My dad said that his tooth has been in pain for the last 2 days but it is getting unbearable. There is black on his gums around the tooth. He keeps calling emergancy dentists, but ironically non of them are picking up. What could it be?

I got my wisdom tooth taken out yesterday (friday) and i'm about what my limits are on eating.. I really dislike soup I never eat that but all day yesterday thats what I ate and it ended up making me sick this morning. I want food with substance but it seems like everything I wanna eat my parents are telling me its not a good idea. People that have gotten their wisdom teeth (tooth) removed what did you eat and another thing is, cigarettes. I know it's bad to smoke cigarettes because of dry socket but i'm a regular smoker and Ive cut back but I still wanna smoke atleast 2 a day is that bad. No criticism please i'm just trying to figure out how bad the cigs really are for me right now.. I admit to being a little stubborn but i'm just unclear on what I should do. Also the doctor told me to be off for 3 days but i'm considering going to work tomorrow (my 3rd day) I havent decided yet just trying to get someone elses opinion.

I have a neighboor who is like a younger sister! I love her sooo much!

She thinks she is fat!

I'm always like "You are so pretty u are not fat!"

So we went to the bathroom and she weighed herself.

She is just turned 12 like... a month ago or somewhere around there.

So she just turned 12 and she is 116 lbs.
She said her weight bounces around. Sometimes its 118 and sometimes 115.

Is that fat?
What is the average?

For as long as I can remember, my husband and I have to have a cloth beside us after making love! I even have had to put a towel on to stop myself from leaking!

I would really appreciate serious answers to this, as although, it has never caused us problems or upsets, I am really curious to know if that is the norm

I just turned 20, Im single, and Im still a virgin. I measured my penis once just for kicks, and it was 7 and a half inches when erect, and slightly short of 6 inches around. Im not fishing for compliments or a pat on the back. I just honestly want to know if it is "big enough", or if it will hurt a girl or feel good for her. And yes ladies...there IS at least one guy conscerned about putting his partners pleasure before his own.

And also, I should mention I dont feel comfortable with the thought of having sex with anyone younger than me now since Im not a teenager anymore, but Im also not to sure about approaching older women either, so Im not sure what to do from here. Please help me.

All the media screams out is: Your fat! Lose weight! And when I read all these blogs from teen girls saying they weigh 140 and still think they are fat it makes me want to cry! According to health reports, "America IS obese". But is that really the thing to be saying when we have sixteen year olds starving them selfs to look "hott" like the anorexic cocaine using celebs? Is America fat because we are depressed? Or are we just lazy? How bout these anorexic women who are 25 and weigh 105 pounds- is that really obese?

So men, what do you think? If a man had relations with?

I have multiple (2 or 3 to be exact) personalities and occasionally I talk to myself, when no one is around. If I have to let something out (usually caused by fights, arguments or humiliation) I can have a conversation with myself for up to an hour or more. Does that make me a mild schizophrenic?

I had blood tests to test my thyroid function. I got the lab results today in the mail. It said that my thyroid function is at a 3.48, but that's all it said. I do have a doctors appointment on Tuesday, however, I would like to know what this means now, so I can be better informed when I see the doctor.

Thanks.

I have an 18 hour flight to China in about 4 days and I wanted to sleep on the plane to pass the time and help with jet lag. I have a hard time getting to sleep on planes; so I was wondering what a good over the counter sleep aid would be? I've taken DIphenhydramine HCL, and it hasn't seemed to really work at all. Thanks!

I'm 16 and think I have some sort of shopping anxiety (is there such a thing). Most girls my age love the mall. They love the atmosphere and everything else. I do love fashion...I love new clothes. But, for the past few years I've been living off of my cousins old clothes. Which is okay, but they aren't the latest and greatest current fashion items. Before I go to the mall I like to plan out what I need, and what I want to get. I write down a certain item and list the store where I will get it from, even the colour I like. I'm excited and like to put together oufits on the internet that would suit me. But, as soon as I get there, my mood just goes way down. I couldn't care less about the planning I've done ahead of time. I just want to get out and go home asap. Then, as soon as I get home, I regret the fact that I didn't get anything. I hate everything about the mall. The prissy people who look you up and down, the crowds, the slow walkers...everything. What can I do about this?
