I have horrible vision (I can barely see anything a few feet in fron of me unless I'm wearing glasses.) and I was wondering If I ate lots of carrots, would be vision be perfect in just a matter of time? How long would this take of eating carrots?

He had this habbit of bowing a lot in front of temples n idols. But now a days, he has started doin d same anywhere. While sitting in a car, while walking etc. We made him see a pshych once, but after 1 or 2 visits, he stopped visiting as he dint want to take a medicine that result in drowsiness and they were giving him the same. What is this phobia? And what can be done to overcome that ? Is medicine it's only alternative? Can't this problem be solved by proper guidance & counselling ? Please answer.

Gay and bisexual African-American men become infected with the AIDS virus at a much higher annual rate than white or Hispanic gays and bisexuals, a new study shows. Each year, about 15% of gay and bisexual African-American men between 23 and 29 become infected with HIV, the AIDS virus, four times the rate among Latinos and five times the rate among whites, says the study released Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Moreover, the average annual HIV incidence for all gay and bisexual men is about 4%, which is comparable to infection rates seen in the mid-1980s when the AIDS epidemic mushroomed nationwide.

I've been playing basketball for about a month now after not playing for some time. Everything was fine until a few days ago, I woke up after playing basketball and my knee had fluid on it. I played again this week and it flared up again. Do I have to have it drained or is there something else I can do?

Thanks for your help :)

I have recently begun having sex with my boyfriend. He isn't very long but is slightly wide. Because I wish not to become pregnant we usually stop intercourse before he climaxes. Invariably he comes back in a few minutes wanting more ( I love my man). The problem is that when we begin again I am extremely tender and have pain if he trys to enter me. I do not have this pain in the beginning only if we try again. I have researched various conditions and vaginismus seems to be the closet to what I am experiencing, only it doesn't happen on the first try. Has anyone else experienced this and are there any suggestions as to what we can do about this problem.
Thanks.

My darling bf, we'll call him ANGUS... he was brought up horribly. I am guessing there was alot of neglect and abuse. Well, I don't know how to 'handle' him. He gets angry and rages. Not toward me but if I am in the vicinity, I am not immune. He's never been treated well and now he doesn't know how to process that someone cares about HIM. Angus is very affectionate, passionate, works hard, and treats me well 95% of the time. We do not fight - and that is partially because I am afraid to bring things up in fear that he will start in on one of his tirades.

I think if he was able to explore some of the emotional issues under this anger and lack of control, it may help him but I don't know how to approach the subject without him getting upset. Please... save my mind, people! A D V I C E !

Routine circumcision was popular in the UK until 1950 at about 33% nationally and 60% amongst the upper middle classes. As WHO is now suggesting it to prevent HIV should we return to routine circumcision in the UK? If not why not?

So here's my story:

I had a binge-eating problem which led me to gain 10 pounds in about 3 months. I absolutely HATE my weight now. I'm in constant discomfort, none of my clothes fit, and I'm always obsessing about food and weight!

For the past 3 or so years I've always dieted. I was the lightest I've ever been 3 years ago, and since then, I kept putting on the pounds and failing one diet after the other. Now I'm at my heaviest, and I'm so depressed. I know that exercise and low-calorie food intake is the best strategy for weight-loss, but I feel if I'm not strict I won't lose weight fast enough. I want--no, NEED--to lose about 30-40 pounds by mid-June, and I feel like fasting is the only way I can do it! Every time I eat, I have to binge, and every time I skip a meal, I end up going 2 or 3 days without eating...and that's when I feel the strongest!

I cannot eat without bingeing so I avoid it completely.

What should I do?

I recently cut my wrist...wednesday...during my shower...I was just messing around like a cutter and It cut me...Stupid to do I Know. But I have been experiencing tingling sensations in arm...off and on. The cut it self is over my vein. It isnt very deep im not sure if it got the vein or not. It was VERY red around the cut for the first evening. The next day it looked better. I was in the E.R with my mom....(she was the one in there not me) and i asked the doc about it he said it seemed ok...didnt look infected. but the cut is really red. Its about an inch long going horizontal across. not very deep tho. I have been puting anti bacterial ointment on it and have been cleaning it...but the tingling has stayed...It bled pretty decently after but cotted after about 3min or so. Should I see doc or sumthing? it isnt pain full...Any ideas?

I have them and it's a pain.

I've tried holding my breath, chugging water, drinking water to the best of my ability up side down, eating a teaspoon of sugar, breathing exercises, and roller blading down a busy street with my grandmother in her thong.

I don't have any peanut butter... I don't know what else to do. It's so annoying.
