Health - 5 June 2007

Last night, I was shaving. I did not realize that my bug bite was still there and went over it with the razor. I ripped a small but considerable amount of skin off the area. I did not have a Band-Aid large enough, so after the blood flow slowed, I put gauze over it. I secured it with Band-Aids. Today I went swimming, but forgot to remove the gauze. I went to take it off, and it seemed to have started to heal TO the gauze. My mother suggested soaking it in the water. Needless to say, that did not work. Does anyone know how to remove the gauze without ripping it off? I started to do that, but that reopened the soar. Anyone who has had expirience with this, your advice is appreciated!

i chipped my tooth a few years back and my dentist has been doing something to build the tooth up each time it breaks. im not too sure what she does but its not particularly strong nor does it blend in with the rest of my teeth very well. i was wondering as one appointment she stated that when i get older i can have a tooth crown which will be very strong and blend in better. i dont really want to wait much longer to have this done as it really makes my teeth look bad and makes me feel as if all the years of having braces were a waste. i am 16 next tuesday and was wondering how much longer i should expect to have to wait for this tooth crown?

hi, i am a 18 yr old white male and currently stand at 5'8 1/2. My mother is 5'7 and my father is 6'1. I have never had a growth spurt, my growth has just seemed to steadly increase as the years went by. At the end of the year 2006 i was shorter than mom, and from the time of december 06 to may 07 i have passed my mother up in height and grew literally 2 inches. I also just started getting light to darkish facial hair, just no mustache hair yet sadly. People say i look like im about 15 because i have a baby face and im 18, so i might possible be a later bloomer. This month my legs have been bothering me terrible with dule aches in the shins/quads and sometimes my calves. Ive been real tired latelly aswell as if 10 hours asleep each day isnt enough for me. Could i be going into some pubertal growth spurt and jump to my fathers height in the next few years or so? Ps. i hardly grew in high school maybe a inch or so, i just recently started to shoot up once i turned 18 kinda odd eh?

i have been working out 4 times a week for 2 months and dieting. i have lost a total of 4 pounds, that's it. i have another 30 before i would feel ok about my weight and another 60 to reach my goals. i have just signed up at a new gym and started going 5 days a week. i do an hour of cardio and then do a little lifting. i have been doing weight watchers (unofficially) and that isn't working for me, because according to their diet i don't eat enough, but trust me i do eat. 5 small meals a day with a snack or two in there. when i snack it is either some sort of fruit or a motts applesauce in the afternoon. my diet consists mostly of weight control oatmeal, lean pockets and fresh veggies, salad, and grilled chicken (george forman grill). what am i doing wrong? and how can i beat all this extra weight i have?
p.s. please don't respond with things like "stop eating, and get excersise because i am really trying here and not having much luck.

I have just bought some clenbuterol to help me lose weight but I don't know how much to take and how long for! I heard you are meant to take it in cycles increasing and decreasing the dose.
