I have literally given him 4 baths in one day. He can take a bath and an hour later smell like he hadn't had a bath in 10 years. The odor is so bad that it is all over the house. It is embarring when people come over. It's not a funk order either. It is just a bad smell. It is weird that I can't identify it with certainty. What do you think the cause could be and do you know of any natural rememidies to address the problem. I know he is too young for a colon cleanse. I believe people have to be 18 to get those. I am not sure. I just need your insight.

I've had headaches for the last few months including behind my left eye, my left cheek, and the back left side of my head. An MRI showed maxillary sinusitis which relates to the cheek, but I don't feel congested. Also I have a clicking noise at the base of my skull when I turn it to the left. I've tried a chiropractor, stretches, and home traction. The home traction seems to help a little, but the most success comes from taking Advil. So I repeat, is this possibly a deep, chronic sinus problem? Some sort of irritation, blockage, or inflamation?

So it says wash your hands before eating....

Is this true ?

I just received email from my friend in India whose my mother had an extensive cerebral haemorrhage in the basal ganglia on Jan 19th and has ever since then been in the medical ICU in New Delhi, and on a ventilator since the first week of Feb. She conscious and responsive, but not able to speak partly because of a tracheostomy done to facilitate ventilation and aspirate secretions caused by probable lower respiratory tract infection. She has also survived a bout of Pseudomonas.

Currently there is a lot of trouble weaning her from the ventilator. She can breathe upto 24 hours
without the ventilator, but then gets exhausted (heart rate went up to 168 one time) and the ventilator has to be re-applied for 12 to 18 hours before efforts are made again to get her to breathe without it.

My friend found that doctors in India, even the better practitioners, are not fully cognizant of some medications that are regarded as fairly basic in the US and Europe for the treatment of certain

no kidding....scrunch my eyes up when lifting as it feels like there is pressure behind it and it might get pushed forward....just one eye...it has always been the weaker eye but now I can't read even large writing with it. I don't notice unless I close my good eye(can't see properly) or weight lift (feel pressure). I am 39. history...Mum has macular degeneration and cataracts.

Spent the last year or so studying for various CPA exams (I know I suck as a student) but even with heavy studying in the past, the poor eye always bounced back after a day or two. Been to a military doctor in Iraq and had an eye test in Scotland...both said get a pair of glasses with a prescription for one eye or don't worry about it if the other eye is picking up the slack. I emailed John Hopkins after searching answers and am waiting to hear back.

Anyone know what causes this?

I am on holiday in the US (no medical insurance here) and on an extremely limited budget. I cannot find a doctor or nurse here to talk to on the phone or to arrange an office visit with today. I've been having pain/burning during urination and frequently feel the need to urinate for several days. However, today I also started getting strong, throbbing abdominal cramps, nausea and diarhhea. I don't want to go to the hospital unless it is absolutely necessary- as I don't have the money to pay for that. Will I live to see another day if I try to schedule to see a doctor tomorrow (if I can find one to see me) or is this something that needs immediate attention.
I know it is stupid to travel without health insurance- my situation at the moment made it impossible to organize. Any honest, helpful advice would be an absolute miracle. I would appreciate it immensely. Thank you.

Not as bad as ( Monk ) but it's rediculous, I hate it.
I think it all started when I saw a guy in a Bar bathroom #2 then not wash his hands and use the door knob. Now I get all kind of ideas. Thinking about where have their hands been before, touching something I have to. anyone in the same boat? It sucks but I can't help it.
