Ok, I twisted my knee more than 3 weeks ago skiing. It was really sore the first week. I didn't have any problem putting my weight on it. It was just sore when I would bend my knee. It seems fine now, but sometimes my knee is still a little sore. Like when I'm sitting at a restaurant, I have a habit of bending my knees with my feet under my seat. After sitting like this for a while, when I try to stand up, my knee is stiff and sore until I walk it off.

Do you think it would be a problem if I started light running? Anyone have a similar experience?

I fell today and scraped up my right knee pretty good. I think there's like a large scab starting to form about the size of a half-dollar (it's a big dark brown spot, and the cut itself isn't that deep). I cleaned it with an antiseptic wipe and put some bandaids over it, but then the wound started leaking this sticky stuff, so i had to take the bandaids off. Should I be keeping the bandaids off and letting the wound air out? i dont want it to get irritated by my pants either though.

i was at the beach today and it was really windy at times, and noticed there was sand in my ears. i dont know if it got in the canal and i don't want to use qtips because that might push it in more. what is the best way to remove sand without trapping it inside the ear and without damaging the eardrum or causing ear infections?

The burn isn't very severe, but it took off the very top layer of skin. Seriously, I thought of using Preparation H because of its soooooothing properties, and because it is more often applied to sensitive tissue too ;-) Would that work?

My 1 year old son just got stitches across his forehead. The stitches are supposed to disolve and there is a sort of tape on there that is supposed to fall off by itself. How do I take care of the area? And is it ok to give him some Motrin in the morning? How do I keep him from messing with it? Will there be a scar? ( the gash was so deep I could see his skull.)

He claims he can't stop. I don't know how to help him. What could happen to him? Could this kill him? He's been complaining about headaches now. Could it be from the lack of sleep or could he be on the verge of a stroke? Please help me. I really need some serious advice. Is there anything he could take to help him stop or deal with the withdrawal better?

Did you know that your body needs a break from tight clothing, and that by sleeping naked your body gets a breath of fresh air to it, that is healthier than wearing pajamas to bed?

yesterday as I was clibing into a van, I lost my grip and balance and fell back on my butt onto the concrete and jammed my back. I was rushed to the hospital to have it checked and nothing was broken and my tailbone area hurts whether I'm up or down so the pain seems neverending.

what sucks about it is that I was on my way to San Francisco when this happened and the whole trip was ruined on my part.

I've been having a stuffy nose for more than a week now. It always goes away. But, the next morning when I get out of bed, I sneeze again and it comes back. And then it goes away and comes back in the morning again. Its so annoying!

I woke up this morning with this horrible pain between my shoulder blades (mostly near my spine). It hurts when I take a deep breath or swallow either food or drink. I dont have insurance so therefore I dont have a doctor to go to. Any idea of what this may be?
