Me and my twin sister are in the same class, which is obvious. were 14 and in 8th grade. my sis is somewhat more attractive than me and gets alot of attention from the guys. Theres this one kid whos her friend who is always touching her private areas like her boobs and vagina, i see it all the time and i think it embarresses her to know that i know about it and i dont know if she likes it. She never tries to stop it but I dont know what I should do. Even one time he pulled her bra up and sucked her nipple. She sometimes talks to me about it but i think its embarresing to her and especially if are parents knew. what do i do to help her? jsut ignore it or what?

I'm very interested in having a very healthy mouth. I do have few minor gaps which I will be undergoing treatment with Invisalign in a week or two.

I want to keep my teeth forever til' the day I die...so how?

Is it okay to brush my teeth more than 3 times a day? More the better? I ask cause I would brush can brush them like 4-5 times I day..when i wake up, sleep and before and after meals.

So how can I have healthy gums too?

I'm currently 18 years of age and have had like 1 cavity my whole life.

The only problem a dentist has ever told me what that i grind my teeth so ive been concious about it and try not to anymore.

I used to smoke a little weed like once a week for 3 months but have stopped because i care more about my mouth.

I dont think any soda, just water...well, also juices and stuff like that.No candy.

Also...i heard that using mouthwash is just as effective as using floss except getting food stuck between teeth out...but in terms of killing germs and all yea.

I'm just curious what works for others when he/she has a cold. Some people swear by what works for them. It doesn't matter if it's alternative medicine, homemade/ family remedy; it can be anything that has helped you. Would anyone like to share what has helped them?

My 22 month old doesn't eat 99% of the food I give him. He never eats meats, or vegetables no matter how i try serving them (and I have tried everyway I know). Of the fruit, he will sometimes eat apple or banana and occasionally watermelon. He will eat frozen french toast, or an occasional frozen waffle, bagel with peanut butter, and many different cookies and crackers. thats about it. Per Dr. instructions I am suppose to give him what ever he wants as long as he is eating 5-6 times a day to keep his body hungry, and must take formula or PEDIASURE for vitamins, and calories. I have tried to force him to eat--nothing. I have tried not give him anything until he eats the substantial food given to him, but after 1 1/2 days, I give in. He only weighs 20 lbs depending on the day. If he doesn't want something I am trying to get him to eat, he will scream/cry and make himself gag/throw up until everyone else in the house is fed up. It is frustrating and defeating, and I am at a loss.

Have you ever taken too much insulin and had your heart race and your throat get halfway closed up, almost like anaphylactic shock?

I had a similiar reaction and I think it was from too much insulin.

Since bladder sling surgery (with cadaver tissue), I've had severe butt pain that usually goes away when up and walking around. It's worse at night and when sitting a long time. Muscle relaxers and aspirin therapy don't seem to help. It's getting worse and beginning to hurt during the day as well. Any idea what it is?

I have been reading about a liver cleanse and have been wanting to do one for quite some time. For the past several weeks I have been preparing for a liver cleanse with preliminary type things like getting a dental cleaning, and doing the parasite cleanse. I should be finally ready to do my liver cleanse in about 2 weeks or so. Im doing it to improve my general health but the primary focus is on a shoulder problem and real bad allergies. Suppossedly a liver cleanse is suppossed to unblock the bile ducts and promote more bile flow which suppossedly gets rid of your shoulder pain like bursitus. Can anyone tell me if this liver cleanse is effective and let me know of your results. Please do not respond if you dont have experience with a liver cleanse or if you dont know about it. I am doing the liver cleanse designed by Dr. Hulda Clark. thanks.

The skin under my lower lip goes through a cycle of being really dry and/or itchy, with the skin breaking or the top layer of skin peeling off.

I've changed chapsticks, switched lotions, tried exfoliating, putting on Neosporin, drinking more water and using a humidifier.

It's been like this from mid-August to now, although it seems to be getting better. Suggestions?

Also if mom had a blood transfusion after c-section and is also taken pain medication is it safe for her to be breast feeding the baby?
