I have to sing in 2 places in 3 days! I have to sing in those 2 places on the same day but all of a sudden my throat started feeling really really sore. I think it is because of the weather change. I am keeping my neck warm and I took some medicine. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it in 3 days!!!!!!??

I'm testing the theory that I'm allergic to foods of some sort...or I'm not equalizing the right nutrients. Too much of anything is bad...you need the opposite chemicals to balance things in your system... this is my THEORY. If you have any ideas why it stinks or why I sweat soooooo profusely...pleeeaase, let me know. And yes I have asked doctors ( plural ) oppinions! They say not to worry...I can't stand it! I need to do something about it! Yes, it's disgusting...yea, I don't need to hear about that fact! Real knowledge only please!

My friend has been injured at work and can no longer work. She has no medical or income at this time. She owes her doctor twenty dollars and he refuses to see her. They did let her come to the office to check her blood pressure. It was 150/110. They told her she could not get any sample meds or see the doctor.
Isn't there some responsibility on the doctors office. I mean can they really just send someone out the door knowing they are very ill?

About 3 years ago, I slipped off a wet porch and landed on the cement 3 steps down. I landed on my right butt cheek, creating a massive bruise, a knot and a broken tailbone. Ever since then, at least once a week, I have severe, sharp pain in the right cheek, where the knot is. I dont generally have pain in my thigh, though sometimes, however, not at the same time as my cheek. The pain is intense enough that I cant sit on the cheek. I went to the dr. when this happened, but have not gone back for the pain. Some people say sciatic, however, I dont have any bulging disks, herniated disks, etc. Does anyone have any ideas??? Thanks in advance!

my ear lobe is infected for sure because of the puss that sometimes comes of it, but instead of using rubbing-alcohol or Hydrogen Peroxide, can i use a little bit of hand sanitizer to try healing it? I thought it might make sense because it also has alcohol in it that can heal it. is this appropriate or effective in anyway?

If blood flows through the entire body then what happens when a limb is cut off? Since the vein or veins that the blood is flowing through is cut off, then how does the blood finish its course? Do doctors redirect it? Or does blood stop flowing to that part of the body? I need to know its driving me crazy!!
