How many days of constipation before seeing a doctor?

Constipation states yesterday. Much more than I've ever been. Very little made its way out. Today absolutely nothing has come out. How long should I go before seeing a doctor?

I should also note that the problem isn't getting it to move, but getting it out the exit. It feels too small. My urine is also very orange. I guess I have to drink more.

When should I make an appointment with my GI doctor? It will probably take three days to get in.

How long does it take to get braces removed?

I am NOT asking how long do you keep braces on before you remove them. When you go to your appointment to get them off, how long does it take?

How long does it take for a tooth extraction area to heal?

I am getting 4 molars pulled (not wisdom teeth) to be able to get braces.
How long should I wait after my extraction to make an appointment with my orthodontist for spacers?

PLUSSSSS: What is it like getting them pulled? Does it hurt terribly afterwards? Do they just numb? Or do they put you to sleep? I'm so scared. Please answer my questions honestly.

how can you tell the difference between pneumonia and a cold flu and cough?

how long does it take to progress into something serious. like say you get sick start coughing and think you are sick then you make an appointment to see a doctor in a week. can the pneumonia spread super fast and kill you? i mean if you are elderly and you are trying to see a doctor as fast as you can but say you cant get in for a week. or you dont think it is serious... until it is very developed. can it develop in a week?

So, a month ago or so I slammed my finger in a car door and it bruised and from the bottom of the cuticle it chipped and its grown out a lot since then. But the tip looks really gross and bad. And what I wanna know is how long will it take to heal? And, I have an appointment to get my nails done next week for a wedding. Can they still do the acrylic fake nails with my finger in this shape?

OMG…I feel like such an idiot….What can I do?

Okay...yesterday I was passing through the mall because I had an appointment nearby. I was stopped by a guy at a stand from Seacret. He was kinda pushy and I'm obviously taken in easily. He buffed my nail and it looked nice. I told him I'd take the nail kit (turned out to be 49.99). He then said they give there customers a free treatment. So I went through the dead sea salt hand washing thing. I decided to buy the mud mask for the face which is supposed to do the same thing for the face instead of the body. That is b/c he told me it would make my acne go away and the scars. I believed every word he said. He also gave me a mud soap bar. I asked him could I get a refund if it didn't work. He said yes. Well, I wound up buying 200 dollars worth of products. He printed out two receipts, stapled them together, and thanked me. Well, I got home and did some research and it turns out they have been scamming ppl for awhile. I read one of the reviews and it said they stamped a no refund stamp on the back. I noticed the guy stamping something on it buy he mentioned something about my warranty for the nail buff. I didn't think to much of it. I just looked at my reciept and on the bottom of the 2nd one there's a little stamp that says no refunds. He lied to me. I feel sooo stupid. What can I do? Or is my money gone?
