I want to get a massage because I am an athlete and I lift and run 5 days a week. I am looking at different massage parlors around town and I am curious if there are different types of massages? I have heard of deep tissue massages and others, but what is a basic one I want to just relax me and sooth my soar muscles.

How do people not notice they are becoming so fat? I can understand getting a little bit chubby, but how do you make it to like 50 or 100 pounds overweight? They must notice when their clothes stop fitting or they see themselves in a mirror, so why don't they stop eating so much and exercise?

I know I'm definitely not fat. I have a waist. But it sounds to me like I weigh much more than I should. Am I borderline overweight?

My roommate does nothing but lay around all day. He doesn't even leave the apartment except to pick up a few things of egg nog and tomato soup and thats it.

He does no physical exercise and lives off eggnog and tomato soup. How bad can that be for you?

Just had major surgery cancelled at the very last minute, because my surgeon could not find enough staff. Went into the Royal Free yesterday, nothing to eat after 6am today, nothing to drink after 11, I am sitting there in my surgical gown, elastic stockings, waiting. Eventually the surgeon came at 1.30 and said she was sorry, nearly everyone had called in sick and she could not get a good enough team together to do my op. She said she would not be happy with fewer than 3 skilled assistants, (It's a long and complex op.) and she had phoned around various hospitals, but did not want to do a job like this with people she'd not worked with before.

She was really decent and sympathetic, and I respect her reasoning. Instead she spent the afternoon doing smaller ops with a smaller team. She has promised me January 7th. I'm grateful she was honest enough not to proceed and to explain why. But can the entire womens' surgical team (apart from one) really all fall sick on the same day?

My bro and i want to go on the detox diet and my mom says no. The reason for this is the first step of the diet, which is the three day fasting. Is water fasting ok for teens? I'm 14 and my bro is 16.
Thanks for your help!

My Bf and I had sex about 2 weeks ago and the condom broke. He swore up and down that nothing came out and that it would be okay. I am still worried though. I normally start my period right about now but recently its been starting a little later. I'm trying not to stress about it because i've heard that it can cause your period to be delayed. My boyfriend and I are definately not ready for a kid. Please help me.

I have a strange pain in my left hand. It is at the base of my pinky finger, inside the hand just below the knuckle. It is surprisingly painful. It doesn't hurt unless something touches it. Like if I pick up my computer pressure gets applied accidentally, and then it hurts very badly. I have had no accidents with it, have not bumped anything - so I cannot explain it. There are no outward appearances of injury. The pain seems to be getting worse instead of better. Each time it hurts it seems to hurt worse than the previous time.

Should I be concerned? How long should I wait until I see a doctor about it? What could it be?
