Health - 30 October 2006

I havent had a need to go to the dentist in 6 years...I clean my teeth before breakfast, after and if i'm at home, after every meal, not forgetting of course, to brush my tongue (oh my gosh, i've come across so many who don't know about brushing plaque off their tongue, ewwwee!) and i can't go sleep without brushing either, i never floss, but apparently, an apple a day keeps the dentist away (i know, some people say "keeps the doctor away" but it works equally well for the teeth) how do you treat your choppers?

My mother has been complaining that her left shoulder hurts, usually when she moves it. She also says that every once in a while her fingers will go numb. She thinks she has a pinched nerve but my aunt says it could be bursitis. I can't get her to go to the doctor. Should I be too worried?

What can I do for my dry, itchy skin that I get everytime it starts to get cold out. Lotions seem to irritate it more than help it, I've used 5 different kinds. I drink water all day long and I use Ivory soap. I seem to be doing everything to try and prevent it yet I am tortured by it every year! What can I do to soothe my skin, especially legs which seem to get even worse because of shaving?

I have genital herpes. My kids DO NOT have it. If they used the same bar of soap or sponge or even the same towel as me, could they get herpes?

I have not had intercourse in over 5 months. Is this residue just from being turned on throughout the day?

Does anyone know how long it takes to work? Is it good immediately? Some things I know take a while to 'kick in'. Then how long does it last? A lifetime? Or do you have to keep getting 're vaccinated' the way you do with teatnus for example?

I am in high school and want to go to work on my psychology doctors after high school. However, I am also interested in Holistic medicine. This class would certify me as a Holistic Health Practitioner, and make me eligible for other board certifications. I could fit this around my schedule, but would the quality of the education be complete enough without face-to-face instructor interaction? This course has 1000 hours of books, dvds, and cds, as well as online instruction. Thanks for your help. :)

Does the diet pill mess up the metabolism, or is it because people are use to eating less when taking the pill, and when they get off of it they start eating more?

Complex , Superiority mixed with Inferiority . Problems at work?
So , I have this superority complex ( I have been pretty good at acads) but my Inferiority stems from the fact that I feel I am not a people's person . Not that I dont like to help people but...I find it difficult to be humourous . I used to be a clown sort of person at school n college , alwas turning up late etc..which made people more friendly coz of my slack nature ...
Now at work , I find it difficuult to look at someone and laugh . So I get very self conscious when I speak to other person that I drain him of his energy . Now since I started working its bothering me . I try to avoid the supeiority complex but it all becomes pretention I have this smile on this face that offends people . Coz it

Can anyone seriously advice me how to work on this ? I dont wanna be a loner ...
Do you find it difficult to look at someone and laugh ?

Woke up yesterday with my face a bit swollen - it progressively got very itchy. I woke up this morning looking like the elephant man - very swollen around my eyes & bridge of nose. My face, including my forehead & behind my ears is very itchy. I did not eat anything new or put any new products on my face in the last week or so. Took a Zyrtec last night, with no improvement. Any ideas?

Are there any real ways to do so? I just received one of those excercising bikes. If I get on the bike at least for an hour a day morning or evening, eat small meals througout the day, stop eating at least 3 hours before I go to bed and do 100 sit ups a day will this cause alot of weight loss?
