Feeling Full?

Nearly everyone has had indigestion at one time. It's a feeling of discomfort in your upper abdomen that often occurs during or right after eating. It may feel like heat, burning, pain, or feeling full. Behavioral changes and over the counter medications may help relieve indigestion. Read more about the causes, prevention, and treatment strategies for indigestion.

Ear Infections: Reading the Signs

Ear infections, also called otitis media, affect three out of four children by their third birthday. Ear infections happen when the tubes inside the ears become clogged with fluid and mucus. If your child isn't old enough to say, "My ear hurts," here are symptoms to look for:
  • Tugging at ears
  • Crying more than usual
  • Fluid draining from the ear
  • Trouble sleeping
  • Balance difficulties
  • Hearing problems

Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common orthopedic foot complaints. The plantar fascia is the thick tissue on the bottom of the foot that creates the arch of the foot. Pain or stiffness can make walking more difficult. Find out more about prevention and treatment.

Vegetables and Turkey Stir-Fry

Vegetable and Turkey Stir-Fry is a great way to use up leftover turkey.
