I recently had my period and had what I thought were just normal cramps. After it was over I noticed a little blood on the toilet paper from my stool. I ignored it at first but then it happened again today and I have had severe stomach cramps to the point of making me sick to my stomach but not throwing up. The blood is a bright red color and it doesnt seem to be helping when I eat to alleviate the stomach problem. Also the stool hurts when I go. Any thoughts on what this may be??

I don't clean out my ears very often (i dont even remeber the last time i did) and i was wondering if the build-up of wax in the ears can cause hearing damage or even deafness. I always assumed the body had automated ways of keeping the ears clean.

My bf and I haven't been intimate in like two weeks! He only comes on the weekends but he doesn't come onto me and seem to want to do it? We've only been together for 6 months, so it's not like we've been together for years and only do it once in awhile, I need it and it is frustrating me!? I've mentioned this a couple times, but he hasn't changed anything, whats up???

Please tell me the strangest and the simplest. What worked and what didn't.

And if you want to go off topic a little to other kinds of home remedies, that's fine too!!

I kinda have a weird medical question but need advice considering money is tight for a doctor visit. Here is the situation: When I wake in the morning I have a flat tummy. I eat a small dinner tight night before about 4 hours before bed ( i don't eat before bed b/c of the slow metabolism). Last night was a bowl of Ramen noodles and a slice of bread. Next day: nothing for breakfast (if i ask breakfast it makes me noxious all day) by the time lunch came at noon I had a hamburger from sonic and only ate half of it. Now my stomach is swollen to the size of a small beach ball. I know i'm not pregnant (just finished my period) and it's nothing to do with constipation (took medicine for that) so what's wrong? Gas? or something more serious? This only started about a week ago!!!

i know the first thing is DUH it's gas - but for my stomach to swell so quickly? This has just nevered happened before my mo in -law (before she passed) got a swollen stomach after meals b/c her kidneys shut down.

and I lost 12lbs so far, I'm not eating meat but seafood,I'm not eating bread either, and I'm using a food scale as well...Drink tons of water,so I decided to count the calories that I'm eating and I found out I'm eating about only 800 calories a day, BUT I feel extremelly satiesfied with the food I eat.
For example today for Lunch I eat a yummy veggie wrap, I fixed myself.


*low carb wrap 90 cal
* 1 Slice of Provolone cheese 0.65 oz 68 cal
*Pickles 1.30oz 10 Cal
*Iceberg lettuce 1.60 oz 6 cal
*Tomato 3.15oz 16 cal
*White Mushrooms 1.10oz 7 cal
*Green bell Pepper 0.75oz 4 cal

= 201 calories only, and it's so huge and yummy!
Why I feel so full when in fact I'm eating so lil of food?

Lets assume a generally healthy person who exercises regularly that caught a common cold. I've heard so much conflicting advice on this that I don't know what to think.

Some people talk about the above the neck / below the neck thing. How about this? If the cold is in your head then go ahead but if its in your chest then take a rest (just made up the rhyme)

I'm generally too stubborn to stop (though I do slow down a bit) and while I feel OK while doing the exercise I almost always feel bad the next day (though I can't tell if I would feel like that anyway)

What about saunas or hot baths?

your thoughts?
