Im 16, and for some reason, I like picking my scabs. I honestly dont know what I get plesure from ripping a little crusty piece of it off, it doesnt hurt much, and I know Im not a masochist... Well My question is how long does it take for a cut to get a scab over it? I plan on letting it heal now.

I had my Gall bladder removed 3 weeks ago by Laporoscipy (?spelling) and still have a lot of pain at the site where I had a drainage tube inserted. Have others had similar pain and how long has it lasted?

I am currently experiencing the following issues w/ my health and looking for some advise. I do no have health ins.

My Bckgrnd: Im 28, have asthma, no kids. I have chronic sinus problems and loads of allergies.

For the last 2 months I have been coughing up [only when I first wake up] coloured muscus. I am taking vitamins/over-the-counter meds and organic teas. This week the muscus started to be tinged with blood. I feel fairly tired [I get 8 hrs sleep every night].

I have not recieved my period in 5 weeks. Ive taken a pregnancy test yesterday and it came back negative. My body has been cramping for 2/3 weeks and my period keeps feeling likes it going to come but it hasnt yet.

What are the chances I have pneumonia? I am going to a free womens clinic tomorrow to have a pap smear/std testing etc.

Any advice? Im afraid the emergency room is going to cost me hundreds of dollars that I dont have right now?!? Thanks

I have a friend that is on probation (dont ask his wife got into drug trouble and took him down with her) and he has to take pee test sometimes to test clean for alcohol. Well these days they have test that can test if you have had a drink for up to 5 days. Well he has a test coming up and i told him that multivitamins help clean the system out. Does anybody know if this is true? I do know that the more yellow your pee the more diluted it is and its harder to read whats in the urine.........any info would be nice and please dont say stop drinking because obviously thats an option but trying to find a way around it.

my boyfriend and i are deciding whether or not I should spend some money and go on birth control. he's never had sex without a condom, so obviously he doesn't know how much of a difference there is. i want to go on birth control anyway, but I'm just curious what some other males think about this.

Sometimes when I get up, if I have been sitting down for a while, or if I just woke up, I get really dizzy and I black out for a few seconds, my vision just goes dark.

I drink roughly 12 cans of pop a day, and have tried to quit. Every time I cut back or go 'cold turkey' I get terrible headaches. Is there anything (other than pain killers) I can do to redue the severity or the number of headaches I get?

When you are sick with a cold it doesn't make sense calling it a cold. Why did it get called that in the first place?

I've talked in my sleep for a while now(probably a few years). I don't enjoy this, as I usually ramble on for quite a while about random things(I've had a friend tell me that once I was talking about a rollercoaster at a fair months after the state fair). My parents have learned to listen to what I speak about, and they attempt to read in-between the lines. This worries me deeply. I also notice always wake up in a different position than what I went to sleep in. I have no reconcilliation of talking or walking in my sleep. Yet, quite recently, I woke up with a cramp in my leg, and I have awakened to bruises(though I'm not sure if I had gotten them the day before.). As I stated before, I hate talking and possibly walking in my sleep. Walking in my sleep could become potentially dangerous. I would like to know some methods to stop sleep walking and sleep talking.

I know I have thyroid problems...but I'm on meds for that. I am just exhausted all the time. I get at least 8 hours of sleep a night and I try to eat as healthy as possible. I'm a full-time college student, so I stay busy, but I never have energy to do anything. What's wrong with me? What can I do?
