so i've decided my butt discomfort is probably mild hemorrhoids. I'm 22 and female. I think this started after a dehydrated plane ride resulting in a rather laborious poop. after pooping my butt burns a little, and if i really push at it, it will bleed the tiniest tiniest bit (but not by just pooping). and for a couple hours after pooping my butt hurts especially if i walk, just feels better to sit, and not aggravate things. by the time i wake up its just about back to normal. Its rarely what i would call "painful" mostly just pretty itchy and annoying. If i have to walk a long way though sometimes it can get a little painful.

So... whats the best way to treat this at home, and what kind of a timeline am i looking at.

I was having sex with a girl and when I pulled my penis out, I notice some blood on the condom. When I took the condom off there was no blood on my penis. She told me that she was finsihing her period. Should I worry?

Five minutes or less.

I seem stuck at the 6-minute mark, and wish to lower that to at least under 5.

I've read up a bit on this inane topic (though surprisingly little information online -- what with all the other inane things on the Web); and learned about the cold shower, soaping the cloth first, taking a "Navy shower," and a few other interesting ideas.

Yours are welcome.

my boyfriend has only ejaculated about 6 times his entire life. he is 20. he only lasts about 1 minute, will he be able to last longer if he ejaculates more frequently? we haven't had sex yet, but just making out sets him off and it doesn't take a lot.

If you could only have one, what piece of equipment would you start out on. Are any of the items in any of the infomercials any good for a beginner. Price is a consideration, looking for good value.

I am 32 years old and have been having chest pains forever, atleast 9 months or longer but they seem to be getting worse and is accompanied by severe nausea, shortness of breath, pain on the left side, and around to the back. I have told my doc about this so many times and he just keeps telling me its anxiety but it is really starting, well has been, to scare me! Do you think this sounds like a heart attack? It's worse after I eat and I have noticed if I drink caffeine it makes it worse so that is cut out! Please let me know what you think. By the way I don't smoke or drink.

Is this grey spot the Astigmatism the docor is talking about or is it something else? I am going to call in the morning, but I would like to know if this is something to worry about & know what it possibly could be before I call or I won't be able to sleep tonight. It anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I think I sprained my neck muscles last night when I fainted and hit my head. The faint had to do with too powerful of meds the doc gave me for the flu. Tonight My neck muscles are very sore and it is hard to turn my head to the right or left. SHould I put a hot pack on my neck tonight when I go to bed or a cold pack? Heat feels good but so does the cold. Any suggestions?

Sometimes when I speak or have long conversations with someone. I tend to repeat my words. Is this normal? I do not stutter. I simply speak in sentences, then the word repeats without any sound coming out.
It's hard to explain. But it goes like this.
"where did you get that watermelon?"- then i would mouth the word watermelon.
I feel as if the words are coming out faster than my mouth can move. But at times I wouldn't even be excited, I would just be speaking.
Please help me find the name of this disorder if it exists and give me a link or a reference to look up myself.
thanks.

What are the causes of temperatures of 99 or 100. and nothing above that are not related to illness? I've been real tired and run down lately, working alot. I also take echinacea everyday (about 12 of them or more) and ive been taking that for about a month now, i also take vitamins and vitamin c seperately. Maybe i shouldn't be taking so much echinacea ? (or it shouldn't be taken on an everyday and weekly basis?) Right now it's late, i'm exhausted and the thermometer (oral mouth therm.) is reading 99.0. I'm so lost.

Thanks for the help.
