My question is, why do they use a photo at all on a general article? If you see something in the paper about a new treatment for another...
I've only taken topical steroids, but the experience isn't good. Beclometasone, an asthma med, reduces my function by maybe 20%; a steroid nasal...
It sounds astronomical in the UK, but average graduate salaries are up to three times higher in the US. There are numerous reasons for this, but...
This has been talked about for years, hasn't it. I remember reading (I think in the 90s?) about theories that the burning in our muscles after...
