Hello
Question on hamstring/back of knee pain?
Multiple occasions, I have had pain and a pulling feeling behind my knees along the back of my leg. Nothing to do with my knees more so the muscle there...
I run a lot, and am in season for Track and Field. I do strenuous distance running and cannot afford an injury. I also am a Varsity cheerleader and jumping and stretching my hamstring often affects the muscle. I will have pain for about five days and deal with it.
Any ideas? Stretches? Relief? Should I take inflammation pills?

Sounds crazy, I know. But our biology teacher told us if we bring something with mold/algae/moss on it, we could look through the microscopes at it...test it...etc. or just sit around. I have two sitting in a open bowl of water, they were a little old already. Any tips or ideas will be accepted(:
Thank you(:
2 AnswersOther - Food & Drink9 years agoIs my hair changing? Why?
A little history - My dad had blonde hair when he was younger, and it changed to a dark brown at about eleven. My mom has always had brown-red hair.
I've always hated my blonde hair, I guess it makes me feel out of place in my family. My mom tells me I got the "witt" gene from her side of the family. I believe her...If I didn't look like her, I would've thought I was adopted.
My hair slowly started to get brown in it, when the sun hits it looks red, but the main color is still blonde. About a month ago, my hair started falling out, not like drastic amounts, but enough to where it was noticeable to me. I've been using Redken "super soft" given to me by my cosmetologists, so I know I'm using the right kind. My hair is SUPER thick and it seems like all the hair loss isn't effecting it...
I've come up with the idea that it's just a bunch of hormones, and my hair is changing. I'm 15. Do you think I could be right? Or is it more serious? My hormones are kind of crazy right now so that was just what I figured...
3 AnswersHair9 years agoIs ignoring him the right thing to do? Or should I tell him?
My lover and I used to call each other every night and talk for two hours or more on the phone, text non stop, and after a speed agility camp I went to, it stopped. He didn't answer my text during the day, so I didn't answer his phone calls at night. So the communication was going on a all time low for us.
When I finally answered a call from him his exact words were "Sorry I've been out of it lately." I could understand it, since his mom might of had cancer. But he's been doing it before he found that out. I just wasn't understanding.
The other night I walked with him and his friend to the snowcone stand, and I also brought along my golden retriever.
And after this finally getting to hang out after 2 months, he still failed to answer my texts. So I stopped texting him, stopped calling him, stopped poking him on facebook. Its been day two, and go figure, he hasn't noticed. He text me last night around 2, and I didn't answer. I'm hoping he'll get the point that it's hurting me, really bad. He even told me once, "If you just stopped, and wouldn't tell me what was wrong...I'd break down in tears" I don't want him in tears...I just want him to know..
help?
5 AnswersSingles & Dating10 years agoWhat in the world am I supposed to do?
So I'm like totally, helplessly in love with this guy. It was a crush way long ago. And now I just can't seem to get over him! And every time I'm close, he tries to step right back into the picture again.
For example:
His parents won't let him text after nine. He got an app on his ipod so he could talk to me until like 11 every night.
Then, when I'm in person, he'll talk to all these other girls. I'll text him angry. He just keeps texting me until I'm not mad anymore.
Today:
He hasn't talked to me in like a week, and we're at initiation for high school. Well he makes his friend stand beside me instead of him having to. Then I go back to school ((its a half day)) and he looked at me a couple times but did nothing. So after a while I left ((Boring!)) Not even twenty minutes later he texted me "Where r u?" I replied, "At home" then he says, "Ah, shot down,"
What do I do? He's such a jerk, but I can't help but fall for him...over and over again.

8 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoWhat the heck is wrong with me?!?!?!?
This Christmas, I finally got over this guy I've liked since I can ever remember ((I NEVER liked anyone else!!)) So I stopped obsessing over here, and someone else tried to talk to me. I talked to them, smiled, flirted, but I didn't feel a thing, soon I got mad at him and we broke up.
Now comes another guy and he really really likes me, and we talk every day, and I want to like him, but I can't!!!! That other guy I used to like, he's out of my head, but its like when I shut him out, I shut out the rest of the world, and I didn't want that to happen!!! HELP??
3 AnswersSingles & Dating1 decade agoIs he the wrong kind of guy for me?
Ok so I'm recently talking to this guy from twenty minutes away, and he seems alright. He knows my family, his looks are pretty good, he's a good height, and a baseball player. I've been talking to him for about a week and a half when one of the few friends I have that know him come up to tell me he's weird and down right ugly. Well first of all, I know this friend might be pretty, but her taste is down the drain, but I know her weird judging is about right.
I am a cheerleader at our school, and am also known for my amazing running, and writing. So I have a reputation. I've been single for a while now, and people look to me as a very independent, strong person. But would all this change if I date someone "weird" even if I have figured out they are just another nice person? How do I find this out? What should I do?

2 AnswersOther - Health1 decade agoMy cold is getting worse?
I think it's the flu. But I had a flu shot??
Sunday night it was snowing and I just got out of the shower, but I wanted to take pictures. So I ran outside in shorts, bare feet, and wet hair. I came inside about thirty seconds later.
Monday. School started at 10am and I made it through half the day before I started experiencing my first symptoms: I was cold. All day, and I couldn't get rid of it. I kept coughing, and it wouldn't stop. My legs ached badly.
Tuesday, I stayed at home with a temperature of 100.4 my symptoms got worse. Mom gave me an
advil and it brought my temperature down to a 97.6. I couldn't get any sleep during the night.
Wednesday, my temperature was risen to 103.4 and the average was 102.5 my throat began to ache and hurt when I talked, I was leaning on stuff to support me to walk, I got dizzy whenever I sat up, and the chills were even worse, so I layered myself in 10 blankets, including a comforter, and at the end of the day, I couldn't talk. My appetite was completely gone.
Today. I still couldn't sleep, and when I woke up I was seriously thirsty and went to get two water bottles, but when I drank my throat felt as if it was closed up. My body burned on the inside and the chills came back. I tried to say something, but even that hurt. Now I can't talk above a whisper, medicine is inaffective to me, and I can't sleep, not to mention my inability to eat.
Why is this cold getting worse???
4 AnswersInfectious Diseases1 decade agoHow to get better at running?
Ok I've been running ever since I was able to walk ((from what my mom says)) and I would cry when my mom would go outside to the golf course across the street and run without me, when my dad divorced her though, she couldn't leave me and my sister here. When I got outside, I showed the potential of a great runner, and when we didn't go, I would run in place in my room or run through my house ((its like a huge circle in the middle))
In 3rd grade I got a presidential medal for running a mile in 8 minutes, and I had strep throat. In fourth and fifth I kept running and thats when everyone started to notice me. In 6th grade I was the best runner in my class and the coaches loved me, and said that they would love if I ran cross country and track the next couple of years I was in middle school.
In 7th grade, I became the best girl runner in my school, my mile time a 6:32, and I was enjoying beating most of the guys. In cross country I placed first several times, and my placings were always below 10. Then came 8th grade and I had a horrible cross country season, for some reason I was giving up. I placed under 20 in every cross country race.
Track is coming up and I need the same feeling I had when I was little, I need to love the sport again. I already purchased some Spira's ((they're good running shoes, illegal in the olympics)) and I think I'm going to buy some juice that makes my energy go up ((always works)). How can I get better??
Thanks!
