I went to the doctor and explained I felt sick as well as probably had whiplash due to a fall, she did not mention that the nausea could be due to damage to vertebrae? She just arranged a load of blood tests. Should I see a chiropractor?

My 7 year old is very curious about how the body works, not just the usual things but how the nerves all work together to make your hands move etc. I have tried explaining but really struggling! Is there a book (with English spellings) that someone could recommend that could explain things simply and clearly?

Hi everyone, I'm having terrible trouble waking up in the morning when my alarm goes off. It's not that I'm being lazy and lying awake in bed, I just cannot keep my eyes open and always fall back to sleep. I go to bed early and sleep well but I don't know what else I can do, so your top tips on this would be much appreciated!

I've got a white spot on the back left side of my throat, I just noticed it this morning because I felt like something was stuck in my throat. I had a look, its about the size of a pen nib, doesn't hurt and feels a bit like sand paper when I swallow. Does anyone know what this is? I have heard that it can be food that accumulates in the cavities in your throat.

I would like to get one of those tests where you have to read texts of decreasing size in order to find out which strength of reading glasses are needed. If possible I would like to find one that can be printed off rather than just veiwed on a screen. If not, does anyone know the normal font types and/or sizes that are used to test near vision in a standardised way?

Thanks very much

Any good way to prevent sinus problems, colds, coughs and flu during cold weather? (Besides wearing thicker clothing, using chemical warmers and using a humidifier which I have already done.) New alternative methods welcomed eg. perharps acupressure?

I yawn and am tired, yet, when I lay down to sleep, i can't shut my mind off. I've tried Tylenol PM, but it doesn't work. I don't want to take any OTC sleep pills or RX pills because I don't want to become dependant. I just want to keep from screwing up my sleep schedule. It happened once before where I basically went to bed at 5 am and woke up at 1 pm. I don't like it, but one night I can't sleep and it messes me up really easily and is hard to fix. Is there some remedy? Should I see a doc and try the new drug lunesta? Please help!

About three weeks ago, i got my wrist slammed with a metal door, while goofing around with my friends. since than, a bruise came and went. But on my wrist, there still is a bump on top of one of my veins. Now it isnt a bigl bump, and I could only notice it if I bent my wrist back, and rub my finger down the general location.

I've noticed before and after the injury, that if I sit for too long at a certain position or if I fall alseep on my arm, it gets numb for about 5 mintues. Should I be worried about a blood clot?

My leg has been hurting for the past 4+ months. It hurts all down from my behind down the thigh and into my calf. It's like a muscle pain and it hurts when i walk, bend over, stand for long periods of time. Like i can't even lift my leg to put my socks on without it hurting. I don't have insurance so I refuse to go to the doctor anytime soon. Ibuprofen/advil doesn't work or help. I wear flip flops a lot and my mom seems to think that is the reason why, but i disagree.

I have very tiny white pills. On one side it is engraved "377". There is nothing on the other side. It is sort of rectangular but it's rounded. I am hoping that these are pain pills because I have a really bad toothache. The label has been rubbed off.
