Help! The glue of our family is suffering from hearing loss and everyone is always shouting now. We need help! I know that the obvious answer is a hearing aid, but they are very expensive and I am almost positive that there is an old wives tale out there somewhere that might actually work. Can anybody out there help us?

Doctor said my 5 years old daughter has enlarge tonsils and adenoid. They suggest me to have her remove her tonsils, but somehow, from what I read from the internet, it says that tonsil can shrink by itself and are known as a protectection from bacteria from entering the mouth, it is better not to remove tonsils until at least the child is 12 years old. I`m confuse wheteher to listen to the doctor or believe what I read. Somebody pls advise.

My daughter has not much problem, only that she cannot pronounces nasal letters like M/N properly, and she like to breath by her mouth when sleeping at night but not once that she sleeps snoring.

I've been on hydrocodine for about a week now because of a wisdom tooth extraction. I haven't had a bowl movement since I started taking it. Is the medicine keeping me from going or is there some other problem? And also, what can I do to end this pain in my stomach that I can't release?

Okay, I know this sounds weird, but here it goes. My husband has told me that lately everything smells like onions to him. Go ahead and laugh if you want, but he's dead serious. He showers every day if not twice a day because he works out. From his pits, to other people, to even the gas station, and he's now to the point where I can't even cook with him because it makes him nauseas.

This is a serious question and I really hope you answer seriously. If you feel like putting joke answers or comments, please bug someone else with your adolescent behavior.

Thank you.

I've had my spleen out for 23 years now, and recently I feel pain under my left side ribs. I know it's not my spleen, so could it be a phantom pain this late in life, or another organ?

I am 39 weeks pregnant with what I believe is a Staph infection underneath my armpit. It started out as like a bump under my skin that felt like there was fluid in it. So of course being completely brilliant like I am(hmmm) I decided to try to pop it b/c it hurt so bad. When I went to pop it; it did just that but underneath my skin. Midnight that night I woke up with a horrible fever and sever pain under my arm and down my side and back. Went to the doc and he put me on anti-biotics...does anyone know what I can do to relieve the pain until the meds start to work? I can't even pick anything up with my left arm. Please help!! Thank you!

I am a adult. I take a bath every night and shave my armpits every other night. What's weird is that nothing works on my right side, yet I have no problems on my left side.
The crystal deodorant is a joke. I have tried mens, womens, and sport formula with very little success. I always try to get a deodorant with the highest concentration of the active ingredient, I am using a baking soda formula now that works about half the day before I have to reapply. I'm worried what I will do when it quits working entirely.
No one has told me I stink yet. However, at night when I change clothes I know my deodorant quit working a while back. I'm self-conscious about this and would appreciate any serious help.
