How to publish an Article in the Yahoo health section? I want to know the process of submitting Article in Yahoo Health section.
yahoo health? my doctor wants me to take Fosamax for treatment of osteoporosis but I am not sure this drug is safe enough..anyone have any thing to say good or bad about this drug?
What happened to the Yahoo Health Quinolones adverse reaction message board? When I click http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/quinolones/ it now says the board no longer exists. It was a heavily used board.
How do I delete comment Mens Health yahoo comments? Delete a Mens Health comment from http://au.lifestyle.yahoo.com/b/mens-health/214/great-sex-advicesexual-myths/. I have posted a comment which I dont find suitable anymore. How can I delete the comment?
How can I get yahoo health to email me articles? Self explanatory question intended for people who have already gotten health to email you.
To people who post questions in Yahoo health:- Would you ask strangers in the street for health advice? What is the difference? I know that some people have difficulties getting medical care, but how is this a substitute for a doctor?
Why do "health nuts" on yahoo answers go over the top? OK all of you fucking people that answer my questions on yahoo answers about health are nuts. A. You think white bread makes you fat when in fact it is a LIE. Eating more calories than your body requires makes you gain weight not the food!!!! IDIOTS!
Why do people ask questions on Yahoo about serious health issues? Everyone who asks questions in this forum has internet access. With multiple search engines at their fingertips, and respectable websites full of reliable information, why do people ask questions about serious medical conditions and rely on the answers of others who are usually not experts? Some advice I've seen has been downright dangerous. On occasion that bad advice is actually chosen as a 'best answer'. What makes people use this forum rather than asking their own health care provider or seeking answers on reliable medical websites?
Yahoo health says that I may be suffering from major deperssion? I thought that I was doing better these days... what gives?
Should there be a required reading page before asking questions on yahoo mental health? Seriously I understand some are not as enlightened as others, but if you are asking about side effects to meds you will have obviously only a trial on yourself would reveal the answer, These are the questions that should be limited I think, as anyones advice to the contrary is simply an opinion whether educated or not, and could potentially stray someone away from a path they should have taken.
Why does everything in the Yahoo Answers Men's Health section have to be about penises? Seriously. Why don't they just call it Yahoo Answers > Health > Penis? It's insane. Do guys have any other health concerns? FYI, I am a guy. I'm not against males or anything. I understand reproductive organs and sexual health are important, but it does not seem like everyone is truly concerned about that. It's more like "My points points 2 degree left of center. What should I do?" or "How can I make my penis bigger" or "Will ____ make my penis bigger?".
Why doesn't Yahoo show a disclaimer/caution notice here in regard to answers given about health and medicine? So many people, especially women who are concerned they may be pregnant or have other health/medical conditions, post questions here on Yahoo Answers, looking for genuine answers if not advice to their health matters and problems. But although a lot of people mean well here on Yahoo Answers, not all answers given by people are always genuine/helpful as they can be misinformed, et cetera and I think it's always best (particulary with serious if not urgent) medical, health queries that persons arrange consultation with their doctor rather than resort to finding the answers on the internet. So shouldn't Yahoo Answers consider placing disclaimer or caution notices on here about what indeed may well be a better approach to getting answers on personal health matters offline, rather than risk any and usually unspecialised views/responses online?
Who agrees with an article on yahoo "Obama health care will stop insurer abuses? I agree Obama's plan will put an end to "supposed" insurance abuses. If you drive a business out of business then you don't have to worry about their abuses anymore. My question is what recourse do we have when (not if because it will happen) the government does the same thing or worse? The insurance companies can't confiscate your pay check like the government can. You can change insurance companies if you don't like them or drop them entirely, you won't have that option with the government because you will either be fined or jailed for failure to comply.
glittches on yahoo food, yahoo news, yahoo health and yahoo buzz? whenever yahoo refers to an unhealthy food as "the worst food" it is a glitch because the quality of a food should be based on taste, not on health. just because a tuna, cabbage, onion and sugar casserole is healthier than pizza or chinese food does not make it better.
Yahoo health says I am "high risk" due to my weight? I am 5'6 I weigh 110 and my waist is 24 inches. My BMI is 17.8. Yahoo health said I am high risk due to my weight. I think I am pretty healthy, but should I consider doing something about my weight or should I not worry about it?
What sub section in Yahoo groups under health so you think I should look in if I want to talk about sex? I have taken out some of the categories as they did not apply. I have narrowed it down to these. Advice Alternative Medicine Fitness and Nutrition Health Care Reproductive Teen Health Women's Health More Health & Wellness Categories
How can we get yahoo answers to open a new category for drug use questions alternative health is over 1/2 full? of these questions and many of the people who frequent that section are disgusted and upset over it. Why can't they open a category for drugs or is there one we could direct people too. Drugs tear the body down and alternative health is for healing not answering a bunch of illegal drug questions on how to get high etc. would yahoo answers do this since they rarely respond back to anyone..maybe they don't know alternative health section is being abused by these dope fiends.
Do you think the mental health section in yahoo answers should perhaps be closed? I am disgusted by the insensitive answers people give on there. I keep seeing questions about suicide and there are always the smart asses who actually give advice to perhaps mentally instable people about how to do it. It is completely immoral and wrong, even if noone is really thinking of suicide and just joking around. I dont know how any answers could ever be competent and i think that people dont realize what responsibility they assume on their shoulders when they respond in the mental health section. What do you think?
How do I place an ad to run next to Yahoo Groups > Health & Wellness? For example I'd like my ad to be on this page, and on pages for specific groups within this category. http://health.dir.groups.yahoo.com/dir/Health___Wellness
Why do people ask health questions on Yahoo answers,when most of the respondents are not authoritative? Would you ask a botanist a plumbing question? A plumber about best educational practices for Learning Disabled kids? A astronomer about how to user a bandsaw? No, of course not. You go to experts, if you are wise, for critical questions. But time and again I see people asking ordinary yokels (and giving them "Best answer" status for things that are plain wrong!
Is it crazy to have a Mental health category on Yahoo Answers? When you choose this category, shouldn't YA just respond 'See your doctor, first thing'?
Why do we need health insurance if we can get answers to all our health questions on Yahoo! Answers? Really..doesn't that just resolve the whole healthcare debate? Anti-reformers, I especially want to hear from you!

