I have dry socket :(
The actual problem is due to having both bottom wisdom teeth surgically extracted 8 days ago. My dry socket is in the bottom right. My referred pain is in my left bottom back molar.

I am on Percocet 5/325 every 4 hours and they are NOOO help at all.

I know the answer is probably going to be that nothing is going to help until the dry socket heals. But please humor me and give me any advice you possibly can.

THIS SUCKS!

I feel like my friend is ignoring me.
I have this friend, she is a senior, and we have known each other since I was 3(she was 5). She has been great at helping me get throught last year(see other posts) and I need her to be there for me again this year. I have no clases or lunch with her. I have emailed her about 20 times and she has not once emailed back. I see her in the halls about everyday and she used to say hi but she did not today or at all last week. I have also tried to im when i thought she might be on, but after i did that, i went back on the computer and saw that she deleted herself from my messenger.I have no idea what i did.I mean i did not even see her that much over the summer to do anything wrong.Why is she doing this?This is not at all like her. I don't know what to do. Am I just overreacting?I am going to try to talk to her when we come back to school on Monday, but I don't know what to saw, I don't even know if I will have the guts to talk to her. What should I do?

three days ago I started to get the exact same symptoms of a urinary tract infection. it was real bad then went away. the next day it came back and hasn't gotten any better or any worse. after urinating this huge pain hits you in the lower bladder area. thats the only symptom and then it dissapears. I'v had UTI's before but not like this. this is just different. could it be a UTI if its not getting any better or worse.

i need help with something. i'm 14, i have had my period already (i've only had it a few times, maybe 3-4 times already?) and i have breasts, but they're a bit too small for an a cup, but too big for a aa cup. i'm very petite, i'm 84 pounds, and i'm 4' 10" and i still wear 10-12 kid's size clothing.i was wondering if my breasts will ever get bigger, and if so, about how big? my mom has about b-ish cups, so idk how i'll turn out. i've heard of flat chested girls getting their periods, and then getting HUGE breasts soon after that. also, where can i get inexpensive bras that will fit and be comfortable? i hate underwire, and i dont mind light padding. NO victoria's secret please. i cant affod to pay 50 bucks for a bra. thanks for your help!

I am a 42 year old mom, wife, and teacher. Everyday when I get home I want to take a nap. I get really sleepy around 5:00 and the couch just calls my name. I know I could be getting lots of stuff done during that time. I usually sleep for at least 1 hr. Then, I stay up until about midnight. Do you do this? I don't do it every day, but about 4 out of 7 days. I don't want to go to bed every night at 9:00.

It's toward the bottom close to where my eye lashes start. It hurts sometimes and sometimes I can feel it's there. Does anyone have an idea of what it could be?

(Read my previous question for more deets) I get a bit shaky and nervous before all doctor appointments, so knowing what is going to happen really helps 2 calm my nerves. Does anyone know what things they would do to me? Thank you guys a lot, I really appreciate all of your answers :)

As a child, I grew up in poverty. But I lived in a small town where I'd say about 99% of families were indulging in extreme wealth. I was often socially ostracized, frowned upon, and made fun of in school because my clothes were visibly second-handed and pretty much worn-out. I am now an adult, and I am terrified to speak to people that appear to be in higher physical financial, physical, or social standards than me. When I talk to them or ask them a question, I can't look them in the eye, and I'm terrified that they are going to take one look at me at first sight, and flee in disgust. I've yet to test that possibility because I am terrified to even look at people that I've described. If anyone has a clue what to label this type of phobia, or mental disorder as it may be called, please go ahead and post a reply. Thank you.

I drink sufficient water, but still lips are always dry. What to do? Chapsticks are making it worse.
