It started when I peeled off a bit of skin around my thumb about a week ago. The area turned red and I just thought the skin was a bit irritated. I had pain only when I touched it, otherwise I didn't feel anything. I have been cleaning it in hydrogen peroxide and putting neosporin on it since yesterday and there is significantly less pain when I touch it but now there is a bit of yellow under my fingernail. I read about how it can lead to Sepsis if untreated. The yellow under the nail just started today. I'm going to the doctor tomorrow. Are there any other remedies I can use? Also, I felt dizzy and weak and saw green everywhere yesterday in the shower, could this somehow be related. Heart rate/breathing rate is normal and so is my temperature. Could this be serious?

My Geometry teacher is really strict on her homework policy. If you are absent, you have one day, regardless of how many days you missed, to complete the make up work. I have some assignments from about a month ago that I just did. On those days, I had eye therapy. She said she can't accept it since it's been a month. But we had 2 weeks of standardized test prep and another 2 weeks of the standardized testing itself. My teacher for some strange reason, treats and views all of her students the same, regardless of their grades in the class or how many times they get in trouble. I'm a pretty good student though. So how can I convince her to accept my late work. Oh and I have a doctor's note.

Okay so i'm 13 and I have this problem every night I usually fall asleep around late 1 am or so. During holiday breaks I sometimes stay up until 3 am. I don't know why. Before school, I'm always like "I'm going to sleep early tonight cause i'm so tired" but then I completely forget about it. I've had it for like a year now. I don't have any problems at home or at school. The only reason I do stay up is really to be on the computer or my phone or iPad. It's really tempting and I end up staying up until 1 am to talk to friends or play games and listen to music. How can I fix my sleeping problem without taking medications or seeing a doctor?

Today i was walking and there was water spilled all over the floor, I slipped and fell on my right side of my body and the flooring was linoleum. This happened about 1 pm today and there is this point on my leg that has a slight ache. It's 5 inches below the hip sort of on the thigh it has a mild ache when i bend down and a small ache when I walk however there is no ache when I was bike riding. I looked online and I found out the femur bone is there. The ache is slightly to the back and there is no bruise. Did I break my bone and is this serious? What should I do?

Okay I'm on vacation right now and today I played a lot of golf. I just started playing a month ago and I don't practice too much. But I did play a lot of it today and now my heart beat is very high!! I started playing about 12 hours ago and it was nice and cool and I had occasional sips of water. I have a few muscle aches but they are not bad. However my heart is beating FAST (over 100 bpm) since I finished and I've been to the pool and relaxed and ate but it's still fast. I can't fall asleep cause Im scared and I feel weird like my body feels tired. I have had this kind of thing happen about 8 months ago when I was in karate. My parents checked my heartbeat and they say it's fast but they said I'm fine. Also, when I open my eyes now after dozing off its sort of dizzy. I'm 13 and I don't take any meds and I don't drink any energy drinks. Can someone tell me what I should do????

Okay It's been about a month and a half since I got my new iPhone 4s and I'm getting more problems!!!!! I already experienced some issues with "Find My iPhone" in MobileMe and it has frozen several times. Now my problem is that NOTHING will load. It won't load Facebook, Safari, Google Searches, even Siri isn't working. I did a temporary solution to the problem by restarting the phone. I did go to the Apple Store and they did a diagnostic and they said everything was fine. My software (5.0.1) is up to date, and the phone has never been dropped and it never fell. Please tell me what I should to cause None of my news apps, internet searches, and most other apps WILL NOT LOAD.

I really miss the old classic animated shorts from the 20th century and I want to know if there is some way to buy them. The Disney Channel stopped showing these old cartoons and practically they don't make cartoons really anymore and I really liked the old Disney. I am going to Disney World in Florida in a week so is there a place that I can buy them there like at Disney's Hollywood Studios? Are there any other stores/websites that sell the old classic cartoons?

