I've done something to my back and I have no clue what. Jesus fuck it hurts to stand or sit or really do anything. It's in the low-mid-ish part of my back. I've taken 2 Aleve, cracked/popped my back, everything but the pain doesn't go away.
i have vitiligo all over my dick and balls so + all the hair that grows out of the white blotches are grey. i have a fucking old man dick.
What happens to scars that happen to bisect a stretch mark? With the scar having been made before
[QUOTE=MountainWatcher;32246023]What happens to scars that happen to bisect a stretch mark? With the scar having been made before[/QUOTE] I doubt anything [I]really[/I] bad will happen. It's not like you back will split open or anything. At the most, I'd say that part of the stretch mark will just be numb where the scar tissue covers it. That's a bit less pain when you rub it, yes?
Sometimes sweets make me dizzy if I eat too many. Usually kicks in about an hour after eating. It doesn't really bother me but I'm bored so I thought I'd mention it to our medical experts here.
Does anyone here know if ingrown nails return to their normal nail being if you wait long enough? I've had them for over a year now. they look as if nothing is wrong with them by now, but they are still ingrown. It only hurts when i press on the sides or do stuff like running.

Don't eat too many sweets or you'll get diabetes.
[QUOTE=Contag;32250337]That's a result from, unsurprisingly, high blood sugar. Don't eat too many sweets or you'll get diabetes.[/QUOTE] I thought of that, but seeing how often I drink soda (and how I used to drink even more than I do now) and how it doesn't affect me at all, I dismissed it.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;32250362]I thought of that, but seeing how often I drink soda (and how I used to drink even more than I do now) and how it doesn't affect me at all, I dismissed it.[/QUOTE] Are the sugar contents similar, though? I don't think the absorption rates are [I]that[/I] different.
The soda has about the same if not more.
I used to get a ticklish feeling in my tongue if I ate a lot of chocolate. No longer, though. Any idea what could be causing that?
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;32250403]The soda has about the same if not more.[/QUOTE] That's strange. How many sweets are too many? I'm finding it difficult to envision drinking more sugar than eating it. The sweets I'm thinking of are ~70% sugar (jelly beans) and the soda (coke) is 10% by weight. If that's not the case, then perhaps your body is better adapted to excreting the sugar-soda faster, though that seems unlikely. Are these all sweets, or a specific brand? It may also be psychosomatic.
It mainly happens if I eat too much cereal.
I get a hangover if I drink too much water in the summer, but I have never gotten a hangover from drinking alchohol. why is this
Pain in chest, just under ribs, a bit left. And sometimes strong pain in the middle of robs or whatever they are called. Like a nail would be pushed through it.

These aren't just self-diagnosed, are they? If the doctor agree with you, he'll most likely prescribe something to help you sleep.
Why when I eat some of the fruit (mostly caused by apples, pineapples, pears, plums, peaches AND nuts, in my throat and inside my mouth everything fucking tickels too bad. I stopped eating apples because of this.
Ok, so I cut off all sources of caffeine because I moved and changed jobs and didn't have time for it, I started having panic attacks, bad anxiety, shakiness, and really bad depression. I figured out it was from caffeine withdrawal. I have been drinking energy drinks and soda every day for the last 3 years. I have also been drinking lots of coffee in the morning too. It's been about 8 days since I have stopped drinking caffeine and my anxiety and panic attacks are gone but I have this deep depression that feels as if I don't want to live, its weird. Anybody have caffeine withdrawals and had this kind of depression as a symptom? I need help on how long it's going to last it's really interfering with my job.
This happend a long time ago (When I was 7-8) and I just want to know what the hell happend. Basically I was just doing random things when suddenly my vision got all wierd (Like when you turn up the contrast in games insanely high) and my hearing was also really, REALLY distorted. Anyone know wtf happend? It only lasted about 5-10 minutes but it scared the shit out of me. I think my brain needs a new graphics card.

A can of soft drink.

That can screw with your blood pressure and create the effects you've described.

So a while ago me and my friends were chillin at this girls house drinking vodka, and smoking joints. I don't usually get to trashed but it was a special night (we were celebrating something) so I said fuck it and hit the vodka like a champ. Instead of sipping shots from the bottle I took chugs, and after about an hour I was fffffffffffucked up, like the most drunk I've ever been everything was fucking spinning and I could barely stand up, I was laying down waiting for a joint to get rolled when my other friend starts fucking with me. I get hit in the nose on accident and was like whatever and kept laying down. I think I got a bloody nose and was too drunk to realize it because I was laying down and all the blood was like dripping down my throat into my stomach. Well that shit made me puke, it was scary as fuck though throwing up stomach-fulls of blood, I stopped drinking for a while after that...

I'm not sure, but I've heard things dripping from your nose into your throat can cause "drowning" of sorts, a bit like how Hendrix died. I'd recommend you slow down on the brewskis a bit next time. And, y'know, don't hang around people who punch you in the nose hard enough to give you a nose-bleed when they get drunk, especially not when they're drinking.
What's a quick and easy (also hopefully not painful) method of removing an ingrown toenail? I am not going to see a doctor about it because it's such a trivial thing. I was thinking of letting my foot soat in some warm water for a while or some shit, and then use nail scissors to cut along the edge of the visible nail where the ingrowth is, then pull it out and hope it doesn't break up inside and the pain not be too much. Any other methods though? I don't have access to nail scissors, or any scissors small enough to do this.
