Best ways to get rid of a canker sore?

Question 1
Best ways to get rid of a canker sore?...  I have a canker sore right by my gum and it is very painful...I can't really eat, drink, or even move my mouth a certain direction because it will hurt!! I get canker sores once in a while. Do you know ways that I can get rid of it fast?

Answers
1)   message it or take some medicine i it continues to hurt go to a doctor. - Brandon

2)   Yes, but both these methods sting A LOT. They are, however, extremely effective in getting rid of canker sores:

Salt Water
-after you brush your teeth, put 1-2 teaspoons of coarse salt into a cup
-fill it with water
-swish the water around in your mouth
-spit

Vitamin C
-put a Vitamin C tablet in your mouth
-using your tongue, push it so it presses against your canker sore

If you're afraid of the pain, I suggest the salt water method. It is MUCH less painful than the Vitamin C tablet. I have a high tolerance for pain, but even I had some tears while trying out the Vitamin C method.

Good luck. - Vanessa

3)   Go to the drug store and buy OTC something called amozan. (Sorry I don't if you spell it like that)
Ask the pharmacist since sometime that come when your stomach is upset with to many acid. - Gloria A

4)   You can't get rid of a canker sore, once it's started. It'll just run its course in about 7 days and then disappear on its own. You can buy products at the pharmacy that ease the pain, but it won't make them go away faster unfortunately. - d

2)   Shoot your nose of it stop the itching and the bleeding. - Brandon

3)   You can develop allergies at any time in your life so the allergy symptom thing really doesn't matter. What you should do is completely do a big time spring cleaning of your room starting from top to bottom. Absolutely dust everything in your room, wash the curtains, windex the windows, wash down the walls, dust the furniture really well, clean all of your bedding (last), vacuum really well (at least every other day), and make sure your parents change the air filter in the air conditioner every month or six months depending on what kind of filter they buy. It will be alot of work to do all of that but it will be worth it. Also there might be something in the air that's making it ichy. Sometimes humidity can even cause an itchy nose, and pollen and gunk in the air. One thing that you could do is take an antihistamine, espcially since it's been going on for several days. Sometimes taking an antihitamine will knock it right out and you won't have any more problems especially if you do this along with all the cleaning and dusting. Benadryl is good but remember it will make you very drowsy so just be prepared for that. You could also use a saline spray which is a nonmedicated salt water spray that you just squirt in your nose. It keeps your nose clean and clears out any itchiness, congestion, dirt, dryness, etc. It really works. You should be able to find it at any drugstore or grocery store where the nose sprays are located. - lemondrop

Question 5
How do I get rid of my sebaceous cysts?...  Okay I will give you a little background on myself. I am a 20 year old man dealing with the stresses of life from having two jobs... to going to school to get a degree. My story is a little long so please stick with me, and it starts out like this. About a year ago i developed a lump behind my right ear and i thought it was just a large pimple without a head. So i proceeded to sterilize a need and poke into it. Nothing came out so I left it alone. About 2 months later it became unbearably sore so I went to a doctor and he told me that i had a sebaceous cyst and that it needed to be taken out. So 15 minutes later the deed was done and I thought the problem was over. About 3 months later i developed a cyst on the back of my head in the top right corner. I went back to my doctor to have this one cut out. I was told the when i poked the first one open that I burst the sac the cyst was in and allowed it to possibly get into my bloodstream. So I again thought that it was gone and I had nothing to worry about. Well about a month after that it was back in the same spot. So my mother decided to take me to a dermatologist, thinking they would know more. So the dermatologist injected into the cyst a steroid called Prednisone. A week later the cyst had dramatically decreased in size but to no avail it came back. Having money problems the copay at my regular family doctor was cheaper so we went to have it removed again. While my doctor was removing it she said that she felt she had missed something and told me to come back the next day to see if she could get it all out. Well I came back the next day and while she was digging around in my scalp, she posed a question with a concerned sound. She asked me if I had "ever had a head injury." I said no. "Did your mother notice that your skull hadn't completely formed when you were a child?" No. I started to get worried and then she told me to give my hand to her. She took my index finger to feel something. She rubbed my finger over my head near the cyst. My skull was indented right beneath where the cyst was. To make a long story short. I had a CT scan and an MRI. I have a 3cm crater in my skull caused by the Prednisone shot. Been to an infectious disease doctor, neurosurgeon. Now I have 12 cysts on my head. Help me out. Doctors won't work.

