I've been hit in the face, and kicked in the last 24hrs, yet the cut on my thumb is causing me the most pain and irritation. What pain stops you?

I'm about 18 years old and have been getting Migraine headaches since I was 10. I went to a specialized head doctor and he said that I may grow out of migraines later on in my life or I will have to live with them forever. I'm the only kid in my school who gets Migraines so when I used to go to the nurse she never believed me.

• I was wondering though how common was it for kids my age to get migraine...???

• If there were any medicine (non-prescription) that works on Migraines except Excedrin???

• and if it is common that when I do have a Migraine I get extremely hot, I throw up and yawn alot?

Do you think smoking cigarettes should be illegal?

Why or why not?

Hello Experts,
I have been experiencing this for a while now. Every morning when I brush and tongue-clean, I have this sensation of throwing up(which I think is normal). But I observe a slightly thick and slightly yellowish liquid comes out while throwing up like that. I had been diagnosed with hiatel hernia 2 years ago, went thro' medication to suppress acid and heart burns and so on.
This liquid is sour in taste in my mouth.

Does this have anything to do with serious issues in my stomach?. Pls guide me ..I 'm jobless and can't afford a insurance-less doctor visit..Thanks much

I get this sharp pain right in my chest which goes all the way through to my back. It sorta feels like when you eat too fast and the food isn't going down & gets stuck halfway through. I drink alcohol daily so I'm not sure if thats the cause. I've asked my doc and I had a ekg test and nothings wrong. So what can be the problem.

I have it in a splint, homemade with an ace bandage covering it. Would a store brought wrist brace be ok? It hurt but not too bad, and there is no swelling or deformity at all...

I got stung by a redish/orange wasp yesterday. It hurt really bad of course but today it looks worse. My ankle looks very swollen. The sting is on my ankle && I already have really skinny ankles, but now I can't even see my ankle bone or whatever that is. Yesterday we put a tea bag on it to get the stinger out. It also itches worse then anything I've ever had. Please help me I don't know if this is normal or if I'm having an abnormal retion.

I cut my foot swimming at the lake saturday, and it bled for 3 hours, i held a towel on it to get it to stop bleeding. i was a pretty deep cut, but i decided not to go to the doctor. i hate going to the doctor, anyways, it has been 2 days since then and i am just wondering as long as i keep antibiotic cream and banages on it will it heal on its own? its hard to walk on my foot, i am afraid it will try to rip open and start bleeding again....

Ok - this is my third time getting kidney stones in as many years. Dr. puts me on painkillers and anti-inflammatories. This is getting ridiculous. Any ideas on how to pass the kidney stone faster -- or how to prevent them in the future?

I swithched from Sundown brand Melatonin to Natures Bounty (?)
, both say 300 as in milligrams I guess but the Sundown says 300 MCG and the other 300 MG. The new brand seems to be more effective, are they the same amount oand do diff. brands really differ.
The new brand is slightly diff. in ingredients.