When do you think that you gonna end up in the Yahoo Mental health section? Asking for HEELP? :D cause so many Lunatics in the P&s section :D
Why does yahoo want to squander away our life health relationships jobs and famalies on this site? Yahoo has an alterior motive for yahoo answers, don't they? They get hits to the site for all of the navigating around, and they get to advertise to us. It takes a long time to develop a yahoo answers profile, build a bank of points, and for what? And all we get in return is a wasted life? Is this an unfair arrangement or what?
Yahoo Health groups load part way then stall? Yahoo Health Groups (only Health groups) load part way then stop. Background, Yahoo logo and banner ad download then it freezes. The msg in the lower left corner of Firefox usually says "Transmitting Data from spe.atdmt.com". Occasionally msg says doubleclick.net or other advertiser. Reloading the page sometimes helps but not always. This is a frustrating and irritating problem. Thanks for your help. PatM1_US@Yahoo.com
Is it true that Yahoo is changing the mental health section into the Italian mentality section? Funny its went very quiet? Unusual for them to be lost for words?
I tried to ask a question here and Yahoo put it in health? Why do they do this to us? I asked my question of people in the Yahoo Seniors and it was put in some other place where no one will even see it. I asked about anyone else having an out of body experience and did you tell anyone about it?
yahoo removed my important HEALTH question for no reason? yahoo removed my question about my health that was very important? I was quite insulted. it seems its ok for people to ask questions about nonsense, but my question regarding my health that I am very worried about gets removed? (from the health section???) I dont want to sue but would like an explanation for this, and how do I have them rectifie this mistake and put the question put back? Thanks
When someone asks a health related question on yahoo, why does everyone always reply "Go to the ER!"? I've been noticing this a lot. When someone asks a health question, the reply always is 75% of the time, "You need to go to the ER now!", or, "You are going to die!" Why is this?
Do any of you women in yahoo answers think there are perverts reading womens health? i keep thinking there are perverts and sex offenders in the womens health section reading what we ask or reply to...it's not a big deal really lol im just saying you know how guys are?! they probly find this interesting! but i just worry about the real perverts like sickos like sex offenders in here!
Poll:Would the Yahoo health Department Ban me from P&S for bitting the head off this bat? There may not be a Yahoo health Department but they might make one just for this kinda thing..