2)   Wow sorry to hear... I would recommend getting a second opinion. Also could try the hospital. Might need surgery to get it all taken care of - Jessica M.

Answers
1)   You're Fucked! - ButtHead

2)   sorry sir or mam i don't know......... - Zahead

3)   Most likely it is not an STD. The symptoms don't really add up. Couple pieces of advise. #1 he needs to change what he wears. He needs to wear boxers not briefs. Second he needs to shower more. It's not that he is dirty it just some men are susceptible to dry skin. It is always concerning when it's "down their" . Lastly some moisturizer which can be made into a fun game of sorts. Oh and one more thing, as soon as you both stop worrying about an STD you may find that lower stress levels will cause this to go away soon. Stress manifests itself in many ways and physiological ones are common - GoodWillHunt

if you dont have a hot water bottle you can use a big baloon and a piece of a water hose.

Question 3
Have 2 bumps on my scalp . Is this cancer!? mI very scared.?...  ust to let you know i have hypocondria, and worry/ anxiety problems. I know and i am pretty sure the first bump is a pimple bcuz it is red. My dad said it was normal and just a hair folocule growing or some infection. I am 13 btw. I havnt got any headache or any signs of cancer. But the other bump is kinda hard sorta like the other one. It feels like the other one to a little bigger. And red on the top. It hurts likea bruise when I touch it, I am soo scared right now! My parents said its ok and normal but idk. I am freaking.


thanks. and btw the second one is down on the left not really by my neck though

its bleeding now cuz i tryed to pop it?

Answers
1)   Yes its cancer - Reagan Fan 420

2)   It sounds like an ingrown hair to me (I've had them on my scalp before and your description fits). Keep the area clean and try to avoid touching it. It should go away within a few weeks (depending on the size of the bump). Don't try to pop it! You'll only irritate it further.

However, if you are overly concerned or anxious about it, go see a doctor. - JET

3)   hey that happened to me, like the exact same thing. i just showered more frequently and washed my hair 2 times and alot more thorough then before, and it kinda faded away in a few days. hope this helps! and btw, i dont think you have cancer :) - S

4)   Does not sound even remotely like any form of cancer.

Sounds like an ingrown hair, infected hair follicle or hormonal pimple. - Tarkarri

Question 5
Can someone get rid of diabetes?...  My 8 year old cousin just found out she has diabetes so I was reading online about the symptoms and I used to have those symptoms. Could I have gotten rid of it when I started exercising and eating better when sport season started back?

Answers
1)   It depends on what type of diabetes (type 1 or 2) and what was the degree of impairment. Type 1 can not be "gotten rid of" but type 2 (which is a different mechanism than type 1) can be improved tremendously by exercise & weight loss. It is also possible you did not have diabetes to begin with if you were not actually diagnosed. - Diane A

2)   No. It is not possible to cure diabetes. Most likely your cousin has type 1 diabetes. This type of diabetes is hereditary. You cannot prevent it, at all. You can prevent type 2 diabetes (previously known as adult-onset diabetes) by exercising regularly and eating right. - niquenique45

3)   No once you have diabetes you can't work it off. It is a cronic illness, making it a disease - Love my Pup!!

how do you get rid of eczema?

Question 1
how do you get rid of eczema?...  well i dont know if its eczema but my friend said it is..its like a red rash on my arms and theres little bumps. i looked up pictures of eczema and if it is eczema its very mild. i've had this red rash thing for months..well i think..but how do i get rid of it? and how long will it take? my friends mom said to use neosporin but will that help? im 13- if that matters.
and it dosent itch

Answers
1)   go to a dermatologist - sweetlilbrat26

2)   It would be better to check with a doctor - HALLAYNT

3)   1) Apply coconut oil (pure coconut oil from the grocery store) multiple times a day (it is anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-viral, and very healing for skin); 2) Spray your skin with Avene thermal water at least once/day (get it at drugstore.com); 3) Take Omega 3,6,9 supplements; and 4) Avoid anything with fragrances, chemicals, as described below (I now use Weleda Almond moisturizer); 5) Take exceptional care of your immune system - remove allergens from your home, get plenty of sunshine and vitamin D, get sleep, control stress, eat foods that help your immune functioning. Eczema is a systemic problem that rears its head when your body is not balanced. I hope you feel better soon. - Zarsa

