Whilst out in my garden last night I have been bitten on my left kneecap. It started as just a itchy lump which has progressed into a massive hard hot red lump that is making it painful for me to use the knee. Its also very very hot. I have used antihistamine and a bite cream but neither are working very well. I am generally quite prone to allergies just one of those unlucky people. Do I need to see the doctor or is this ok for it to be so swollen and sore? Thanks very much for reading this and hopefully helping out.

my Father was diagnosed with MM 4 months ago, he is only 43 and thats very young for this type of cancer. The doctors caught it in the final stage (stage 3 for this type) and they only think that he had the cancer for a very short time, approx. 6 months. He is missing parts of his ribs, coller bone, and spine. The doctor says it looks as though his bones are swiss cheese. He has a 5 pound lifting weight limit. I want to know how long my children have with there grandpa, and the doctors are avoiding the question. Can anyone give me a clue as to how long?

I have really bad myopia (nearsightedness) and I'm starting college in 2 days. My sight fluctuates a lot, depending on time of day and level of relaxation, but at its worst, it's around 20/400! I have spent the whole summer trying natural methods to try to improve my eyesight and have only experienced flashes of both improved vision and perfect vision, none of which were permanent. You're probably gonna tell me to wear glasses like everyone else but I'm not going with that, considering all the proof there is that distance glasses can encourage myopia to progress, and that I have, long ago, decided to give up wearing them because they're nothing but an unnatural crutch.

I DON'T want anyone here trying to convince me that vision training doesn't work. I want to hear from people who are familiar with the Bates method and/or eye exercises and are willing to help me...because so far I've been trying to improve my vision BY MYSELF...but it's a lot harder than I thought!

Do you have advice?

He also said that he went to the doctor and the doc said that everything was ok and not to worry it's normal. Ok so he let me see his penis and boy! was it a sight, I saw black,thick,mold type,clusters aroung the tip of his penis! Im thinking how could this be ok and just go away? Does anyone know what this could be on his penis? I really like this guy! could he be lying to me? why hasn't these clusters gone away in 6months! HELP!!!!!!

Due to a major plumbing problem at work, I was accidentally sprayed with raw sewage last week give or take a few days. Now, for the past two days I have had a fever and severe vomitting. I cannot eat or drink anything. Think it's the flu or a result of the spraying? No one else around me is sick so far. No insurance means no doc. Any idea how long it would take for one to become sick from a spraying? I know this is comical and sort of a silly question but I feel like I am going to pass out from being so weak now. Thanks...
