Problem: Article: With the induction of the Affordable Care Act, health care plans must offer some types of preventative care free of charge. This includes cancer screenings, wellness checkups for women and children, and immunizations. These preventative methods can help you cut down on larger, and more expensive health problems later down the road. If you aren't sure which preventative care your insurance provides, visit your provider's website. Many employers are trying to control health care costs by offering wellness programs to their employees. These programs often lead to a lower insurance premium or other monetary incentives. The kinds of programs include: Health screenings of levels such as cholesterol and blood pressure. Completing a health risk assessment, such as a questionnaire. Taking part in physical activity programs or initiatives to quit smoking. Diabetes or weight management plans. Some insurance providers offer extra discounts if you use certain doctors, providers, or hospitals. Look into your insurance documents or ask an insurance representative if there are places near you. If you think you might be paying too much for health insurance, look into different insurance plans. This may be a different plan from the same provider that might suit you better or another plan from a different provider. Look into the details of your plan as well. You may find a better plan that will save you money in the long run, such as ones with a smaller deductible or a smaller copay.
Summary: Use preventative care. Take part in wellness programs. Look into extra discounts. Look into other insurance plans.

Problem: Article: Sometimes cold sores can become extremely painful, even leading to headaches and other related pains. Hold a hot water bottle or a bag of ice wrapped in a towel up to your lip for 20 minutes. The warm or cool temperature will help ease the pain. Creams and ointments containing benzocaine or lidocaine provide temporary pain relief. They're commonly packaged as anti-itch creams and are available in drug stores. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as aspirin and ibuprofen can reduce pain around your mouth and help relieve associated headaches. Follow the instructions on the bottle for proper dosage.
Summary: Apply a warm or cold compress. Use a topical anesthetic. Take a pain reliever.

Problem: Article: To spot a fake autograph, you'll need to be thoroughly familiar with the individual's real signature. The best way to become familiar with their signature is to examine many authentic examples of their signature firsthand. This will allow you to identify the actual size and style of the signature they typically produced. If you don't have any examples of an individual's signature available for direct inspection, check online for authentic examples. For instance, look at autographs of the individual in question that are sold in major auction houses or by collectibles dealers. Analyzing a large number of authentic signatures will also enable you to identify how variable someone's autograph might be. Try to find something unique about the autograph of the person you're interested in. For instance, Barack Obama always makes the leading letters of his first and last name ("B" and "O") very large relative to the sizes of the other letters. Look closely at your autograph and several authentic examples of the same individual's autograph. Look for discrepancies between the two. If the signature appears unnaturally shaky, this could be a sign of a fake. Other telltale signs of fakery could include: the width and length of individual letters the space between letters the position of dots in lowercase "J" and "I" the general style of the handwriting (does it use cursive, print, or some combination?) a dot in the middle of an individual character (this indicates the person stopped, then started the signature) If you're trying to spot a fake autograph, doing so is easier when it is included along with a handwritten letter or an inscription. Looking at a larger sample of text allows you to evaluate other handwriting elements. This additional writing sample can help you confirm the autograph's authenticity. In most cases, it's reasonable to assume that in authentic autographs, the individual in question knew how to spell their own name. If the autograph you're evaluating contains misspellings, it is likely a fake. If you're evaluating a baseball signed by the whole team or a production photo signed by the whole cast of a film, the individual signatures should all look a bit different. For instance, the pen or marker strokes should be of varying thicknesses. Some lines will be thick, while others will be thin. Some signatures will probably overlap. Items that have multiple autographs, all of which are of a uniform thickness, are probably fake.
Summary: Look at examples of the person's real signature. Compare your autograph against a real one. Look for other text. Ensure the signature is spelled correctly. Look for lots of variation in items with multiple autographs.

Problem: Article: If the problem tells you the diameter of the circle, it's easy to find the radius. If you are working with an actual circle, measure the diameter by placing a ruler so its edge passes straight through the circle's center, touching the circle on both sides. If you're not sure where the circle center is, put the ruler down across your best guess. Hold the zero mark of the ruler steady against the circle, and slowly move the other end back and forth around the circle's edge. The highest measurement you can find is the diameter. For example, you might have a circle with a diameter of 4 centimeters. A circle's radius is always half the length of its diameter. For example, if the diameter is 4 cm, the radius equals 4 cm 2 = 2 cm. In math formulas, the radius is r and the diameter is d. You might see this step in your textbook as r=d2{\displaystyle r={
rac {d}{2}}}.
Summary:
Check the problem for a diameter. Divide the diameter by two.