4)   Use an ointment (ointment has more of a vaseline-texture, as opposed to a creamy texture) containing cortisone (like Mylocort), available at any pharmacy. I also get eczema behind my knee when I'm stressed. If it itches, don't scratch it, which will make it worse; rather apply something cool to the rash, like a bag of frozen peas.
The ointment will start working immediately and your rash will probably be gone in a couple of days, as you've said it's mild. However, if it's contact dermatitis (skin allergies caused by something you're in constant contact with) then you're likely to continue getting the rash unless you avoid touching whatever's irritating your skin. - Nox

5)   So sorry to hear about that.

You will not be sure it is eczema unless you see a doctor. To me, it sounds more like heat rash. Eczema typically is itchy.

If it is heat rash, use power and stay out of humidity. NO CREAMS...that will make the area sweatier.

If it is eczema you need a prescription.

Good Luck! - Shortz45

6)   get it checked out by your doctor and they'll probs give you a cream to put on it
th cream i was given clears mine up in 2 days - Cait

I TRIED PRO ACTIVE FOR 3 MONTHS AND IT DIDNT DO A THING FOR ME

Answers
1)   ive always had alot of luck with pro active... like i know they used to advertise alot but stuff does work..
hope this helped..
best regards - bmw153

2)   My HS boyfriend had acne really bad and his cleared up with Proactiv. I'm not sure if it works for everyone. You can get a trial from a vending machine in the mall here for $20. I've heard of dermatologists using ultra-violet lights to treat acne. You should ask your doc about it and I think the treatments are also available at spas.
Something else you might want to try is all natural makeup, like Bare Escentuals, Bare Minerals. I know there are some less expensive versions in drug stores and dept stores if money is a factor. - BlackSunshine84

3)   One major thing you need to do is STOP wearing tons of makeup.
When my acne got really bad I quit wearing foundation and powder.
They clog your pores no matter what commercials say.
Stop eating junk food.
Another thing I did was stop drinking pop and anything real sugary.
Water is all I drink and it does wonders.
Wash your face with just a daily face wash everyday or maybe even twice.
And if your going to wear makeup remember to remove it before you go to bed EVERY night.
hope this helps. - Hannah

Answers
1)   i went to one, they tell you possible causes and how you can stop it

3)   I went to my dermatologist and she gave me two creams one Differin for the night and one duac for the day. They weren`t nice to use 1. because they stung abit 2. because they peel (but they`re supposed to!) but I did see a small difference by the end of the week, I saw quite a lot of difference after and month and after two I was almost clear skinned :) However yes when I did stop using them the spots came back.

Bleeding may be serious and persistent, leading to anemia. Children with Crohn’s disease may suffer delayed development and stunted growth. The range and severity of symptoms varies.

What type of rash is this?

Question 1
What type of rash is this?...  My boyfriend has had these red/ rash like spots on him. They're larger, more like blotches on his leg, back of his arms, and his back. They have been there for about 5 days. He says that they do not hurt or itch. They're not raised up or anything; they're just there.

-It is not scaly.
-It is not itchy.
-It is not swollen or welped.
-It is not dry skin.

--It's just red blotches on his skin that won't go away.

Does anyone know what type of rash this is and what the cause could be?

Question 2
Has anyone ever had a mole removed?...  Of course after consulting a doctor. I am not talking about a doing it yourself project.
I have a big mole with a diameter of 0.7mm that is also inconvenient and i heard various stories on removing moles that it's not safe, that you can die if you have it removed and so on. Has anyone removed a mole? How safe is it?

Question 3
Lump behind right ear?...  So I woke up this morning and felt a bit crappy. A few minutes ago, I felt a lump behind my right ear. When I touch it, it hurts, but it doesn't really hurt that much when I'm not touching it. It feels like a part of my bone.. kinda bony. I've been looking this up and I'm thinking it's a lymph node, but I don't know. Everyone says go to the doctor, but I'd rather not. I'm terrified that it might be cancer. Oh, and I haven't been sick for a while, but I do kinda feel sick right now.

