I have a "bump" on the upper outer side of one of my testis and I don't know if it is cancer or not. I looked it up on the internet and it said that if you have a bump occuring in that area then it is just the epidymis or something like that. What do you think it is? Please I need serious answers I am really scared about this. Thanks and God Bless.

On August 18th I was getting into the drivers side backseat of an SUV and the person driving the car didn't know I wasn't fully in the car yet and started driving and drove over my foot but my ankle twisted and the tire twisted it into a very odd angle. I went to an urgent care the next morning and told them what happened and they refused to x-ray it because they said I would need more than an x-ray so I went to the E.R. and all they ended up doing was x-raying it and saying it was sprained but a workout trainer I know said that you can tear tendons when something like that happens and my foot and ankle still hurt when I move them in different positions and angles. Does anyone know anything I can do BESIDES going BACK to the hospital?

So, I've been taking ritalin since I was 7 [I'm now 18.] and Well, I started drinking coffee last year, but I noticed that everytime I drank coffee I felt really sick. I'm sitting in my dorm room now- and I just realized that I might get sick from coffee because I generally take Ritalin before I drink coffee out of habit. Are there any bad side effects to taking Ritalin and drinking coffee?

I don't know what to do? I also broke my wrist and arm, in 4 places, they used 5 screws 2 pins and a plate. the doctors are giving me 2 five mg oxycodone every 6 hours, it doesn't do much for the pain. any sugestions? They shoot horses, I'm thinking about it. I have never hurt so much.

yesterday i was walking in a store and then got a stabbing pain in my upper arm and then it started itching and burning and still does. i went to the after hours clinic and paid $80 damn dollars cause my insurance didnt cover it since it wasnt my doctor but my dr was closed well they said it was an insect bite and treat it as spider bite. My grandma thought it was a wasp or bee sting. Well they gave me a steriod shot and said the swelling should go down and it'd stop burning and itching and hasn't it's been almost 4 hours and to me it looks like it spreading but i cant do anything. Does anyone know what would do this to someone? shouldn't it stop burning after the shot like she said? even though she gave me a shot and pills to fill i have to get tomorrow if it spreads and still hurts should i call my doctor even though she treated it? i put ice pack and a damp rag on it and anti itch cream but it burns n still itches. its hard to sleep iono what to do.

I've been taking Claritin during the day and it works great; however, tonight I've been sneezing my head off and blowing my nose like crazy. I, too, can only occassionally breathe out of one nostril. What's a GOOD cold medicene that doesn't wipe you out? It has to be non-drowsy as I have a toddler to look after. Or...I can take something to knock me out at night, but not Nyquil or Benadryl as those knock me into next week!

I wake up several times every night with muscle cramps in my lower legs and feet. I've tried the over the counter stuff and it doesn't help. Most of these have a generic form of Benadryl in them that keeps me up. Any suggestions? I'm becoming desperate.

Breast Reduction??!?
I'm 19 years old & have a large chest 34/36 D/DD... I'm tall (5'8) & weigh around 145 pounds. I'm athletic and it interfers with my running. They also make me appear larger. Shirts never fit & i always get boob comments. I want them to be smaller and perkier... I'd love to go down to a small to mid C cup. nothing drastic.

I'm afraid my parents aren't going to be supportive. How can get them to take this seriously? Their first concern is going to be money & they will pass me off as superficial. I have tufts insurance if that helps. What kind of coverage can I expect? How much would i have to remove to be covered?

I'll give you all the complete story so bear with me here. I found a lump in my left breast years ago (atleast 5 or more) & had it examined by my family doctor at the time. She said it was a cyst & just to monitor it to make sure it didn't grow. It never did get larger, actually, I think it may have gotten smaller. Anyways, after I stopped breast feeding my son (over a year & a half ago) I noticed I was still getting some milky white & sometimes clear discharge from that breast...even now. A few months ago I started getting some pain in the area in my breast. Not really bad but more uncomfortable & it goes away. I went to my new doctor (I wasn't happy with my old one's diagnosis) & I ended up getting a mammogram & a breast ultrasound. They called me back for a second mammogram because they said there were some calcifications on the pictures but they were pretty sure they were from the deoderant I was wearing. Today, I got the results & it is a solid mass, not fluid filled and

I got bitten by a mosquito yesterday on my forearm and about 30 minutes after it happened, I noticed it had swollen up to about 2/3's the size of my forearm. It was also turning kind of purple. When I woke up this morning the size had decreased, and it was normal colored, but it started itching and it was hot to touch. Throughout the day it swelled up again, and it is back to covering about 2/3's of my forearm again. Does anyone know what is going on? Should I be worried?
I read somewhere that after people get bitten by mosquitoes a lot they can become immune, but they can also start getting allergic reactions, and I have gotten quite a few mosquito bites lately so I think that might be it. So does anyone know if that could be the case?

She cheated on her b/f of 9 years, 4 TIMES, with the same person. She got pregnant while cheating and got an abortion. 9 year b/f forgave her over and over.

She is mentally gone for some reason OTHER than 9 year b/f. The person she cheat on him with is a drunk with so many DUI's, on parole for 5 years, no driver's licence, is abusive, chronic gambling/loser, controlling, FAT and GREASY, not to mention BUTT uglier than a dog's **** with crusty green diahhrea for a complexion.

Why would she give up a college educated, GENUINELY great down to earth MAN who was a Marine for a sub-human loser?

This former Marine is my friend. All he ever did was love, honor and cherish her. Please shed some light on this. Thank you.
