Poor eyesight
What is the difference between long-sightedness, astigmatism and macular degeneration?
At home due to panic attacks
Sometimes, I feel terribly stressed out and want to shout out loud. Other times, I feel breathless for a few seconds but my brain will be blank.
Painful heels
I feel a severe pain in the heel of my foot every morning when I wake up and put my feet on the floor.
Post-pregnancy hair loss
Hair loss peaks three to four months after delivery with up to 300 strands shed daily.
Hubby's right breast itches
The surrounding skin may be red or inflamed. There may be nipple discharge. Treatment for this condition would involve surgery and additional therapy may also be required.
Keep an eye out for those spasms
Instead of an omen of what is to come, twitching eye muscles could be a sign of poor health.
