Since the beginning of the year I have had a sore throat, glands keep going up and down, furry tongue, what look like blood blisters in the roof of my mouth and throat, ulcers and generally feel very unwell. I have been to the hospital after my GP had tried, mouthwashes, drops, anti-biotics etc but all the hospital have said is to try Difflam (mouthwash) and go back in September, I pointed out that this has been going on since early February and that I have tried mouthwashes that my GP prescribed but I don’t think the consultant was actually listening. (I have also tried a few alternative therapies but nothing is helping as of yet)
Any sensible thoughts on what is going on would be great, many thanks

Why do smokers crave a cigarette after eating?
Why do smokers crave a cigarette while drinking alcohol?

My son is now 5 yrs old. From 2nd year of his age he is constipated almost regularly. We consult our house physician and give him high fiber diet and various fruit but he is still unable to digest milk. When he constipated my wife insert two piece of batel leaf stalk with hot musterd oil in his rectum and this process is still continuing. Another problem is from early stage of potty training my wife used her feet to sit him on top as potty and he is not trained so far. My wife tried several time to sit him on asian style latrine (we have this type only) but he stands up every time and he gets more constipated and he continue to sit on his mother's feet for potty. Please advise us how can we train him at this point!
