Summer is almost here, and that means trips to the beach, to theme parks, and...to the hospital. Over 20 kids a day go straight from the amusement park to the emergency room, and an injuries specialist will tell us why. Then, new research shows that the threat of an STD scares young women more than the threat of cancer. We'll find out what that means for the fight against HPV. Last, we'll hear about the hurts-so-good power of stinging nettles.

Rebecca B. Perkins, Assistant Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Boston University Medical Center
