The doctor has told me to inhale steam from a bowl four times a day to try to cure a persistant cough,okay I said,but now not sure of correct way ,how long a session do I need ? I have some olbas oil so should think a couple of drops of that might help. Do I need a towel or is it okay without ?
Anyone else had to do this ?

I have got stretchmarks and thin skin on my legs. Lately I have gained quite a few spider veins and damaged capillaries. My skin has also become quite sensitive. Any ideas how I can reduce the sensitivity as I am finding it quite painful some days

I was diagnosed about a year ago with hypo-thyroidism and was put on Synthroid.

The problem is, I am beginning to feel like I have no energy again. (even though they have upped my dosage of synthroid) I have to sleep so much, I can't get school work done, and just in general do not feel well at all. I also seem to catch viruses and infections very easily, I've had bronchitis 3 times in the last year and recurring bladder infections, I've been having them from the middle of December to right now.

I went to an endocrinologist Friday and when he examined my thyroid gland, he felt something on the right side of it, so I had to get a lot of bloodwork done and am scheduled to get an ultra-sound next week.

What are the chances of having thyroid cancer, would they call me back if the blood results were abnormal or just wait until I go for my ultra-sound? Sorry I guess I'm just scared = ( If anyone has any idea what's going on, any feedback would be great, thanks...

I have a plantar wart, that i assume i received from walking barefoot through a locker room, or more likely, through the showers in my dormitory. i recently received a wart on the base of my penis - is it normal for common warts to appear on other parts of the body? i am not sexually active, but is it possible to pick up the std strain of hpv from a dirty shower floor?

thanks in advance for anyone who can help

I have severe acne, and i just got proactive for it recently hoping it would clear up my skin. Have any of you used proactive, if so, how long did it take for your skin to clear? I have been using for about 2 weeks, and im not sure how much better my skin is looking. i think the pimples are flatter, but still big and red. Is there anything that i can do to help the redness? What is a good cover up? (It has to be non-comedogenic) please help!! this is so frusterating

There is a visible straight line down the centre of her tummy and each side is a very slightly different shade. Does anyone know what might have caused this and will it go away as she gets older?

I have a DVD at home which is a Proffessor/Scientist and he states that the Vitamin B17 found in the seeds of stone fruits and seeds of other fruits is rich in an agent (B17) which helps to reduce the risk of cancer and can prolong age (it won't stop you dying, but it actually can help in your life expectency and life quality). There is a tribe overseas that constantly eats these seeds and the average life expectancy of this tribe is 95 years of age. The quality of life of the members of this tribe is also greatened from the fact they take this B17 daily. It is interesting to know if your someone who is a healthy eater and concerned about your health in the future.

If anyone is interested in the actual DVD itself, it is called the MAKING OF THE WORLD, BY DOCTOR KENT HOVEN.

a few minutes ago as I was watching the screen, I notices a blurry spot right at the focus point of my right eye. now, 15 minutes later, it has cleared in the center, but widened out and gotten larger. This has happened before, a while back, and it eventually just widened out and went away. It is painless and I feel no ill effects except for the slightly distorted vision is very slightly nausiating when I am reading...What is going on?
