system: Why do children get ear infections so often?
output: Adults get them, too, but youngsters have them much more often. That's because they don't fight off viruses and bacteria as well, and their little ears aren't good at draining fluids yet.
system: How can I relieve ear infection pain?
output: Your doctor may recommend a pain reliever, typically acetaminophen ( Tylenol) or ibuprofen ( Advil, Motrin), which also helps reduce a fever. Aspirin should be avoided in children because of the threat of Reye's syndrome, a rare condition that can cause swelling in the brain or liver. Pain can also be reduced by using low heat from a heating pad. Be very careful using a heating pad with children.

system: How can I set realistic plans for exercising if I have diabetes?
output: But don't set goals you know you can't meet. If you've never been able to wake up early to spend an hour at the gym before work, that shouldn't be your plan now. Doctors recommend 30 to 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous activity almost every day, but you don't have to find time to do it all at once. Break it up into 10- or 15-minute sessions. And reward yourself when you meet your goals! Splurge on some new workout clothes, a massage, or more songs for your playlist.

system: What are some personality traits that someone with narcissistic personality disorder has?
output: Someone with narcissistic personality disorder might also: Think about himself most of the time and talk about himself a lot Crave attention and admiration Exaggerate his talents and achievements Believe he's special Set unrealistic goals Have wide, fast mood swings Have a hard time taking others' feelings seriously Strive to win, whatever it takes Fantasize about unlimited success, money, and power Someone like this may appear to have high self-esteem, but the opposite is probably true. There's a deep sense of insecurity underneath that grand exterior. He wants others to be envious, but often he's the jealous one. He's competitive and threatened by others' achievements. His relationships are often stormy and short-lived. He leaves a trail of hurt feelings in his wake. He's easily hurt, but either chooses to not show it or overreacts in rage. He can't stand criticism. He makes excuses and refuses to take responsibility for his flaws and failures. He sees himself as a natural leader who can easily sway others. He doesn't listen and often interrupts. It's a one-way street -- all take, no give.
system: What are treatments for narcissistic personality disorder?
output: There is no cure, but therapy can help. The goal is to build up the person's poor self-esteem and have more realistic expectations of others. There aren't drugs to treat this mental disorder, but depression and anxiety sometimes go hand in hand with narcissism, and there are helpful drugs for those conditions. If the narcissist abuses alcohol or drugs, which is common, it's important to get treatment for the addictions, too. With children, experts suggest that parents who give too much praise cut back, while those who don't pay enough attention step up. Narcissists can learn how to relate to others in more positive ways, but it depends on how open they are to critical feedback and how willing they are to change.
system: What might you see in someone with narcissistic personality disorder?
output: The word comes from a Greek myth in which a handsome young man named Narcissus sees his own reflection in a pool of water and falls in love with it. Sound like someone you know? Are people often upset with him? Is it hard for him to keep relationships? Does he tend put himself first and think he knows the only ârightâ way? Someone with narcissistic personality disorder might also: Think about himself most of the time and talk about himself a lot Crave attention and admiration Exaggerate his talents and achievements Believe he's special Set unrealistic goals Have wide, fast mood swings Have a hard time taking others' feelings seriously Strive to win, whatever it takes Fantasize about unlimited success, money, and power Someone like this may appear to have high self-esteem, but the opposite is probably true.
system: What are the causes of narcissistic personality disorder?
output: The exact cause is not known, but there are several theories. Many think it's a mix of things, from how the person handles stress to how he was raised. Parents who put their children on a pedestal and shower them with endless praise can plant a seed of narcissism, a recent study found. There's a line between being nurturing and supportive and inflating an ego. Then again, the opposite is true, too. Children who are ignored or abused tend to be self-centered almost as a survival instinct. They feel they need to look out for themselves because no one else will.
system: How is narcissistic personality disorder diagnosed?
output: Many professionals use the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, a list of 40 questions that measures things such as how much attention and power someone craves. Personality disorders are longstanding, ingrained, dysfunctional patterns of thinking, behaving and relating to other people that can show up as early as age 8, when children start to become aware of how people react to them. People with narcissistic personality disorder tend not to perceive that they themselves may have a mental health problem, and thus may be less likely to see evaluation or treatment. A recent study at Ohio State University says many people readily admit to being a narcissist. Researchers say they're probably proud of it and don't see looking out for No. 1 as a flaw. There aren't drugs to treat this mental disorder, but depression and anxiety sometimes go hand in hand with narcissism, and there are helpful drugs for those conditions.
system: How soon do birth control pills work?
output: When taken as directed, birth control pills are usually effective the first month you begin taking them. To be safe, some doctors recommend the use of another form of birth control, such as condoms and foam, during the first month. After the first month, you can just rely on the pill for birth control.
system: What are some points to keep in mind when taking birth control pills?
output: Keep another form of birth control, like spermicidal foam and condoms, on hand in case you forget to take a pill. Carry your pills with you if you don't always sleep at the same place. Take your pill at the same time every day. If you are using the patch, replace your patch weekly on the same day. If you are using the vaginal ring, remove it after three weeks of use and insert a new one 7 days later. Get your refills soon after you start the last prescription. Don't wait until the last minute to request refills. Birth control pills, patches, and vaginal rings are all medications. Always tell your doctor or pharmacist you are on the pill, patch, or vaginal ring if you see him or her for any reason.
system: What are mini birth control pills?
output: These are pills that contain only one hormone (progestin). They do not contain estrogen and may be prescribed in women who are breastfeeding or in women who experience nausea or other side effects of estrogen.
system: What should you consider about the side effects of birth control pills?
output: They include: Abdominal pain (stomach pain) Chest pain Headaches (severe) Eye problems (blurred vision) Swelling or aching in the legs and thighs Birth control pills that contain drospirenone, including YAZ and Yasmin, have been investigated by the FDA because of the possibility that they may cause an increased risk for blood clots. Drospirenone is a man-made version of the hormone progesterone. Other brands containing drospirenone include Beyaz, Safyral, Gianvi, Loryna, Ocella, Syeda, and Zarah. The results of the investigation are inconsistent. Some studies showed there was an increased risk while other studies showed no increased risk. The drugs are still available. A summary of the findings is contained on the packaging label. If you are taking a pill with drospirenone, talk with your doctor about your risk.
system: How does hormonal contraception work?
output: A woman becomes pregnant when an egg released from her ovary (the organ that holds her eggs) is fertilized by a man's sperm. The fertilized egg attaches to the inside of a woman's womb (uterus), where it receives nourishment and develops into a baby. Hormones in the woman's body control the release of the egg from the ovary -- called ovulation -- and prepare the body to accept the fertilized egg. Hormonal contraceptives (the pill, the patch, and the vaginal ring) all contain a small amount of man-made estrogen and progestin hormones. These hormones work to inhibit the body's natural cyclical hormones to prevent pregnancy. Pregnancy is prevented by a combination of factors. The hormonal contraceptive usually stops the body from ovulating. Hormonal contraceptives also change the cervical mucus to make it difficult for the sperm to go through the cervix and find an egg. Hormonal contraceptives can also prevent pregnancy by changing the lining of the womb so it's unlikely the fertilized egg will be implanted.
system: When do I start another birth control pill pack?
output: If you are on the 21-day pill pack, start the new pill pack seven days after you finished the old pill pack. If you are on the 28-day pill pack, begin the new pack after taking the last pill in the old pack. Start your new pill pack on schedule whether or not you get your period or are still having your period.
