Sometimes I wake up feeling my tummy will explode. I noticed this happens if i sleep on something even if it's the bed cover or my own clothes. I am not pregnant and very slim. It feels as if my tummy is full of air trapped but doesn't feel like i have gas. The feeling only goes away after I move for a while, it hurts a lot when I breathe. Any explanation and/or solution for this???

Received a cortisone shot today on my right knee for a torn ligament 3 months ago. Knee was alot better with physical therapy last appt with dr today. Stated a cortisone shot will releive the rest of the swelling in my knee and gave me the shot. Knee feels like when I first hurt it, but worse. Can't stand, walk, straighten or bend right leg. I am icing it. Is this pain normal? How long does this last?

Whenever I have midterms, finals, or papers due, I get really stressed out, stay up all night, and end up eating a lot! How can I stop eating and snacking when I get stressed out? Don't tell me to reduce my stress level because I can't exactly go up to a professor and say "hey guess what, i'm trying to lose weight and writing this paper stresses me out, so i'm not going to do it!" and it's not reasonable to expect me not to procrastinate, either. Please help! I am 5"7.5 and I used to weigh less, but after three years in college I am packing on the pounds (and I do exercise, regularly btw. I just eat too much!)

I'm 17 years old, and female. I have a swollen lymph node in my armpit (this might be from shaving) which previously had shrunk to a very small size, but has swelled up again. I also have mild back and rib pain. Earlier today I've had dull aching pain in my chest, and mild sharp pains on the sides of my chest/breasts (also a little underneath breasts). It seems that heat helps such as warming up my muscles, dressing warmly etc.. I've done a self breast check, and they seem okay. AT the moment they are slightly sensitive to the touch, but very mild. I also still feel a little achy, but compared to how I felt earlier I feel pretty good. I also keep thinking that the upper part of my sternum is more prominent or boney feeling than usual, like the cardilage is inflamed or swollen. I don't know what to make of it. Muscle strain? Costochondritis? I might end up going to the doctor anyway if my lymph node doesn't go away and if I do, I'll certainly ask, but until then, any ideas?

For strength training, which is better?
-Doing early sets with a heavier weight and then doing the final sets with a lower weight as you tire.
-Starting with a lower weight and then adding weight for subsequent sets.
-Using the same weight for all sets.

What about if you want to condition the muscles for endurance as well as strength?

Just for kicks i have been weighing myself just before and just after my workouts. I have noticed that i have typically lost about 1 lb after every workout. I.e. if X is before workout and Y is after workout X - Y = 1 lb.
I drink about two to three cups of water (300 Ml) during the workout to compensate for all the sweating.
What does this mean? Is there any correlation to the amount of calories i am burning?
I am not worried and i am showing steady weightloss and i know i will gain back the 1 lb loss after eating something, but just wanted to know relevance.

What was your experience like? Do you think it's a good birth control method? I just had a baby and am breastfeeding. I don't want to get pregnant again for at least 4 years. Would Depo be a good choice for me?

how do you use the super kegel device? how do you place it in between your legs? Do you stand with you knees locked while using it (and just tighten you buttock and inner thigh muscles)?

I am 16 years old and lost one of my front two teeth a few years ago. I think it looks really bad and was wondering if anybody knew what I could do about it. Am I old enough for an implant? I have a retained with a tooth on it but it looks stupid.
