If I don't set my alarm clock, I sleep for 10+ hours a night. Often times, I get a full 12 hours of sleep. That is half a freaking day!

Anyone else sleep that much? What have you done to get less sleep yet still feel refreshed?

*YAWN* this post is making me sleepy

I play Baseball, basketball and football as often as possible. The problem is the I am pulling my hamstring and groin a combined 3 or 4 times a year. Is this bad? Can it cause permanent damage? I am pretty sure if I lose about 20lbs it will cut down on the amound of times, but will not prevent it from happening. What can I do?

I've been to my doctor about migraines before, but I don't have insurance and can't afford the medicine.

What are some good home rememdies for it?

I've tried lying in the dark, quiet, with a cool cloth over my eyes. I have now had this particular headache for four days.

Please help!

It doesn't happen with all shoes (i.e. never with high heels). But with some shoes, especially with hiking boots, the pain shoots up from my right leg upto my spine. This happens within two days of wearing the shoes and doesn't go away for months at a time..

any suggestions?? Ofcourse i can stop wearing hiking shoes, but then i risk straining my ankles...

My 13 month old daughter has a horrible cold and her nose is now bleeding and cracked between her nostrils at the bottom. I feel so bad for her and I am using Puffs with lotion. I can't just not wipe her nose, but every time I do it gets worse, especially since she fights and pulls her head away from me. I have no lotion or antibiotic cream or vaseline but I do have some Lansinoh. Just wondering if it would work or if I should call someone to bring me something else (don't want to get her out being so sick).

my mum had a cervical spinal cord surgery on 7th, she has a wound on her near front neck, it's been almost 2 weeks but she still HAVEN'T removed the dressing, i wasn't there when my dad charged her out of hospital, i asked him did the nurse tell him how to take care of the dressing, he recalled nothing about it, and he said we shouldn't touch it anyway, because he thinks it should be removed by doctor/nurse on the follow up day (which was last friday, but the doctor had an emergency and didn't show up and the date has been postponed to tomorrow) so... is there any dressing should be removed by professional or all kind of dressing should be changing everyday, are we making a horrible mistake?

I stepped on somebody's foot while playing basketball last night and my ankle rolled. I had intense pain and my foot swelled up at my ankle and completely around my foot. I cannot rotate my foot at all and the ankle hurts to touch. I woke up in the middle of the night with intense pain in my foot. My foot is disfigured and I am in continuous pain. I can walk and somewhat put pressure on my foot.

We all know it's not good to keep all that stuff inside your intestines, but some people take longer than others. The Longest amount of time I have gone is over 3 and a half weeks without going. I had to see a doctor eventually who told me (and I quote) "That's not good". I agreed. I typically use to only go on a good week, maybe once every week and a half. And the pain would be horrible because it was so big. I don't suffer from this any longer as I discovered why this was happening. Now I'm as regular as rain on a bank holiday! So what's the longest anyones ever gone without going?

I do not wish to take medication for long term, any advice on holistic treatment. Will TCM assist or will it make it worse.
