I was diagnosed a month ago with genital warts caused by HPV. I have only been active with one person for 3.5 years and now it has just appeared. My partner has had past partners but no symptoms like I experienced. I know that some guys can be carriers. Lately, he said he is experiencing itching and may have a breakout. We are both lost..I mean, it took me this long to get it? Can you get it from anything else apart from genital to genital contact? We are very safe, condoms every time..I know that's not enough though. Before he met me, he had not been with anyone for prob. 2-3 years. This is what confuses me the most. I've messed with guys in the past, but it was more foreplay, NO genital to genital contact. I definitely got it from him though, right? Please turn the light on in this situation. Thank you.

I started birth control for the first time a month ago. This is the first period I have had while I am on the pill. I was on my period for 3 to 4 days before one day I used the bathroom and at the end of peeing it hurt really bad after that a little blood dripped out. It wasn’t dark. Each day the pain gets less but I think I am seeing more blood. I’m scared I don’t want to tell me mom just yet.

I located a tick the other day which I removed rather easily... no pain or anything. I suffer from bad allergies so its hard to tell what my symptoms are. No swelling or anything like that though. Should I see a doctor right away or wait a little bit to see if anything develops. I dont have any health insurance right now, so money is an issue. Thanks for any input guys!

About a few weeks ago my Grandma found out that she has Congestive Heart failure. The doctor gave her some medication and told her that it was nothing serious. I believe that nothing bad will happen to her, but my mom is extreamly worried about her, she thinks something bad is gonna happen to my grandma. My grandma takes her medication. Her blood pressure is good, but her ankles swell up a bit from time to time. Is this anything serious that my mom has to panic about? I'm trying to tell her that everything is gonna be fine but she doesn't believe me. What can I tell my mom to convince her that my grandma will be alright? This all started when my mom's sister told her that someone she knew had congestive heart failure and died because he never took his meds. But I know that my grandma will be ok. The doctor even said she would still live for a very long time. Any kind of input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have heard numerous connections between being gay and AIDS. Why is sexual orientation a factor in concocting this disease? How would it even be transmitted (without being too graphic)? Wouldn't heterosexuals have as much a chance as homosexuals? How did the rumor start, anyways?

I have been advised there is no cure for tinnitus! I cannot survive awful ringing sounds in the ears? Surely there must be some cure available somewhere?

The ENT advised that there is still no cure for tinnitus. How on earth can this be a fact?

I have a friend who has HSV I in the gential area. She got it from her boyfriend when he preformed oral sex on her. Her boyfriend tells her that he didn't know that he had it because he has never had a cold sore. She doesn't want to be with him any more because she fells that she can't trusted me. However she is afraid to leave, because she will have to find a new partner, and either tell him that she has it or, not and take her chances. I on the other hand told her that it is not right, if she gets involved with someone he has the right to know, she than commented that he didn't tell me and I got it so why should I "I can't live with being rejected". I thought to myself she has a point, but she should do the right thing, than I started to wonderful if it was you would you do the right thing or would you take your chances and hope that you partner doesn't get it.. If it was me I would do the right thing no lies.. What do you think?

I know about innoculations, eg cow pox keeping out small pox. What about if I have a common cold- would that protect me from measles, mumps or rickets? If one illness is acting in a body, will it keep others out?

I love to be outdoors and am definitely a summer fan, but I am allergic to all the suncreens that I have used. I recently was using titanium dioxide for a couple of years with no problem but this year I suddenly began to get hives from it! Actually, that's not such a bad thing, because I also recently found out it's a carcinogen! I don't want to limit my summer fun because of this. I am fair skinned and I freckle easily. I would appreciate any help. Thanks.

I haven't lived with airconditioning since I was a baby. It's not usually needed where I live. I do notice that when I'm in a car, office, or home with A/C for any long amount of time, I often develop a sore throat. I'm going to be moving to the desert soon where everyone has, and needs, airconditioning nonstop for about 9 months of year. Does anyone know if there are any health risks associated with this? Thanks

I lost my job a couple months back and have been in the process of finding a new one. I'm 21 years old but have bad acid reflux and Protonix solves my stomach problems. Without it I would be having food come up often. My doctor has been giving me Protonix for over a year and it's worked great. My doctor won't prescribe more because I call for refills and I only have 10 left with no job yet coming. I looked online and found www.brand-pharmacy.com which sells generic protonix that can last me for quite some time. First of all, are these suppliers safe? Second, how trustworthy are they to come through with what they say? I don't want to give these people money then either have them screw me or send me something that doesn't work or hurts me! I've never taken generic so the more info on it the better. Thanks in advance!
