  • Why has my face broken out SO badly all of a sudden if I've never had an acne problem in the past?

    I'm an almost 21-year-old female who has never had an acne problem in all her life. I do get the occasional zit here and there, maybe a small little patch of zits seldomly, some blackheads...but NEVER like this...

    I woke up one day and I swear it's like it just appeared overnight...

    My forehead is absolutely COVERED in pimples...some are whiteheads and painful, some are just small red bumps, etc. But they're all over. It's really really bad. I don't understand how this could have happened because I have never in my life been acne-prone, then one day I wake up and it's like I'm a 14-year-old boy going through puberty or something!!!

    The pimples are also on my nose and on the side of the bridge of my nose. My hairline is bad too.

    I didn't think it was normal, especially for someone who has never had acne, to be getting such horrible acne at age 21...

    Here's what I suspect:

    -I have been extremely stressed lately (but that's nothing too new. I'm always stressed and have never had an acne breakout)

    -I run everyday and sweat a LOT (but I always keep a washcloth with me and wipe my face and I either cleanse it or take a shower immediately afterward)

    -I have been getting very little sleep lately

    -A few nights I've fallen asleep without taking my makeup off

    -I hadn't changed my pillowcases in some time, and I hear trapped dirt/oils in there can cause some (MILD) breakouts

    But, here's what I've done to help it and have seen no improvements (it's actually spreading more)

    -Cleaned/changed my sheets & pillowcases

    -Switched from harsh facial scrub and cleanser to a gentle cleanser

    -Regularly wash my hands with antibacterial soap & avoid touching my face if possible

    -Haven't even been putting any makeup over the acne areas (forehead, hairline)

    -Drinking a lot of water

    -Cleaning my face, take off makeup before bed and in the morning

    What might be the cause of this besides any of the reasons listed above??? It just doesn't make sense

    And what's your advice as far as getting rid of it? I've tried everything and made sure I haven't been doing "too much" because I know that can irritate the skin worse. But anyone who has had a bad acne problem please let me know your solution. I'm desperate. I'm so embarrassed :(

  • Does this sound like a navicular stress fracture? Please help me!!!!?

    I injured my foot running. It wasn't a distinct moment that injured it, but I think from overworking it.

    3 weeks ago it started...at first pain was only felt directly on the navicular bone when I would take a step and got worse if I ran on it. At rest, the pain was not really noticeable.

    Continued working out on it...

    NOW...I feel discomfort in it all the time, still directly over the navicular bone. Fleshy area around the bone is sore/tender. Pressing on the navicular bone causes pain. Any weight bearing/walking causes a sharp pain on the bone with every step. Running hurt so bad that I had to stop.

    It is slightly puffy in that area compared to my other foot. The pain has gotten worse so I'm assuming the injury got worse.

    What I've read about navicular stress fractures is that they are always misdiagnosed as tendonitis. I read up on the tendons in that area and the pain they talk about in tendonitis is not in the same location that I'm feeling my pain.

    Why would I have pain on my bone if it is not a bone related injury?

    But anyways that's all the symptoms I can think of for now. If you've had this type of injury PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me out because my doctor is trying to tell me it's nothing. It's not "nothing" because it's starting to get in the way of even my daily life. I'm not okay with giving up running but until I find out, it's what I have to do. But I don't think it's fair to say this is "nothing" if I can't even make it to class on time because it hurts too bad to walk quickly. I need some help from someone who knows. Thanks! Please help me

  • Guys...If I'm a female, what should I wear with my sneakers?

    So I'm getting more and more into buying sneakers. Just bought the new Nike Kobe Christmas 8s! But I really like the look of wearing like black leggings with your sneakers for the whole cute but edgy thing (since you're wearing boys' shoes lol) but what would be good to wear with the black leggings/sneaker combo for a casual, comfortable setting like to class??

    I like crew neck sweatshirts a lot but I want some good places to get some or some brand names to check out.

    What other kind of tops should I check out? (remember I'm going for comfortable cute)

    Basically, what would you, as a male, like to see a girl wearing? What looks hot with sneakers?

  • Anyone selling Kobe 8 Christmas shoes?!?

    I am searching everywhere for these shoes & they're sold out everywhere. Ebay bids are getting really high and a LOT of people are after them.

