If a medicine says don't take with alcohol, what does that really mean. Don't wash it down with alcohol? How long after taking a medicine is it safe to drink? Also, if a medicine doesn't have that warning label on it, would it be okay to drink the next day after taking it?

I read this question about the activities included in drug treatment programs and the best answer chosen stated that patients are given whirlpool baths during the duration of the program. Are whirlpool baths really necessary? What are they for anyway?

I'm an alcoholic (there, I've admitted it) and I've been like this for years. I really don't care what other people say because I like to drink. Lately, I've had this realization that maybe I need some help in order to become sober. My little girl is growing up so fast and I just realized that I can't let her have a drunkard for a father. Please help me.

I admit, I have sensitive ears to certain sounds. One of them being the bass sound in a car turned way up. It literally hurts and I can't stand it! Does anyone else have this happen? What can I do about it?

My big brother is addicted to cocaine. I've read some stuff about it and I think it's time to intervene with his addiction. I just want to know if the results of intervention are always the same. I mean, if I perform an intervention, will he be okay right away?

Wow, what a pain in the butt! My feet get so hot at night that I can't sleep without a fan blowing directly on them. As a kid, this happened only when I was ill or when it was really hot (summertime). Now it's every night. They don't burn or hurt, but the bottoms of my feet get bright red and they're so unbearably hot I can't stand it. Does this sound familiar to anyone? And if so, what do you do about it? I've asked my doctor, but he laughed it off and said my feet looked fine to him. I felt really stupid for asking and I haven't brought it up since. Also, the only thing I've found online is advice to scrub down my feet every night, buff them down with pumice, and moisturize them. Aside from making my feet more attractive, it hasn't helped at all;) At this point, I'm ready to do almost anything!

My text book says "Nasal cannula (prongs) are positioned so they curve towards the nares and oxygen is directed upward into the nose."

I don't know if that means the prongs curve towards the body or away from the body. Which way is the "correct" direction to have the prongs curving? Curving towards or away from the body?

I have a prac exam on Tuesday, so won't have time to ask the tutor again before then.

Thank you for your help.

A vagina is just supposed to look like a slight indent or slit from the front right? Mine doesn't.

Drinking water doesn't work right? Because it is fat-soluble.

In the past year and a half I have been giving off a pretty strong odor on most days (i don't know why not everyday or vice versa). I am also not overweight (I'm 16 yrs, 5'11, 145 lbs). I usually smell fine after I take my showers (2 a day), but once I put my deodorant on (i use the stick now, last year I used spray), a little later I start to smell pretty bad. I wasn't able to smell it last school year but I can tell when I smell bad this year.
My diet hasn't changed durastically either. I just want to know if there is any way I can help this problem. I cannot last like this anymore in my life, I feel like I've tried everything.

I do have a doctor's appointment next friday, but I feel embarrassed if I were to ask my doctor what I should do about my body odor.

etc. She also has a cold. She has had the cold for 4 days now and just got the rash this morning.

I've been trying to get over my cold and nasty cough. I noticed now that when I cough, mucus or whatever keeps on trying to come out but I just can't seem to spit it out. Is it boogers/mucus? I know it sounds gross but since I can't spit it out, I just end up swallowing it. Does it go down to my stomach and get filtered out or does it go to my lungs and gets tangled up in there? Also, is there any way to not have all these mucus/boogers wanting to come out whenever I have a bad cough again? Any information will help.
Thanks in advance!
