If it goes in, it must come out. Should be easy, sometimes it isn’t, here are some helpful hints for both ends of the problem!

Are you really constipated? Advertisements over the years would have us believe that if we don’t have a bowel movement every day we are constipated. But we all vary greatly in what's normal for our bodies. Some move 3 times a day, some move 3 times a week. So don’t go by what someone else says, go by what is normal for you. If you experience significant changes in movements, pay attention

Are you getting enough fluids? Lots of fluids and dietary fiber are the 2 most significant things for a healthy colon. A minimum of six glasses of liquid per day, but preferable 8. Any fluid will do the trick but water is always

The baby cries, pulls his knees up to his abdomen, and appears to be in great pain. He may become gassy, then become quiet, then begin crying again. Not much seems to help, colicky babies cannot generally be quieted with feeding or a change of diaper and episodes can last for hours.

First it get red, then that itchy tingly area puffs out! Why me????? Cold sores are caused by the herpes simplex virus. In al likelihood, some relative of yours infected you when you were a child by kissing you at a time when his herpes simplex was infectious. The virus scooted right into your mouth and sought a hospitable host cell, probably a nerve cell that would let the virus move right in. The virus then ordered the DNA  in its host cell to make lots more viruses exactly like it. And

Sadly there is no cure, however there are things we can do to get through it more comfortably and maybe even shorten the length of the illness.
