Health - 24 April 2007

I had a weight problem for the past two years and I had lost around 15 pounds due to stress. My body took a complete turn and everything that looked great, now needed some working on. i was a 36C before i lost the weight and after, i ended up being a 36A...Because of the excess skin, they sagged as well. Now I'm back to my original weight and I eat a lot to keep it up. I've gained weight in my stomach and my thighs but somehow, my breasts are still small and they're still not high up. Anything I can do to change this around?

I feel my wisdom teeth are coming in now and they are starting to hurt. It feels like my mouth is trying to over crowd itself. It feels like my mouth is impacting the teeth I already have and it hurts. Both sides inside my mouth where the wisdom teeth are growing are hurting me. I have an appointment with the orthdontist next month to see weather I should have my wisdom teeth taken out? I was wondering if there is anyway to relieve the pain until the appointment?Any suggestions?

Ok...my hands started going numb (while sleeping)about a year ago. Then eventually going to sleep during repetitive motion such as being on the computer. Now, I'm experiencing throbbing pain in the wrist area of my right hand. Short of surgery, are there some suggestions?

I've had a sore throat for a little under a week now (I've taken lemon and honey, cough drops, gargled salt water, drank vinegar...), and a few days ago my ears (mostly the left) started to sound...odd. It's not painful, but there's a sensation of a little water stuck in the ear and noises have that same underwater quality. I guess it's an ear infection, but a painless one - I hope it stays that way.

And as for the pinched nerve...It started because I sat down in a certain position a few days back and I guess it got squeezed. It's the femoral/hip nerve, as well as the lower back, where my spine connects to my hip. No matter how I sit or lie down it hurts, and walking isn't pleasant either.

Any ideas?

Hi everyone. I am 13 years old, 5'4'' and I weigh about 140 pounds. I am looking to lose some weight quickly, but in a healthy way.

I have already been weight training for a while, so I believe that is some of the problem of the high numbers on the scale But I do realize I need to change my lifestyle.

I honestly don't have that much fat on my body. But, the worst areas are my arms (working on it) abs (trying a workout from a magazine, but i could use help!) my hips, and my thighs. I think thats what most women have problems with though.

Could someone please help me?! I am actually doing Weight Watchers over the summer, Dance Team next year (if I dont make the team then dance class) and I am going to a personal trainer.

If anyone has any advice for me to help lose weight and start a healty lifestyle, it would help so much! I would love to lose some weight and finally feel good about being myself!

No abuse, no rash, no cuts, no nothing. Seemed as if it was getting better with antibodies, but, now back to square one. I dont know what to do, I am dying watching her go through this! We are scheduling a Dr for urinalysis. Dont know what that will entail. This all came outta the blue. I, along with my wife are sick to death, thinking the worst.

I intend to see an eye Dr. soon, just want to know what others experienced. My eyes are often red and irritated by days end, they are dry, tired, sore, and is hard to keep them open. Also have excessive watering and discharge most nights, and am so blind in the a.m. I cant see numbers on alarm clock...only shadows of objects for several minutes. That is scary. I occasionally have episodes of 5-10 secs where my vision just blurs, then comes back. I have contacts but have been unable to wear them for more than a couple hours (yes I tossed them regularly cuz I suspected infection). Even have probs when I wear my glasses(which I hate!)
I have tried allergy eye drops, drops for "dry eye syndrome", tossed my makeup, got new hypoallergenic pillows, new sheets, and getting more sleep. It is not pink eye, or allergies. It is year-round problem. I'm miserable right now, cuz staring at computer (which I do at work all day) aggravates it a bit. I look like I am stoned all the time. Whats the deal

I just had two tiny cavities filled on my top and bottom left molars, so the teeth are opposite one another. I have the work done between 11AM and 12 this morning and it's 7:20 now. I still can't chew with the left side of my jaw because it's far too painful. Is this normal, because I've never had two cavities filled that were opposite to one another. How long should this last?

I heard from someone with this syndrome that it begins with numbness and then works its way to pain. I've had numbness in my hands for atleast a year. Just a couple of days I started experiencing a throbbing pain in my wrist area. Am I too late? Are there any home remedies I can implement at this point?

I was thinking of majoring in pre-dentistry(sort of like pre-med) but I recently found out, its not technically a major. Its more of a support basis for students in college interested in becoming a dentist. They offer course to help and such. Now thast pre-dentistry is out what do you think I should major in? I know dental schools favor science majors also like biochemistry or biology and such, butI want a major that will help me even if for some reason my career idea changes later in life you know?

Please help me

Can you please help me answer the following question

Q:The widespread use of antibiotics has two negative effects. Antibiotics use can produce antibiotic-resistant strains because the small numbers of bacteria that aren't killed by the antibiotic are the ones that survive and breed. In addition, antibiotics can kill the body's natural microbes that help fight off foreign bacteria. Which of the following practices can help ameliorate these negative consequences and benefit patients? A. Using antibiotics derived from natural products B. Produce stronger antibiotics C. Steadily increase dosage if the results begin to decline D. Do not give the antibiotic to all people who are sick E. Changing the antibiotics used every few weeks

I noticed that I got some brown spots on my arms, nose and cheeks they almost look like freckles but their not. What are they should I be concerned? How can I get rid of them? I should also mention that I hardly ever wear sunscreen when it's hot.