Answers
1)   it could be a sebaceous cyst. nothing to worry about but you should really go to the doctor so he/she can have a closer look. it could be a build up of pressure behind your ear too. - tomo

2)   I am pretty sure that it is your lymph node. If it hurts, you should go to the doctor, I know that you said you didn't want to, but it might just be an infection. I have swollen lymph nodes almost all of the time. My doctor told me that lymph nodes can stay swollen for a while after you are sick, up to a month; however, they shouldn't hurt when you touch them, they should be able to be moved a bit when you touch them. If you are overweight, this could also lead to swollen lymph nodes. I would see a doctor because when they hurt, that means that there is something wrong. Good luck! - jopuppy

Question 4
I have a strange body odor.?...  I'm fifteen years old and whenever I shower I smell this musty scent come off of me. I always wash my body thoroughly and don't spend all day getting dirty. I have dreadlocks but their not finished all the way so I have to make sure not to get them wet too much or else they'll come loose. I take showers twice a day-but lately I've been taking them three times a day because I've been sweating a lot more for some reason- and each time I take a shower I smell this strange mix between armpit sweat and the scent my hair got when I had an afro and didn't use shampoo when I took a shower. I'm now using shampoo each time I shower and wash my body twice with Dove Body Wash for men and use Loreal shampoo but I still always smell the weird smell. I can't find where the smell is coming off from and I make sure I was every part of my body so I don't know what the problem is. The only change I've had is my sweating has increased and the smell started a few weeks ago which was around the same time I shaved my armpits. I don't know if the shaving of my pits has anything to do with it but all I know is that the smell is irritating.

Answers
1)   you don't mention using deodorant. If you don't you will smell after a couple of hours.
There's also a good deodorant you can get that stops you sweating but it's about ten quid. You just need to use it for a couple of weeks then go back to a normal one - wanderer

2)   well this may sound weird but maybe your washing your body too much....i think a shower once a day is enough, maybe your washing away the natural oils your skin produces so i would cut down the bathing some....and maybe the dreadlocks arent very clean either - MIzzSweety

Does this mean my mom got cancer?

Question 1
Does this mean my mom got cancer?...  Yesterday my mom said she went to the Dr to remove some pre-cancerous moles, and the way she said it was like it was no big deal. You'd think it's either cancer or it's not. This sucks because all my supportive family seems to be dropping like flies, they're either dead or sick and dying. What's pre-cancer?

Answers
1)   Your mother was very wise to get these pre-cancerous moles removed. This means that they are NOT cancer now, but if she hadn't had them removed, they might have turned cancerous evenutally. Your mom does not have cancer, thanks to her intelligent choice of having them looked at and removed. - buonasera

2)   I wish they would stop using these terms. All pre cancerous means is the cells are of a type that could become cancer in time... but the facts are ALL moles could become cancer in time. Pre cancerous means not cancer. Nothing to worry about for sure. - SethSpeaks

3)   Hello there~

Your mom had moles removed that made the dr's concerned and the moles will be sent off for more testing. I would say at this point...she's more than likely ok but it was just to be on the safe side and I'm sure the dr's indicated that they want your mom to come in to the office on a regular basis to keep a careful watch on her. Hope this helps and I do hope everything will be fine! Take care! - Mercedes

4)   good 4 your mom! melanoma cancer (skin cancer) is a bad cancer. it spreads very rapidly throughout your body. it can spread to your brain and any organ you have. That is wonderful that she did that! On the other hand, have her go back again to check and make sure that all the mole was removed. My mom had melanoma and passed away. The doctors did not get it all and it spread to her brain causing a brain tumor.

Keep in check with your moles as well. - Shae

5)   We all become scared anytime the word "cancer" is used in the medical field, so the "pre" takes second stage. Pre-cancerous means there is a possibility of becoming cancerous, or a 50/50 probability. Removing it changes the possibility to 100% of cancer not happening. As an example, in a typical colonoscopy (intestinal inspection through the rectum), doctors commonly find polyps (little baggy sacs attached to the intestinal walls), which have a possibility of becoming (or not) cancerous during one's life time. The doctor removes these and cauterizes (to stop the blood flow from it) the little wound using a laser. Most of these polyps would never become cancerous. However, if they become large enough they may, so why take the risk and not snip them off? Some persons who had never had this exam done may later be sorry, because once colon cancer develops, it is very hard to irradicate. The latest example I can think of is (was) Farret Faucet who died from it last year. Think of your mom's procedure as a "preventive action" and keep your mind at peace. - Nature Lover

Me and Gf Had sex for 8 seconds No condom.. She then got sick?

