I am always getting up to go to the toilet in the night. Sometimes about 3 times. I never sleep all the way through. I try not to drink alot at night. Even if the last drink I had was at 6pm I still get up! I have been tested for diabetes so its not that. Is there any other suggestion?

i'm really worried, l'm only 17 and l'm not having sex but l'm experiencing a lot of vaginal discomfort and it's uncomfortable to walk/sit sometimes. the itching sensation began yesterday, but i didn't really think too much of it, and today was very uncomfortable all day so i got home and well, checked it out, and it's really red and swollen and l was really shocked and it stings a bit to uriniate.

this is really concerning and i dont know why this is happening, it's pretty unpleasant. i've never experienced this before and i went online to look it up and a whole bunch of websites are telling me to put yoghart or diluted vinegar on a tampon and insert it overnight.

will it go away naturally, is there anything i can do or do i really have to go and see a doctor?

thanks!

My god son has type1 diabetes. He is eleven and has three injections a day plus a Lantis at night. My friend weighs all the food and how much carbohydrate is in the food depends on how many units of Insulin she gives him. This is a new regime and she is absolutely convinced that he is allowed as much sugar as he likes as long as he takes a higher dosage of insulin to compensate. His blood sugar levels are regularly in the twenties and I am worried that she is doing him long term damage. I am positive that diabetics are only allowed sugar as a special treat or when they are hypo. Please can someone who knows answer this question. The hospital are considering pump therapy because they cannot work out the problem. I think its the sugar please help!!!!

All of a sudden my gums swelled up a few days ago for no reason. I just went to the dentist today but they were not sure what was wrong even after x-rays and they just gave me antibiotics. The thing is that the swelling is getting worse and spreading and my under chin hurts really bad.

Has this ever happened to anyone? Could this have to do with my braces? (I've had them for 1.5 years and haven't been to the ortho for 3 weeks)

Also, I think I might have overheard the dentist say something about bone loss but they didn't really say anything to me.

HELP!!

She said that, for example, if you are working on a computer, it will omit UV rays and SPF cream will protect you from it..I thought only the sun could give off UV rays that damage the skin..!??

Is it too much to ask for them to only air on women's channels (Lifetime, Oxygen, etc.) so that we men don't have to see that garbage?

The STD that causes genital warts and possibly cancer (depending on the strain)?
How long ago, and do you know if it's gone?
They say it never goes away, but who knows for sure?
