How to Fix a Pulled Groin
It's one of the most uncomfortable moments you can have in the gym: An awkward landing, a pop, and the painful sensation that prevents you from squatting, running, and even walking normally. You've strained your groin — but do you really understand how or why you'll want to ice around your junk for the foreseeable future?

DeGraff Memorial Hospital opens new $7.8 million emergency department
Kaleida Health officials said Tuesday that they hope the opening of a new $7.8 million emergency department will relieve local skepticism about the future of DeGraff Memorial Hospital. After 13 months of construction, the 10,000-square-foot, 17-room department will open to patients at 7 a.m. Thursday at the North Tonawanda medical facility.

"We all know it hasn't been the easiest transition, but I do think in time it will be proven to be better, and great for all of our community," Kaleida President and CEO Jody L.

I think in the long run, it'll … [Read more...] about DeGraff Memorial Hospital opens new $7.8 million emergency department
