Question 1

what will happen if you swallowed a piece of hair down the wrong way. mine or anyone else hair?

Accepted Answer

Mostly no harm: If the wrong way is the wind pipe, then your body will respond by coughing it out. If the wrong way is the food pipe, then it will go to the stomach and will end up out of the body through the stool. But ingesting large amount of hair (as in psychiatric patients) can lead to hair ball in stomach with subsequent obstruction.

can anyone tell me what causes chronic tension headache when a piece of scalp feels sore and tender?

Accepted Answer

Chronic Tension-type: Headache  can develop from episodic tension-type headache and the resultant headache is considered a chronic form. The clinical presentation is similar to episodic tth except for the increased frequency of attacks. The headaches are usually bilateral and diffuse and often have tenderness in the cervical muscles as well as the pericranial muscles.

Question 3

can anyone do a psych exam?

Accepted Answer

Yes and no.: There is nothing to prevent anyone with an interest from learning the basics of a pscyh exam.  Most of the questions are straightforward.  However, learning to interpret the results is why people spend years in training.  There are lots of screening tools for all sorts of mental disorders, but they are just screens.  If concerned, work with a professional.
