I'm 19 and I've noticed my head feels hot in the mornings and evenings, but I don't have a fever. My temperature usually reads between 97.6 and 98.5, but I often get headaches in the evening and sometimes lose my appetite. What could be causing these symptoms?

What is the healthiest sleeping position?

Every individual is different, there is no "one-size-fits-all" position to sleep. One needs to follow what works for their body and sleep needs. Sleeping on left side curling your legs and placing a pillow in between your knees is good for low back, during pregnancy, reduces snoring and acid reflux. Lying on stomach is good for snoring and sleep apnea. Sleeping flat on your back protects the spine, relieves hip and knee pain.
