mouth to mouth is great in theory, but do you really want to put your mouth on someone else? I'm looking at the "Chest compressions only" theory...looks pretty good!

My ears are popping almost constantly. Mostly it isn't painful, except when I lay down. Is there any way I can fix this without seeing a doctor. It has been going on for at least 4 months.

I know stopping smoking makes you gain weight but I'm not sure if the reverse is true.

About a month ago I broke my big toe. And it's not really a big deal, but I couldn't imagine breaking something bigger! (Like a shin bone or a rib.) I broke mine playing sand soccer. Ehh, it was painful. (Well, duhh..) But thankfully it's almost healed.

So yeah, have you ever broken any bones?

TICTICKCHICK:: Why are we fighting anyways? LOL, Wasn't it over Cristiano Ronaldo? I don't know, but it's silly! Umm, yea. So sorry for all of the things I said and how I overreacted. Well.. bye!

How do I know If I have an ear infection. The last time I went to the doctors for the opposite ear they told me it was just inflamed and it had one of those little pimples in there. How do I know if the other one isnt doing the same thing?

The symptoms I have are:
Severe pain starting from the neck to deep inside the inner ear.
Swelling of the ear canal
Pussing
bleeding
headaches
peeling of the top layer of skin from inner as well as outer ear
earring hole pussing and very painful
No cold or sickness, no fever
dizziness
very very slight hearing loss

This one is a lot worse than what happened in my other ear. How do I know for sure WITHOUT going to a doctor.
