My ring finger and pinky have been numb for 2 weeks! Any idea's on what's going on?
You should see a doctor. I have had both arms operated on for ulnar nerve, cubital tunnel syndrome. Although I had a lot of other problems, my ring fingers and pinkys were numb. I couldn't touch the inside of my elbow, where your funny bone is. It eventually got so bad, I would wake up at night and couldn't find my arms, they were completely numb. Get it checked out and treated now, before it gets too bad. Good luck
Sounds like you might have a pinched nerve. Better get it looked at.
That's a pretty vague question b/c the source of nerve irritation could be anywhere from your wrist all the way up to your brain. Did you hit your elbow or arm on something? Are you taking any meds that affect your nervous system? Do you have any brain issues - eg - trauma, diagnosed cancer? Did you hurt your back in any way?
I'd suggest seeing your primary about this and make sure you give him/her a good history of yourself. Don't leave things out b/c you may think it's irrelevant.

My ring finger and pinky have been numb for 2 weeks! Any idea's on what's going on?
My right testicle is the size of a grapefruit what should i do?
my left one is the size of a peanut. is this normal?My right testicle is the size of a grapefruit what should i do?
I have heard of this before and you do need to go see a Doctor. Don't stop at Go or receive 200 dollars. Go ASAP.
you have a tumor - looks like that nut's a goner
go to the doctors right now
I don't like grapefruit.. peanuts are good though..
let it explode you moron get the hell to the dr.
You poor guy. The size of a peanut? That's terrible. The other one sounds normal.
Dude... KILL YOURSELF!
see a doctor...NOW! What are you waiting for? GO!! That is NOT normal. If it was, you would not have asked "is this normal?"! Are you at the doctor's office yet?
I just want some points so I'm answering and you are just wasting points asking stupid questions.
Ask "yo MaMa"
You should most def see a doctor. It could be any number of things, but nothing fun makes 'em swell like that son! Go see a doctor. Oh, and you should pray too! If they were both one size or another, it wouldn't be so bad, but. Whew! So, to recap, a board certified medical doctor, and prayer to the diety of your choice! Good luck with the jewels Kid!
Sounds like you over due for a PSA level check.
My right eye is foggy, what could be the reason to why?
I wear glasses, and my right eye is foggy but when I blink fast it goes away, and when I blink again it returns to a foggy blurry state. what should i do?My right eye is foggy, what could be the reason to why?
i would rinse your eye out first, easyest way to do that is take a shower, and turn it down to a soft spray and look into it.
if that does not clear it up, i'd call an eye doctor, there may be other things going on.
Did you wash your face when you got up this morning? It sounds like you had sleep in your eyes floating around.
My psychiatrist says im delusional with borderline personalty?
what does this mean am i mentalMy psychiatrist says im delusional with borderline personalty?
Whenever someone throws a term like this at you, ask them to explain in language you can clearly understand.
Yes, it is a serious mental illness but with hard work you can overcome it.
For more information, go to the website for the National Institute of Mental Health. Based on some of the questions you have been posing on Y/A, it sounds as if your psychiatrist has come up with a meaningful diagnosis.
The real question is: What are YOU going to do to make yourself better? Mental illness isn't different than any other illness. You have to take medications and do other things to improve your situation.
Okay, Posi, now's the time to take some positive steps.
That's a question you really should ask the psychiatrist. You'll get some replies from arm chair doctors here, but why don't you make a list of questions to take with you on your next doctor visit. In the meantime, you can find much information on the internet.
A psychiatrist what do they know they get paid to say stuff like that. Do you think you're mental? If no, you're probably not.
I talked to a psychiatrist once, he was the son of the most prominent psychiatrist in our city.
we got to talking about psychiatrists, and he said most psychiatrists he knew became psychiatrists because they were screwed up mentally and wanted to learn why.
Years later, his reknown psychiatrist father, was arrested for child molestation.
I think psychiatry is very limited in it's use and effectiveness
My problem is addiction to clean my ear everyday using metal ear cleaner and my ear waste turned liquid.How?
I think I suffered middle ear infection because of my bad habit of cleaning my ear. And my ear waste became liquid everyday and sometime when I don't clean my ear, I had hearing problem because my ear were full of the waste but had turned to be in hard kind of form.My problem is addiction to clean my ear everyday using metal ear cleaner and my ear waste turned liquid.How?
The liquid is what becomes ear "wax." It isn't a waste product exactly, it is important stuff.
If it is drying out, you probably have either tiny scratches inside your ear leaking small amounts of blood into it, or a bacterial infection.
Never, Ever use a solid object to clean your ear. Even Q-tips are a bad idea even tho that is their intended purpose.
Safe cleaning of the ear is done with liquids, usually hydrogen peroxide solutions or warm saline water.
You should make an appointment to have them checked for infection, and get them cleaned at the doctor's office. You may need an ointment to help heal scratches or eliminate a minor infection anyway.
It does sound like an infection. I think you should see a dr.
What the??
My poop is way too thick to go down the whole in any toilet (including the ones in hotels). Why?
I end up having to chop it up with a hanger. I poop everyday so it is not like it is building up--also I dont eat that much. Does anyone know if they sell some kind of grinder I can put in the toilet to mash up the poop. A portable one would be great if you know of one. What can I do? This is getting rediculous! Does anyone else have this problem??My poop is way too thick to go down the whole in any toilet (including the ones in hotels). Why?
You are eating too much roughage, bran and that is bulking up the stools.
That's gross

are you serious, not being rude, just dont know how to take this
My pinky keeps twitching, why?
It keeps spasming and my foot is cramping up in the middle... what causes that and how can I help stop it?My pinky keeps twitching, why?
Benign twitches (not caused by disease or disorders)
Often affect the eyelids, calf, or thumb
Normal and quite common, often triggered by stress or anxiety
A diet deficiency
Drug overdose (caffeine)
Drug side effect (such as diuretics, corticosteroids and estrogens)
Exercise
It's normal. Have you been doing pinky exercises? lol
maybe it's the nerve in your pinky well I think it's normal
i once heard that when your muscles cramp, they are either flexing, or they just need to be stretched, so they start twisting or yeah...
anyways, when you get cramps in your foot, stretch your foot. curl your big toe and then lift it as much as you can. repeat it and the cramp should go away. that works for me.