I got my iPhone on the 25th of November this year and it's the new 4s. It was shipped to me via UPS from Dallas because they ran out at the AT&T store. It hasn't even been a month and i'm already experiencing a bunch of problems. When I first got it, there was an issue setting it up and I couldn't set it up online and the AT&T support and setup couldn't really do anything and they guys at the AT&T store had issues with it too but they got it to work. Then, about a week or so ago, I was asking Siri what tomorrow's temperature will be and all of a sudden it freezes and I try to turn it off but I had to force it and get it back from recovery mode. I also have a cell signal issue. My old iPhone 3G had a low signal but my new iPhone 4s has not improved even though I was told that the signal was improved. I also have problems with "Find my iPhone" on MobileMe. I left my phone somewhere and I thought it was either at my friend's house or at my house so I went on MobileMe and it told me "No location available". I did a test run with it and gave the phone to my mom when she went to the store and it mostly said "No location available" or it gave me a location 3 miles from the store. It also gave me an "update" that showed the current time but it was actually where my phone was over 30 minutes ago. WHATS IS WRONG WITH IT??? If this helps: I am the only person who ever used it, the hardest impact it ever got was falling onto a pillow from a height of 5 inches or so, it works with the graphics and loading just fine, there is no hardware damage on the outside at all, it is not jailbroken, and when it was shipped, there was a ton of air-bad thingys and Styrofoam protecting the phone.

I was outside walking on this Nature Trail and I stepped over some brush and leafs on the ground. I was looking the other way and all of a sudden I feel something on my foot. I saw a dark-reddish sort of snake on my leg and I kicked it off and ran home. I did not feel any pain and I don't feel any now. This happened about 10 hours ago. I have been checking my leg throughout the day and I don't feel or see anything of a bite. There are no marks and no swelling. I feel fine. I read that some snakes can bite and you don't feel anything. Well I don't see any bite marks. Did the snake actually bite me? Also this is in Florida.

Well yesterday, I was outside from 10am to 5pm playing lots of soccer and riding bikes and running. It was really hot outside and I didn't really drink a lot because I wasn't thirsty but I did drink a lot when I came home. I also took occasional 20 minute breaks inside to cool down. But my heart rate was a little faster than normal since yesterday. It was not an intolerable level and not really noticeable until I counted my heart rate. It still is like this today. My normal heart rate is usually between 65 and 85 beats per minute but when I counted now I got between 97 and 107 beats per minute. Should I be concerned? Also important, I am 13 years old

Okay so yesterday I was sparring in Martial Arts and I got kicked about 3 to 4 inches below the belly button. At first I had a slight warm feeling there then it became sort of cool and while I rested for about 2 minutes the pain went away mostly. Then I got another opponent and during the whole sparring session which was about 4 minutes I did not at all feel uncomfortable. When I got home I didn't have any pain at all when I moved, just when I pressed on the area that was impacted. My urine was yellow and clear like normal and this morning I did a normal poop. I haven't had to poop since this morning but I peed about 5 times. I don't have any problem when running, bending, or breathing just when I press on the area of impact. It's a little more sore towards the left. Am I okay or do I have a ruptured bladder?

I have been having a repeated thought since December last year and I would always repeat it in my head. It was because in December I almost had an accident with ammonia and bleach and I got really freaked out about it. I told myself to stop thinking it in June and the thought stopped for several weeks until something reminded me of it again. If I am doing something fun like talking to friends or presenting a powerpoint or just occupying myself with something then it goes away. But usually when I'm bored or not thinking about it it goes away. When I play a video game the thought worked it's way into the music but I told myself to stop and just whisper da-da-da-da-da or like the melody goes and now I don't have to whisper it, the melody plays without the thought. Usually when I talk about it, it stops or gets majorly reduced. I had a similar thing 2 years ago when a house burned down nearby and I was super freaked out about little crackling noises at night but it went away now and I'm like wow why would I repeat it. If I tell myself not to say it I feel more relaxed and forget about it easily. When I was on vacation recently, I only thought about that thought 3 times during the whole thing and just forgot about it. If it helps, I am good in academics and I am able to visualize a story or other things like characters or anything that is described to me and I love having an imagination. Do I have OCD or am I just going through the "Awkward Phase"???

So I took on movie making as a hobby and have made small videos for youtube. I would like to know if this is legal: I want to make a short film using a Mickey Mouse plush toy and a Pluto plush toy. Here is a video I made 1 year ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0tjfLnNo-4 . I know it's kinda beginner but I want to use better equipment now and I have more knowledge. I will NOT make any profits on this movie I just want to put it on youtube as a tribute to Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse. Again I will NOT make profits

So 4 days ago, I was in Karate Class and my instructor was doing some reaction drills and he told me to not flinch and he hit me near my chest but not hard. I have NO chest pain or breathing problems. The pain went away in like 5 seconds but all night my heart was beating really fast. I felt kind of nervous, too. Yesterday, my heart seems to beat regularly and I don't have any pain near my heart or on the chest. Why was my heart beating fast? Was it because I was worried or was it an adrenaline rush because it seems to beat normal now. I think my instructor knows what he is doing because he has been doing it for over 25 years but am I okay?