Question 1
Me and Gf Had sex for 8 seconds No condom.. She then got sick?...  Okay, me and my gf just got into the moment, both unsured so we went along with it. Then I went in.. then out.. but i stopped i just didnt want to go on either did she. we both just knew this wasn't the thing to do without a condom, though we already made the mistake by starting... I regret it now.. Well that was 2 days ago, and now she's been getting sick like crazy. Fevers of 98-101, sick to the stumic, and just massive headaces... What is going on cause can it be a STD? (though i doubt because we were both virgins and none of our parents have a history of STD's in the family)

I know it's not pregency because its been 3 days, and as for her period... she never has is, maybe like 3-4 times a year. So that's a hudge problem for us. Just i need to understand what's going on... Because she is just sick all of sudden and we need to know if it's something serious? or it will just take it's course and then go away... Also i beg to you all, don't bug me about how i was stupid for not using a condom.. I KNOW, i donot need to be bothered by that right now this is a scary situation... Thank you for all your help... I need it soon... thank you everyone... god bless you.. i just hope there is an explination behind this...

How do I get rid of bacne?

Question 1
How do I get rid of bacne?...  Recently my chest and back started breaking out like crazy and it's almost summer. I was wondering if there was a product that isn't too expensive that I could use?

Answers
1)   bathing regularly is the best approach. - ez80227

2)   im sorry. sucks its right near summer. id first ask yourself...

are you under any new stress?
have you changed your diet (drink tons of water plz)
have you switched to any new soap or shampoo

talk to a dermatologist. if not then a simple google search can offer you a multitude of products for back to chest acne. Best of luck and regards. - Ram

3)   Ask your local pharmacist. They wont laugh at you or anything. They can give you some specialised face wash, for around $10 to $15 bucks.
I myself am on perscription medication (isotane) because of persistant acne. - Greg

4)   Change your diet. The oils are coming out from within you. A greasy food type diet(lots of deep fried, and potato chips, and sugars don't do a body good.) Drink plain water and lots of it, it will take awhile. Also check to see if the laundry soap has been changed to a different brand.(you are having a reaction to whatever crap they put in that soap as it transfers to the clothes) Or body lotions or whatever has "changed". Even bathing soap or shampoo. Something may be causing it from the outside. - I might assist if I feel like it

5)   I recommend use Acneace!
I used it, and after 1 months, my acne was COMPLETELY gone!
Hope it works for you.
you can get From Google Search Acneace Official site. Good luck. - S?

6)   http://www.amazon.com/Neutrogena-Body-Wash-Clean-Clear/dp/B0000535RD

the above product has helped me. scrub your body in the shower daily with it using

something like this to reach your whole back

Question 2
Does this sound like cancer?...  I have an appointment for next thursday but I'm a little nervous, so I thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. I have a lump inside my right breast, it doesn't feel perfectly round but it feels smooth and hard. Its probably about the size of a bean...maybe half an inch in diameter? It doesn't feel like I can move it around, it feels attached. And it is a little tender but not sore. It is located above the nipple, a little further to the right (toward my armpit).
Oh and I am 20 years old.

Answers
1)   =/ Let me know what happens, i think i might have somthign like that too - NewNew

2)   Actually it sounds like you have a tumor (lumps c an be found anywhere near chest for tumors) or skin cancer. - Aubrey

3)   Hey,
Although you should definately still go to the doctor for this as it could be as serious as cancer, to ease our nerves, it may also no be cancer at all. You could simply have a swollen or enlarged lymph node as those are quite abundant around the breast and especially nipple, this swelling can be a result of a nearby infection or sometimes these nodes do in fact just get an infection on their own. So like I said, GO TO THE DOCTOR lol, for full easement, even if it is cancer, you catch it in it's early stages and it can be removed without much trouble, but there is other possibilities as well :) - Jared

4)   You need to get a biopsy of the lump - that is the only way to know for sure. - Togmay

5)   Hi, well I have been making some research on that subject because i recently found a lump on my left armpit kind of close to my left breast..and well i found out some info that says that one of the early signs of breast cancer are breast lumps; these lumps are not painful and they are mostly located under the skin off the breast...usually if you can't see the lump it might be in a very early stage. I hope your case doesn't involve cancer. I also made an appointment because i want to get that lump checked. Good luck and take care. - maribeljuice

