I got a tattoo 2 days ago and having trouble keeping it "germ free" at work. It'd be great if I could use an instant sanitizer on the area.

My fiance doubles over in pain when he eats sometimes. It used to be everyday, but now it's not as bad. He doesn't have insurance, so thats why he hasn't been diagnosed yet. Probably an ulcer, right?

Back in August, a peptic ulcer I have had since high school flared up worse than ever, landing me in the ER. I recognize the symptoms of it and take Prilosec (though at times I forget). Sometimes, it gets irritated, but nothing debilitating.
The other night, I woke up with stomach pains--went to the bathroom and nearly passed out. I was doubled over, nearly vomiting, and got horrible cold sweats. I did not vomit but had diarrhea.
Anyway, I have had food poisoning before, and the symptoms I had were exactly those. However, nobody else who ate what I did that day got sick.
Does it sound like food poisoning or is this a bizarre ulcer flare up of which I should be aware? Thanks!

If I don't take the laxs I cannot go to the toilet at all even though I eat fresh veg and fruit every night. I'm sick of my meals always being veg and sick of being sick after taking the laxs. Can any one suggest anything to help with IBS? I am undergoing treatment on my bowells but the clinic I'm under make me wait upto 8 wks for the next lot of treatment. This seems to be taking to long as I'm waiting to start back at work and can't because of having to go to the toilet all the time.

For about two months now, I've been having a problem with my right ear. I have never had any serious problems with my ears and have fortunately always had excellent hearing in both. I can hear just fine in both ears at all times, but many times when I move my jaw (such as when I chew) I can hear the "inside" of my right ear. So it's not a problem with hearing external sounds. It's just that I also hear "inside" my right ear whenever I move my jaw, and as you can imagine it's a bit annoying.

I suspected the problem might have had something to do with wax in my ears, so I bought a tool designed to flush out ear wax. That did not help at all. I don't think it's a problem of ear wax. Like I said, I can hear fine. It's just that I'd rather not hear my own chewing and that sort of thing.

If I can't get rid of this problem on my own I will see a doctor, but I wanted to ask here for any information, advice, or suggestions I could get.

Thanks, and I appreciate any feedback.

I read that people who intend to do pranayama must refrain from all sexual activity and sexual thought, otherwise there might be harmful effect. But how can one avoid sexual urge which comes as naturally as say hunger? Is it true that yoga and pranayama are really meant for unmarried people like saints? Then what about common men and women like us? Does pranayama help in reducing sexual urges?

I have a friend that has a spot on her back that looks like a black head. It causes her a lot of pain, like a bad clogged pore, yet nothing ever comes out of it. We tried poking it with a needle, a small amount of blood came out, and she said it releived the pain for about a day. She went to a dermatologist who told her it was nothing. She's had this for over 6 months. How can a spot in your skin that causes you significant pain for 6 months be nothing?

Anyone with similiar experiences, advice, help or information would be greatly appreciated.

I really cant help it. Is there something wrong with me or is it healthy to fart? I dont suffer from constipation and eat a healthy diet. Do you think I may be allergic to something. All my family are farters too - perhaps it's genetic?

Stomach is bloated not due to fat accumulation. There is an uncomfortable feeling after meals and the stomach has a tight feeiling. Appears as though the colon needs to be cleansed.

I stayed home from work today with what feels like the beginning of an upper respiratory infection. I used to get them a lot as a child, but then for probably 20 years I almost never got them. Now in the last couple of years, I seem to get two or three every year. I know how to avoid colds....washing my hands a lot, not touching my face, get lots of vitamin C, etc. But is there a way to keep from getting these darned infections?? (By the way....any advice for helping get rid of one besides antibiotics would be great, too!)

I am always sooo tired. I go to bed at around 1-1:30am. I wake up at around 8:15am. Then when I get out of the shower, I never fail to fall asleep on my bed in my towel for about an hour. No matter what I do, I somehow cannot control this. I feel as though I could fall asleep on my way to work every single day. Now I am at work & I am struggling to keep my eyes open. Any tips on how to stay awake & get energized.

Also, on weekend. I cannot help but wake up exactly 12 hours after I fall asleep. (if I go to bed at 4am, I will wake up 4pm the next day, or later!)

Does this sound like I have some sort of sleeping order??

Sorry about all the details, but I really need info.

I love having my feet massaged, I now and then get my feet massaged, and it feels so good on my feet when they are massaged. I also love a foot reflexogoly treatment. The best part of a foot massage for me is my toes being massaged. Anyone had thier feet massaged, and how often?
