Answer: What young people see in the media, ads, TV shows, movies, magazines, internet, music videos, or what you hear from peers can make it seem as if more teens use drugs than actually do. Also, if someone knows one or two people who use drugs, he/she may assume others use drugs too.

Hope this helps (:

Linda notices that she has genital warts and fears they will eventually develop in her throat. Which is the best course of actio
alexandr1967 [171]
Genital warts are the most common viral sexually transmitted infection (STI). They are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV) which can be passed on during sexual contact. Not everyone who has the virus develops genital warts. For most people, including those who have visible warts, the virus will be cleared from the body over time. It is rare for genital warts to cause any long-term health problems.