    I need an 8 or 8.5 (Not sure if they fit small or not...I'll take an 8 if they are normal but 8.5 if they are snug)

    Willing to pay $250 tops but I would obviously prefer a lower price since Nike only asked $140 for them

    PLEASE let me know. Thank you!

  • Where can I buy the Nike Zoom Kobe VIII "Christmas" shoes?!?

    These shoes just got released yesterday and were literally selling out as I was clicking "add to cart" and now they aren't available practically anywhere that I know of and I REALLY REALLY REALLY want these shoes (+ I need new shoes!)...I found a few pairs on Ebay that seem legitimate, but they are all going for such a high price.

    Does anyone know of anybody selling a pair for a decent price? I'm willing to go above original listing price (Nike was asking about $140) for sure but not like, 400 like some ebay vendors are asking!!

    Or do you know of any legitimate sites that sell them and aren't sold out yet?

    I'm a girl so I'll wear a men's 8 or 8.5 probably (Anyone worn Kobe 8s & know if they run small? If they are snug I'll wear an 8.5 but if not then I take an 8)

    PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE someone let me know! I have to have them

    Thanks

  • Should I get checked out by a doctor? Fainting/possible concussion?

    So Monday around noon, I got back to my apartment after taking an exam. I checked my email, had a glass of water, sat around for a minute. Then as I was going to use the bathroom, the next thing I know I am waking up on my bathroom floor. I fainted. I was unconscious for about 2 minutes (I based this off of when I sent my last text message, which was immediately before going to the bathroom).

    As I was coming to consciousness my body was doing these weird convulsions/twitches, and I had a LOT of confusion. I thought somehow that it was a weekend and that I drank too much alcohol and was just really drunk. Then I convinced myself that I was still in bed and that I slept through my exam (even though I had already taken it).

    I know that I fell from a standing position, and I know that I landed really hard and smacked my head. Because when I woke up I had a LOT of pain on the back of my head and a throbbing headache. My back was hurting me as well, presumably from the fall.

    I had no one to call to help me or anything, so I just kind of slept it off for a few hours, but I am not feeling any better.

    I still have a really bad headache, a sensitive spot on the back/side of my head where it hit, I am nauseous, I am irritable, still have no recollection of the events surrounding my fainting, and my ENTIRE body hurts right now. I'm SO weak and shaky. The front of my neck (like around my jugular) is especially sore and weak. It's like my head is too heavy and my neck can't support it. Overall I feel a lot like I am just extremely, extremely hungover!! That's the best comparison I can think of. It has been about 15 hours since passing out + hitting my head and I feel just as bad now as I did immediately after.

    So with the headache, nausea, confusion, dizziness, weakness, etc., is it possible that I have a concussion??? I just don't really have anybody here to help me so I need answers.

  • How can I tell if my vagina is still tight?

    So I lost my virginity back in April (so about 8 months ago). I can pretty much count each time since then I have had sex. Two times, then a 4 month break, then about 12 times since then. So all in all I probably haven't even had sex more than 12 times. But the guys that I have been with have been pretty large.

    Does this mean I am loose? How can I tell if it is still tight or not?

    Because my old boyfriend who had to move is coming back into town in like March and I don't plan on getting with anyone else until then (and I haven't since he left in early Oct.) but I'm still afraid that I'm not tight anymore...

    I've heard the whole "try inserting two fingers. if this is easy for you, you're loose" but like, I could do that when I was a virgin....so that's not a true test.

    I've heard to try kegels to "tighten up" but I just don't feel like that will even work unless someone can prove to me by experience that it does.

    Can someone just tell me what a "tight" vagina should look like if you're just sitting there with your legs open? Like will you be able to see slightly into it as it parts ever so slightly? Or will a tight vagina be completely shut off and not even part open a little bit?

    Helpppp I don't want to be thought of as a ho because of my vag!

  • Bruises on breast? Cancer?

    So I tried googling things and I couldn't really find what I was looking for. So within the last couple weeks I've noticed some strange bruising on the top of my left breast. The first bruise area lasted a while before it faded slightly and is now just a yellow bruise. Not too long after I noticed the fading, I noticed I now I have an even larger, nastier bruise about a centimeter to the side of the old bruise.

