I started feeling sick right after work yesturday, I've been in bed, drinking water and eating soup. I laid down to go to sleep 6 hours ago and I still can't fall asleep because I just keep salivating. It's like just flowing out of my mouth and everytime I try a piece of bread it makes me feel a bit better but only for about 7 minutes and I'm almost sleep until bam, my mouth is full of saliva again. I just want to sleep... Any one know how to make it stop?

Everytime I sleep on my back I get nocturnal calf cramps.
If I sleep on my stomach the problem doesn't occur, but of course people move in their sleep and it would just be nice to lie on my back. Has anyone suffered from the same ailment or found a cure?

It is a lump on my right leg which is only visible sometimes like when I stay in certain positions. It is most commonly visible when I put my weight on my right leg and walk on it.
It's a very soft lump and I can easily press it down. I do not feel pain and it is not red, or any other weird color--It is under my skin and blends in evenly. It is about the size of a quarter.
I have had it my whole life.
What could it be?
I always forget to mention it to my doctor and wonder if it is worth a visit to the hospital?
As I said, I've had it my whole life and it has not changed one bit. It does not bother me but I do not want it there. I do not like the way it looks when visible.
What could it be???

I was dreaming I was jack bauer in a sinking ship and the oxygen supply was running low. no underwater breathing apparatus could be found. i woke up on the floor covered in blood. I had a concussion, broken nose, and my lip needed 10 stitches. I live in bangkok so the doctor couldnt even speak english. the scarring is minimal, but i am still concerned whether or not my brain functions normally.

I have started doing pranayama but one problem is after taking deep breathe and then exhaling it I feel fatigued soon, as if I am not able to sit and see dark in eyes. I stop doing it for a while and gradually recover. Should I continue pranayama or should I not? may be my body cannot tolerate this?
Another question is have you noticed that pranayama involves deep inhalation and exhalation and usual aerobics like running also give rise to deep and frequent inhalation and exhalation. so are these two (pranayama and aerobics) equivalent? wiil it be ok if I do only one of them and not the other?

My wisdom tooth have been bothering me for about a year. I went to the dentist and they said that i wouldnt need to get them removed because i had enough space in my mouth, so within the year the pain would come and go. The last week or so, i think my left wisdom tooth is growing,,,it is very painful. I know the doc said that it is normal since its growing but my throat is swollen also. is it because the area near my wisdom tooth is inflammed? or can it be something else.but why would the left side of my throat be swollen and its hard for me to swallow.

I recently have taken up boxing as a sport but when I punch my wrists hurt so much. I dont know if it could have anything to do with the fact that I type a lot and have been for years. Does anyone know why I might be hurting?

Sorry if this is gross... but i have to ask it. I just had some chiropractic work done on my back, i have A LOT wrong after 17 years of competitive figure skating (im 19), i have scoliosis(pretty bad), pinched nerves in my lower back and hip, multiple occurances of whip-lash, and my neck is all screwed up besides the whip lash. Today was my first adjustment and i was wondering if doing things to the spine will make your bowels more active or anything. I know that back problems can cause constipation but will adjustments make you have to go poop? Maybe from the relaxing of the muscles it causes the bowels to relax....maybe i just answered my own question, anyways i still want to hear from you guys.