It is worth it, but it takes a couple months before you begin to really see the benefits. The longer you don't smoke, the easier each day gets. Just remember, if you don't buy them you don't have them to smoke. - SethSpeaks

4)   I quit totally on the 1st of April and I can tell you that you are doing good and keep it up and find a way to stop thinking about smoking and face a fact like I did. Cigarettes are not an answer they are a crutch that you do not need and if you let them they will run your life and not you running it. So find a good way to stay away from them and a way to stop thinking about them and get yourself motivated to stay quit. It can be done and you can do it with willpower and you will be better off and you will make it and remember you do not need them running your life, You and your own health need to be running your life. From a happy quitter and you can do it also. Good Luck and work on it, you can make it. Use mind over matter. Your mind says it does not matter. - oldestme

Question 3
What are the freckles spreading from my feet up my legs?...  A little background: I am 25, very fair skinned, and wear sunscreen every day.

About two years ago, I noticed small patches of tiny, heavily clustered freckles on the tops of my feet, right below my ankles. They are not raised, they do not itch. They just look like a bunch of freckles all in one area. A year-and-a-half ago I was seeing a dermatologist about an unrelated issue and asked him about it. He said it was iron deposits in my skin from heavy use of antibiotics (I had pneumonia three years ago) and it was "cosmetic."

I accepted that answer, rubbed on some cream he gave me for them... and saw no difference. I noticed the freckles were spreading up my legs slowly, but figured it was just the antibiotics issue. Now I am worried. In a year-and-a-half the freckles have gone from the tops of my feet to almost up to my knees.

Does anyone know what the heck this is? Should I see a cosmetic dermatologist since maybe they would actually CARE about the issue? Another type of doctor?

2)   Yes it does because it keeps your body hydrated and prevent over heating. So drink away! - Guru Wizard

3)   Acne often isn't related to what you eat or drink but to hormones or possibly genetic factors so drinking lots of water may not necessarily help.
However,it is good for your general health and the health of your skin to keep well hydrated. There is a theory now that it is better to get a lot of your water intake from water rich foods such as vegetables than drinking buckets of the stuff straight. - sarah

4)   correct. drink lots of water makes you healthy. but remember, this only applies to pure water. if you had acne, it's probably because a lot of fat that you eat. avoid such foods, chocolate, nuts, etc - dcor

4)   MOISTURIZE! and i found an amazing way to get rid of dry skin and it makes your skin soooo smooth; you get a few table-spoons of sugar and add some baby-oil to it and mix it together, then apply it to wherever you have dry skin and rub it in circular motions, leave for 10 minutes and then rinse it off. the sugar exfoliates and the baby-oil just generally softens your skin. It works so well! i recommend you try and it and do it several times a week :) - Emmaa

Panic/Anxiety Or Something Worse?

Question 1
Panic/Anxiety Or Something Worse?...  I deal with this everyday, I can't handle it anymore, I am in constant fear that I am going to drop dead to a heart attack. Even though I am only 19 years old. Any pain I get I think oh crap, here it comes. 2 months ago I had some pretty bad panic attacks, although at the time I never heard of panic attacks, both times I felt like I was going to die, I felt like I was having a heart attack, (its always been a fear of mine) I check my pulse all the time thinking that its going to be different, or checking that my heart is still working. I've done a fair amount of drugs, smoked for 4 years, and drank heavily). So it makes me think that I do have a heart problem or that I am going to die from a heart attack at such a young age. Many doctors have told me that everything sounds fine, and that my breathing is fine and whatnot (ever since my panic attacks, I've been very short of breath ALL THE TIME, like I gasp for air every 10 minutes). I've had many tests on my heart, ECG's EKG's, chest xwray's, blood work etc. Everything came back normal. But yet I still fear that I am going to have a heart attack, everyday. Sometimes I tell myself come on Tom, you know this is just in your head, but my symptoms get so real sometimes that I have no choice but to think that there is something seriously wrong with me.

