I'm a healthy 22 female. About 2 years ago it started - every 6 or so months I would get very swollen salivary glands. First time I had to go to the emergency room and got antibiotics for what they said was an infection then it happened 6 months later, worse this time and the same again had antibiotics. Then it happened again so i went straight to my GP & he said I'd have an ultrasound to check for stones - so I waited for ages, had that then i received a letter saying results normal and no stones present. That was a few months ago.

I just want someones advice about this please. If I was honest - my glands can be normal one day then full the next and it looks like ive gained 2 stone then the next day people can honestly make a remark "have u lost weight"?.

I dont know whats wrong - what should i do?

Thank u so much x

everyone always says you need your rest, but when you exercise doesnt that get lymph moving through your body or something? and you sweat, which removes impurities from your body, and you get vitamin d if youre in the sun.

and this may sound like a really stupid question to all you people who know a lot about this kind of stuff, but i just dont.

About a week ago I waxed my upper lip with wax strips that warm between your fingers. Usually they work fine, but I think I over-waxed or got too close to my lip and it became tender and a bunch of red bumps developed in the corner of my mouth. The sores scabbed a little, but keep cracking open when I eat or talk. Also, I have two dark spots (maybe dry skin or scarring?) that appeared on the waxing site a few days later... I'm in worse shape now than I was before I waxed! I have tried Neosporin, A&D ointment, and Campho-Phenique, mostly for the pain, but I don't see much improvement I just want these ugly things to heal faster and not leave scars. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've been in and out of the bathroom four times, when I close my eyes I feel like I"m spinning, when I lay down I can feel what I've eaten today crawling back up my throat and I have to keep swallowing. it's not coming into my mouth but it feels like it could. what could these be symptoms of? I had a lot of mt dew before bed, could that be it? no kind of drugs or alcohol.

I just recently got this cough and it hurts my chest and the back of my throat horribly. I want to get rid of the cough as fast as possible, because it effects my work tremendously and hurts severely. I would like a natural way if possible but the fastest would be the best.

So, me and my cousin who is five years older then me (I'm 14 now she's 19) are walking in a forest behind her house. We are both younger she's ten and I'm like five. We come to a tree house and she makes me go up into it and give him cookies. I dont want to go and she wants to go with me but she cant or she'll get in trouble. I go up and I give the man the cookies, but I never see his face. And then the dream ends. What does it mean?

how much do you trust that they really know what they're talking about? it seems like a legitimate question considering they may have our lives in their hands! most people seem to trust them without question :/

So, my legs (calve area I guess) hurt when I walk for more then 10-15 minutes. They ache. I haven't walked AT ALL during Summer, so could that be the problem?
I've also been eating a lot of junk food and not drinking enough water.

...I'm 20 years old (so i don't think it is something to do with age)
If I start eating healthier and only drinking water (and lots of it) will my mucsles feel better?

My high school is having a school wide blood drive in a couple of weeks. I just turned seventeen so am old enough to give blood and I weigh enough, but I am terrified of needles. I feel bad not giving because it is for a good cause and there are a lot of people that want to donate that are unable to. I was just wondering if someone could explain how the process works, if it hurts, how much it hurts and how to get over my fear. Thanks in advance.

sense i was in sixth grade (i am a junior in high school now) i have been having frequent nose bleeds, multiple times a year, in no particular season (so i do no think it is allergies) that last sometimes as long as an hour and a half. i have seen docters about this, but all they do is wait till it stops and send me home. tonight i have another one, pretty severe, constant bleeding, so far it has been thirty minutes. it commonly happens when I am in high stress situations, but I do not think this is a normal thing that should happen...Has anyone experianced this or knows what I should do? Please do not just suggest a docter, because I have done so and no help. But if you know why this is happening and what I can do, other than wait it out, much appreciation. Thankyou.
