Does anyone have experience in ultrasound pics? My friends baby does not look right. I believe she is 7 months and it appears the hand is webbed, the face is distorted on one side and the baby's eye is wide open as if no eyelid. Please tell me I am wrong. Can you email me ONLY IF you have experience in working in ultrasound and I will email you the pic. Many thanks.

I have a new MP3 player (Creative Zen) and it came with ear buds instead of earphones.

I have NOT put the buds far into my ears, I keep the volume on #1 or #2 so it's not loud, but my ear canals are incredibly sore for about 3 days after each time I use the ear buds.

Is this normal and my ears will someday get used to them? I gave up on buds years ago because my ear canals got sore.

My old earphones won't plug into the MP3.

So my nose was ok as a kid but know at 28 it is crooked. the actual nose is straight but it sits off to one side, so I look different from both sides. It feels like the bone at the base of my nose is crooked, also I cant breathe well through one side. Is there anything I can do?

My fiance says the eye has no feeling, that only the eyelid has feeling. And that pressure can be felt because of the nerves behind the eye, but the eye itself has no feeling. I don't believe it. Is there a website that discuses this?

on wednesday a slightly hurt my knee at my dancing class. I jumped and it must have twisted strangely, it hurts on the right side of my left knee. inside slightly. It was fine to bend it but when i put too much weight on it or ran it hurt. Yesterday, friday, i had tennis and i had to run and it became extremelly painful and very hard to walk, this lasted about ten minutes and then it was totaly fine. I now only have the very mildest discomfort. Did this burst of pain help in some way? what was wrong with me? will it come back? THANKYOU

My daughter has a cold. The common coughing and runny nose type. I don't have any cold medicine on hand, and she can't sleep. I do have ibuprofen. Will giving her an accurate dose of that help her to sleep, or is it the wrong thing to do?
I've cuddled, and rocked, and given sips of juice...she's four years old, and just miserable...pharmacies won't open till the morning.
Any advice is very much appreciated!

I broke my ankle last week in 3 different spots and shattered the bones, I had to have surgery with 3 screws and a metal plate in my ankle, I have a cast from my toes to under my knee. The doctor said this was ORIF (open reduction internal fixation). My question is, how long does it take for this to normally heal, and any advise I seem to only be comfortable when lying down. I can't sit with my legs down or even sit in a chair with my leg propped up for more than an hour without my leg starting to swell. The pain is getting a little better, sometimes it hurts alot. I was just wanting anyone that has ever had this type of fracture to give me some advise. The doctor said no weight on it for 60 days. I have a walker and wheel chair and they work okay. This is the first broken bone I have ever had and I am not the type of person that stays down or still so I feel I am somewhat impatient.

About a week and a half ago, I slipped in the bathtub and
hit my side where my ribcage is on the side of the tub. It
hit hard and knocked my breath out for a minute, after I
calmed down a little, my breathing was ok but I decided not to go to the doctor because I have no insurance. It is still so sore I can't stand my pants buttoned, my stomach
is even sore. Wearing a bra hurts my ribs. Any suggestions on anything that might help? I know my bones aren't in the greatest shape being in menopause,
any suggestions?

I put sheets on and pillow cases tuck it all in before i go to sleep, but when I awake there's nothing left but the matress, and its off the frame by 5 feet. The sheets and pilllow case are off and scattered across the room. There is no memory of any of it, I sleep hard and don't wake up for 8 hours. The matress even has rips all over it, from to to bottom.