Ok so these new neighbors moved in right across from our house and they have like 4 dogs. I think they keep them outside all night because one little sound and all of them start to bark and wont calm down for another 10 minutes. It's all night they bark and bark and bark. I've never even seen the person who lives there I don't even know what they look like or their name. I can't sleep and I want them to be quiet because I have exams soon. Is there any way to get them to stop. Oh and their patio has a screen so I can't throw them chew toys or bones

I have a vaultz cash box that I recently bought. It was $20 which is a little pricy for something it's size. It looks really thick and has this layer of I don't know what it is but it's pretty hard. Most of the frame is metal and I want to know if it is fireproof since I keep some precious and valuable items in there. If I keep it not far from the ground where it's always cooler in a fire, will it be safe? If so, how long for?

Is there a period of wait time or a period of time where the same collection of numbers (lets say: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12) can't be called again for some time even if it goes 4, 8, 12, 2, 6, 10 or any other order. If there is a period of time, how long is it for the same number order to come up even if it's coincidental.

Okay so I was sparring in Karate class today with a brown belt (I am a orange belt), and we both had our sparring gloves on and I missed blocking his punch and it hit me in the stomach. I felt some pain (not strong pain) for about a minute and then I felt a little better and it does not hurt when I apply pressure or when I drink water or anything. It seems a little upset though now (but my mom and brother recently had a stomach virus, and I had a sore throat before karate class) I have no trouble breathing and when I got hit, I did not have any trouble breathing, I did not collapse, just some pain for a minute or two. Am I okay

I've been recently thinking and doing research about what autism and Asperger's are. Now that I know some information about them, I have the feeling that I may have Asperger's. Here is what I am like:

~I have 1 friend and I find him more normal then the other kids in my school

~I like to paint a picture in my mind when I read the book or kind of set a scene like in a movie

~I find lots of people in my school strange because of why they listen to rap, do jerking, use so much profanity, chew gum while having braces, joke around about liking someone, average grades,

~They for some reason find me weird

~I sort of like to brag

~I like to be organized in my typing, and I seem to catch most of my mistakes and tend to write more maturely and don't make too much mistakes. I see the design and I always have it really nice and organized.

~I am in Algebra 1 Honors

~I have had attraction to other girls before and I have asked them out

~I just really like to watch Disney shows like Wizards of Waverly Place, Suit Life, etc.

~I am really good when it comes to martial arts

~I am really good at acting

~I only relate to calm, quiet, mature, nice, caring, and easy going people

~I have a really big issue when my parents move furniture when I made it perfect, I once cleaned my room and did not sleep in it until the family member came to show her how well I kept it clean

~I have occasionally a phobia like if a house in my neighborhood burned down I would be scared of every crackling sound and would be relieved when someone was awake

~I don't like wild parties too much, I like to go to receptions or parties where adults are socializing, there is gourmet food, comedy show, etc.

~I kind of seem to brag a lot so that people don't think I am poor or anything

~I don't find Mickey Mouse Clubhouse or any other Disney Junior, Nick Jr., etc. show to be childish, and I don't mind watching it when I am sick or in bed or it's just on during break from school

~I also like to watch shows like Jersey Shore a little and some game shows like Deal or no Deal, Millionaire, Family Feud, etc.

~I find it weird for my classmates to always hang at the mall and do nothing else buy mall, sleepover, and wild stuff

~I am not the smartest, and I am not the dumbest and I am not average, I have good intelligence but I get distracted a lot.

~I am not really into body building, just I do Karate, bike, fishing, sometimes tennis, sometimes basketball, i'm not a couch potato but I don't build abs or stuff like that

~I like to read The Kingdom Keepers and imagine what it's all about

~I like to make up some weird names to call my brother

~I sometimes laugh weird and I can do a good impression of Goofy but I laugh normally when something is funny

~I am really good with the computer

~I type fast

~I like to think about stuff or how I can solve something if a situation continues

~I like to imagine and have my own little world which is just like the real world but with frogs who walk and talk but if I don't concentrate or I think about a detail like what the airline or whatever is called, my imagination characters become human

~I don't imagine too much anymore though, a little less now

So am i just different or what??

Back in November, I was playing basketball and got injured. My grandmother who was 5,000 miles away from me felt a sudden feeling of pain when I got injured. I know she was not messing with me since I did not yet tell her what time and what day. When she told me about it, the times matched and she did not know what happened, she felt it when she was sitting on a couch watching TV. No one else but me or my coach knew the time that this injury happened so no one else was able to tell her. Is this some kind of connection or something since I also sometimes have back pain when she does, not always just sometimes. I am not lying or being funny.
