I got my nose pierced at the end of December. I ended up getting a sinus infection a week later! Since then I have have this red bump on and off surrounding my nose piercing. I tried Aspirin but the piercing ended up falling through my nose. Tea Tree Oil seems to work well. I was wondering if anyone had any other suggestions? Let me know.

My little one spiked a quick fever w/ no other symptoms. It got up to 101.5 w/ ear thermometer. It took over an hour for the infant advil to bring her fever down and three hours later, it's back up. She's been exposed to a bunch of kids w/ strep throat, BUT she has no presenting symptoms, and it was over a week ago that she was exposed. She's never been sick before, and I'm not a panicy mom, I have three other kids, but just curious as to what others thought. 101.5 is not a super high fever, but I am a little worried. thoughts?? Thanks in advance and God bless.

Sometimes I wake myself up moaning...occasionally I'll wake up talking, but the majority of the time it's moaning. I'm not having any sex dreams or anything. This is embarrassing!

I turn 17 this May, and I am 188 cm tall (6'2''). Now, I was wondering whether I will grow any taller or not. I think boys grow right into their twenties?? This is really TALL here in India, but I still want to be something like 6'4'' or 6'5''.

There are / were just three more people in my family who are over 6' tall.
Paternal grandpa was 6'3''
Maternal grandpa is 6'1''
One of my cousins (22 yrs) is 6'1''

In August of 2005 I started having really awkward symptoms. The first thing I noticed was when my husband and I went swimming and I went to the bottom of the pool my ears burned when I came back to the top. I had never had that happen before. A couple of days later I got an infection in them and was nauseous. This went on to the right side of my face becoming numb from my forehead to my lip, flaring up my acid reflux problem so bad even water bothered me, and pressure in the back of my head. It took the e.r. doctors a month to figure out what was wrong because the symptoms were so random they thought i was just a complainer. This experience freaked me out. I finally got better but now have weird/random aches and pains and still have pressure in my head all the time. Does everyone who gets mono go through this and if so could you give me advice? I have no medical insurance so i can't get tests. I can't even enjoy life anymore. I'm tired all the time and feel weird and i'm only 27 y.o.

My friend desperately needs her tonsils removed. She doesn't have insurance, and has no money to perform the surgery. Luckily, I'm the only one with enough balls to remove them for her. Do you know of any household items that I would use, or even a schematic of tonsils? Any information would be helpful.

Since my time in military service I suffer from hearing disability, not very bad, but enough to be a nagging annoyance in many ways. The saddest thing is the accusation by some people, especially in the family, that I had "selective hearing". It is NOT like that. I frequently face this question: "How come if you don't hear good you still complain if someone is too noisy in the house?"
Indeed, even with a bad hearing, when I want/need to fall asleep, I am annoyed by noises that might be going on in the house, since I'm not totally deaf.
Also, when the circumstances are right and very little background noise is going on, I can hear everything out of a conversation. And this fact is not understood by people with normal hearing....there I face another question: "You just hear what you wanna hear, do you?"
Than again, sometimes I have to ask several times what someone said and those replies can be very hurtful since no one seems to be even willing to understand my problem.
Anyone w/. clues?

I've had neck problems the past few months, and my Dr said its my posture and stuff and im putting strain on my neck muscles. Well, i went to physical therapy, and the pain started to go away, then came back. So the Dr did an X-ray, and my neck and stuff is fine, 100% a-ok. Well, i was at the gym today, and i was usin this machine that works your chest.Your arms are on your sides holdin this bar and you have to pull it to the middle of you using your elbows, your back is against this backrest, and you pinch your shoulder blades together, and do as i said.When i was doin it, my back came off the backrest, and then i guess i started usin my back muscles a little bit, and i felt pressure at the top of my spine, but i got out of the position i was in, and then it was fine.Well, i worked a bit today other than the gym, and i felt super tired afetr the gym, and i really do now, could somethin bad have happened when i felt the pressure? No crack, no pop. Should i stop bein paranoid?Sleep? Lol

I'm a 20 year old college student. For the past few weeks I've been having many aches and pains throughout my body. First it was headaches, then the back of my neck and shoulders ached and now my left arm, shoulders and the backs of my legs ache. When I wake up my left hand tingles like it's "asleep". I went to the emergency room a couple weeks ago when the headaches first occurred because I had a mini panic attack. They did blood work and a cat scan of my head and didn't find anything. I feel normal some days but the past couple days my left arm, upper back and legs ache. I've never really had any pain in my body except headaches before this and now all of the sudden different parts of my body tingle and ache and I just feel tired. I really feel like I need to go to the doctor but I don't have the time nor health insurance. I'm not sure what to do!!! :(.

When I was 13 my family friend came over to visit. to make a long story short, he was much stronger than me although he was the same age as me and started to kiss me and tryied to get me to kiss him back. He was touching my chest and legs and kissing my arms. I was scared but he acted like it wasn't a big deal although i was crying. It still wasn't a big deal to him the next day at school but in a hick town news spreads fast and everyone else thought it was big. I never told my mom because i was scared and i felt like it was partly my fault. I felt like a tramp, like i let him do it even though i said no. i don't like the fact that i think about it everyday and i don't really know what happened to me. PLEASE someone help!
