Question 3

how come everything stink to me?

Accepted Answer

Many causes: My teammate is right in asking that a sinus infection be ruled out as this is the one easily-treatable entity on the list. Most often, the cause of "dysosmia" (read about it online, there are good pages) is never found and it goes away on its own.

Question 4

i want to have fresh looking skinn?

Accepted Answer

Fresh skin: Use a broad spectrum sunscreen, a gentle liquid cleanser up to twice a day (assuming it doesn't dry out your skin).  If your skin is dry you can apply a light moisturizer at night.  There are no magic creams, but the biggest thing is avoiding sun damage.

Question 5

Question 7

why does my vision spin when i bend down?

Accepted Answer

Inner Ear/Vascular: Spinning vision is oscillopsia, suggesting positional nystagmus. Although clinically rare, neuroophthalmic consultation is recommended to exclude Arnold-Chiari malformation or arteriovenous malformation. Alternatively, possible positional vertigo from an inner ear problem: otolaryngology can be consulted. Possible idiopathic intracranial hypertension or vertebrobasilar insufficiency.

Question 8

what age do men start to shrink in height?

Accepted Answer

At elderly age.: Men, like women, can get osteoporosis, although it's much less common in men than in women.  And as such, men can get vertebral compression fractures which could cause them to lose height.  This would happen in elderly ages.

Question 9

why do i feel like i'm spinning when i move?

Accepted Answer

Vertigo: You are describing vertigo.  There are many causes.  Metabolic issues (like blood sugar), orhtostatic hypotension (low BP as you stand) visual problems, inner ear problems, TMJ problems, to name a few.  And many things cause all of these.  So, you need medical evaluation.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Leave it alone: If you are healthy do not worry about "fattening" yourself. In a few years you will start gaining weight and will look back fondly at these years when you could eat what you wanted and not gain weight. Do exercise regularly to improve your muscle mass.
