My son (he is 19) had his tonsils out last friday and he was given ammoxcillin, ibrufen and paracetamol and codeine 8/500..he has finished the courses of ammoxcillin and ibrufen but will still be on the paracetamol and codeine, he has been told to rest for two weeks and avoid large crowds for 10 days..But he has been invited to a halloween party on the 31st and wants to drink alcohol, is it safe on this medicine I dont think he wants to get plastered just enough to enjoy himself..He is 19 yrs old

Here's the jist: I've gotten my other 4 tattoos from the same guy. Always uses sterile equipment. Well, a couple days ago I had another piece of work done, this one from just below my armpit to just below my pantline. There is just a little bit of yellow-ish colouring to my skin on the top to the side and in the middle of the tattoo. I've looked online and I don't show any signs of infection -- redness, streaks, puss, doesn't hurt to touch (I work a factory job and went to work the same day with no problem), etc -- but judging from my other four, I can tell this is probably not normal (lol) ... any hints?

Hi, I've been having gassiness problems for over a year now.
I've never counted, but it occurs more than 3 times every 5 minutes.
I've tried Beano, lactase, gasx, and acidophilus, with little to no results. After eating the acidophilus for 3 days, I've ended up with more gas the next day. I eat a little bit of wheat and sugar, and thats it. The pelvic area of my body is always aching, and during the night I have a strange feeling: I have the feeling I am passing gas, when I am not. My body makes weird noises during the night. I get the feeling near the rectum area, but no gas passes. I usually have less gas later in the day, but from I wake up to another couple hours, I have more than 3 passes per 5 minutes. What are all the possibilites? I've been to a clinic, and I've been referred to a GI specialist, but I didn't go (I dont like taking x-rays and have tests unless absolutely necessary)

I don't look too fat, but its just that the weight....I could never figure out why it was so high! My friends say that it is muscle, but I think they are just being good friends. I know its kinda hard to make a decision on that info, but didn't really want to provide a photo. Thanks for any replies!

I have read some answers given about why cold sores form and understand it is viral and possibly brought on by stress and diet and temperatures.... My question is this: If they are viral will the fluid excreted from a cold make you sick?

I'm 17 year olds, but am in dire need of all the vitamins Centrum (from A to Zinc) has to offer.However, the label says adults only, keep away from children. Can I, as a 17 year old teen take it as well? Would there be any negative affects?

I requested my Dr. mail me my medical records. The office sent me a consent form to sign & are asking me to pay $50.00 for handling copying and mailing fees. I believe per the new HIPAA guidelines that these records are mine. Why should I pay a fee?

This is the one prescribed for me whenever I have severe colds. I can not take any other one such as Tylenol since my doctor says they interfere with other medications i take.

I almost always feel cold. the rest of my family will be prefectly comfterable, and i will be bundled up shivering. im shivering right now, in jeans and a thick hoodie. theyre not normal consistant shivers either, they're spastic and choppy, last two or three seconds each, and radiate from my spine. theyre really hard shivers, not just little light ones. people can see me shaking i'm cold before almost everyone else is, i've only not been uncomfterably chilly once this week.

Can someone please help me with this, because the one solution i've found isnt going to be useable, because its not socially acceptable, and im tired of shivering.
