[QUOTE=Contag;32158618]Tylenol is only in the United States, funnily enough other countries exist too. I could either say paracetamol/acetaminophen, or list everything from here [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_paracetamol_brand_names[/url][/QUOTE] Tylenol: Brazil, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Myanmar, Puerto Rico, Peru, South Korea, Thailand, United States. Formerly marketed in Ireland. Lol you're funny. You could just use regular ass brand names, it's a lot easier and most people don't know the generic names of drugs. If you're involved with patient health care at all which I'm assuming you are you should already know not to speak medicalese. [QUOTE=BrQ;32166289]I hear red blood just means something bleeding close to your anus (most likely nothing bad) but if it's black blood, it might mean internal complications.[/QUOTE] Well red blood means that it wasn't digested for a long enough time, probably something near the anus or in the last part of your colon.
Got my ribs crushed getting thrown around at MMA today. Sharp pain when I move around or laugh, but nothing intolerable. Hurts when I put pressure on them, seems to be around the the area of the floating ribs on my right side.
does it feel crunchy at all?
Nah. And there doesn't seem to be any abnormal movement, it's just painful. Dunno if it's possible to "jam" ribs or anything like that.
probably just tender from the trauma to it, these things are to be expected in MMA though haha. can't really tell from the internet, i'd let it go for now. take some ibuprofen and ice it. if it gets harder to breath and do normal things go to the hospital.
Yeah it's no big deal. Shit happens. Combat sport. Just going to have a few beers to help me sleep tonight, haha.
Right under the soft spot where my neck is (Collarbone/Clavicle?) it kinda juts out 1/2 - 1/4 an inch farther than the other side. It doesn't hurt but i only recently noticed it and it's a bit weird.
[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;32171143]Tylenol: Brazil, Canada, Japan, Mexico, Myanmar, Puerto Rico, Peru, South Korea, Thailand, United States.

Tylenol doesn't make things heal faster. It thins the blood, reducing swelling. Has some shit that makes you feel better too. Guess what alcohol does. Thins the blood. Also makes you feel better. All the same, captain. That's why it can be dangerous to take Tylenol after a night of heavy drinking because your blood is already thin, thinning it more can make you have a heart attack.

Either is better than nothing, though ibuprofen is better. If you're at risk of having a heart attack, then you shouldn't be drinking at all. If you're a healthy male in your prime, you should be absolutely fine.
Welp, I went and got it checked out. Fractured. Doesn't really hurt too bad doing most things, but sleeping last night was pretty much impossible. Breathing while laying down is killer. Got some pretty powerful drugs from the doctor though, so all is good in the neighborhood.
tylenol should especially be administered when you're dealing with a battlefield casualty. cough

I haven't heard of this Tylenol before I read this. But if I know what the chemical name is for it I can find out what it actually is. And don't be silly. Contag isn't in medical care.

Do you recommend Tai Yong Medical arms or Sarif Industries?
[QUOTE=Frank_West;32193095]Do you recommend Tai Yong Medical arms or Sarif Industries?[/QUOTE] Depends on your cash flo- wait, if you're in need of new arms, how the fuck are you typing this?
[QUOTE=Corky;32155793]I've had chronic headaches since I was 5 or 6, and since I was 12, I've had huge migraines on a monthly basis. I just got dismissed from school today because of it. The regions range differently, from the back corners of my brain to the front, and today it went from the back all the way into my eyes. Please, if anyone can help me, I'd be appreciative.[/QUOTE] Used to happen to me. Drinking lots of water reduced the headaches ALOT
White stuff dribbles out of my penis when I'm happy
whenever i look at myself i get a boner is this a problem
[QUOTE=Jhawsh;32212501]whenever i look at myself i get a boner is this a problem[/QUOTE] Yes. You have a severe, undiagnosed case of Unwarranted Self-Importance. We'll need to amputate your testicles before it spreads.
I have some sort of cut in the back of my mouth and it wont heal, it's so dang painful. I heard warm water and salt will make it heal, anything else?
[QUOTE=RedSponge;32212889]I have some sort of cut in the back of my mouth and it wont heal, it's so dang painful.

Salt water will help it a bit but just gotta give it time.
Since around yesterday or so I've been having this crushing pain in my stomach area. It's worse when I'm standing/moving.
[QUOTE=GordonZombie;32214965]Since around yesterday or so I've been having this crushing pain in my stomach area.

Kinda between right upper and right lower.
As you can type, it doesn't seem to be gall/kidney stones (holy motherfuck that shit is painful). Probably appendicitis. Or a pulled muscle, perhaps. [editline]12th September 2011[/editline] Do you have much of an appetite?
[QUOTE=Atlascore;32237289]There's red stuff coming out of my ears and mouth, is this normal?[/QUOTE] You have brain damage take an aspirin immediately. [editline]12th September 2011[/editline] Oh, you're bleeding? Stuff as many aspirin pills into the wounds as you can - aspirin is an 'anti' coagulant so it should dissolve the leak and stop the coagulation of your blood out of your respiratory system.
Anyone have some great, safe tips on how to get rid of a sunburn quickly?
[QUOTE=Lordgeorge16;32244446]Anyone have some great, safe tips on how to get rid of a sunburn quickly?[/QUOTE] Just drink a metric fuck ton of water, and maybe put lotion on it.
