When i was younger i used to NEVER brush my teeth and i was a fool. now im old i have wobbly teeth and i just wish i had brushed em when i was younger. if i brush my teeths regularly now and my gums become healthy will they heal up and stiffen? or will they stay wobbly and end up falling out. (Note my older brother just had all his top teeth taken out and i dont want to end up like him---- hes 37 im 19)

My son's ortho won't put braces on him because he doesn't brush well enough. He's a junior in HS and making no effort to better brush, except for his girlfriend, who thinks he doesn't need braces.

How do I convince him to get the braces pronto so they'll be off before his senior pictures?

Or, should I wait and let him wear braces in college?

Hernani Fermin, 35 yr old married father, was diagnosed HIV positive. he left his job as a sales representative. His doctor suggested he rethink his carrer goals.

He sent out resumes . Finally one was well received by South Hills Middle school. They had a opening in their math department, plus a need for someone to coach after-school athletics, and they wanted to meet with him. He hadn't interviewed since the twins were born seven years ago. He thought about the question normally asked--would there be some question about his health ? Being HIV positive shouldn't have any bearing on his ability to teach, but parents might be concerned. And it might be disqualify him for the school's health insurance policy. Hernani believed in honesty, but what would happen to his family revealed his HIV status?

I wanted to know what causes that.
Does it have to do with stress?
More Information would be great.

to feel a little funny. I hate half a bowl of chicken and rice around 6 pm and then had a oreo shake at about 1030 pm. My husband had a shake as well and isn't feeling sick. All thru the night, my stomach was uncomfortable and hurt. It wasnt the gassy kind of feeling tho. My stomach has been moving...I know weird. And, this morning, my stomach was still hurting and I was a little nauseaus. Now, almost 24 hrs later, my joints and body are achy and I am EXTREMELY fatigued. Have not thrown up yet or had diarrhea, but any thought of eating makes me gag. I have a family dinner to go to in 4 hrs and was wondering if it is food poisoning or stomach flu. If it is the first, I want to try and go to the dinner.....but if i am contagious, I shouldn't go. Any help would be great!!!! Thanks!

I was just sitting, and suddenly I farted. But it felt like it was abit wet, so I checked with my hand. It didn't really seem like diarhea, and was transparent, so I smelled it. It felt and smelled like oil, and when i wiped some on a tissue, it was yellow.

27 yo f. 105 lbs 5'4" I've had a sonogram and docs found nothing. One doc thinks it might be a pushed out muscle, she thinks physical therapy can help push it back in.It looks like an oversized love handle and still growing. It doesn't hurt when I push on it or when when I walk. It's a very slight pain, that comes and goes every hour or so. I don't feel it in my spine, just deep in my left side and nothing I do makes it hurt worse. Should docs look for anything else. One doc told me that it's just fat! Fat doesn't freaking hurt and I'm skinnier than most of hollywood! Could it be cysts?

Do you think that people who do the brainwashing use subliminal messages so the other people aren't aware of what's being done to them?

Okay, I'm going to list my symptoms and I would love to hear some guesses on what it could be. I am making a doctors appointment tomorrow, but the suspense is killing me.
1. Tired all the time
2. Missed period (normal for me, but not this long. It's been almost four months since my last one.)
3. Pains in the pubic bone area.
4. Pains in my stomach like a rubber band pulling feeling.
5. Gained an inch in my stomach even with diet and exercise
6. Headache
7. Sick to my stomach, but haven't thrown up.
8. My dog won't leave me alone. He follows me everywhere and has decided to ignore the rest of the family.
9. Sore breasts and something crusty around the nipples.

Okay, I know the obvious thing is going to be pregnancy, but I was wondering if there was anything else that could have those symptoms. My husband had a vasectomy 7 years ago and the odds are pretty unlikely I could be pregnant. Granted there is a small chance, but not much. Oh, I'm 29 if that matters.

I got my cartilidge pierced in spring. It hurt for a while then stopped. In august it was hurting again and was on and off until finally I saw some crust around it and it was pussing. It was either clear or yellow I can't remember. Then my mom told me to take it out. There was some scar tissue there is big and round like my diamond that was in it earlier. It wasn't hurting after that for two days but not it is very unbearable. Is this the piercing just healing or something else? If so/or not what can I do other than go get it checked out by a doctor?

I am going camping, and I have to be on a bus with a tour group for about 4 hours. After we get off the bus, we wil be doing rigourous camping things like pitching tents and taking hikes right away. Should I take dramamine before the 4 hour bus ride, or will it make me too sleepy to do anything when I get to the camp? Im confused. And, no, I dont have enough time to get the non-drowsy stuff at a pharmacy, too busy.

Many sports injuries are minor, such as sprains. But doctors say they are seeing an increase in overuse injuries,stress fractures, tendanitis, bursitis and chronic pain syndromes.
But im looking at the positive side of students playing sports like the fact that they are more fit in High School and as they get older they are less likely to become obese, which is the number one problem in the U.S.
But what how else do you think High School sports can be rewarding besides keeping students fit ?
