I got a 2nd degree burn from a motorcycle on my leg. I went to see a doctor and he said it was healing pretty well. He gave me some ouchless pads to put on it.. and some ointment. I was wondering if I should keep covering it.. if it is a big deal if I don't? I just don't know what is good or bad to do while it is healing?! help!

I can not go into Wal-Mart stores without feeling weak, dizzy and sick to my stomach. Years ago Sears had an outlet store in my town and I would get the same way. Now my boss has purchased a new building and I was there today and had the same feeling. I think its related to the lighting, is this possible? And if so what can I do?

I am allergic to all fruits and veggies. My allergy is so severe that I must carry an epi pen at all times. Raw, and cooked fruits affect me. Any suggestions on how to try and balance a good diet?

I've heard that taking vitamins for your skin helps improve the texture, skin tone, and prevent breakouts is this true? If so, what is good to take? Is Zenmed any good? I'm trying it now and I'd like some feedback so I know whether to purchase more as its very expensive ($30/90pills +s/h). I break out around the same time every month and I'd like a little more control over it. Also, I need help with acne scarring! Please help.

Hello, I need your opinion> I had chest x-ray w/ airway and/or pulmonary hiperexpansion result , had CT scanning w/ mosaic attenuation pattern, had another CT with mosaic perfusion, had stress test - normal, had ekg - normal.
I still don't know what is the problem and doctors are suggesting that is only muscle. I have constant chest and back pain, rib cage pain (left side), lots of gases/noise in my upper abdomen, am tired at all time, lack of breathing, swollen in different areas of my body at different time, gain of weight...
I do appreciate you personal opinion. thank you

My boyfriend gave me his blood results after he donated blood to the Red Cross to prove to me that he doesn't have anything. (I haven't slept w/ him yet) Now as far as hep b goes, they only test for the core antibody and it was negative. I am not concerned if he's immune or not, so is this test sufficient enough to tell me that he doens't have hep b? Or should I have him go get the antigen test or is this not necessary?
