So i'm at work cashiering and all, then all of a sudden i start to feel really out of it. It's hard to explain the feeling, just really out of it and hard to concentrate, or kinda like i was gonna pass out. It's the same feeling i would get after staying up 24 hours (although that's not the issue). I asked the front-end manager for some chocolate cause i thought it might be my blood sugar but that didn't help too much. Perhaps it's a blood pressure problem? What could the problem be?

I just got in a fist fight with a sibling....stupid reasons of course...but anyway. My hands and arms are getting welted and brusing. What do I use to to help prevent brusing? I know cold to help with swelling, but what about the bruises? Or any other advice to get rid of them or cover them up, I have to work tomorrow. Thank you.

I've noticed my 14 year old son has this habit. I've spoken to his doctor about it and he reassured me that many children do this, and although not a particulary attractive habit, is not a bad thing. He said that many children never break the habit and bring it into adulthood with them, never telling even their spouses. Is this true?

I have such a hard time getting to sleep (hence I am here in the middle of the night!) My ideal environment for sleeping is dark, absolutely silent. This is not realistic at my home, lol.
I hate taking sleeping pills. What is a tried and true bedtime ritual/routine/habit that helps? I am tired of being tired!
I have tried...
TV, radio, reading. All of these keep me up.

okay, I have been lifting weights, running routes on the football field and playing tennis very often this past summer and have had no problems with my back. I played basketball today for the first time in a while and my back is killing me, and I felt fine while playing. Anyone else have this sort of issue?

What do you take for your migraines? How long is the longest one you've had?

I have had one for 4 days now, and it is really getting annoying - not being able to do anything at all. I was perscribed Midrin, that doesn't work. I have been taking Advil, but it keeps coming back after about 6 hours or so. Any suggestions?

Ok, one week ago my 7 year old daughter got bit by a dog on her leg, one fang puncture. We ended up in the ER with an infection, which they cleaned up, left the wound open and I clean and dress it every day. My question is in regards to hard muscle. Around the bite sit, there is bruising, the entire size of the bruise is hard, like a calis under the skin. I push, gently, and it's just hard, what could this be?

I tore all the tendons and ligaments when I dislocated my shoulder. Can I re-grow these naturally, or is surgery the only way?

I get aches and pains every day especially in the morning. I have to crack my neck, wrists, back and thighs or else they get very sore. I'm only 24, what could be wrong with me?

ok, I should explain. 4 years ago, I fell down some stairs before a night out - it hurt a little, but I thought it was ok, so put on my boots and went out. The next morning it hurt LIKE HELL, and I went to A&E who told me I'd sprained it. But even now, if I wear heels, for the next 1-4 days I will have a really sore muscle in that leg - I'm just wondering if this is to be expected or should I see someone about it??

Is there an injury or condition (like a stroke or aneurism) or combination that can very quickly make a person paralyzed and unable to speak, but the brain still works? Kind of like Stephen Hawking, but not so gradual.

I will have to get septoplasty in the future due to my deviated septum. And I was wondering weather I should have a ENT doctor perform a septoplasty and rhinoplasty. Or a plastic surgeon to do this. Keep in mind if I go with a ENT my health insurance would cover the hospital fees/anesthesia and septoplasty operation but not the rhinoplasty. If I go with a plastic surgeon my health insurance would probably cover none since its not in the network.

Do most ENTs do frequent rhinoplasty to fix broken or crooked noses due to accidents?

I'm just wondering. My 2 year old picked mine up and tried them on, it just got me thinking is this true or just another myth (like if you cross your eyes too much they will stay that way forever)
