Hi guys, I'm 99% sure that I sprained my ankle yesterday morning. It didn't notice the swelling until a little while later so I didn't 'RICE' it for about 4-5 hours after the injury. Although I didn't walk on it very much either. It was feeling okay all evening (I continued to use RICE) but now approx, 20 hours after the incident it feels just horrible. Does chronic pain tend to follow after a 1 to 2 mild sprain or should I be worried? Thanks :)

k i literally can't bite down at all no teeth make contact or come close. he put a metal attachment onto the inside of one of my top front teeth so that i wouldn't bite the brackets off. the problem is that i cannot eat anything at all. so i can only have liquids for half a year until my teeth touch...FUCK THAT!!!! and there is noway to get around it it's not like i can just eat soft foods because my teeth won't close it just hits the shelf and it hurts like hell. i can't chew with my front teeth because they're so tensed together, because of the braces, that if i just gently push down on one front tooth itll hurt every tooth in my mouth (cept the molars). also the shelf is only on one tooth and only makes contact with one tooth both of which are very very sensitive teeth. so all my bite power hits 1 tooth against metal and sometimes i forget about it and try to bit down fully which hurts like a mothaf%$ker. i also tend to knee myself in the chin alot (havnt yet so far) but if i hit my chin those teeth are gonna be knocked out like nothing. oh also when i say that i can't eat anything but liquids (drinking) this is not an exaggeration, i can't eat anything whatsoever.

Mine is 140/83. I also have almost all the symptoms of hypertention due to the coarctation of the aorta (dizziness, fatique, shortness of breath, irritability, muscle weakness, increased sweating, cold feet, sometimes chest pain, ect) Is that HBP? and is it possible that i have Hypertention?! thanks :) I'm not looking for any 'Go to the doctor' type answers. If i wanted those answers, i'd just go to the doctor!! I just want opinions, to see if it's worth wasting 2 hours in a waiting room, and wasting so much of my doctors time! Thank you

My girlfriend says she was taught at "cooking school" that because it kills non-harmful skin flora along with the viruses and bacteria, hand sanitizer is in fact bad for you in that it decreases your skin's ability to repel the bad bugs. I think this sounds like BS, as it flies in the face of everything we've been hearing from the medical community for years. Anyone care to weigh in?

And no he doesn't have a chode. :p So here is the story. He tried one of those coloured life styles condoms and it was so tight!! Like unbelievably tight. And it wouldn't even go down all the way!!! He said he was in pain so we had to take it off (no sex for me! :( .. haha) The next day he bought some durex condoms that were supposedly wider (I'm not sure what they are called but they were in a purple package.) We tried using them but it was too long or something. There was about an inch-and-a-half just hanging off the tip but we couldn't pull it down cause it got really tight at the base. I've looked on the internet and Trojan Magnums seem like the best choice. I read somewhere that the length doesn't matter as much as the width. My only worry is that if I buy those they might be too long. When erect he is about 5 1/2 inches around the shaft and about 8 1/2 - 9 inches long. Also, there is a slight curve partway up his penis, could this be affecting anything? I'm just confused as to his size. Will magnums be too long?

I'm 14 and I was just wondering if there are any signs that your growth spurts from puberty are going to start. I'm not too tall and not too broad either.

I am a female patient(44) & I have been advised to increase my sodium and water intake. My body cannot seem to regulate my thyroid levels-sometimes too high, other times too low but I take my medications regularly and as directed and my levels are checked regularly, more often lately. I suffer from long-term depression and regular panic attacks. I've attempted suicide multiple times from my mental issues. I have difficulty walking for very long & cardiovascular exercise activities are out of the question as I usually pass out after less than 5 minutes. I occasionally suffer from sudden numbness in multiple areas of my body and sometimes my face although mostly in my upper & lower limbs(not tingling-just numbness). The feeling returns as suddenly as it left. I often have Migraine headaches. My eyes are very light sensitive and I am completely night blind. I was also diagnosed with IBS. Great eh? I quit smoking more than 3 yrs. ago(never smoked more than 1/2 pack a day and only smoked on & off since my mid-teens. I never smoked while pregnant and then not around my kids when I started again-inside or outside of a house or a car.)I rarely drink alcohol (cannot remember the last time) and I never do street drugs. I have even developed mild Asthma. I am about 60-70 lbs. overweight now but I cannot lose it with only diet changes. I was almost 25 lbs. heavier but this was all that I could lose through diet and portion sizing. I was never that big of an eater through most of my life and I ate healthy most of the time. I was a size 4 or 6 before my two children were born and then from that point on I was at most a size 8. My weight might fluctuate between 125 to 135 lbs. I was 5'6" but I have shrunk approximately 1/2" since my late 20's. The weight gain I have now came about very rapidly (less than 6 months), but was NOT from over-eating OR from a poor diet OR from lack of exercise. I worked at a very stressful job which I suspect may have contributed to my latest thyroid problems as well as my depression and anxiety issues but I cannot be certain however I have been on long-term disability for more than 2 years. I see a Psychiatrist and a Therapist regularly for my Mental issues. I've been to a Cardiologist-hence the MVP diagnosis (because of BP. changes.). I've seen an Internist for Thyroid and other medical issues. Was told that they could not help me because there is more than Thyroid issues happening within me. I thought that this was the type of Doctor who COULD get me the correct diagnosis or at least guide me in the right direction? I have had numerous blood tests, a couple of Cat Scans and X-rays and Probes and Scopes to try to get a diagnosis. I feel like I am losing my mind in addition to bodily malfunctions. I saw a Neurologist very early on but an MRI; in addition with other tests were inconclusive. I fear that I may lose my Family because of all of these issues. I feel like a hypochondriac and have been accused as such from those who shouldn't be judging me but instead should be supporting me(at least that is what my Therapist believes as do I). I have gotten to the point that I no longer talk medical issues with my family or friends because it is too painful emotionally plus I find that it usually brings on a panic attack and those are not pleasant to experience. I cry and suffer in silence now as I fear that everyone, including my Doctors have given up on me. I don't want to give up on myself but I am unsure how long I will continue to feel this way. I try to search for answers myself but since I am not a doctor, I will not self-diagnose but whenever I bring up a suggestion or possibility that MAY be related to some if not all of my symptoms, the Doctor/s don't listen or even take the time to briefly explain why it is not possible. I fear that I am grasping for any hope and I don't even care if the final diagnosis is not a good one. I just need to prove to myself AND to others that I am not crazy in regards to my physical ailments. I am hoping that some kind and caring medical professional will see this and might know what it is or might be before I truly give up and then it won't matter anymore. Please help me if you are seriously able to?
