I feel more aware of things and think deeper when I smoke, but how does it kill nerve cells in your brain? why does it do this?

Will you be less able to use your brain (less intelligent) if you smoke reguraly?

I'm a girl...I'm 13...and I'm just about 5 feet 2 inches. Nobody says i'm short but i felt really uncomfortable over the last couple of months with my height. This is probably because most people seem to have grown a lot over the last two or three months. Like this guy who's locker is next to mine: he was my height before we broke up for the summer and now he's about 5 feet 5. I really don't feel like I've grown in years. Please help me grow taller... (by the way, both my parents are like 5ft 2 and 5ft 4 so genes aren't on my side).

Why is it that we really don't taste anything unless we inhale or exhale from our nose at the same time?

I never thought about it until today and it's a little weird. If you plug your nose or don't breathe, whatever in your mouth will have little or no taste at all.

What really makes us "taste" then? Does our tongue just transmit signals to our nose-area to represent taste? Why must we breathe in order to taste?

If you maintain a healthy weight? I was 13 when I was bulimic, and my weight fluctuated beetween 8 1/2 stone and 9 stone, what I did was binge then purge constantly, loosing then gaining weoght like a yo-yo, but I was never underweight. Have I stunted my growth?

I've never worn glasses. About 4 months ago I woke up and had a hard time seeing things the way I used to. It's like the image that the left eye is seeing and the image that the right eye is seeing don't line up with eachother to form one single image. It feels like I'm seeing 1 1/4 of the images. I had an eye exam done and I was told I had 20/20 vision and that there were a couple of things that were off that could impact my vision slightly, but that I really didn't need glasses.

The place I really see the worst effect is with a viewmaster. The images are overlapping eachother incorrectly. I went to take an eye exam at the DMV and the testing machine was very much like a view master and I really struggled. Any ideas? I'm having trouble with 3D movies too. Nothing is blurry..it's just overlapped images.

Hey guys,

For the past couple/few months, my left eardrum sporadically beats for a short period of time, stops, beats again, stops, and does it a few more times. It's almost as if my eardrum is having a spasm. My ear doesn't hurt - the drum just beats. Sometimes it wont beat for three days, sometimes I can't get it to stop beating. It has grown to be really irritating, but I've just lived with it. I don't think I have an ear infection, but do any of you know if something might be wrong? I didn't think so, but I'd rather ask. Thanks!

I started feeling lightheaded Tuesday and on a 1-10 scale it was about a 3. It was about the same on Wednesday. Then on Thursday, I would rate it as about a 6 or 7 and then it has been like a 3-4 since. I have no idea what to do. I have been lying down and drinking a lot of fluids. I have had a sinus infection before and I was very lightheaded from that, but the thing is, I am don't have a congested nose or any other symptoms. I am 16 years old. I don't really know what I should do.

My neice is turning five and has had ear tubes in for a little over 1 year. She is now saying that her ears hurt and there is clear fluid coming out of her ears (like a runny nose). She's had a fever off and on since yesterday. Could she still get an ear infection? Since it's Saturday, do we take her to urgent care, or wait until Monday and take her to her pediatrician?