Need info ASAP: May have been on Yahoo Health news end of Oct.. See details.? Did anyone see on Yahoo news or in their paper or on TV about the artificial material used for heart shunts breaking off into the arteries and causing further damage? I looked at various health Web sites and couldn't find anything. Have a close friend (he's 55) who just suffered a heart attack this past weekend. His cardiologists want to perform this procedure on him. Would like reassurance it's safe and not just being tested. Thanks for all the help. Does anyone have specifics if the artificial material does break loose?
Why do some on Yahoo Answers blame the Republicans for health care not being passed by now? Are they too brain dead to realize it is blue dog and pro-life Democrats that are holding up passage?
Why did Yahoo Answers strip me of my mental health badge, I mean I have another but? Does this mean I should contribute at least 15 minutes a day towards helping the mentally ill on Yahoo Answers?
Why do they put men's health right next to mental health here on Yahoo Answers? Is it because they both begin with M, or because basically all men are known to be mental?
Have You Visited Yahoo Health? Is there any way to ask a question or post an article on Yahoo Health? I see only Articles and Posted Questions but don't find any link or option for posting my article or question. Thanks!

Have you been scammed a health ad on Yahoo? I read an ad that seemed to be from Sydney. It was for alternative tablets for weight loss and the two had to be taken together. The ad seemed okay so I purchased the trial tabs. The order was from Panama and I thought well if I don't get them i will only have wasted 25 dollars I did get them and all was well. Until I noticed that my card must have been intercepted and in the last 15 days I have had 4 alien charges along with associated bank charges from Panama in excess of $395.00

why do people use yahoo answers for important emergency health issues instead of going to the hospital? i mean.. how many times do i have to see these... or even more so "am i pregnant?" why dont people use common sence? get a pregnancy test, call your doctor. why do people think we can tell you what your problem is when maybe 15% of the time someone could be right? why play with your health people? if i wanted your spelling lesson poster number one i would have asked for it. you must be god... u act like you have never made a mistake before. *throws your stone back at you and hits you in the back of your head* i am more so talking about ADULTS who ask if they are pregnant because they have been TTC. also ADULTS who are looking for emergency information "plz i need this quick... why is my foot falling off"

I asked an important question about my health and I see it was placed in yahoo singapore? There I won't get an answer this week or year.Thanx yahoo!
How do I contact Yahoo about giving them an idea to improve this site and revolutionize the health industry.? I would like to contact yahoo about a way we can all use this site to solve complex health answers around the world. The way I have always seen it is that the internet is a calculator of life. If we all had a way to work together to imput values of vegetables, food and the nutrients in them we could turn code into a health calculator. Eg: If someone had leukemia they could type in the disease and the database would associate a dietary list of the nutrients that could trigger a remission. The world needs to work together to create the values of each food, so the diseased person can target in on particular foods. The value is generated by an average imput. So anyone can enter the average level of each nutrient per weight of the food. User could potentaly record thier diet and blood type so it even tells to what to avoid and what you have a higher chance of contracting. By the end of the year one could see how much vitamin C they consumed. So it's like an online personal nature path. I lost my 54 year old father to leukemia in october of 2004. I will find a way to use technology and the internet to cure diseases. In everything we to computers are used to figure out answers. Why would they not be a major advance to the medical industry. There has just never been a good idea come along. Would you like to see yahoo do something like this? The largest thing we need answers to in the world today is how to cure diseases!
What is a good Online Resource for latest health news? I am looking for a website that has the latest health research news put out daily in a nice concise manner. I am going to be a resident MD soon and would like to keep updated daily on new findings without having to search through sites like (ovid, uptodate, pubmed, etc)... i guess i am looking for a quick and easy daily update to the latest news that is more in depth than yahoo health or google health but less in depth than a pub med article. Thanks!
Am I The Only Vegan On Yahoo That Became Vegan Only For Health And Not For Any Political Reasons? Don't get me wrong,I support all of you.I'm only asking this out of curiosity. Ok V.You win best answer for making me smile:-)
Is Yahoo Questions and Answers an appropriate place to ask personal health questions? WHY, may I ask would you ask a group of people a question who have never seen you, know nothing about your age or habits, etc. Did seeing a doctor ever occur to you?? I asked this question because, in my not so humble opinion, I see a lot of potentionally dangerous health situations being asked in Q&A, with some pretty dittzy suggestions be offered as "cures". Michael, way too much sugar or coffee or something today for you. I'm referring ONLY to PERSONAL HEALTH issues. Not dating, food recipes, opinions about whether or not you dress in mama's undies, only personal health issues.
Does Yahoo Answer provide Health insurance for every individual in here? Yahoo could be sometimes traumatizing.

