How to deal with constipation? in Health ·
Make sure you finish the whole dose. Your digestion should settle down within a few days.

Some probiotic drinks containing bacteria found in the Federal Register might help you out. Just don't take them at the exact same time as your antibiotics.

Hmm, diuretics would just stimulate kidney function. Right?

Cirrhosis is essentially a terminal state. It’s basically just scarring, much like what you see on a piece of leather.

Why limit this to just kids? There are plenty of us adults who could use it too!

I remember an old American translation of a Michael Crichton book. There was this thing mentioned called "patoka." It involved pouring a heavy alcoholic spirit over some Aspirin placed on a piece of gauze. I haven't seen anything like that since, nor have I ever heard of it being a real thing.

Look, we don't have that on hand, but let's see what people have to say about it.
Justin Fox said:- tearing happens more often when pushing is forced. If labor progresses at a slower pace, following the woman's rhythm, and if the perineum is supported and lightly massaged, there is a lower chance of tearing.

- unfortunately, medical literature describes episiotomies as a good thing, but that is wrong. It's been proven in several clinical studies, yet those study results haven't made their way back into the mainstream literature.

Regarding the first point—that's incorrect. Massage doesn't help. If I recall correctly, this was published in the British Medical Journal based on research conducted in Australia.

As for the second point, it just doesn't make sense. 😵
If this turns out to be true, then we should just go with a lifetime ban.
Thoughts on dairy consumption? in Health ·

Because milk, as everyone knows, comes from plants. Self-replicating plants.

Fine, but how many years have you been at it?

Talk about being called out. 🤣
an American mathematician said:? what's your issue?

This is the second time you've asked me that. A projection?

Flu symptoms in Health ·
There are medications available, but I wouldn't recommend them for general use.

Honestly, just stay hydrated and wait for it to pass.
Blood-forming organs in Health ·
Lymphocytes aren't actually produced in the spleen.
Its role in blood storage for humans is pretty much negligible. You see it play a larger part in other animals—like dogs, for instance—but when it comes to people? Forget about it.

To build on what Helen wrote, the spleen is where aged red blood cells are broken down. Beyond that, it plays a vital role in the body's immune defense because that's where the immune response kicks off against invaders (like bacteria or viruses) circulating in the bloodstream. It’s particularly important because a specific group of white blood cells can only be found in the spleen, which is absolutely crucial for defending against certain types of bacteria.

In a healthy adult—the bone marrow is the core. The spleen and the liver serve as the reservoirs, along with the bone marrow, which is the final piece of the puzzle.

(NB: The thymus, lymph nodes, and spleen aren't blood-forming organs; blood cells don't typically originate there.)

It isn't.
Scott Allen10 said:Believe me, I'm telling you this from firsthand experience.

Sponsorships are often used as a cover for semi-private kickbacks that are honestly pretty disgusting—we're talking stuff like remodeling a kitchen, getting an AC unit installed in an apartment, free car services, trips to Rome, or all sorts of little and large household perks... you name it.

Wait, are you being serious? 😲 Have you actually seen a case where they've covered a whole kitchen or installed air conditioning?
