My son was jumping on his bed and fell. He cryed that his foot was hurting, was limping, and his foot was getting a little puffy. I brought him to the emergency room. The doctor had an x-ray done, which showed no breakage. I was told to treat it like a contusion, but to keep an eye on it, and my son's behavior. A week later my son was visibly limping, there was bruising, and his foot was still a little puffy in the the bruised area. I brought him to the pediatrician. The Doctor told me that he suspects that even though it didn't show up on the original X-ray, my son has a hairline fracture. He then told me that I need to keep my son off of his feet for another 4-5 weeks. Then, he proceeded to wrap my son in an Ace bandage, stating that hopefully this woud encourage him to stay off of it. I asked the doctor if it should be casted, or atleast splinted, and he said he felt it not necessary. Shouldn't
a hairline fracture be splinted, at least?

I found a website that has a detox/cleanse recipe called "The Master Cleanse". I am interested in doing this because I would like to change my lifestyle, including but not limited to, stopping smoking, eating better, and overall feeling better. I would like to know if anyone has done this, and if I should do it for the recommended 10 days or start with 5. A friend of mine has pledged to do it with me, but I am curious to see how if makes you feel afterward. In other words, is it really life-changing??

People Suck! Ecspcially my EX Boyfriend. Help?
Okay... well I ran out of Midol and I was pretty bitchy. I had a headache and my ex boyfriend who is crazy and obsessive and I hate decided it would be fun to throuw my water bottle around and screw with my stuff. I asked him nicely to give it back then he refused snottily, so I tried to kick him in the nuts, but he blocked it. So I just sat down and called him a gaywad. I know... so juvenile, but how do I get people to stop sucking so much? And me ex bff, who totally betrayed me sat by me in computer and tried to be all buddy buddy, and I wanted to say s0o bad "Crawling back to me, huh? b/c Kate (this weird loud girl) cant quite measure up can she? well guess what ***** off!" but im nice and i would never say somthing like that to sombody.

I have felt sick for almost a week now. It feels like I have an ongoing case of indigestion with nausea, but I have tried every antacid, anti nausea pill, liquid, nothing works.

I dont have insurance anymore so it would have to be a real emergency for me to see a doctor. It feels like if I could just get the acid out of my stomach, I would feel better. What can I do other than jam my finger down my throat?

I have got a fibre-glass spectacles, and I accidently got a ball pen mark over it (a small one, but bothersome nevertheless). It didn't go away when i washed it with copious amounts of water and soap. Can you please tell me some effective home remedy??

OK, In the grand scheme of things, this is not a major problem, but my "mouse finger" is starting to pop and hurt after even a few hours of computer work. I am a freelance health writer and actually do work on my computer besides contribute to Y/A...LOL. Has anyone encountered this problem, and how are you dealing with it? Any ergonomic changes you have found that help ease the symptoms. We never learned about "mouse arthritis" in nurses' training.

Im 13, and i havnt started my periods yet, wich is fine, because my sister didnt start until she was older. The thing that is worrying me though is that recently i have been getting dark brown discharge. I am not 'active' and im too embarrassed to talk to my mum dad or a doctor about it. the discharge has a reddish liquid around it that seems thinner, and i found blood when i was wiping myself the other day. i dont think i have started my periods because i have had no symptoms (apart from being very emotionally sensitive) and because of my sisters late start. it doesnt look like blood either. i am really worried about this and it has happened before about a month ago but it went away. Please help =S =S =S

I have 2 degenerated discs in my neck causing chronic pain. I am 28 years old. I have been to multiple doctors and neurosurgeons. My doctor says the 2 bad discs need removed and that 2 new ones need fused in. Sounds pretty scary. He says ther is a 65% chance it will make me feel better. Has anyone had this done or know anything about it? Please tell me about you or a friends experience. Thanks!
