Health - 15 April 2007

I took my son to the doctor a few days ago and the doctor said he had a viral infection and a ear infection. he had bumps all over his face and his nose was bleeding. His ears were also red inside. I don't know if his throat was sore because hes too young to tell me. My neice went with me to take him to the doctor and she forgot to mention the fact that she still had strep and she was holding son and standing close to me. The next morning my throat was hurting really bad.My throats has been hurting really bad for two days and my ears and my teeth and also my head. Today when I got up my head feels a little better and my ears a little better and also my teeth but my throat doesn't feel any better at all. Ive been gargling with salt water alot but it doesnt help. When I swallow it hurts really bad. Its hard to eat because of it. I have been drinking alot of vitamin c. I don't have insurance and can't afford to go to the doctor. Does anyone have any ideas what is wrong with me?

Ok, so for about a year I've been having chronic stomach pains. Sometimes it's stabbing, sometimes twisting, sometimes just dull aches. They never stay in one spot. Sometimes they're at the left upper side of my stomach, the middle, in one of the bottom corners, etcetera. Sometimes, while the pain is occuring, it'll actually move from one part of my stomach to another and I can feel it's transition. When these occur, I occasionally find it difficult to breathe. the usually last at least fiveminutes, sometimes longer. Does anyone know what this is or what I should do? I'll probably get some stupid answers saying that you can't diagnos someone over the internet but if anyone has any ideas on what it MIGHT be, please let me know. Thanks...

I tend to procrastinate a LOT, and it shows, especially when I have to study for exams.

Can you have an anxiety attack, when you don't feel stressed, and actually feel elated? In my previous question some people mentioned that I could be experiencing an anxiety attack, since I just had a baby (4 months ago) and the stress that comes with that. I was walking with my daughter, I felt really good, healthy, happy, and really in the zone. I had stress all week, this was my relaxation time. So my question, can you experience an anxiety attack when you are really in a good mood? Any experiences??? If you have had one please describe in full detail. Thanks so much!

I'm 16 and this is really embrassing but ive always known that im a bit different to the norm "down there"coz i have dark pigmentation in between my thighs and all that area...but also my inner labia is quite long and wrinkely... i was wondering if this is normal or not...?

it sticks out of my outer labia and can be seen from the front view if im naked "down there". i really dont like it and im really ashamed of it.... however i dont want surgery coz ive heard/read about how it could go wrong.

its just i decided to look at a porn site to see if i was normal and all the other girls "bits" are totally different and look so clean and perfect. where as i look ugly. however there was one woman that looked simliar to me and there was soo many comments left describing how ugly she was down there!

i'm really worried that no one will want to have sex with me... :(

this is not a joke im being totally serious and im really upset :(

Does anyone know the pathophysiological explanation for this?

I am lookign to buy one of these mattress because I suffer from alot of back pains following a bad car accident. I wanted to know your opinion, do you recommend, do you feel more relaxed in the morning, do you get a good night sleep?
My physiotherapist says that whatever anomalies we have in our posture (I have a curvature in my lower back) this mattress will support, instead of correcting (my back should be placed straight, but this mattress would encouragemy back to curve), this is why I hesitate. Also, does it keep the shape of your body over time (like after 6 months of using the mattress every night), or the mattress always regain its original shape even after having spent so many hours sleeping on it? I would imagine the weight of the body to form a crease int he mattress, does it?
Thanks so much

I want to lose weight in my lower body. Legs, thighs, hips, etc. Someone told me to walk a lot, but what are some other techniques? Are there any diets that may help me? Not like the South Beach Diet or No Carb Diet. Something that is reasonable! My doctor says I need to keep my metabolism up by eating small meals every 3 hours, but most of the time I'm not hungry. So what can I do? Any who's tried to diet or knows what I'm dealing with please give me some info.

They say you should eat 5-6 small meals a day to keep your metabolism stable to improve weight loss, but some people say to eat 3 meals a day and not to snack inbetween??? What do people here think? :)

I have had two professions (first hairdresser for many years, now been a computer geek for several years). My hands tingle whenever I am on the computer too long (daily), or when I try to hold a phone for an extended period of time. Will I be a candidate for some type of surgery or what is the usual way they got about getting rid of the tingling.

Ok, right now its my time of the month and i noticed that when you sit down to urinate or defacate or flatulate that it pushes some of the period "fluid" out. My mom said its basically all the same muscles down there. So, if I use these muscles to push "fluid" out in the shower or on the toilet, could i shorten my period?

I am so depress, because I lost everything, job, family, friends and so on and no where to run to start. I became languid.

Since the very morning that the time changed to daylight savings, I have been so tired in the mornings. I can't seem to get going like I was prior to that. I go to bed at the same time everynight, but in the mornings instead of waking up rested, I can barely make myself get up. My husband is feeling the same way. He suggested I ask and see if we're the only ones, or if it is effecting others the same way. It doesn't seem like it should matter, but we have noticed this since day one!!!
