I have a cold, and the skin around my nose gets dry and cracked from blowing it so much. I've used facial moisturizer, but it kinda burns. I've used cocoa butter lotion, but that burns as well. I've used petroleum jelly, but was told that that blocks pores.

Does anyone have a solution that won't burn or clog my pores?

Ok, here's the thing...I like to have a half bottle of red wine about 4 nights a week (sometimes 5 or 6)...after work to relax and de-stress. But, I make a point to go at least one night without alcohol (and often more than that). Is this a concern mentally or physically for me?

I haven’t been sleeping right, eating right, or drinking right. Some days I don’t eat or drink at all. Monday, my leg collapsed. I’ve been trying to take better care of myself. But I have long hours at school, I go to college. I don’t have much time to eat or drink. But now I try to eat at least two meals a day.

Now, I have headaches all the time and I feel so sick. In the evenings, I feel like throwing up and I get dizzy when I sit up. I feel so hot all the time, but I don’t have a fever, but when I turn on the fan I get too cold. Yesterday, when I was just sitting down, I got intense pain from my shoulder for no reason. It went away in like an hour.

I’m 21. Any ideas what I can do? And is this all because of not eating, drinking, and sleeping? If so, why is it that now that I take better care of myself it seems to be getting worse?

Just come out of hospital after a minor op which went well.

Whilst in there, it suddenly struck me as to why the drip feed bottles are not exactly rectangular but have what I can only describe as a 'kink' in the middle? After all, the bottles are upside down and the liquid transfers to your body by gravity so I cannot see that the 'kink' would improve the flow rate. It is possible that the kink is there for storage of the bottles but I don't understand the benefit - if any!

My ears itch like something tickling them from the inside, and my mom asked me if my equilibrium is off and it is, like I'm drunk, I'll just tip over sometimes. As funny as that sounds, I know you're laughing, I would be too, does anyone know anything about what causes this or something I can do about it?

Lately I've been really hungry, and very tired aswell. At first I attributed it to having to travel more in the past 2 months, but I wouldn't have thought it'd have side-effects to this amount.


It's not puberty, I'm not overweight or putting on weight and I'm not pregnant; my apetite usually increases when ovulating, but not this much. It feels like quasibinge-eating.


I'm going to the doctors next Tuesday, but I'm really worried I could have something like diabetes. Anybody able to shed some light?

....you lose your sense of taste while you have a cold, you can sometimes taste for the short while you are blowing your nose?

I have an eye infection, I assume it was from my contacts. I took eye drops from the pharmacy that didn't work. I went to the doctor and got different eye drops, but the ingredients are pretty much the same; the same active antibiotic. My eye is getting redder and doesn't seem to be opening as wide as the other (possiblly swollen) what should I do??

This year I find that I'm having nose bleeds often and at first it was freaking me out then my teacher told be it's good for me because it releases blood pressure. Is it bleeding because I'm stressed or is something wrong with me. I don't lose cups of blood but it still worrys me. Sometimes even when I sneeze hard or just when I'm just not doing anything, watching TV or something like that.

Okay, so I was losing my voice due to a cold since yesterday! i've seen doctor and already took medicine on time. i've tried everything like gargling with salt water and drinking lemon tea with honey. They didn't seem to help.

Today, it got even worse! i can't talk at all. i can only whisper in a very low tune. that's so horrible! I need my voice back quickly! i have to go to work today! OMG!

Okay, i'm trying to talk now... "Good morning!", oh can't say it out! I lost my voice i mean really lost it. OMG! this is going to kill me!
I mean i have to talk..

Pls help! any remedies? anything that works?

I have pain in my lower back, its worse when i relex i.e. in a chair and then have to get up again. Walking is ok once i get started, banding or twisting hurts.
ironically, sitting with my leg under my bum actually helps
now the pain has largely moved into my right hip, at the front, like a sharp stabbing pain

im dosing up on painkillers but obviously thatisnt a long term solution

any ideas what i can do to releive it?

i've not gone to the docs cos i'll jus tbe told to loose weight which i am doing slowly and surely but ive suffered on and off with my back since i was 16 when i was just a uk sixe 10 so its not jsut my weight

I want to know if there's anything you can do to "fix" your eyes if you have an astigmatism, or is it something you have to live with forever??
