Is it dangerous to keep your cell phone over your chest/heart?

Question 1
Is it dangerous to keep your cell phone over your chest/heart?...  Serious answers only please! Sometimes I take a short nap with my cell phone on my chest, that way whenever someone texts/calls I can immediately pick up and answer. Would this damage my health in any way?

Answers
1)   I heard it does. - Sara

2)   I don't think that it is proven yet, but there is some risk of cancer I believe. This is long term use though. - pink

3)   It can have long term effects I would keep it away because they say even keeping a cell phone in your pocket can cause problems to your "private areas" and cause cancer.

There is a certain amount of radiation that emits from the phones.. I would just keep it on the bed! - Mark Richards

4)   The possibility is: cellphones cause cancer of whatever part they are closest to most often. So if you carry your cell phone in your pocket all the time, you'll get it in your leg. If you're talking all the time, you'll get it in your head. If you keep if on your chest, then on your chest, etc. Get an earpiece, so that you don't have to keep your phone too close to you. And don't sleep with it on your night stand.

5)   if u r a girl, keep in ur boo.bs,,,


guys, u keep it next to ur poopoo.. - Ric

6)   There are some studies in health magazines that argue it can have an effect. The reason is because a cell phone or an ipod, etc., is a very small object containing a very high amount of energy. Some studies show that any effect it might have is minimal; however, I have read some articles that discuss that keeping a cell phone consistently in your pocket can lead to cysts or hip misalignment and bone density loss.

Here's another article on the subject.

While the effects listed in articles like these may be exacerbated and overblown, it still seems like there is something to be said about consistently having that much energy on your person.

I conducted my own sort of experiment by not having my phone touch me unless I was on it. Whether it was because of the energy level or just the fact that I didn't feel tethered to an object all day, I did feel a little better.

When you're taking a nap, it's YOU time. Try just putting it on silent for your nap if you can. If you can't, just leave it next to you. You'll already have heightened awareness for when it rings because you're conditioned to. So, more than likely you'll hear it go off. - Ashley

Question 2
I think I'm morphing?...  Five days ago, I woke up and I noticed that my arms were like five times hairier and I was craving fish. I accidently ate my pet goldfish and my ears are slowly getting pointier and moving up to the top of my head. My fingernails are getting sharper and I keep getting chased by dogs. What is happening to me?

Question 3
Feels like urinating all the time?...  I feel like going to the toilet all them time today even though ive already been. When I urinate it feels strange like i want to urinate more but the feeling is like its coming from my clitoris. It just feels like your picking your belly button and I dont know what it is. Help please? its only just started today and i dont think its ever happened before.
I'm 14. And also while I was on the toilet this piece of thing? came out? :S I don't know what it was but it was white and like...stringy? but i think it was skin and there was a bit of blood on it... at-least I think it was. It was red?
Btw, how long will it take to go? :S Do i just leave it?

Answers
1)   It really depends on your age. If your a teen going through puberty that might be a change. If your an adult then maybe you might have an infection in your urinary tract assuming you're sexually active. Either case you might want to see your doctor for a check up. - Chu Chu

2)   You could have an UTI (Urinary Tract Infection). It needs to be treated by your doctor. - Kaleidoskopic Romance

3)   An infection can cause this, or irritation can -- it often happens after vigorous sexual intercourse, for instance. You could try the over-the-counter urinary pain/spasm medicines like "Uristat" or whatever similar one your pharmacy has. You can ask the pharmacist or pharmacy tecnician for help finding the right stuff. If it persists and that does not help, especially if it worsens, see a doctor. - jannie

4)   You have a urinary tract infection (UTI). A doctor can cure it. Until you can see the doctor, Azo Standard will take away some of the discomfort, but it will not cure the infection. You must still see a doctor for the infectino. - Frank

5)   You have cystitis ( a water infection ), drink plenty of water or barley water to flush the infection out, if it doesn't get better you will probably need antibiotics from your doctor. - posh scouse

Question 5
im having small type of shivering. is having beer good for removing my shivering?...  

Answers
1)   No, but if you drink enough beer you won't care. - jannie

2)   No Beer will not solve it. You need a hot tub and a good rest. - Chu Chu

3)   Only if you are an alcoholic and you are feeding the 'monkey'! You need to find the answer to why you are shivering. The chances are that your core body temperature is low and you need to warm up or you are possibly diabetic and have low blood sugar, in which case you just need something to eat. - DavidS

4)   Having food would help. When you don't get enough food, your body produces hormones to try to use internal energy stores, and some of these hormones will make you tremble. - Frank
