I get bruised easily. If I accidentally hit the table, I get bruised. Maybe it's because my skin is sensitive or I'm not eating enough vitamins and minerals. Do I also need to put any cream on my skin to prevent that?

Hi there,
About 6 hours ago when I came home from school an absurd dizziness came on with me...
I don't understand... I was fine before I came home.. I also take multivitamins with green tea extract and I have been taking them everyday...
I'm still suffering from this dizziness. When I came home I had lunch and a glass of water thinking that would help the dizziness to go away... It didn't seem to help.. so I went for an hour nap.. that still didn't help...
About 5 mins ago I took an Advil thinking that maybe it's just some kind of headache without the pain..
Is it possible that I have a migraine?
Please let me know your thoughts... Thanks!

My left side of my chest (peck) is bigger than my right side even though I'm right handed. I was just wondering how would I be able to even them out?

I let the bar fall on my upper chest on inclined bench press and since I had no spotter it laid on my upper chest for a few seconds before someone came to help me. I don't think I injured myself. How would I know if I injured myself and what could have happened.

PS: Please don't lecture me about using a spotter, I always use them but the weigths were so light I could do 15 reps with them, I just screwed up since I'm not used to inclined down bench press.

Im 15 years old and for the past year I have had major problems with my weight. I eat all nateraul food,small portions and i exercise every day. I've been overweight since I was little.Everyone around me has been driving me insane;those skinny chicks who are couch potatoes and eat nothing but junk food and look down at me for being fat,my friend who is also fat who thinks were in the same boat (but points out that shes still thinner than me),when she isn't even making an effort to loss weight,my very good friend who i go shopping with and she looks amzing in everything,while i look horriable.I've starved myself before,but right now I eat very healthy,but im still not losing any weight. It pisses me off so much that that my parents gave me such bad eating habits, but i broke them,but the weights still not coming off.I feel like I get no reconigtion for eating healthy and exercising , weight isnt coming off and no one says "good job".

I'm training for the Chicago marathon and after a couple of weeks of running 5 miles three times a week I get pretty bad shin splints and have to stop training for a while to let them heal. Any exercises to prevent this from happening or other advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried everything (yes, both proactive and murad, Retin A, birth control pill...I only use noncomedogenic makeup) and nothing works. I'm ready to ask a dermatologist about Accutane, but would like some feedback from those who have had experience with it. I could deal with joint pain and dryness, but wouldn't mess with it if *depression* is a real possibility as a side effect. I know it's listed, but so often EVERY side effect known to man is listed on these things! Did anyone experience depression on it?

Also, is this a drug that I would need to be on indefinitely to cure my acne? Or, do you just take it for a few months and are able to stop---and your acne is better. I don't want to have to take it forever! Thanks for any input you can give.

Alright, my stomache is bigger than it should be, but my arms and chest are smaller than I would like them to be.

I have started running, and I can run for a very long time. I run about one hour at about an average of 6.0. If I continue to lift weights, not eat too late and run, will that be good enough? I also play basketball. I am about 5'8 with about 173 pounds. I need some help.

It's annoying, I don't want to apear as though i can't play sports and the like when I am very good. Most of the time I don't get picked early because it looks like I can't play but I am very good, I always have to prove myself.

Is it the type of food one eats or is it exercise?

I know for sure that one’s genes apply to this.

Well, I am Italian, so most of the things I eat often have alot of olive oil, and I have very very low blood pressure, most people dont even know how can I still stand up,

I heard olive oil lowers your blood pressure
My Mom has higher pressure than me, but its still alarmant
I am very calm, I almost dont know what stress is.
I eat alot of Cacao....pure.

But could olive oil be the main cause...how do I get my pressure to at least 100-110 Systolic and/or 70 Diastolic?
