Health - 16 October 2007

i try every product, but i just dont know what to do. I take a shower, use the product. Then hoping to get some results, which makes me feel even worse. What i have is dry scalp, which creates dandruff. It just leaves my skin really flaky and all over the place, its just quite emberrasing. if anyone out there can help me, would really appreciate it!!!

If you don't know what that means it means he pulls out before ejaculation. We have been using this and no other form of birth control for over a year now, and so far so good. But I read that this is an unreliable method of birth control because it takes an extraordinary amount of self control on the part of the man. My husband doesn't have a problem with the self control, he just thinks about the possibility of having a baby and it scares the bejesus out of him. So anyway, my question is, has anyone gotten pregnant when you do this as birth control? I don't want to have to remember to take a pill every day and I'm not going to make my husband wear a condom. If this has worked for us so far, how come they say it's unreliable?

Im such a klutz! I fell in a pothole in a parking lot and I have no insurance. I realize the hospital will treat me reguardless, but I dont want a $1000 bill for a sprain or a strain of my ankle. It is very, VERY swollen on the outside, around the little knobby bone that sticks out, and is brusing quite badly. My toes are a little tingly and have been going slightly numb for the last 24 hours (this happened very late Saturday night). Im just wondering if anyone knows the physcial feelings that are different between a sprain, a strain and a fracture? I dont think its broken because, even though its very painful, i've been walking on it since it happened. Help, please!!

I only wash my hair with shampoo when I shower. I don't think theres a point in the span of the 18 years of my life that I wash my body with soap on a normal basis. I probably wash my body with soap on rare occasion when I have dirt or ink stains on it. I shower once daily. I've always thought it was normal to not wash your body with soap, but only your hair. But ever since I came to college, I see a lot of people with body soap, a scrubber, and hair shampoo in the dorm hall. I don't smell bad or anything. I'm just wondering if I should start using body soap.

I don't want to know about side effects or about how "The Pill" works.
What I really want is a comparison of the two.

When compared to other legal drugs i think that cannabis is harmless.

Smoking tobacco. This can cause cancer and is highly addicitve, but yet is 100% legal to over 18's in England.

Smoking Cannabis can also cause health problems, such as cancer, but isnt highly addcitive, in fact your body doesnt begin to rely on it at all, except from mentally, but if you get into a habit of anything then your body will struggle to anything differently.

Alcohol. I know that when i walk around the streets of swindon and look around i can see countless drunk people causing trouble, detroying property and fighting and they are all drunk. How many stoners do you know that do this BECAUSE of cannabis. i dont know one, and i know many.

Im nearly 18, in full time education, with 100% attendance and am doing very well, i have been bought up around cannabis and have smoked it everyday for over a year. Im a normal person and hate being called a druggy.

what do you think?

My husband was perfectly fine one minute and the next minute the side of his face, from the front of his ear to the bottom of his jaw swelled up like a balloon. Here's a little background...

He's not been to a dentist in 6 years. He has a loose lower front tooth for quite a while (same side as the swelling). Swelling appeared out of the blue and subsides with ice and IP Profine in 2-3 hours. Swelling re-ocurrs rapidly only while eating.

He finally saw a dentist yesterday, but she found no Periadontal disease. She cleaned and then bonded the loose tooth. No swelling occurred during this session.

As soon as we returned home and he started eating...boom it started again. I'm heading back to the dentist for some antibiotics as I fear he has an infection somewhere and it's dangerous to let an infection go untreated as I know it can spread to the brain.

But any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks

I heard there was a shampoo that gives your hair the I haven't washed it for a few days look. Does anyone know the name of this and where I can purchase it? I have straight hair and it would help put some texture in it without adding gel or wax or lotion products.

I am nearsighted (20/700 or so). My parents both have poor eyesight, but I managed to surpass them a few years ago. Most of my short, two decade life has been spent around books or computers.

1- Would a lifestyle change be able to improve my vision? For example, if I decrease my close work? Is the damage done?

2- I've noticed an increase in 'floaters'. Usually, I can ignore them but the amount in my eyes right now is... irritating. Is there any way to reduce these? I've been in a chronically stressful situation for the last six weeks, so I wonder if its correlated.

3- Recently, my eyes have began to twitch. I had a bout of these spasms a few years ago, centered on the upper part of my left eye. Now, they occur in the lower parts of both eyes. What are they and how can I make them go away?

4- "They" say that severe nearsightedness increases your chance of retinal detachments. How severe do they mean?

Thanks
