Health - 11 September 2007

More specifically, my daughter is approaching pre-teen age and has had some complaints "down there". The way she explains it, I think she may have a mild yeast infection. I am just wondering, should I take her to her pediatrician (who is male), should I just keep her using an over-the-counter external cream, or should I take her to see a GYN ( of course I would find a female one for her)

I really need a product that works because I have tried an endless amount of products and they just don't seem to have any effect on my skin

I have ups and downs with my exercise. I can find a lot of motivation in it for about 1 -2 months. However I start getting bored and I slow down and eventually stop, just to realize that I want to start again. Is there any way to keep a steady work out schedule instead of having these off/on cycles? and is this even a healthy life style, putting your body through weight loss and then periods of no exercise at all and weight gain?

This may be the wrong board to post this but I wanted to target men for answers.
Please offer your true feelings on women and boob jobs. Do you love women for we are or do you all prefer Pamela Anderson?
Personally, I am small breasted and would love bigger boobs because I have a lack of selfconfidence but I don't want anything in my body I'm afraid of. I don't feel they are safe for breastfeeding or if I may be in a car accident or if my body just rejects them all together.

How do you guys really feel about a woman's breast size?

I have the most horrible pain in my hands today and for the last couple of days. It has been rainy here. It started with my left pointer finger nuckle, very stiff, then all the fingers. Now my right hand is so painful I can barely type, cannot make a fist and it's a horrible pain to pick up my three month old and carry him. My right wrist appears slightly swollen but not red. Should I use a heating pad? Ice pack? I don't want to make it worse. I tried 800mg Ibuprophen and Darvocet, made me sick to my stomach but no pain relief.

Did you know walking alone is not good enough? You'll have a stronger heart with sprints included too - but you can only do these if you are healthy.

My mum has had cancer in the past and would like to get a full body PET scan for peace of mind but has been refused one when requested via a doctor because she is not high risk! She is willing to pay all costs, so I would appreciate your advice. Thanks.

well you always hear about people "cutting" themselves and "emo" kids and i didn't want to, i always thought it was silly... but just went through i don't know what, and usually when i'm down i binge, or well there was a phase with alcohol, but i was in the shower, and i just felt so hopeless and i was shaving and i don't know why, but i cut myself. on purpose, and i saw the blood coming out, and it i don't know, i did it again because it was interesting, and i don't know what came over me... anyways i'm sorry this is really stupid. i used a razor that had been sitting outside. and well now the cuts are stinging and they're a bit swollen. i don't want it to get infected... what do i do? please don't judge i have no idea why this happened... and any suggestion on how to cover this up for school? i really don't want anybody to worry...
