i had my teeth removed 3 days ago..when i rinse gently with salt water in morning theres little brown spit in water (sorry to gross anyone out). my parents say it is normal and i have no elevating pain but i was wondering if it is normal. also does anyone know how to brush teeth because my face is really swollen so i cant brush my upper teeth and im afraid i might get cavities. any comments would be appreciated! :)

Within the last week I’ve had a sudden outbreak of freckles all over my body. That is, they look like freckles. They vary in size and are a little darker then my complexion. It would be normal to assume they are the effects of the sun but they are appearing all over my body. Not to mention, I am almost never outside more than a few minutes without sun block. About a week and a half ago I was bitten by a tick. I don’t know if that has anything to do with it. Does anyone have a clue what this might be?

i have a corn/blister/wart on my pinky toe. i have had these Dr. Scholl's patch things on them because they're supposed to get rid of them, but i was wondering if there was a quicker, easier way.

are there any tricks, like putting it in vinegar or something, that will get rid of it in a couple of days? i'd like to have it gone by tuesday if possible.

my friend showed me a picture of what looked like warts in her vagina.. I told her they looked like gential warts and that she should get tested.. She claims their not gential warts because when she was tested all the doc said she had was a uti.. could her uti lead to those bumps? what else could they be? she said they hurt all the time. but doesn't burn when she pees.. I'm at a lost what to tell her..

Hi, I am 20 pounds overweight. I was 5'4" and 150 and built like a brick outhouse, because I am a contract landscaper and allways was intil I needed my knee repaced.
Because I could not walk, run, jump climb trees , mow lawns. NOTHING. I gained 20 pounds. I am back to work almost 5 months after the surgery. I have not lost an ounce SO, I tried Alli.
BUT my fat inhtake is so low allready that I am having NONE of the supposed symptoms. I am still 200 caleries a day over my limit, of 1200, and my fat intake is suppose to nbne 36 grams a day, I am still getting 300 grams a day. While eating diet food, weight control shakes, and enough fruit to hurt a monkey! I AM HUNGRY PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This Alli diet is not working for me, first I do not annaly release any fat, because I do not intake any fat, and I am soooo very hungry. ANY suguestions?

Hi, when measuring penis size should I start from the body part and measure the length , note that there is around 1/2 inch of muscle before actually the penis starts. I am not sure when people quote their penis size at what point they start measuring. Any ideas ?

Menu:
9:30 a.m - 2 cups cherrios 1cup milk (take vitamin suppliment)
11:30 - sandwich, carrots w/ dressing
1:30 - 1/2 c. ice cream, 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
3:30 - 1/2 c. grapes, toast, string cheese stick
5:30 - 2 cups of veggies, milk, banana bread, apple
the calories add up to be 1222

for exercise, i plan to jog a mile at 4 mph in the morning, and then at other times throughout the morning and early afternoon i'll fast walk 3 more miles at 3mph. i'm also gonna do this one conditioning exercise that works my stomach, arm, and leg muscles, but it only lasts for 5 minutes - i'll do that twice a day. and then before i go to bed, i'll stretch for 20 minutes

i really wanna do this. so, what do you think? how long until i reach 120 would you say?

My sister has a breast abcess and needs to have it removed. She has chronic needle/procedure phobias. She went to see a doctor (her usual one was not there) who said removing it was usually done under a local anaesthetic but was not sure as the procedure was carried out at the hospital and not the local surgery. She is not getting it treated and is in more pain and its getting worse. Can she opt to have it removed under a general anesethetic on the nhs?

come down with a fever?
My sister's child (my neice) came down with something, but the doctors do not know what it is yet. THey ruled out cancer, as she's been thru some tests already.
Her brother had CSF b4 a few wks. ago but he of course had a very high fever, ended up going to the hospital, recovered--we're so worried about the little girl though! SHe's feeling ill but not feverish at all my sister says

I've decided to start using tampons, but I have a couple questions about it:

1. Should I only use them when the blood has already started flowing? I tried a tampon right before my period just to see how it would feel, and it felt HORRIBLE. Was that because there was no blood to make it go in/out smoothly?

2. Is it really safe to go swimming with a tampon? Will it prevent any blood from leaking out?

3. What brand do you reccomend?

I was just wondering if girls have the same "money mindedness" than guys. I mean, not all guys are responsible either, but I just wondered how you girls feel about this subject? I was taught to save money and only buy what I need, and have been quite successful until I met my girlfriend. Nothing bad, I just need to go over a budget with her and STICK to it. Are girls wise with money or is that a rare trait? I'm just curious if they all have to be trained? Also, guys...would you care if a girl had her own job or not?
