Health - 10 October 2007

I desperately need help.

For two months now there's been a growing hard lump about the size of a grape that's in a VERY STRANGE position to be either a hemorroid or vulvar cancer... It resides about an inch away from my anus, a half inch away from my pertonium, and another half inch away from the bottom of my vagina on the left side. For the last two months I've been treating it with hemorroid cream and it's fluxuated between getting better and worse for no explainable reason. Yet for the last two weeks or so I've been experienceing a growing discomfort with it, unyil finally last night when I went to the bathroom (to go #1) and wipe I discovered blood on the paper. To my horror, the bumps center is gone (the size of the tip of my pinky finger) and tissue, bleeding tissue is protruding out through it a short ways. WHY is there tissue coming out of it???? And what is it!?!?

Help :(

OK heres my situation, I have been patient but now I am at my wits end and want to know if he will ever change...
I have been with a guy for 2 years, we've been living together(with my parents) for a year.
He drinks too much and smokes. I hate him smoking... We broke up for a few months in the first year and he quit smoking then, we got back together and he started again.
I wanna buy a house soon but I'm dont wanna be with him if he's smoking, he says he's trying, most of the time he will only smoke when he drinks but thats not good enough for me.
WHat can I do to make him quit or is it not possible... Thanks for your help

I know this is a very personal question, but the reason I ask is because I take pain pills. I have severe scoliosis, my spine is shaped like an "S" and my curves, last time I checked, were measuring 53 and 55 degrees. I have never had surgery, and don't intend to. I have had this since I was 12, and I am 26 now. As I got older the pain got worse, and finally in 2005, I started taking pain pills. I was ashamed at first to resort to taking pain pills, as there is a stigma that goes with them. But in order to be a productive mother/wife/person, I need pain management. I take Lortab, the 10's...I only take 2 at night, and I suffer during the day because I am afraid of becoming a "junkie". I also take a muscle relaxer at bedtime. This only reduces the pain, as it never goes away entirely. I would just like to hear other peoples stories who have chronic pain that is a common part of their everyday life. Sorry so long.

At 13 yrs old, these problems are probably nothing compared to what's out in the "real world", but the stress and pain keep piling up and I don't think I can handle this much longer. My parents are rarely home anymore, and being self-employees, often work well past midnight. I'm losing my friends year after year, and it seems like I'm always the one that doesn't fit in. I make tons of mistakes like normal people would, but they constantly get shoved in my face. The suicidal thoughts keep coming back no matter how hard I try to get my life back the way it was. My problem probably isn't big enough for other people to want to kill themselves over, but I'm not that strong, and I just want to give up and for it to end. I've been trying to take it a day at a time, pushing myself to make it through one more week, one more month, but after two years of this, it doesnt seem like there's much hope anymore.

Well, under my right eye is puffy. Whenever I tap under it, it feels like liquid trapped beneath but it doesn't go away -- [it's been like this for quite some time now]. My other eye is fine it's just the right. It looks really swollen too. I do rub that eye a lot though..but I'm trying to stop because I don't want it to get worst.

I do have allergies and I haven't been to the doctor for a long time now. I don't take medication...but I'm going to buy some soon.

-I'm in my teens

Last week, I was feeling very suicidal because I had no hope in my life. I am 34. I have never had a gf. I am still a virgin. I have a big nose, a skinny face, a long neck and balding. But I am balding very fast, which makes me even more ugly. So once I lose my hair, no girl will ever, ever like me. My mother does not want me to shave my head, so I won't shave my head. I will be bald but will have hair on the sides. So do I just give up on ever finding a gf and getting married and have kids and have a family. In other words, will I be alone for the rest of my life?

I get minor ear infectons pretty often due to an old injury to my ear drum. I was wondering if anyone can suggest any natural remedies for the pain. I know there's no miracle cure, but I sure am getting sick of taking tylenol.

I constantly feel the need to have my actions approved by other people. even if i've never met them i feel like i need to explain myself. I'm constantly thinking that i sound stupid when i talk and no matter how i try to fix it i just seem to make it worse. how can i stop looking for approval from others? please help if you can.

part of me wants help, the other part doesnt want to at all and knows that if i do go to rehab or anything i would relapse again anyways.

I would go to rehab to at least try, but i'm fifteen, and my parents have no idea about it. If i told them it would ruin my life. They would hate me.

I want help, but i don't want my parents knowing.

My drug use started freshman year drinking, then i started smoking weed ocationally. My weed smoking increased to multiple times a day, then i started getting into other **** too.
To list some, ive done/still do extacy vicodin xanax, acid, ritalin, lsd, shrooms, coke, pcp, etc.
(never done crack or heroin, thank god)

I love doing them. My friends and i have a great time together. I love it. But since i am only a sophmore, i worry that later this year and next year, i might just keep getting worse.

I also feel like ive ****** up my life already, and stopping now wont change anything.
Ive lost everything that was once important to me.
