General Health Care - October 2006

I have two really bad ingrown toenails, one on each big toe. I have had them before but since I got pregnant and had my baby (on August 1st) they have gotten worse. I have tried the vertical cut and pull but they're still miserably sore... also I have gone up a shoe size! I didn't think that could happen at the age of 38. Anyway, they really hurt and if anyone has any solution other than cutting off my toes, I would love to hear from you. I don't have med insurance and can't afford a pedicure so I need a home remedy. Thanks...

they have been put on drugs for one thing or another, ADHD or something, and have been on them for years..what happens when they turn 18, are no longer on parents insurance, and quit taking the drugs, either because of money or they just dont want to anymore?

We are putting our kids on drugs for years and years, and neither the doctors, or usually even the parent, considers what happens later. I think we may be ending up with really problem filled adults as this happens - and there will be millions of them.

I'm taking my son there in 10 days time... I read about it onthe tripadvisor site and now I'm worried. Does anyone know anything about it. It would be horrible to go there and for it to be sweltering hot and we have to spend all of the tiem covered up in order not to get bitten....
When I have been abroad before and used DEET sprays the mossies still found one tiny little spot I hadn't covered to bite me!! I was even getting bitten on the top of my foot when I was wearing socks and hiking books whilst trekking through the jungle in Guatemala....
I'm kind of worried about it....

I talked to the athletic trainer at the school where we teach today about my shoulder hurting real bad. It hurts deep, and the majority of the pain is where i guess you'd call the back of my shoulder...like i said, feels deep. earlier, the pain ran down the back of my arm beneath the tricep, into my elbow. the pain in my elbow also felt deep earlier, but like i said, all of that pain has subsided. anyway, he did what i believe he called the "obrian test?"...or obrian diagnosis. it's where you hold your arm out in front of you, and try to push up against a downward pressure. when he did it, that's the spot where the pain was, deep in my shoulder. if there are any MD's out there that may know more about what this could be, or anybody that has/has had this pain, please let me know. he told me what he thought it "COULD" be, but didn't want to jump to conclusions. i want to see what others think.

I d'know, but I'm having a bit of a strain to use the toilet. I have a feeling the poop got "compacted" and is too wide around to (comfortably) fit through my hole. I tried taking a few squares of laxative , it made my stomach feel a bit bubbly, but not what I expected. Ain't got no enemas, got some off-brand metamucil though. I tried that, didn't really help. I'm desperate! I go to Six Flags tomorrow, got to poop tonight, can't go to the store! Anything that'll loosen/soften/completely make my poop watery?
