I have had a big bruise on my knees as I fell off the bicycle. My friend put a large band-aid for me. Now I want to remove it and all the hair around my knees is killing me when I try to remove this band - aid. Please advise.

I constantly hear that lean meats such as chicken, turkey, and fish are always preferable to red meat because of its high fat content. But it's also got a great deal of iron ... What are the nutritional and other benefits of beef, and should I keep it in my diet? Thanks.

My friend told me the best time to take is just before going to sleep. My pharmacist friend told me to take just after dinner. Which is correct?

I've been dealing with depression for awhile and have just recently been put on Lexapro for it. I've also been going to talk therapy for that. I'm a college student who lives at home and my family is very pessimistic about everything. My boyfriend just broke up with me a few days ago, so that's not helping matters any. What can I do to feel better and more positive about my life? I don't mean quick fixes like alcohol or one night stands or anything....I mean some things I can do to feel more like a whole person, to help me have a more positive, optimistic outlook on things.

My cramps are actually so bad that I can't move until I get a large dose of ibuprofen in me. Even after that I still feel really uncomfortable and nauseous and like I can't do anything. Any tips on how to make menstrual cramps less painful?

I believe that it is dangerous to take antidepressants to achieve happiness because it takes away control from the person to feel in charge of their own life.

I believe depression is an unpleasant feeling that should not just be ingnored but looked at and try to find out what is the root of the suffering and then find ways such as changing attitudes or accepting a painful reality. That way you can truly permently take control of your life and transform it into something positive.

I think using antidepressives is almost like using alcohol to numb pain and escape reality instead of taking charge of it.

What do you think?

I have had breathing difficulties for the past four years. Every time I go to the doctor, they tell me it's asthma. I know it's not. They give me some medication, inhalers or steroids. They make no difference. I go back, they give me the same stuff again.

This is the NHS, and they want you out the door in 5 minutes, they don't want to treat anything tricky, I understand that, but I'm getting desperate.

What can I do to get some appropriate treatment?