    I have not run into any (very tall) sharp corners, been hit, or had any force on my breast. I do not drink so there is no chance of me perhaps stumbling and just not remembering. The bruises just showed up.

    I tried to feel for lumps, but (sorry if this is too much information) I have pretty large breasts and, as we all know, breasts are fat, and fat feels lumpy...so I can't really tell if there is a lump or if it is just a part of my breast...

    I read that a sign of breast cancer is an inverted nipple. I don't know if my mind is playing tricks on me, but it appears that my left one is starting to point downward more than my right one.

    Also I read that the most common spot for breast tumors is on the upper left breast, which is where I have bruising. Some women's accounts of their cancer mentioned a random bruise show up above the cancerous tumor.

    Can anyone who has ever experienced breast cancer or has a knowledge on breast health maybe give me some insight as to why I'm bruising so badly? Should I do anything further from here like see a doctor?

  • Can you use a fleet enema while menstruating?

    If I need to use a fleet enema but I am on my period, is that going to affect anything? Like some weirdo water absorption thing in my vagina? Cause more period bleeding? Or will anything different happen at all? Thanks

  • Where can I design my own (not group order) spirit football jersey (J470 shirt)?

    Does anyone know where you can make custom design spirit football jerseys? They make a lot for sororities but I am actually quitting my sorority, and I want one that says maybe my school name or something on the back instead. I've tried nearly everything to find a site but...no such luck. So if you can name a site that will actually work and will let me design my OWN, then you win!

    I have really bad black heads on the end of my nose and around my nostrils. I clean my face regularly with a gentle cleanser, I do a scrub when necessary, I drink plenty of water, and I use biore strips every so often as well. I even use a face mask.

  • Can you help me with my tumblr?

    Alright so I just started getting more into tumblr and I found a theme that was pre-made (so I didn't make my own) and all is good so far except a few things.

    1. Since it was pre-made, the creators put an image of a girl where I should have MY picture and i don't know how to get mine there. I found in the html code where they placed it, but how do I make my picture into that code form to show up on my theme?

    2. Is it possible to change the colors? I already tried playing around with those little color boxes under customize and it didn't do anything. If I just look at a color chart and change accordingly in the html code will that work?

    3. How do I get my links to work...Example: a "pictures of me" or "message" link. Right now if you click on them, it just says "page can not be found".

    Hope someone can help me! Thanks a ton!

  • How selective is the Disney College Program?

    I applied for the Disney College Program for the Florida location yesterday. Within a couple hours, I got notification that I can do the web-interview. I haven't done it yet and was planning on doing it this weekend. I know that once you finish the web interview they notify you whether or not you get to do the phone interview, then from there you are told whether or not you got in.

    So my question is...

    How big are my chances of getting accepted??

    I have a 3.9 GPA and consider myself a big people person who absolutely LOVES Disney World (been there over 15 times haha).

    If i'm passionate and express how much I want to do it, will that be enough? Because I usually have the worst luck in the world and nothing ever works out for me

    So someone who has done the program before, could you tell me a little bit more about the selection process? I'm really really nervous and will be crushed if I don't get in, so please help me out :( thanks a ton!

  • I cheated SO BAD on my diet all day today...what do I do now?

    Well today I did not eat well. It started off okay but went downhill when I went out for dinner and a movie with my family..here's what I ate

    Lunch: A lean cuisine (acceptable)

    Snack: a handful of pretzels and a banana (acceptable)

    Movies: bag of starbursts and ate a ton of my mom and sister's popcorn (NOT OKAY)

    Dinner: a chili spaghetti "three way" with cheese and a bowl of oyster crackers (NOT OKAY)

    I worked out before the movies though by doing 40 minutes on the elliptical but i know this isn't enough to justify how badly I ate...

    What's going to come of this? WIll I gain weight? Did I ruin the diet? HELP!!!!

  • Do you think that hypnosis works?

    I know someone who is "specialized" (for lack of a better word) in hypnotizing people...I've heard it used for people with depression and other mental health issues and also for people trying to lose weight. Do you think if I got "hypnotized" to not be so obsessed with food and to love exercise and to not give up all the time then I'd be more successful with weight loss? I'm desperate