Symptoms are:
Weakness on and off.
Chest pains on the left side come and go (Rarely pain when I workout)
Dizziness
Can't focus
Heart palps
Sweaty Palms
Shortness of breath - constant
Brain Fog


Recently I have been in fear that I am going to have a stroke, or something worse. In the last few weeks I've had "Brain Fog", it feels like my brain is so heavy, it feels like I can't process anything. It literally feels like I am going "retarded". I can never focus on anything, I "zone out" really, really easy. I am so sick of feeling this way. I can't enjoy life. I don't know whether this is from "anxiety" or if these symptoms are something real. Maybe I'm just really stressed, I lost my license, I no longer have a steady job, still haven't gotten my grade 12. I no longer have my beloved Ford F150. My family is just brushing me off now, saying "Tom, how can this many things be wrong with you?". "You are fine, this is all in your head". It's easy to say its in your head but when your experiencing it, it really doesn't feel like its all in your head. It's SO REAL TO YOU. Night time is the worst for me. I am always in fear of sleep because I think I might die durning it. It sounds ridiculous I know. But I am being so serious. Sometimes my heart will pound, or something and I'll start panicking. I will literally stay up till I am exausted and say "screw" this, if I'm going to die then so be it, I am just to "effing" tired.

Anyways I'm sorry for typing you my whole life story I just have no body to talk to, and my family thinks that I am going crazy. I've never EVER felt like this before, I used to be the most fun guy to be around, I was never scared of anything, I could talk to anybody with ease. And pick up almost any girl, and now its the complete opposite and I feel like my life is over. Thanks for reading all of this, even though it sounds pretty crazy.

Tom

3)   You need to see your dr and get an anti-depressant and panic attack medication. Talking to someone helps just as you wrote above. Death is not that easy you just can't predict or say you are going to die even though you feel crushed by the panic attack it passes and it will continue to do so. See a therapist if you can or just someone you can talk to that will listen and understands. Good luck. - syl c.

5)   Is there even a question here?
You are anxoius/panic attacks... plain and simple. Your symptoms don't make any sense and you have had plenty of tests. The kicker was "rarely when I work out" People with heart conditions can't work out very well... they die. Its a slow process to rehab a heart, and given that you're 19, you dont have heart disease and you wont have a heart attack. You better come to grips with this now, before you start going to emergency rooms and being admitted every time you feel a little off. Stop freaking out so much. - Dagobot

6)   I skipped over the life story and just read the symptoms... I think you should go see your doctor because these symptoms could be because of a heart condition, anxiety and/or something more trivial like iron deficiency. Talking to a doctor could help you both physically and emotionally. They have to listen to you, it's their job. - Catherine

Question 4
Chest pain, and bleeding after I stopped smoking?...  Hi, I'm 17, been smoking for 2 years. I usually smoked a half a pack to a pack a day. I quit smoking a few days ago, but I took some hits on some one eles's cig. My chest has been hurting, and bothering my shoulders. I don't have shortness of breath, or a cough. Today I hacked, and I spit some blood out. I kept spitting up blood, then went to the emergency room. Had a chest x-ray, and they didn't find any thing. I don't know where the blood is coming from. When I pick my nose there is some blood on my finger, but I'm spitting up blood.

What's wrong with me?

Answers
1)   see http://tinyurl.com/health-solutions/
I hope it will be helpful in resolving your probeml keep using answers.yahoo.com - Mmk

2)   It is possible that you could spit up blood if you have post nasal drip and your mucus membranes are damaged. Basically post nasal drip is the drainage of mucus down the back of the throat because your sinuses are congested Also acid reflux disease causes chest pain and spitting up blood this is inflammation of the esophagus which is always irritated by years of smoking. - syl c.

3)   Hello, I'm a doctor. Use Tramadol. I think that you want to get more info about it. Please go to ----> http://husa66.notlong.com/2AAwbpB - Kelsey

4)   So, there is something called Pleurisy, look it up for more information. But anyhow, its an inflammation of the lining of the lung. It causes a burning chest pain or a sharp stabbing chest pain that sometimes gets worse with deep breaths or smoking.

Since you have blood on your finger, i'm going to say that the blood is coming out of the very back of your nose, dripping down your throat and making it seem like you are coughing up blood.

STOP SMOKING, take some motrin every 6 to 8 hours and see how you do - Dagobot

Can these problems be serious?

