I'm not sure if I have more dandruff than a regular person. Some people say that I have some but some people say I don't. I probably have a little more than a regular person but I can not see much of a difference. How can you tell how bad is a dandruff problem.

Hi y'all,
I still wish someone really could lay on the details on how exactly HIV virus a.k.a. AIDS can be transfered through oral sex:
1.) if the female has HIV/AIDS and giving her male partners a fellatio/oral sex without condom, can this transfer it?
2.) if the female has HIV/AIDS and kissing her male partners, can this transfer it?
It's vice versa for the male too, can these transfer it?

I was told I have strep throat, I'm on antibiotics. I am still fevering badly, I woke up this morning completely drentched again in sweat, my clothing all wet and my bed sheets, is this normal when breaking a fever? It usually happens about 2 - 3 hours after taking tylenol or advil. Is it safe to do it for days?

I popped my hemroid at my friends house the other day with some of his eating forks and he kept yelling at me that it was contagious. I guess my question is which would be better next time a fork or a knife? Also is it possible to have a hemroid growing on top of another hemroid?

my husbands uncle just found out that he has a hedritary blood disorder, that favors the boys and I guess its involving the prothrombin. his blood clots abnormally. he had a clot go thru his lungs and heart and survived. he has clots sitting somewhere, i cant remember, but its pretty serious. and the strange thing is, his kids, my husband, my husbands sister, my mother in law, a cousin, all have the same symptom-severe migraines...could this be a link? and if it is more receptive to the male side, then I should get my son checked out for this. he is only 13 months old right now. Wouldnt they have seen it when they did the blood tests when he was born? Any way, what is this disorder called and what is the prognosis (hope i used that p word right...haha)

For several months I have had loose bowel movements, loose bowel movement with an oily substance, dark green firm movements and nausea has accompanied this along with weight loss and fatigue. I am unemployed and do not have insurance. I am a bit worried since it has not gone away and I am 40 yrs old. Could it be cancer or liver disease?

My mom has vericose veins on her legs and about a month ago, one became very swollen and soar. She went to the Dr. and they did an ultrasound. No clotting. So he started giving her injections to break down the vericose veins but one of the veins became red and painful. She went back to him to let him know and he said that it's now a clot. He told her to take a blood thinner (bayer aspirin) and gave her an appt. to come back in two weeks. Now she has another swollen bump on the other leg. She is going back Thursday but I wonder if the Dr. is treating this seriously enough.

I have the worst smelling discharge I've ever had. I've never usually been smelly... at all! So this is freaking me out a bit. It doesn't smelly fishy at all.. it smells like sour milk, or (this is really disgusting but..) almost like someone threw-up. It smells soo bad. It came out looking almost greyish or green even but when I wiped it, it was dark yellow. I'm going to the health clinic tomorrow, but I just wanted to know if anyone knows the answer to any of this? I'm scared its Trichamoniasis.. but it could also be B.V. I just got off the nuva ring also because I was getting too many yeast infections but this is the first week I'm off of it and I'm getting this horrible smell.

I accidently ripped out my belly button piercing. It's not bleeding anymore, it didn't bleed too much at all but it looks like it may be infected. It's red around it and kinda greenish where it is ripped.
I have been putting peroxide on it to clean it out and using neosporin. My friend saw it and said I should go to the hospital. I don't think it's that serious but at least should I go and get a tetanus shot?
