I wake up every morning with the worst pain in my throat. It hurts to swallow. It feels like dried up mucas/flem is lodged in the throat and all day my throat feels dry besides the mucas that keeps building up. Is there anythin I can do for this. Also I play varisty baketball so do you think this will decrease my endurance.

So im 14 years old and im constantly worring every little thing.I've always been like this since i was a little kid,mostly i'd just stay up all night worring about stupid little things. In the past year I stopped drinking soda all the time and my sleeping patterns got much better and i stopped worrying so much,But now its came back and i worry about unreasltic things and its driving me insane. I have never told anyone about my constant worry because i worry about telling anyone.
Whats my problem and what should i do?

Sorry, I don't know what they're called! I have always had very good natural muscle tone around my waist and abdomen, but recently it has slightly slackened.

is there any way sex can be made less painful? would masturbating or fingering help out before having sex? i am kind of afraid that it will hurt too much because it will be my first time, so is there anything that could help me before i do it?
thanks in advance.

My dad had a stroke this year of January. Fortunately he can still talk but his left side is limpy and weak. Sometimes he has pain on his left side and the doctor can't explain it. Physical therapy is too expensive even after his med. benefits covered 20%. So he stopped getting treatments. What can we do to help him gain strength on his left side again? Will he always limp when he walks now? Does anyone know where we can get help to pay for his medical bills? I know he's depress inside because he feels limited. I want to help him but I have no idea anymore what to do. Thanks in advance!

this person is bothered by 'techy terrorists' ie she thinks she is being monitored by the appliances in the house,would you tell them it isn't real /or let them continue to believe it is real.Not violent.I know the person needs to be assesed.and probably a good med would help,but do you tell her that the thoughts are bizzare,does that make things more traumatic for them.she is otherwise very pleasant to be around ,except when the unreal arguments occur between her and ...THEM

I've had strep for a week and after getting stronger anti-boitics, I'm starting to feel better. However, the medicine has given me dry mouth, a double ear infection and many other things.

Also my mucus has mixed in with my blood so it is like a pinkish color. Is this a good sign or bad?

I'm 14 years old and overweight. I'm trying not to tell anyone about me losing weight because I want to try and do this on my own (I like being independent). 2 weeks ago I tried losing weight by eating less junk food and about 800 calories a day. I lost about 6 pounds. However, the following week, we had company and parties and I couldn't resist myself from shoving food into my mouth...and i gained 5 pounds. Now I'm trying to lose weight again AND not gain weight again. This week I've been eating:
breakfeast-3/4 bowl of cereal & organic milk
lunch-ham & turkey sandwich and a small snack
afternoon snack-3 crackers, 4 thick pretzels, a candy cane
dinner-usually 1 and a half cup of rice and some meat/vegetables
(2 weeks ago I ate less than this and last week I ate like twice as much as this)
Does anyone have any other tips on what I should do to lose weight?

Hi, I have a 6 month old, and am finding it very hard to get back into shape. I've lost some of the baby weight, but I need more help! My major problem is time. I work fulltime and am pooped by the time my son goes to bed, so I just go to sleep.
I'd rather not take any pills.
I'd love any advice!
