General Health Care - February 2007

I work nights so during the day it is super hard for me to fall asleep sometimes. Just wondering if anyone had any ideas on how to fall asleep on those days you just can't sleep.

I have chronic neck problems. I have a Homedic Shiatsu 300 chair cushion... one of the best purchases I have ever made. However, it misses the tops of my shoulders and my neck.

I was looking into the "Homedics BKK-100 Therapist Select™ Shiatsu SPOT Massaging Cushion", seen on http://order.store.yahoo.net/ymix/MetaController.html?ysco_key_event_id=&ysco_key_store_id=yhst-37697109791737§ionId=ysco.cart.

Has anyone used this? Can anyone recommend a device that has worked for you?

One more often than not sees small children accompanying their parents to restaurants or other public places as late as 1 or 2 a. m.
We Europeans were taught that sufficient sleep was of the utmost importance for children's developing bodies. Could it be that the poor health found among Asian children is a direct result of lack of enough sleep?

I noticed I slouch a lot. Any help with fixing it? I've checked other Yahoo questions, the answers don't help much. Maybe someone else can help? Thanks!

I've been to 2 doctors and 1 specialist. If I cover my left ear, everything sounds as though I'm under water. My ear drum looks fine, no damage, they cannot find anything wrong. Yet I still cannot hear well out of it. A hearing aid has no effect. 1 doctor said it could be psychological but what does that mean?

*Note: contains details of an injury*

I injured the top of my foot pretty badly a week ago, and got some stitches, but there was an area that couldn't be closed and must be left open for a scar to heal. I've been back twice for wound checks, but the next time I'm scheduled to go in isn't for another 6 days. Today when I was changing the dressing, I noticed that in the open part that's healing, there is one spot that has suddenly become dark. I can't tell if it's dried blood or if it's black, meaning that the dried blood would be normal and nothing to worry about, but black obviously=very bad. I'm guessing, anyway. I unfortunately, live in NYC, and a trip back to the ER would be long both in getting there (I live in Queens but the ER is in Manhattan, and in wait time, average is 5 hours), especially if this is nothing to worry about. I think i'm just going to sleep on it and see what happens in the morning, but I figured it couldn't hurt to hear what you fine people have to s

I tried doing lighter weights and increased reps by 250% to get in tone. I did around 7 sets and now my muscles hurt so bad. It has been hurting since yesterday and I got over 10 hours of sleep, and I tried stretching my arm until my elbows lock but it hurts to stretch so I'm not able to lock my elbows. What does it mean when your muscle hurts after working out?