Yahoo questions should not be used for the diagnosis of ones health issues? I would like to clarify something! Genital warts DO NOT cause cancer. I have seen people answering questions misinforming young people about their bodies. Yes genital warts is a HPV. SOME (not alot) of HPV's (of which there are hundreds) are linked to cervical cancer. Genital Warts is actually a low risk HPV and isn't related to cancer. The majority of sexually active people have strains of HPV which their body gets rid of, usually without the person even knowing they've had it. Another thing, condoms DO NOT protect you from catching a HPV. In that matter not all HPVs are sexually transmitted. So please, when someone asks a question regarding their health can we not just suggest they see a doctor?!
Can someone help me find a Yahoo featured article about common health risks found in the kitchen? The article was either on May 7th, 8th, or May 9th of 2007.

Why do people get on yahoo questions to find out what illness, or health problem they have?? I am sorry but some people have some serious issues like real bad depression, and they get on here for advice. I just tell them to go to the DR or get professional help. What do you do?
Who thinks Yahoo should post some penis info before you even try to ask a question in the mens health section? i mean seriously, if yahoo posted some sort of real information to people before they even try to ask some penis question than like 99% of these questions would be automatically answered
Should Yahoo Answers Medicine/Health answerers be given a NHS subsidy? I mean- there's so many serious health issues that people ask about without first referring to their local doctor- it's absurd. If you're sick or feel unwell or notice anything wrong/abnormal/sore/leaking/falling off- for the love of God- see a blimmin' doctor! Better safe than sorry and you'll get a bit of exercise too!
how do you delete the health/weather news yahoo sends you? i've gota lot of health and weather news and i really don't want to get the news.help please!!

who are yahoo health-other answerers? Are most who answer questions in the health-other section ignorant people offering worthless answers? And do they usually offer degrading opinions even when they have no experience with the subject? If dumb mean people who spend their valuable time making other people's lives worse were valuable, at all, would the internet be a gold mine?
would it be a bad habit to trust your health to yahoo answers? not like, you know, SEVERE health problems or anything, but yeah, like minor to medium health questions?
What is the purpose (especially in Religion and Spirtuality, and Mental Health) of Yahoo!Answers? The purpose Y!As serves is not as it was intended to be. Many are here to harass others (in R&S especially), many are here to have their beliefs confirmed (especially evolutionists), and many are here for fun. The real nature of this forum has been so prevalent that most now believe that it is as intended. Others may disagree, but I believe that it was intended to answer people's questions. Many need support of some kind, many need advice, many need practical solutions, but in reality those who seek such answers are the minority, though most need such answers. For me, now, it serves 2 purposes: (1) for practical issues, and (2) it is an exercise in self-discipline. For my most recent Qs I have not read the As. This is because I need to learn to care less what people think. That is my primary purpose. If I am booted off for this, that’s fine, because that means that it has very little purpose for me. I can get practical answers elsewhere. I will not likely see the answers to this Q.

There have pop-ups in the yahoo health section-especially in one particualr area? The message goes across the srceen and reads something along the lines of " Would you like to take an important survey". Just wondering if anyone else has seen this, and if there is anything I can do about it...the popup just seems suspicious...
Is Yahoo Q/A the proper forum for asking serious questions about health and diseases? I have been very surprised at the types of question that are asked on Y/A regarding serious health issues. As a health professional, what is more disturbing is misinformation that is given, in the way of an answer, that can be very dangerous. These questions/answers can be more dangerous then hurting someone’s feelings. What do you think, is this the right forum for these types of questions? Should these questions be allowed and/or should these types of questions or misguided answers warrant a violation.
