Im 15YO and I have this lymph node on my right groin thats been there for about 3 to 4 years. It is 1cm in diameter. It isnt rock hard and it isnt overly soft. It is VERY mobile. It has never hurt or anything. The thing is, you can barely even see it when I look in the mirror. In fact I never really see it unless I rock my body forwards and then, obviously, I can see it. Its sort of the same way with my left side. I have one in the exact same spot on the left. Im tall and lenky so I dont know if that has anything to do with it (6' 4" and 180 lbs.). I started lifting and working out 3 or 4 years ago (No it is not a hernia) for my college football career at UCLA. Everyone of my friends all tell me that this is definitely nothing and Im worrying over nothing. Im a HUGE hypachondriac. Please dont say go to a doctor. I dont like doctors. But anyways everyone has said this is nothing and I need to calm down and enjoy life. Are they right? I have had no symptoms of anything cancerous ever.

I just noticed it today, it's pretty big and red.. there is no head like a normal pimple and I tried squeezing it but nothing. For the last 10-20 minutes some weird liquid substance has been coming out of it and im wiping it away, what could this be? and any ways to fix it? I tried pimple stuff but the ooze coming out basically wipes it away

HI there,
I recently met a person who just had sex with a prostitute 15 minutes before. He offered me a beer bottle to drink. He opened the beer bottle for me and his fingers got well in touch with the bottle mouth piece. I couldn't say no for his offer and sipped the beer from the bottle as my lips and inner mouth got in touch with contaminated mouth piece of the beer bottle. I actually had bad broken lips due the extreme cold weather which I realized later. What are my chances of being infected through his fingers, contaminated with his semen fluid and prostitutes blood/vaginal secretions??? Thanks in advance. Looking forward.

april

Sometimes it's a loud roar & sometimes a soft rushing sound, but it's always there.

Can you get Hepatitis C from kissing (not french kissing but normal kissing)? I was wondering because I kissed someone who is rumored to have it and now I am scared about it.

Okay. so I've been "sick" for over a month and a half now. i get so many headaches and i just started getting bloody noses. i basically have no energy no matter how much i sleep and when i got to sleep at night i just can't fall asleep. I'm rarely hungry but sometimes I'll just get like struck with hunger. I get pains in my stomach every once and awhile. I dont have a fever however. I get chills all the time and i also get dizzy often. my sineses also are painful sometimes. i've been to the doctor and saw 2 different doctors and one said sinese infection and the other said nothing was wrong but it may be mono. I've taken medications and o-t-c things. but i just don't know whats wrong.

If so, do you know of anyone ever using it. Its suppose to cure cancer and other diseases. Is this something that you would consider using if you had a disease of some sort.

That's what someone here on Y!A told me. I get them ALL the time. & also I heard that it might be the deodorant that's causing it. I have one right now that hurts & won't pop. Maybe I shouldn't squeeze it, but it hurts. It feels like a breast cancer lump, but I know it's not. & yes, I've heard how you can get breast cancer lumps in your pits.
