Health - 29 April 2007

I was at a fundraiser yesterday and I was running I tried to jump over this chain which was I swear no more than 6 inches off the ground I had made this jump several times before but for some reason I didn't make the jump this time and I fell. I landed on my knees. one knee cap just got really scraped up, the other one I landed on it funny and it really hurt. I heard it pop and i could still walk on it and i can still walk on it but if I turn around i feel a pop and it hurts. I can't bend it that well without feeling it pop and it hurting and if i try to stop real fast I feel a pop and pain can any one tell me what might have happened. It doesn't hurt when I stand on it or walk but I don't know... should i see a doctor? I don't want to be taken off the sailing team which might happen if I see a doctor. Can anyone help me? Please

I am 5'11 and I weight a little under 160 lbs. I am only 14 years old so I feel a little uncomfortable around my friends because they are a lot smaller than me. But I eat healthy and I workout atleast once a day. I am playing basketball, softball, and track right now and I just get really frusterated because I cant get my body to look the way I want it to. What can you suggest that would help be get those hard areas, abs, thighs, and butt to get in better shape?

My sister has been on a birth control for about a month now and today she decided she doesn't want to be on it anymore. Could she get pregnant easier this way since the pills are in her system now and she abrubtly gets off of them? She doesn't have profile on here and she wanted me to ask the laidies on here for their insight on the situation. She says thanks in advance

She is 5'1", 102 lbs, and 13 years. She feels a little fat but she also plays volleyball and has a lot of muscle. Is she overweight?

I honestly feel like I don't fit in anywhere. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't due drugs, and I don't party which is probably obvious from everything else I said I don't do. Pretty much everyone I know does one or more of the above (pot is as far as they go as far as any type of drugs) and I just don't feel comfortable around them. It's not because of what they do I just feel like an absolute prude.
Just to let everyone know I really don't know what type of answer I am looking for. I'm just really depressed right now and I am expecting either the uplifting response of "No, you are not pathetic but responsible" or the rather negative response of "Get over yourself". Today is a freebie, so reassure or ridicule away.

I'm 14, about 5'3, 130 pounds and size 5/7. I want to lose 10 pounds and be 120 pounds...and try to get into a 3/5 jeans. Approximately how fast can I do this and what do I need to do in order to achieve this goal? I already eat healthy and I haven't had any junk food for a few months now. Thanks for all the help! If you have any tips too, those would be VERY much appreciated!

I have been depressed for quite a while now, and now that I have some money I have decided to get on antidepressants. I know that it was caused by some childhood trauma, and that I can't stand living like this anymore. My body aches my mind is in a constant fog, I am negative, tired, and forgetful. I have tried but I can't simply wish this away or just deal with it. Under the circumstances I would like to do this without my parents knowledge, any advice would be greatly appreciated. (im 16)

I don't mean to generalize.. but why is it that most heavy people have lighter and louder voices... It seems all very obese people I know can talk/yell louder than the thinner ones and their voices are very light.

When i was playing in the grass, I got up and found zillions of itchy red spots on my legs. I know they aren't chicken pocks but is it an allergic reaction?

They said to remember to be patient with Mrs. Wiggy. That is probably going to be harder than it sounds. It's almost impossible now, and she is doing all she can to make it harder. She hasn't touched me intimately since Feb. 14, 2007. She said that the memories of the abuse by her former is the reasoning. Well I understand that. Here is the part that baffles me. Her sister is a Hooter's girl. Her sister is 22, single, and has no kids. My wife is 26, married, and has two kids. One of them is an 8 year old girl. She claims that when I flirt with her, she takes it as sexual harassment. I thought you were supposed to flirt with your spouse (dumb me). Guess what. It seems that now my wife is about to become a Hooter's girl too! Ain't that a hoot (pun)? She mentioned nothing of this to me. She just put in an application, and they hired her. My point is this. She has enough problems right now with therapy, and trying to get over the past. Why she feels it necessary to do this now,

Long story short, I've had porcelian over metal crowns over my 2 front teeth for the past 10 years. I haven't had a single problem out of these crowns, then suddenly last night the left one became loose. I bit down on a cinnimon bun, of all things, and felt sort of a pop, bit down entirely and my bite was off. Went to the ladies room and checked it out, the crown shifted bottom forward.

I have had no odd taste or odor out of these crowns that typically signify a failing cement bond. I recently switched to Rembrandt toothpaste, if that possibly has anything to do with it. Why would the bond suddenly fail without warning?

The second issue is that ever since placement, my gums have been slightly blue. They do not bleed and they are not painful. I brush and floss daily, so it can't be due to poor dental hygine. No dentist has ever been able to recommend something to fix the blue tinge. I plan on asking my dentist AGAIN tomorrow if there's anything I can do.

Advice appreciated.
