are laptops dangerous when they are on your lap?
Posted Monday December 31 2007, 6:54 pm
I've heard from a few people that putting your laptop on your lap is bad, because it emits radiation and can cause some damage to human organs. Is this true?

Concussion?
Posted Wednesday December 26 2007, 4:07 pm
I think I might have a concussion.
It happened last night, I was playing tetris all day on the computer, then I stood up suddenly, got very dizzy, blacked out, heard moaning/breathing, then I opened my eyes and the first few seconds I couldn't understand what happened. Then I felt a huge pain on my head. I got really scared, but my mom was there and she comforted me, but I was still pretty upset and was crying for the next ten or so minutes. My mom said that I got a head rush, blacked out, fell, and bumped my head on the door. I had a pretty big lump on my head, but I iced it a little, and its gone down, although it still hurts to the touch.
When I calmed down, I felt more or less normal. I went to bed, and f...

Back knots
Posted Wednesday December 26 2007, 5:11 am
My back has been hurting for nearly two weeks. I have many tight knots in my muscles. I often lean over slightly because I crochet for a few hours or draw. But I've been sitting correctly with good posture to avoid any future knots.. but every time I sit.. my back is throbbing. I've received massages from my mom about three times already and I can feel it loosen up.. and I've been sitting correctly for the past week.. so what's wrong? Lately, my bras have been digging into my skin and my mom thinks I need a D cup now. [I'm 16] Is it possible for the lack of support to be hurting my back ? A D cup ? Is there anything else I can do to help my back? I can't go to a doctor or anything like that soon. Hot showers or baths don't work.

My infected toe....
Posted Saturday December 15 2007, 10:53 am
I'm not sure if this is in the right category.
I have this infected toe. Whenever I touch it it hurts. My mom set an appointment to get it removed....the toenail. Now I'm scared! I've been through this already once and it didn't go well. I screamed and shouted rejecting that I didn't want the two shots(I hate needles!) It's humiliating but I don't know if I can control it. What could I think in my mind while hugging my mom totally distract me from the shots? Please hurry!!!It's next week!!

discoid lateral meniscus
Posted Thursday December 13 2007, 5:06 pm
ever since i can remember my knee has popping when i bend it, it never bothered me until a few years ago. i never said anything to the doctor because im afraid of needing surgery. in gym we are doing weight training and when we did squats i didnt bend my knee when going down so it hurt bad. then it started to be painless popping. until church and we had to kneel on the bench thing then it kinda was sore. then gym again we did squats and now my knee hurts.i went to the doctor to get my wrist checked out and my mom mentioned my knee. he looked at it and had it xrayed. he thinks it is a discoid lateral meniscus but i am having an MRI done on saturday to make sure nothing is torn in my knee (which he and i dont think is the case since ive had i...

Tripped
Posted Tuesday November 27 2007, 2:57 pm
Last night I tripped over my computer chord and fell forward into hard wood floor, I didn't get a chance to brace myself so I basically just hit the floor hard.
My chord was plugged into an outlet (And my computer) and it was pulled really tight since the chord is short. My computer was sitting on top of a box which was relatively high. I had hopped over the chord to get something, and I went to turn back, but instead of going OVER the chord, I ran into it. Like I said, I fell forward, and took my computer with me. Meaning it fell to the floor just like I did.
I got the wind knocked out of pretty badly, but lately it's been hard for me to breathe. I have anxiety so honestly that might be all it is. I know that ...

Today, my dog bit me. (chihuahua) Really badly on my thumb. Like...where the nail and skin meets, he punctured that part and I could see the hole and blood and stuff. (I don't have good experiences with dogs. I got bit on the leg before)
But anyway,
Blood started gushing out. I was home alone so I didn't know what to do. I let some blood come out before I actually treated the wound (I had to lock my dog up)
I treated it with hydrogen peroxide and iodine and then I carefully wrapped it around in a band-aid. A couple of minutes in, I felt really ligtheaded, I nearly fainted.
I was SOO weak, that I couldn't stand up, I felt like the whole world was closing in on me, eveything got dark and I couldn...

Period help.
Posted Saturday November 24 2007, 7:39 pm
Hey there. I just started using tampons. I'm at the heaviest point, so I know it's okay to use them. I can get it in with no problem. The problem is that when I stand up or sit down, it starts hurting really badly. I know it's in the right place too. What could be the problem? And I don't have septate or anything abnormal. Another question I have is how far in you is your hymen? Thanks for the advice in advance.

Nose Piercing
Posted Monday November 19 2007, 1:03 pm
okay so i pierced my nose at home using an earring stud. i left it in for 12 hours, but hated it bc it was so big. so i went out and bought little plastic studs.
i was reading up on nosepiercings and all the sites say you need titanium, or something hypoallergenic. so instead of a metal i have a plastic in my nose.. is that dangerous, or does it not make any difference/make it better.
