I find it hard to sit comfortably and I really miss getting exercise. I have already been and had an Xray and been prescribed strong painkillers, but is there anything I can do to help them heal quicker or to ease the discomfort?

I can't hear real good when I am in a crowd of people, I learned to read lips, throughout my lifetime because of this.

It might sound like I am trying to be funny, but this is a serious question! I get severely constipated (I can only go twice a week). I work out regulary, eat a healthful diet, drink plenty of water, and have seen a doctor about this, who replied I am "naturally that way". Does anyone have some foods that help (besides Fiber- I eat so much already) or natural laxitives I can try? Sorry if this question was too gross.

I have knock knees, where instead of my legs going straight down at my knees they go in and then back out. It really bothers me and I was wondering if anyone knew if there is some kind of surgery I could get?

And does this often lead to serious injury?

My friend told how close he came to crushing his daughter's fingers by accident. It struck me that you could get some very serious injuries from such a thing.

I woke up with a sore eye and couldnt open it. Have had a cold for a week and yesterday ran cross country. I went to the chemist they said it could be an infection. I feel like theres something inside it someone said its probably an eye lash but Ive had tones of those and I no what they feel like. I can see out of it just hurts sometimes when I blink, open my eye wider and rub it. Help what should I do I want a doctor but parents just left me here alone.

For the past 4 days I have been getting these crazy headaches in my temple. Every time I look down to the left I get this throbbing pain in the upper right part of my head. Should I get it checked out or could it just be tension headaches?

There is a school that just opened near my area that takes 22 months to become an MRI Technologist. The only drawback is that I will not get a certificate in Radiologic technology. Therefore I will not be able to give x-rays.

Should I consider this program? I've applied to a few Radiologic Technicians schools already, but the wait list is ridiculously long.

sensitive than usual. When I rub my hands together it feels like I am wearing gloves. If I touch my face there is a weird combination of feeling like someone else is touching my face or that I am touching someone elses face. I can still feel things but my skin is much less sensitive than usual. This happens rarely, usually twice a year and lasts about an hour but it has happened 3 times in the last month and it is starting to freak me out. Any idea what it is?
