Health - 26 May 2007

I believe I have a inflamed lymph node near the left jaw. Whenever I open my mouth or chew that area hurts. It is also a bit swollen, in the mirror my left side seems to jut out a bit. I have no fever, chills, or any symptoms besides the slight pain and appearance. I tried to put on some antibiotics and used a cold compress and it worked a little bit. Should I try anything else or perhaps see a doctor? I will see if any new symptoms develop tomorrow. Thanks for all the help |!

babysitting cousin today
all aunt said when she dropped him off was that he felt sick yesterday
when he woke up (came early in morning so he took a nap)
he said he had thrown up like 4 times yesterday, but he feels ok today
he said he didnt really have any other symptoms
he hasnt eaten since yesterday, and the last time he threw up was like last night but he said "I didnt even know I threw up" (hes only 6 so i dont really get what that means, maybe he didnt wake up) hes been at our house for 5hours
will i catch it if he was sick yesterday?
is he probably still sick?
what can i do to not catch it?

I'm only 15 and i've noticed that i have many red lines accross my butt. I am not at all over weight, and am considered quite slender. I have not had any rapid weight gain/loss.... I guess my butt may have gotten a bit bigger, but i dont think enough to cause as many marks as i have. Is there anything I can do to get rid of the awful marks?!

When I sleep out, like at a friends house, I start to feel sick, like nausea, and sometimes even throw up. I don't know wy this happens to me, but it prevents me from doing a lot of things socially. Please help me ot understand why I do this to myself.

After falling and hitting a rock solid sheet of ice, my boyfriend's big toe experienced severe trama. The toenail was still attached, but we knew it would fall off eventually. It did fall off about a month later, but now (two month after it fell off), only about half of the nail is grown back. Wondering what kind of remedies might help to encourage faster regrowth. Right now he is using neosporin and covering it with a bandaid. Any help?

I am having infection in my stomach from the past 10 days. My bowel habits have changed and my acidity is really high. I release gas every now and then. I also have pain in my stomach. Sometimes a pinching pain to the left and sometimes to the right. After consulting my doctor, he suggested me some medications. The results in the ECD and ultrasound seem to be clear. My mom was complaining a little bit about my temperature. It's fluctuating between 98.3 - 99.3. Do you think it's a threat of any kind or should I continue my current medication? I still feel uncomfortable in my stomach all day.
