If a person had a root canal, and that root canal went bad after years, and the denstist suggested that the person needed surgery to deal with the infection that happened from that, and the surgery did not work out well, so now the denstist said that the person should see an endo-dental professional for perhaps implants... how long should the person wait to get more endo surgery, and how painful is it, and what is the outcome?

I have been watching carefully the appearance of twelve or thirteen moles on the base of my penis.Some of them have grown to be rather large in size.They start out as white,almost like a zit then they changed colors to red and brown and with irregular edges.I have been faithfully with my wife for seven years and haven't slept around.What are these things and how do the doctors remove them?They don't bother me but it is just the appearance that is bothersome.Somebody,anybody please help me with some answers.

I have had ongoing problems with slight swelling of my eyelids. I went to my optometrist & he told me that it was from an eye infection. I took the eye drops that he gave me & the problem went away temporarily, but came back in about a week. This kept going on for almost 2 months. I would take the drops again, it would improve & then return.
I got another opinion from an optamologist who told me that the condition was caused from wearing my contacts overnite, even though I NEVER wear contacts while I'm sleeping. He prescribed the same drops.
Frustrated, I went to another optamologist who diagnosed me with blepharitis. He gave me a pamphlet about it, & prescribed Patanol(an antihistimine eye drop) , Restasis(increases tear production), & Doxycycline(antibiotic). I also have to use eyelid scrubs twice a day. I have been on this treatment for over a month & I still have some problems with my right eye, even though it's not as bad as it was.
Does anyone have any experience with this?

Hi, I am a 22 year old virgin who's planning to lose it to my boyfriend soon. Do you think it's a smart move to start on the patch already before actually doing it?

I've been suffering from ear/sinus pressure a little over a week now. I've been to my doctor and he said that I don't have an infection, just pressure. I've been taking Sudafed, with no luck. I'm now trying Mucinex D and Claritin D. No relief so far. Has anyone else ever had this happen? How long can I expect the pressure to last? It's driving me crazy!!!

I've been feeling like this for months, and I went through a stage of it once before and turned to alchol for sustinance, luckly I had a great friend who helped me pull through. This time I just don't think it'll work. I feel awful and it's effecting my studies :( But I don't know how to tell a GP how I feel, and I feel kinda self concious doing so. Any ideas on how I do it? I know I need help, I'm just scared.

I am 25 and was a mechanic for years and sold cars for a while too, but my license is suspended for 2 years for too many points and I can no longer do either. I was an A tech and made over 100K a year and the same with selling cars. I have now been unemployed for 2 months and need a job, but I do not want to take a big hit in income. I do not have a college degree, but completed some credits. If anyone has any ideas, please let me know. I live in central NJ. I had some money saved, but started a business a few years back and it did not work out as planned and there is no way to pick it back up. I will not be anywhere near breaking even when I close it. Right now I am running out of money and need to find a job. Like I said I do not want to to take a big hit, and really cannot afford too, but it will be difficult to take a big pay cut. The other huge problem is that I am bipolar and do not have the best control of my temper and I am on meds. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I have the following symptoms:
I had vertigo a few days ago with a slight ache and pressure in the ears. It felt as if it were blocked. It's lessened and I no longer feel severe vertigo (dizziness), but I still have a headache (not a migraine though). To make it worse...I'm fighting off insomnia...I can't fall asleep and when I do i wake up half an hour later feeling like i was just on the verge of sleep but can't quite fall into a deep sleep. I went to the doctor, but all he said was..."I'm not sure what you have. You don't have an ear infection. You don't seem like you have a virus. It could be BPPV or something else. Let's wait two weeks and we'll go from there." I've waited a week and it's become a pain in the butt. Has anyone felt this before?

I had kind of a sharp pain there since tuesday. It lasted about a day or so and it went away, but I also got a very bad cold. Then yesterday I was laying on my side, I guess putting pressure on my breast when I couldn't feel the right side of it. I woke up this morning and I still can't feel it. Any ideas?
