Really NEED help! 2nd time posting! Anti-bark spray collar not spraying. Why?
My dog has recently begun to howl like crazy. If I don't find someway to make her be quiet at night, my dad will "get rid of her." So I purchased an anti-barking collar that defers the dog from making noise by spraying her w/ this harmless stuff. It's suppose to work for howling as well. Problem is that it's not spraying her. Yes, she's pretty fluffy. But she can be loud and the sprayer isn't even hitting her fur or doing anything it's suppose to. I tried it myself (by giving multiple loud shouts & barks into the device), & nothing happened. The only time it seemed to spray was when you blew really hard into the device, which really doesn't help anything.Does anyone know what's wrong w/ it? It's a petsafe deluxe kind, & it isn't one of those cheap ones either. & I made sure it's on as well when using it. Some people may say her fur may be the problem. However, the device said that you can put a bandana over the fur. But this is done so that the spray will actually hit her chin (& not for the sake of the device to pick up the sound & vibrations). & that still doesn't explain why it didn't work for me. Any ideas as to what is going on?Also, do you know if those ultra high pitch frequency boxes work on loud animals? Or is there anything else that's actually effective that you can recommend. Just FYI, my dog is not a small dog (she's like medium husky or German Shepard size).
Why does the throat hurt sometimes when you start to sing with your natural voice and especially when you go high in pitch?
Frequently, people don’t breathe as deeeply when they speak, as they do when they sing. This leads to the individual to actually put pressure on the windpipe as they try to push a lot of air through a closed throat, which is commonly known as belting. The first thing I tell any singer is, if the throat hurts or feels tired, stop singing at once!!! Don’t even try to talk until your throat returns to normal, & absolutely do not whisper!!!Once you’ve averted vocal damage, you must change how you breathe, especially while singing. To breathe properly, you want to inflate the belly all the way when you breathe in, & then let the air out slowly on the outbreath. The first time you attempt this, breathe out all the way until your lungs are completely empty. When you breathe in again, your belly will fill up with air, while your chest won’t move much, if at all. Always take air in through both your mouth & nose when you sing, so you feel a little coolness in the back of your throat, & take a full breath in every time. The higher you go, the more air you need, so deflate your abdomen more slowly on the lower notes, so you have enough air for higher pitches. Meanwhile, the back of your throat should stay open, like you’re yawning. This should correct your problem.
What did the the person who gave the following quote say "stings"?
A man born in the 1800s who is credited with many witty sayings and died fifty years ago (1956) once said, "We must respect the other fellow's religion, but only in the sense and to the extent that we respect his theory that his wife is beautiful and his children smart." He had another quote. He said one thing is easy to bear but something else stings. What did he say stings?
Why does my husbands penis get red and burn during/after sex?
O.k. So here's the deal. We have been married for almost 7 years and we both were virgins before we met so there's no possible way its an STD.. We don't use condom, never have. I'm on the pill.. The past couple of months we have had this problem and it seems to only be getting worse.. After we have sex his penis is red and irritated (almost looks like little cuts are present as well) on the side and bottom of his penis below his head. We thought that maybe it was dry skin or that I wasn't well lubricated enough so we started using lubricants but it hasn't helped.. If anything it's getting worse because the past two times we've tried to have sex as soon as he starts to "go" he has to pull out because it's burning and he has to go wash off and it's all red and painful again.. I have run a UA and I don't have any urinary tract or yeast infections present to be giving to him.. We don't have any insurance and therefore a doctor is not an option. We just can't afford it.. Please somebody help! :*( (P.S. He is circumcised..)
Why do I get hives during an asthma attack? What is going on? Bipolar and Asthma?
The first answer you got was most likely a spammer. There are tons of them on this site. And they just post their links. They are not really trying to answer anything. Hives are very common, but despite being common not that well understood. Although they can be annoying, they usually resolve on their own over a period of weeks, and are rarely medically serious. Some hives are caused by allergies to such things as foods, medications, and insect stings, but the large majority of cases are not allergic, and no specific cause for them is ever found. http://www.medicinenet.com/hives/article... http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/chronic... Screaming could certainly cause some strain on your vocal cords and can affect your voice and your throat. Long term damage can be caused by that sort of thing. What is happening to you may be related to anxiety or panic attack. You really need to talk to a good doctor about all of your symptoms. Start keeping a record of when these things happen - the time, what brought it on, what you had eaten, what you were doing, and so on, so that you have some real data to bring to the doctor.
Why do my eyes water excessively after watching TV or using my cell phone for some time?
It's muscle fatigue from two separate sources.Firstly, if your eyes are focussed and unmoving, the intraocular muscles become strained, making your eyes hurt, directly.Secondly, if you are slouched your trapezius muscle is in an overlenghtened position for an extended time and if you are bending your head down it is lengthened even further.This injury (RSI) causes pain to refer into your eyes.So it's a good idea to close your eyes and stretch every twenty minutes or so when you're engaged in screen based activity.
