In the USA, emergency medical providers that work in the pre-hospital setting are generally overseen, governed, and dictated to by nurses! Why??? In many other countries like South Africa, nurse are generally one step above housekeepers and are in no way allowed to interject their ideas into the world of EMS.

I have a blister on each foot, and I play soccer so they keep getting re-opened with all the running. I have had them for about two weeks. They appear to have gotten deeper and there is a white ring around them. Can anyone tell me what this means?

i was doing athletics yesterday, and i was trying to get my urdles technique right, but i hit the hurlde with one knee and scraped the other one hard on the ground. this was on an athletics track, so it was hard, sandy, and dirty. i got a big scrape on my knee, but instead of going to first aid i just washed it off in the toilets. last night it began hurting quite badly, so my mum washed it for me, and i t was dirty again this morning, so i washed it again, but it is still very sore to move, and hard to walk, so i limp. should this be happening? what can i do?

Hey guys, I could use some house hold soultions if any of you can help. Thanks. My problem is my neck is swollen and my neck is out of alignment. Now I can't really do anything about it until I can get the swelling to go down. Problem is, ice is really working well so I am looking for something to supplement it. Due to other health issues I can't take Ib profin or any other drug that is a blood thinner. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

if you sat on your ankle until it falls asleep and walk on it could it break, could it get amputated if you sat on long enough?

I stepped off my stairs and onto a piece of glass as I turned. It stuck into the ball of my foot (right at the bottom of my big toe). I got a big piece out and couldnt see more but even with a bandage and socks on I still feel a pinch, not a "got a cut" pinch but "is there something in there?" pinch. I dont want to make the wound bigger but I dont want to leave a piece of glass in there-if there is one. How can I tell without re-opening the wound? Any ideas?

My girlfriend is very happy girl.She likes joy.She catched a medium-size alive grasshoper in the field.That grasshoper was happily jumping aroumd the field.We observed him.Immediately she told me:"look,what I will do now" and she put the grasshoper into her mouth, closed her mouth very slowly and swallowed the grasshoper alive and harmlessly.She put her hand on the buttom of her throat and it was gone . . . the grasshoper slided down her throat.She smiled and opened her mouth, it was empty.Then she put her hand on her tummy and told me with a smile that grasshoper is now here.Then she told me not to worry because she would easily digest it but I am afraid, isn't it dangerous?Will she really easily digest him?And second question; I also feel sorry for poor grasshoper she will die in a few minutes and should ask her to vomit him?She told me that if I will ask she will vomit him but I don't know what to do. 5-7 minutes passed after it so please explain and suggest something quickly please
