Health - 2 August 2007

I got a cold sore 3 days ago. I've gotten them plenty of times, so I began to put Carmex, a lip balm, on it. A few days before, I was hit in the lip with a soccer ball :(, and my lip on the right side swelled. Now, with my new cold sore, the left side of my lip has began to swell, too. Let me just say that I now have a GIGANTIC bottom lip. What helps swelling quickest?

Ok, I'm 15 year old going into my sophmore year and I'm like 120 (the last time I checked which was at a physical at school in 8th grade) and 5'4" and a 1/2 (and the same as above.) And every other person in my family has big boobs and it landed on me to get small boobs. =[ And I was wondering if it always depends on your family heredity.

i have a friend who is majorly depressed. she is a year younger than me, and she cuts a lot. she tries to go to her teachers to talk to them about it, but the teachers always seem to cut her off, or leave. she was recently at the hospital because of her problem. she emailed me many times. do teachers care about their students? how come they cut this girl off. they know she is suicidal.

I wanted to skip my period due to traveling so I skipped all the green placebo pills and went straight to a new pack. I believe as of now I am on the second first blue pill and I noticed I'm spotting a little bit. It's more of a light light brown/pink, less pink though. I'm trying not to be on my period for atleast a week from today. Is this normal and will it stop? I do plan on taking the next placebo pills. I just don't want my period on the 4th of August.

Update:
It's been a few days now and I'm still bleeding a little bit, I called the doc and she told me to expect breakthrough bleeding. But does this mean I'm going to have 2 periods once i hit the green pills again? And are period cramps normal with this? Why try to skip your period with bc when you are going to have something like it anyway? I learned my lesson.

spots where a wire from a bra would hit, but the thing is i have been wearing a sports bra that does not have a wire all summer. anyway they don't hurt and they only slightly itch every now and then. i have heard that you can get yeast infections under your breast but i don't know what the symptoms are. please tell me anything you know on this subject.
i thought maybe it was a rash but it's like the patches are hardly even raised up. in some places my skin is flat and not raised up even the slightest bit.

Ok, this is for serious responders only.... I am in desperate need to lose weight. I don't want to take the eay way out throught surgery. I am not knocking anyone who has had the surgery but I feel I should lose the same way I gained. I recently (two days ago to be exact) started taking wellbutri(which is a anti-depressant) due to my weight. I am currently 100 pounds over weight! Please, if anyone has any advice for me or any encouraging stories please feel free to share... I will be anxiously waiting!

I have recently read that 1 in 150 children are diagnosed with autism which is significantly higher than the 1 in 166 that has become the common figure. At this rate we could eventually see 1 in 25 children diagnosed or perhaps one day even 1 in 4. If we can't figure out what causes this or how to cure it, it could one day overwhelm us as a nation if not a species.

Do you think that this could ever be a possibility and if so what could we do about it?

I am writing this for my husband. He is currently laying in a dark room, trying to get away from the pain. Five days ago the doc said he just had a scratched cornea after he was complaining that his eye hurt (said it felt like his contact was folded in half in his eye). Then the pain went into his head. A new doc two days later said he had an infection and that was causing extreme pain to the middle of his head. A doc today said he may have Shingles in his head. His eye is red and he says it feels like needles are poking his eye ball with extreme pain in his head and right behind the eye. He is crouched over from the pain in his head. He can see, but his eye is very teary and maybe even swollen. The doc gave him anit-inflamitory meds and meds to kill a virus. Nothing is helping. It has gotten prgressively worse and worse over the course of four days. He had a lot of stress in his life two weeks ago. Don't know what else to do. He cannot sleep and lies awake all night.

When I exercise i have sever leg cramps in my calf muscle as well as lower thighs. Any advice...

2007-08-02 10:07:56 · 7 answers · asked by Crystal T 1 in Pain & Pain Management

I'm not positive the tooth is infected.

My molar on the upper left(mine) in the far back has an aching pain that gets worse if i bite down on something and is cold/heat sensitive.
My upper and lower jaw/gums/teeth stared to hurt about the same time.
Now for the other stuff that started at the same time.
My inner ear hurts to the point I really want to pass out or just die. my neck is extreamly soar. And the muscle point where your neck and shoulder meet is in a large hard knot.

The doctor told me it was a muscle spasm and gave me muscle relaxors. They help with the knot but nothing else.

Could all this be connected, or am I just really unlucky?

Any possible theories would be great and soon please!

For a few years now, I have become an unsound sleeper. I've thought about going to a doctor, but for some reason can't bring myself to mention it when I go in for my physicals. Without OTC sleeping pills, I would be up all night--- if I'm lucky, I'd get 2-3 hours of sleep without and pills. Obviously, I know I need to speak to my doctor about this, but what tips do you have, especially those of you who might be/may have been in this situation before?
