Problem: Article: every four to six hours. You don't have to do this immediately as soon as four hours have passed, but try not to let it go for longer than six. Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is an extremely rare but potentially fatal consequence of leaving a tampon in for too long. If you've accidentally left a tampon in for more than eight hours and you're suddenly experiencing a high fever, a sudden rash, or vomiting, pull out the tampon and get medical help immediately. . Removing a tampon might seem painful, but it is not. Take a few deep breaths, loosen up, and remember that it's maybe going to be uncomfortable but not painful. . You might feel some slight friction from the cotton fibers as the tampon comes out, but it shouldn't be that painful.  If you're queasy at the thought of grabbing the string with your bare fingers, do it with a square of toilet paper. If you do feel some catching and resistance as you pull the tampon out, it's probably because it's dry. Switch to a lighter absorbency to solve the problem. If it's too dry, use some water so that it does not stick. Some tampons are specifically designed to be flushable, so they spread apart and move easily through the pipes. However, if you're dealing with a low-flow toilet, a septic tank arrangement, or you know there have been problems with clogging in the past, it's safest to just wrap it in a wad of toilet paper and throw it away.
Summary: Change out your tampon Relax Slowly tug the string at the end of the tampon Dispose of the tampon.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Compensatory vision therapy focuses on stimulating the brain area involved in vision. It includes training with prisms, scanning, and visual field awareness systems. The movement of images from a non-seeing site to a seeing-site helps adapt the visual field and the associated brain area, improving vision. The goal of restorative vision therapy is to stimulate the various neural connections involved in vision within brain. It includes many specific components for each type of vision impairment that occurs after stroke. It focuses particularly on the point of the eye which has the highest amount of neuronal connections. This therapy has the highest level of recovery potential. Prisms are used to correct different types of visual problems. The kind of prism and their placement may vary, depending upon the presenting signs and symptoms. For example:  In the case of double vision, the prism is placed on a glass lens to realign the abnormal positioning of the eye's gaze. In the case of visual neglect, an individual with visual neglect on the left side of his visual field would use a prism that can mirror items on his left side, to the right side of his visual field. Low vision aids are designed to help the partially sighted population. They are divided into three categories, including optical aids (hand held magnifiers, stand magnifiers, telescopes), non optical aids (enlarged prints, high intensity lamps, high contrast objects, microfiche readers), and electronic low vision aids (closed circuit TV, opaque projectors, slide projection). All of these things can greatly help your vision. Some other aids are tactile visual aids, auditory vision, spelled speech, and direct stimulation of visual cortex. Surgery is usually not an option to solve post stroke related visual problems, since the cause is not a physical trauma to the eye. However, in some instances. surgery can be recommended to correct double vision. Eye muscle surgery is usually helpful for cases of double vision caused by the narrowing of the eyes.  The procedure can help in re-positioning of the eyes. The decision to undergo surgery should be done with an extensive assessment of the benefits and the possible risks.

SUMMARY: Check out compensatory vision therapy. Try restorative vision therapy. Look into the use of prisms. Invest in a low vision aid. Consider eye muscle surgery.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Rejection is always a possibility when you put yourself out there. You will not like everyone you meet and vice versa.  If rejection happens, have a healthy outlook. A person may decline your invitation for many reasons.  A person may be too busy to hang out or have prior commitments. If someone does reject you, it is not because something is wrong with you.  Maybe the two of you were not a good fit. Be proud of yourself for trying to make friends and try to learn something from the experience. Keep trying to befriend the same acquaintance. Try to make plans with someone a couple of times before giving up.. The only time you should give up sooner is if you're given a clear indication that your goodwill isn't wanted. Keep trying to make friends with other people. Even if one person rejects your friendship completely, that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with you. After you've given up on one person, continue trying to make friends out of your other acquaintances. Making new friends is exciting and scary at the same time. Try different strategies to meet new people. The hardest part is actually going to that first group meeting and getting out of the house. It is okay to be nervous, just push through your feelings and go.. There will be times when you look silly, are embarrassed, or feel awkward.  Some interactions will go really well and others will not.  All of that is perfectly fine, and it is not a big deal. Social media is great in a lot of ways, but oftentimes, it acts as a crutch that prevents people from pushing themselves into real life social situations. When you feel lonely, turn off your computer and head out, call up a friend, or try to meet with an acquaintance. You must get out of the house to meet people and form friendships. Social media websites offer the greatest benefit when they keep you more connected to your friends. If your social media accounts only give you an excuse to avoid real, meaningful contact with people, they're doing more harm than good. Forming friendships is a process. Both you and the other person must put in time and effort. It usually takes 6 to 8 significant interactions for people to come friends, and it may take years before you feel as if you can really confide in another person. Most adults have a fairly small social circle. Even when you've had some success, you may only be close with two or three different friends.  You may have different friends to meet different needs in your life.  Some friends are for regular happy hour or lunches, while you may go hiking with another friend. Working on a couple of close friendships or gathering a huge circle of casual friends are both options. Do whatever makes you happy. Keep in touch with your old friends and continually work on your relationship with any new friends you make. If you have hung out with someone and had a good time, invite them out again and keep in touch.  Some friendships will take more time to grow than others.  Some of your new friendships may start out great and then burn out.  This is completely normal. Try to schedule regular times to meet with your friends. If both of you are able to meet each Friday for an hour, go for it. For friends who are a bit busier, set aside at least one regular time to meet each month, like each second Sunday afternoon or every third Thursday evening.
Summary:
Try not to take rejection personally. Be brave. Stop soothing yourself with social media. Maintain a realistic attitude. Value your friends.