Question 1
Can these problems be serious?...  I'm only 12 years of age and have painful pains on the right side of my rib cage and on the lower right of my hip. I'm not overweight nor do I know of any breathing problems. And have been experiencing this for about two weeks. The pains start with a cough, sneeze, and continue to hurt. Whenever I inhale a lot I tend to start the pain. Any Ideas?

Answers
1)   Sounds like a broken rib. You should tell your parents so they can take you to the doctor to be sure it isn't something more serious. Good luck. - Nova J

2)   there may be a problem with your appendix, as i think that's where it is. ask your parents or a doctor :) - Megan

3)   It may be the beginning of an infection, or it could have been caused by a sport of activity you have taken part in. If it's not better in a few days I would go to your GP for advice.
Best of luck :) - Alison

4)   sounds like it could be a strained muscle Try some ibuprofen for pain and any inflammation and if it continues or gets worse go see the Dr. and get it checked good luck - seminoleswty

5)   tell your parents about this. Then visit with your school nurse and ask your parents to arrange a doctor appointment. Strange pains sometimes come and go but two weeks is a long time for a pain to persist.
Don. Your English composition skills are very good Why do you inhale a lot? too much exercise? that could also account for the pain but have it checked out. - don c

6)   Could be kidney stones/ or infection. I just got over them both, and it felt the same way. Go to your doctor soon! - Kdgo

Question 3
asthma attacks every night ?!?...  im going to make this to the point. im 14. ive tried cigarettes, ended up smoking for about 4 months, quit about 5 months ago. When i smoked i smoked one black and mild or sometimes two cigarettes a day, so it was never really that heavy but i did smoke. I sas born with asthma. Thats a horrible combo right off the bat. Ive smoked pot before. Only a few times though, if you know your stuff you know that pot smoking is alot less frequent then tabacco smoking. You become addicted to cigarettes and what not, and pot is for the most part just a recreational thing. Anyway so from 2009-2010 ive smoked a bit. Not a whole lot but a little bit. My asthma has gotten alot worse. I also inhale alot of second hand smoke even now that i quit, because alot of my friends still smoke, and im around them pretty much everyday after school. we hang out outside a convenient store where everyone smokes out front, so its really not doing me any good and i know it. But weve had this routine all year and we always hang out, relax after a long school day, kick back, talk. alot of girls would hang out with us their too. sometimes wed leave with some of the girls to ''hang out''..lol. on a friday people would always say where their partys were gunna be and all that. id miss that lifestyle so much if i stopped hanging out their. And plus not just that, they ARE my friends regardless of wether they smoke or not. I was their too, and MY friends didnt abandon ME...i really dont know what to do. it really isnt doing my health any good and my asthma is getting worse. im having frequent attacks now, im wheezing a bit, coughing often, and also im an athlete and have been having trouble doing excersize...i dont know what to do ! i feel so out of breath right now as we speak. My inhailor seems useless now..
as my title says, during the day its not as bad but when i get home it gets alot worse especially at night and really especially in my room for some reason then other parts of the house.
Oh and also, i have a bad family history sorta. My grandpa died of emphysema and was on a breathing machine for years before he died because of smoking when he was younger.

Answers
1)   If you smoke anything with asthma you are very foolish.

Sounds like you need an oral bronchodilator, such as Singulair or something like that to work along side your rescue inhaler. You may even need a nebulizer for breathing treatments periodically.
I suggest you see your Dr. and STOP SMOKING! You have an opportunity to control and correct your problems at this point. One day it will be too late. - I don't believe it!

2)   i outgrew my breathing problems that i was on inhailors and machinces for, I kinda had minor trouble when i first would smoke but nothing as major as what your saying. I woulnd't hurt yourself over smoking though. Now I'm a rare type of smoker I don't piss and moan about being addicted i smoke because I enjoy it and I even roll my own which is 1 cheaper than all get out, and time consuming so its like the next level smoker, so many flavors and tube and paper types, anyways. ...

It's your call man its your body just don't abuse it too bad, but I'll be honest with you smoking plays hell on anything to do with running, i used to be able to run like mad back in highschool and all I can still run now however my lungs can't keep up with it, my body can but not my lungs if that makes any sense? - SgtXcom

3)   Hey there! I have asthma too. And like you said, asthma and smokes are a bad combo! Stop smoking, or when your older, your gonna be on one of those breathing machines or worse man! Anyways, exercise is good. And swimming!
Bye and quit now! Lol =] - !!!LOVE!!!
