I fell when I was in some woods. A few minutes later my arm started burning, but not itching. And there were four little bumps. What is it?

It's white, hard and a little smaller than pea size. It's been there for months & I don't know what to do with it?

I ask because my 4 yr old daughter had 2 pinkish bumps above her lip & over time she picked them off & they never came back. Then several months later she got one on her upper arm. (about where you would get a shot) Is this normal or something to worry about?

I am scared about having to have my legs open, I have never had to undress at the doctors before.

Does it hurt when then push the speculum into you?

How do you get into the stirrups, will the nurse put me in them?

What happens if you start to take the pill before you get your period? Example,,, first time going on the pill, and you are suppost to wait to start taking the pill untill you get your period and you take your first pill on sunday.... so what if you dont get your period yet and you take the pill before hand.???

So basically this guy that eats lunch near me was talking about why he prefered larger girls over skinnier ones. One of the points he argued was that skinny girls have loose vaginas while heavy girls have nice tight vaginas.
lol
Well ive never heard of that before and Im pretty thin and I don't think mine is "loose". But has any one else heard this? Is it true? For people that have seen more than one vagina, was the thicker girl tighter?
I know this is a weird question but im curious.

OK, I have been with my partner for almost 5 years and sex has always been a bit funny, e.g. 3 weeks with nothing and then 3 days none stop and then back to nothing. Now though, the last time was 27 May and I'm starting to crack up. I have mentioned it to him but he just says that I nag about it all the time and then it dosn't exactly put him in the mood!! He is 19 years older than me and just says that his "bits" don't work. Having said that, when he can be bothered, everything works perfectly. Has anyone any ideas what I should do to get things moving again?? I'm too young to be a born again virgin and this is cracking me up.

I just started the pill orthocyclen and wanted to ask about breakthrough bleeding.?
It is my first pack and I am only starting it to delay my period. I have an anniversary with my husband and do not want to be on the rag. We have very limited time together because of his work. He has had a vasectomy, so its not for birth control. I only want to avoid my period from October 6th -11th.
My intent was to start this pack and skip the placebos , going straight into the next pack. (thus skipping a period). I started the pack on Sun Sept 9th. The problem is I am having bad breakthrough bleeding everyday(nearly as bad as a regular period) I take it the same time every day and dont miss. When I used to take this pill regularly , I didnt do this, even on the 1st pack.
I am wondering, should i keep taking it and hope I dont have my period or the bleeding just stops.
Or , since its getting so close to the placebos, should I stop taking them a few days early early, inducing my period early?

Hi, I'm on b.c, a generic of othro-tri cyclen(also had the depo-shot 4 months ago, then put on the pill 3 months ago, was on depo and pill, for a month), I haven't missed a pill, and I'm pretty sure I'm not pregnan, however,I'm married and have had unprotected sex but its been 2 weeks and no symptoms or anything. However, I am on my white pills for 3 days(now), and still haven't started, I just started 2 jobs in the past three days waitress and another as a cashier, have had a sinus infection last monday and had 2 antibiotic shots accordingly, what are the chances my period is delayed because of stress and medicine? (I've never had it miss before). Thanks!

I am 14 years old and healthy. A few hours ago, I got up from watching TV for about an hour. When I did, I took a deep breath and I felt a very sharp cramp-like pain under my right rib cage. I haven't done anything strenuous recently so I don't think that it could be that. But, I have just begun gym class after a "lazy summer". Could that be whats causing it? I'm really nervous. I have a "fear" of the doctor, really, I do. Please help!!!

When I had my first daughter; a few weeks after delivery i developed this unbearable pain under my chest surrounding my back . I couldn't explain it all I knew is this pain felt like i was having a heart attack until i vomited whatever i ate. I did some research online and googled my symptoms and that first thing that popped up was "Gastrointestinal disease." Now I have described it to my midwife and my physician before i was pregnant and she said it could very well be indigestion or acid reflux. Well that pain couldn't be that unbearable...could it? It comes every now and then and at this moment i am 7 months pregnant and i am afraid it may cause problems with the baby or possibly premature birth....Has anyone ever experienced this? I do have a prenatal appointment tomorrow for my glucose test and i can ask again but this question is keeping me awake because i can never seem to get a direct answer. I want to know if anyone else has ever had this? And what it might be?

I have a friend who is bulimic and she just can't seem to stop. I started researching it a lot to try and find out all the negatives of it so I could tell her. But when I said that it really doesn't do anything for but possibly make you gain weight, she ignored me.
What happens to your foods once you eat them and throw them up? Do all the fats and bad stuff already get absorbed in your body once you swallow it? Does anyone know the process? For example, ice cream.

I don't beleive hoe silly some people are,they go to school for years and beleive they become inteligent they call themselves educated,but it does not take any education to understand that if god put it there there is a reason and if you decide he did't know what he was doing there will be a price to pay,any man that does not like hair on a women pubs has something serious wrong with him in my opinion maybe he should even question his manhood.
