In the last couple months one side of my tongue has swelled and after 3 to 4 hours it goes down. This has happened 3 times, never always the same side. Also yesterday the right side of my upper lip swelled. I think it has something to do with allergies but I am unable to find a common reason why.

I have pinched nerve from what I can tell it is my femoral nerve. I have been losing strength in my thigh muscle to the point if I bend my knee with too much wieght on my right side I go down like brick. I've taken muscle relaxers, put ice on it, and have taken probably more motrin than i should have and still can't releive the pain. I haven't seen the doctor yet. I'm trying to exhaust every treatment I can think of before I go. I will most likely go friday if i can't heal it myself. If someone has any other advice please let me know. If you are in the medical field and say go to the Doc that is cool too.

I was never immunized as a child. I decided to get them done now. I just had Hepatitis A, Hepatitis B, Tetanus, Polio, Meningitis, and MMR. They used both arms, thank goodness, but now both arms hurt soooooooo bad. What can I do to relieve the pain? I also have to go back for second and third doses of these. I don't know how I can suffer through this again!!!

I'm 22, I was never immunized in childhood and decided to start now. Boy was that dumb. They gave me a hepatitis A, hepatitis B, tetanus, MMR, polio, and meningitis. All at once. Thank goodness they used both arms but they both hurt soooooooo bad. What is best to relieve this massive pain? And then they said I have to go back for more. Second and third doses of these. I don't know if I can do that again!

It's a well-known fact amoung healthcare providers that water equals better health & carbonated water in soda pop destroys calcium in your body..so that's not urban legend; & when I learned that...I stopped drinking the tasty stuff...that was 9 years ago. I replaced my consumption of it with pure springwater & have been in better health since.

Many of my coworkers take smoke breaks even when they're sick - cold, flu, bronchitis, asthma - and it baffles me. Why do smokers do this?

Where does the dirt go when you use a liquid hand sanitizer instead of washing with soap and water. I've always wondered this.

For example, if you've been sick for a week, you aren't going to get others sick. You only were able to infect people the first day or so. Is this true?

When dining, is it better to drink hot water or cold water? Personally, I don't think it really matters because water is water.
Healthwise, though, is hot water ideal when eating?
Thanks!

I used to think that cleaning glasses with windex was a good idea. I was told that the ammonia in windex can actually take out some of the glass protection and other features such as the transition effect.

I am self employed, and one of my jobs is working 3 hours a week ( 9.30-11am Mondays and 9.30-11am Wednesdays) for council Adult Education Service. I have been ill the past two weeks and they are requesting a sick note. I understand that this is necessary after 7 days continuous abscence, but does this still apply when I don't work for them in that way? i.e not everyday. I've been/am genuinley sick, so will get a note if I have too, but I resent taking up the Drs valuable time, when the only thing for my illness is painkillers and rest (have flu)

I am getting the flu. I have a headache, chills, and feel very weak. I have to go to work today anyway. I can't afford to take off and if I don't go in , there isn't anyone to fill in because we are shorthanded in my department. There isn't anyone else in the store trained to work in the department rich requires performing alot of tasks and using different office machines and stuff. I have to work an 8 hour shift with any early lunch an hour after I get there (too early and ridiculous but there isn't anyone to cover the area after that) so I will be working 7 hours nonstop and dealing with alot of people (it gets busy). I am off tomorrow and can rest some but I have to get through today and I just don't want to feel worse. We have spy shoppers in our store regularly and if we dont ask everyone certain questions and smile and all, we get written up and in trouble. One of my coworkers got in trouble last week because she answered the store phone while checking someone out.

I'm sick and I was up all night with terrible nausea. I have a class in an hour and a half that I can't miss, so I want to have something caffeinated to perk me up. I know you're supposed to drink clear liquids, but is Diet Pepsi going to make me sicker?
