MG.He handed me a wet pill,anyway we made him throw up took him straight to the ER.I feel really bad this happened, i know this was my fault,i forgot the pills were in my purse.Heres my question,we were there within 20 mins ,we signed in and sat for two and a half hours without seeing anyone!He was very active in waiting room,but still should'nt they have taken blood as soon as we got there?I called posion control in the waiting room ,so after three hours without seeing anyone and he was fine,we left.Posion control said if he was awake and active just watch him for 6 hours,which is what we are doing.Im sure he spit it out but it worries me that we did'nt get a blood level,but was'nt the point moot after three hours?!
