I have been diagnosed with hemorrhoids. I am on fiber and stool softeners and the bleeding is pretty much gone. the first problem is i still feel iritation down there and the ointments etc. only make it more irritated. the second and more annoying problem is that after i use #2 i get these weird cramps. they go on for hours. it feels like i am trying to squeeze out a fart or something. it is weird. my Doc seems to only be an expert at taking my money and he says my hemorrhoids are not that bad so i am wondering if anyone every had a similar situation.

When I briefly lived in Arizona, I noticed that the pain was greatly reduced but the fatigue, and sleep problems were the same. What is your take on that?

i went to the doc today and she diagnosed my condition as a mild form of eczema. Its mainly the skin on both my palm peeling off, and little bumps appearing in between fingers. she prescribed me with elomet cream to be applied twice daily. is there any food in particular that i have to avoid to help it heal faster?:) thanks!

I have anxiety, and serious gyne probs at the moment. I have been very over worked and highly stressed too .
I have never had high blood pressure in my life, but the past couple of months, my readings have been between 140 / 83, and 144 / 90. My GP says it has to come down. I have also put weight on the past year. I also seem to be breathless, I stopped the cigs a year ago. Is all these conditions connected, and what can I do.
Genuine replies please, thanks.

im not sure if i have a std or not. is there a way i can go to the doctor and get checked out for free? maybe a clinic or sumthing? my penis is itchy around the tip and it burns a little when i urinate. it also feels itchy on the inside. i dont have alot of money and the last time i went to a urologist it cost me like $145 just to see him. is ther a way i can just pay for some antibiotics. are there any o-t-c medicines i can take that are safe for penis. i heard maybe cortisone.

hi, my name is Ali, I am nineteen years old.My mother's name is Parveen Begum. My mom is suffering, but i cannot afford to pay for her medical expenses.She has pain, in her lower back, i have gotten her checked in a clinic, but the doctors recommend to get a ultrasound. The doctor did a blood test, and said the blood report was O.K, but they recommend her to get an ultrasound, that she might have God forgive, some problem in her Gallbladder. I am located in Ontario, California. She has a green card, thats all. She doesn't speak english, and is a housewife. Where can i get her some medical help, may be at a very low cost? pllzzzzzzzzzzzzzz help :(

I asked this question once before but I'd like to get some more ideas. I'm making a basket for my friend who has terminal lung cancer. So far I've got the "Crazy Sexy Cancer" book and some teas. I'd like the name of alternative therapy or inspirational books, things that stop chemo nausea, stuff that would be good to have in the hospital, products specifically for cancer patients, etc. Thoughtful stuff.

Thanks so much for your help!

I am 19 years old. It's weird because I never had a pimple problem until a few months ago and now they just keep coming and coming and they don't stop! It's like I was supposed to go through this as a younger teen but now they just keep coming. I wash my face 3 times a day with neutrogena pimple face wash and st. ives face wash. These pimples hurt too. I don't know if they're puss filled. What should I do?

I've had a bump under my armpit for about 3 months now. It turns from flesh color, to red every now and again and has increasingly started to hurt as time goes by. Today I discovered that the top of the bump, on the surface of my skin is squishy and EXTREAMLY sore to touch and for me to move my arm. The bump under the skin has grown and hurts increasingly more than it has before.
I've gone to the doctors and everytime they say come back if it gets worse. Any suggestions as to what it may be?

I need some ideas for a disease a character could have in a story. He's a male in his mid-30's in generally good health who is tall and on the slim side. He has a demanding job and is a work-a-holic and is sleep deprived, so he drinks lots of caffeinated beverages. I'm thinking it could be something that is caused or aggravated by this and stress. It could start to manifest itself slowly, and he would ignore the initial symptoms and continue working, but would have to cause a severe enough problem that he'd have to be hospitalized.

So, I am young..under 20.
I have a small cheast, but for some reason one is bigger than the other. the bigger ones nipple is also larger. It's really noticable. Also the bigger one is hardish and kind of has a big lump in the center. It's really weirding me out. Please help me. I don't want to die young.

About a year ago and a half ago i noticed a decent size lump under my right armpit. it has never hurt so i didnt pay much attention. lately it has grown to about half the size of a golf ball and is clearly visible if i put my arm to my side. it just kind of sticks out. i dont have insurance so i need to know if this is something i should get checked out. i also dont have a family doctor so who would i go see? i'm only 19 very healthy otherwise. i do have an undiagnosed condition where i go blind in one eye about once every 6 months. this started happening about the same time i noticed the lump. any connection?
