Hi....I am 18 years old, and I have asthma. I got my flu shot on Saturday. i wasn't feeling 100%, but not ill/ Yesterday, i rode back to my college with my roommate, who was complaining of a sore throat, sniffles, and he had a slight cough. Today I feel a little under the weather, as if I might be getting sick. can the fact that i got the flu shot and no aw am feeling sick make me ge even sicker? please help!

I was wondering if doing Tae-Bo every day would lead into overtrained muscles. I ceirtanly do not want that.

I'm planning on doing the Billy Blank's Basic Training Bootcamp (I have the DVD) that it's a very complete, every other day. And the days I don't do that I was planning on doing the one that is focused on abs and glutes.
The thing is, in the Basic Training Bootcamp I will be working my abs and glutes. Obviously not as intensively, but I'm afraid I won't be giving them enough time to rest to have optimum results.
What do you think?

On a side note, I've seen some people here suggest doing like 400 crunches a day to get great abs, but isn't that wrong? Muscles grow when they rest, not while you're excercising,. Although, I've heard that after an amount of time you start burning a little fat around the area due to the heat or something like that. I don't really remember well.

Wow. I started getting nasty brown stains all over my teeth a few weeks after I started using the Crest Pro-Health Rinse. I've never had a problem with staining before. My dentist told me that it was the Crest rinse and told me to quit using it.

Since then, I've done a lot of internet research, and I've found that this is a common problem. Check out the reviews for this product on Amazon. Yikes!

Also, I visited several dental professional sites and found similar information. I have complained to both Crest (crest.com) and the Food and Drug Administration (www.fda.gov).

Has anybody else experienced staining problems from the Crest rinse? Thanks.

I take Advil for the cramps. It helps relieve them a little. Do any of you know a good at-home remedy besides Advil?

Seriously, In the past i'm alway afraid to let this girl give me oral. I wash really well. But a few hours later they start to smell a little weird. I dont' know what to do. I thnk she can smell a little odor when she's right next to my privates. Also i know i can't be alone with this situation. I'm sure many other guys get oral. Do they care if there girl smells there privates and it's a little funky or what? Or is a little funk normal? They never seem to stay fresh for long.

I'm having a problem w/ my fingers swelling during the day. The only place I'm having a problem is where my wedding ring is. When I first got my ring it fit but now (a year later) my fingers are swelling so bad throughout the day I that its actually drying out that area where my ring is and also making impressions of the ring in my ring finger. What can I do to relieve this pain and dryness that causes me to scratch it that causes more pain? I've tried everything from putting vitamin e to neosporin. But it doesn't help at all. My ring still fits my finger just my fingers swell up so bad. Help!

Latly I've been getting pimples more and more often. Beforr I would get a pimple and the rest of my face would stay pimple free. Now, I get like 5 on my forehead, 2 on one cheek, 1 on the other a few very small ones on the side of my face and like 1 on my chine. I seriusly don't know what to do. I'm starting to hate the way I look, and it really affects my self asteem. Sometimes I don't even want to com out of the house, because I feel so ugly. What should I do??, It's becoming not only a skin problem but a confidence problem as well.

If someone is stupid enough to shave all their pubic hair- or even perhaps needed shaved for medical procedure- gosh it HURTS growing back. So far best cure has been lidocaine gel topped with a powder made by monistat. But yikes this is painful.

Is it true is people wax it that it doesn't grow back bristly? I will NEVER do this again unless there is a way to avoid the pain growing back.
