Every summer, and sometimes even in the winter, I am constantly bitten from head to toe by the most annoying and hated insects in the world: mosquitos. I tried every brand of bug spray and they still don't work. Some bites even left permanent marks on my legs. I need something that works. Got any ideas?

My right eye has not stopped tearing since Wednesday night. It was never irritated and still is not irritated. The eye isnt red or pink or anything. It just keeps dripping down from the inside corner. I tried to look it up on google but it kept bringing me to "dry eye" subjects and my eye is not or has not been dry at all. I cant even wear make up because it runs down with the tears. What is going on!

I'm absolutely mistified at all the people answering Hillary's question with demands for free health care. If it's free who's paying for it? Don't you dare come to my front pourch and tell me I'm going to, not when the FDA keeps sending the BATF to anyone who's got real answers to our health issues. How many are out there who realize health care isn't a Right, feeding yourself properly so you don't get sick in the first place it the Right.

I dropped my brush in the toilet, and I tried to get it before it hit the water, but to no avail it hit the water. A bit of water (okay a bit more) landed straight into my eye, I tried to blink but was obviously not quick enough. Will I get a diease from the toilet water?. I rinsed my eye with water, and now 6 hours later bought an eye rinse because my eye feel a bit dry, and feels different. So anyway... any advise. I know this may be a silly question but would like to know. Thank You ! Honest sincere reply please

I work at a home healthcare agency entering Medicaid invoices into the state website. At the end of the day I go to look at the report that says what we will be paid. However the amount that goes into the bank account is always smaller than the one I see on the website. Why is this?

Have you ever had a situation where you had a booger in your nose that was so annoying that finally getting it out was the best feeling ever?

I once had booger in my nose that was driving me crazy. I could feel that something was there ever so slightly but all of the digging and blowing could not get it out. I started having my doubts thinking that my nose was just irritated. So after using the nasal spray a few times during that day I managed to blow a booger out of my nose that was 2 inches long and a half inch wide. OH WHAT A RELIEF?

What was your best nose blowing experience?

Since December, I've-well, it all started with pain on my back, the leftside. I've had the urgancy to use the restroom (urine) a lot, and then the pain migrated to my lower abdominal left side. Went to a doctor and he said it was my kidneys at first, went again he said it was my lower intestant. I recently switched doctors when the pain migrated to my back again, this time my right side. THEN, after having gotten my period, the pain went to my lower right abdominal area and my pelvic area. They did an abdominal ultrasound to see if I had olvarian cysts or whatever, but it came out normal. He sent me to the ER, thinking it was my appendix. They did a CT scan and that came out normal, too. So they sent me home with more pills. I've had a burning, tingling pain ever since I got the pain in my pelvic area. Anyone else have these symptoms? Or know what it could be since I've already gone to the hospital and the pain in my back has returned with the constant frequency to urinate.

I have had headaches all week and I have been sick to my stomach a couple of days. It was a sharp pain when it stung me. I thought maybe it was just a sudden sharp pain in my toe. It stung me in the morning and it did not even bother me until that evening. Then it was pink on half of my big toe and it was so painful that I could not even touch my toe. When is a trip to the doctor in order. It is no longer sore or pink.

Well, a while ago i hurt my knee in gym class. Not it really hurts! I went to the doctor. He said it was maybe torn/strained. I went to a orthapidic and he said I just have 2 rest it. Now it has been 2 weeks later and I still can't walk on it. We are going back to get an MRI but the office is closed over the weekend. Should I use crutches becaause it really just makes it worse if I walk on it. What other things would you suggest besides crutches? I have rested, ice, wrapped, elevate, creamed, and my mom makes me take these pills. And nothing has worked. Should I use crutches 4 the weekend. I am doing some stuff out of my house. Were can i get crutches if u think so? We had a pair but my mom threw them out without realizing well actually need them again.
